My boyfriend is very sensitive...Whenever I get annoyed at him, he gets mad at me for being annoyed and I end up being the one to apologize!..I am afraid to say anything to him about it though, because then he will just get mad! What do I do?..

The deeper issue is why are you always getting annoyed with him, after all that's what seems to trigger his anger and while he should be able to manage his emotions to the point of not getting upset over your annoyances, it is a two way street. The final solution of course is to talk it out when there are no hard feelings clouding things up...

hmmm - you have a right to get annoyed i.e righteous anger; equally if you're been unreasonable then you should expect to apologise...
That said it's unlikely you're always being unreasonable right? so the law of averages seems to argue that your Boyf is being controlling here...
..
Sometimes people can't take anger; they just see the mad as bad, and miss the point...
..
It maybe next time things go bad, you are going to have to count to ten and walk away til you cool down, then with a cool head sit the Boyf down and explain matter of factly what happened and why you were offended...
If he's simply anger-phobic then he should respect your points and apologise when wrong...

I have a friend whose boyfriend is like that too. This guy probably has some weird issues from his parents getting angry at him. You don't have to apologize for your feelings. I guess you guys just need to learn a way to communicate where you can express yourself without him crying...

What do you mean by over sensitive...I'm a little more sensitive than some...I cry, I own my feelings, and I feel hurt if someone says something mean, but If he's unable to own responsibility for feelings toward him then, he might be using whininess to control the relationship...That being said, maybe you should talk to him about it...Rarely is communication a bad thing...
