DEAR CR-ABBY:
I am a 16-year-old girl, and I'm pretty popular in my high school. I'm blessed to have several close friends, and we always have a great time together. My grades are good, and I get along well with my mom, dad and little brother. So what's the problem, you're probably wondering.
I had an argument with my girlfriend "Amber" recently. It was over a "guy issue." I won't go into details because we did end up working it out, but Amber said something during the blowup that has me worried. She said that sometimes my anger gets out of control and concerns her. Two other girls who were with us at the time agreed with her. That floored me.
Cr-Abby, this is the first time I've heard about this. I mean, Mom sometimes calls me "Tammy Temper" -- and has accused me of "throwing fits." But my friends never called me on it. In the fight with Amber, she said my fists were clenched and she was afraid I might hit her. (I didn't think so.)
I don't want to scare people. I value my friends. I look forward to going to college and making new friends and having new experiences. I don't want to have a reputation as a hothead. Can you help me?

Dear Kiss Me Kate,
Steelers are going down girly!!!
Anyway, I know a few girls like you (married two of them) you have the nuclear bomb and you arent afraid to use it and others mindful of your ability to "go off" walk on egg shells around you but resent it.
You are not as well liked as you suggest, you are FEARED which is not the same thing.
Get a little help before these traits lock-in and you become some poor guys "ball and chain".
Cr-Abby
