Behavior Changes With Family: We're getting along less well with our own people, but our behavior with strangers remains quite polite. Let's explain why and how this change occurs.

Have you ever noticed that some people get angry at every little thing with their own family members, but get along so easily with outsiders? It seems strange at first glance, but in most cases, there's a deeper reason behind it: some weakness or suppressed stress. Let us explain why this happens.

 

1 /6

Fights with loved ones happen more often because we have high expectations of them. We want them to understand, listen, and support us. When these expectations are shattered, even small things seem big. This leads to increased anger directed at family members.

2 /6

On the other hand, people tend to keep themselves under control around strangers. There's no emotional baggage. They don't judge us, nor do we have high expectations of them. Therefore, the outer facade is always soft and composed.

3 /6

 

It's possible that a person is experiencing some internal stress. The pressures, responsibilities, and fatigue of a day are sometimes felt first by loved ones. This is because a person may display strength outside but then collapse at home.

4 /6

 

Some people can't express their inner anxieties in words. They can't express what's bothering them. In such situations, anxiety can turn into irritability, and the people closest to them are the first to be affected.

5 /6

 

Mental health can also be a major factor. Overthinking, anxiety, or depression can also cause a person to create distance in relationships, even if they don't want to. People assume they're acting out, but they're actually struggling internally.

6 /6

 

Sometimes, certain childhood experiences play a role in this behavior. If someone has struggled for attention or understanding in the past, they may become more vulnerable and angry in close relationships as they grow older. This pattern repeats itself.
