My BF is Angrier

In general, my BF (boyfriend) is very angry and explosive when too much goes wrong. He has taught me something no one has ever been able to teach me - how to shut my mouth.
You just don't jump into one of his angry escapades.
Sometimes things go flying across the room. You don't try to passify him either - you just have to let him go.
Now, I was angry in the same way (once) but I put my improvement on handling myself down to maturity.
I was only angry like that til I hit my 40s. I stopped throwing things when I was in my 30s. I stopped freaking out in people's faces in my 20s.
So where does that leave my BF?
He really is a pi*ser but I love him. And I do value the lesson in shutting up. My mother says to tell him she says thank you.
