Why when we are mad do we tend to say things we don't mean? Why do we then apologize for it later? And why don't we just think about the situation before it goes too far?

I personaly think when we get upset it has alot to do with our patiantce. Angry people have a short fuse and dont know how to stop when they start. alot of times i thik it has to deal with when they were yuonger and how they delt with situations or how they saw situations being delt.

It all has to do with a persons patience level. The less patinece you have the more things get to you. When your mad and angry you don't think straight your judgement and train of thought is all jacked up. The reason you apoligize for it later is because you know what you did or said was wrong and you really didn't mean it. Anger always tends to bring the worst out of people.

Emotions can sometimes run high off of adrenalin, in certain cases, which can cloud your thought process without you even realizing it. Some people never think before they speak, so who really cares what they have to say, and I know that I have been so mad I have thought about what i was going to say, but when it came out, my body language said more than the words them self. We all deal with anger in different ways, so just over look and forgive the ignorance!!!!!
theres a reason why people use the expression "blinded by anger". It's been a fact from the dawn of man that people don't think clearly when they're angry. i like to compare angry people with drunk people. they both say and do things they regret, being drunk just gives you the excuse.

Most people just talk befor they think like an involintary action like breathing. Then if you say something you regreat you will have to try to take it back and thats not easy.

because people dont think before they speak when mad. your heart and mind are going really fast and you just dont care. sometimes they mean it sometimes they dont. it depends on the person. we apologize later because most of the time we have calmed down and are thinking clear. then you feel bad about what you said and then mad at yourself. i think of it before i go to far but sometimes you just cant stop even if you try to.

ive been there done that. once uve said something ignorant no matter how hard you try it will never be forgotten. its a hell of alot easier to ask permission than be forgiven.

I think most of the people in the world get it honestly from their parents. The older generation used a tone or words to try to get their kids to learn not to. And as they have kids it transfers over to them. The only problem to that is that the longer it is continued to use this harsh violent language eventually it becomes normal and the meaning is lost.

People get mad and say stuff they dont mean because its out of anger and they dont mean what they say all the time but people just want to make the other person even more mad than they are so why not say anything rude and cruel to piss them off.

it seems to be human nature to react before thinking. to me this is a non issue because we do apoligise later. the reason we apoligise is because we know we were wrong and we could of handled it much better than what we did in the first place

I say things alot before thinking about them thats just the way it is. If you talk before you think it is the way you do it.

I say things that i dont mean to say alot when im mad you just dont think about it beacuse your focased on what your mad about that you dont think before you talk.

GOOD QUESTION! i tend to say a lot of mean tings to my girlfriend when I'm upset. i think the reason being, is because we think by saying something mean and horrible will make us feel better about ourselves but at the time don't think about the other person's feelings til after we cool down and think back on what we said to them.
When people get mad their sense of reasoning goes out the window when the settle down and the adrenalin calms down they come to and apologize.

sometimes you jus get pissed and need to blow off some steam. when that happens things get said that dont mean to. but shit happens so get over it.
Do we really say things we don't mean or are we really saying what we really feel?
--R.J. Rowland--
Some people get mad and lose control,and when they do lose control,they say things that hurt the other person. The things that hurt the most is the things that are true. Because the person is mad also make them say things that are not true,but if the person really likes you,they will tell that person they are sorry.
When I’m mad I always watch what I say. I can’t stand when people don’t. When your mad and you start running your mouth you can say a lot of damaging things to someone. Even if you don’t mean them. You still said them and that person may never forget it. People apologize because “they don’t mean it.” When it shouldn’t have been said in the first place. Its all about control. Learn to control what comes out of your mouth and you wouldn’t be hurting anyone’s feelings when you don’t mean too.
-Heather Alber
I think that when you get mad you become a person you are not. So you lose control and you only think about the moment and not the effect you will have on people after its all said and done. I think that sometimes its good to lose your cool once in a while because you get whats off your chest, then you can come together and talk about it.
