I will not stand for being called a b****, even if I act like it occasionally. Maybe it was the way I was raised but it's the one thing that I cannot deal with. Any thoughts on this? How do I fix this problem? His swearing problem has gotten worse ever since he started working in construction...go figure. It REALLY REALLY PISSES ME OFF Reply to this Question Share |

other than his swearing this boy sounds near perfect. have you talked to him about his swearing? he sounds like the kind of guy who would listen to you and try to stop. maybe to motivate him, everytime he doesnt swear when angry you can reward him, with a kiss or whatever you wanted.
also swearing at everything and then being completely back to normal...that sounds alittle off. how often does he do this? if it's alot i really reccomend talking to him about it.
if he doesnt atleast try and stop swearing(at least when you are around) then break up with him if it annoys you so much, or just try to learn and accept and love him despite his flaw.
good luck!
