#6 You Are Jumping to Conclusions
Maybe you found yourself thinking more than once that you could anticipate the thoughts and feelings of others, but you were obviously wrong. This is called, in a casual manner, “jumping to conclusions” and is a common trait of people with anger issues.
Acting in this manner is frequently an enabler of conflict, and it only snowballs from there. Nothing good can happen when you jump to conclusions.
This typically manifests as you thinking you know why somebody wanted to annoy you or ignore your demands without hearing their spoken justifications. Usually, the other person does not want to bother or upset you. Maybe they were busy, and that’s why they didn’t answer your calls. Take a deep breath and try to be aware that, in general, the world is not against you.

I’m separating from my significant other due to anger issues. We have been together for 15 years, we own a house, we have a dog, and we have a bunch of beautiful memories, but my anger has torn us apart. I know there is nothing I can do to save this relationship, but I would like to save my life and maybe our friendship.
I see a couple of items. The problem with this article is the 7 items stopped at ITEM 5.
I do realize that number5 is a real issue with me. Thank you for a very good but incomplete synopsis.
I found the others thank you for a complete synopsis. I do jump to conclusions and stay angry for extended times.

No. No practical replacement, many years off yet. Besides I love my OLD big cars with big engine.
