Something you've probably already noticed about people is that they're not entirely rational. Sometimes, their emotions flare up so much, and they start lashing out or spouting the most illogical opinions. Nobody's immune to this. But some folks struggle with their emotional intelligence so much that they take things way too far.
Internet user Brianna went viral online after asking women to share the most ridiculous, unhinged, and ludicrous reasons why men have ever gotten mad at them. Scroll down for their stories. A note of warning, though: they might make you so angry that you might lose a big chunk of your remaining faith in humanity.

Because I wanted back on my depression medicine. I was a POS for not trusting God to take it away. God did take it away when I left him.

Brianna's post on TikTok got a ton of attention online. It garnered 1.7 million views, 97.3k likes, 53.8k comments at the time of writing. Clearly, the sensitive topic was one that resonated with a lot of internet users.
Unfortunately, lots of people have to deal with individuals who struggle with their emotional intelligence every single day. The bad news is that far from everyone develops these skills naturally. The good news? You can learn to be more emotionally intelligent, just like any other skill.
In a nutshell, according to Verywell Mind, people with high emotional intelligence (abbreviated as EI or EQ) tend to be:
Self-aware
Empathetic
Perceptive
Expressive
Good at regulating their emotions
Able to stay motivated while working toward their goals
In possession of strong social and communication skills

Mine got mad at me this weekend because I have a tan line. Said it's because I've been outside working in the garden in my bathing suit to "show off" for the construction guys building a house next door. We live at the lake 🙄 also I'm 45 and have no desire to attract male attention at this point in life.
#5
He would get mad when he would find out that my paychecks we're higher than his. I had to pay for stuff when it was...I was young so please don't be mean. I live a totally different life now.
#6
While I was driving, I looked over my shoulder to change lanes. He immediately punched me in the face because I must have been looking at another guy. Then he made me turn down a gravel road and get out. I had to drop to my bare knees, ask for forgiveness and bark like a dog. If I had not finally escaped him, I wouldn't be here today.
Emotionally intelligent individuals are able to perceive, understand, and manage their own emotions, as well as those of others. These are all vital skills to have, both in your private and professional life.
If you want to improve your EQ, you should start by reflecting on your level of self-awareness. Try to get to grips with your emotions and understand how they impact your beliefs, behaviors, and the people around you.
Something else that can help you strengthen your emotional intelligence is practicing mindfulness techniques. In essence, this means becoming more present with both your thoughts and emotions. When upset at someone, you could, for example, try a deep breathing exercise and give yourself room to consider your strategy. It's a much wiser approach than lashing out at the other person.

If you decide to work with a therapist, they might suggest that you try cognitive behavioral therapy to improve your emotional regulation. Essentially, the mental health professional will teach you healthy coping mechanisms so you can handle difficult emotions.
Also, you can always enrol in social and emotional learning programs for adults so you can strengthen your empathy, identity, and communication skills.
Meanwhile, the Harvard Business Review urges people to recognize and name their emotions. Here are some questions to ask yourself:
What emotions are you feeling right now? Can you name them?
When in a stressful situation, what emotions typically arise?
How would you like to respond in these situations?
Can you stop to pause and reconsider your response?

Husband is mad right now seeking a divorce because my tone is not excited when I talk to him like when I talk to my daughter. I'm fighting cancer......

My ex husband got mad because I took my phone to the bathroom, said I must be cheating. Take a guess as to who the real cheater was.
On top of that, don't be scared of asking your colleagues, family, and friends for feedback on your emotional intelligence, empathy, and adaptability. This is easier said than done, but it's usually unbiased outsiders' perspectives that can help us grow as individuals.
What is the dumbest, most bizarre reason why anyone has ever gotten mad at you, Pandas? How did you react, and what was the fallout like? How would you rate your emotional intelligence? If you've got a moment, share your thoughts in the comments at the bottom of this post.

WILD story. Buckle up.I sent an ex a video of a kid ruining a wedding and told him "one of the many reasons I don't want kids" - something I had said to him since the very first date. This was a year later. He SNAPPED at me. Lost his s**t.Told me I was being ridiculous for hating children and now wanting them because women were put on this earth to be mothers. He told me I was selfish for not wanting kids (mind you, for the past year, he said he didn't want them either. He was lying thinking he could change me). When he realized I wasn't going to change my mind, he went insane.He told me if I just got pregnant and had the kid, he would raise it alone, and I wouldn't even need to be involved 🤯 like… what?!?? How traumatizing to the kid. (I still have the screenshots to prove it because it was the most insane thing I've ever heard).He told me I was a horrible person and would end up alone because women are meant to have kids and no one would marry a women who didn't.Well, I'm now happily married to someone who doesn't want kids either. We have a house full of pets and travel the world every few months 🩵

I had a bad accident, my entire right leg was destroyed. We were talking marriage and kids the week before, as in planning dates. I could hardly move, we lived on the second floor of our building and laundry was on the main. I asked him for two things- to pick up groceries because I couldn't drive, and to bring OUR laundry up from the main floor because I couldn't do stairs. He told me to get a backpack and make a lot of little trips up and down the stairs on my back with our clothes and to figure out a way to get groceries, that he didn't have time cause he worked six hours per day, was stressed, and that I was a weak and embarrassing person now. He broke up with me that night, saying we would get back together when I was healed from my injury because he didn't have the time then told everyone my injury was fake and I was a d**g a**ict for taking by Advil. Long story short, a year and a half later, I just had my fourth surgery for it, am writing a book about a**sive relationships, he is broke, fired, alone, and miserable with not one friend and a multitude of health issues. Karma is a mirror.
