The only explanation is that Brad's personality if interspective, he boils inside, keeps to himself, has enormous self-controls. BUT when his buttons gets pushed LOOKOUT!! Explosive and mean!!
The best way to describe it ~~ "Still Waters Run Deep"! JMOO
ETASK~ Who here knows guys or gals like that?? Different persona outside of home?? Reminds me of that song "What Goes On Behind Closed Doors" Charlie Rich song I think
So maybe BC didn't yell back in front of the friends and neighbors BUT he had an affair with HM, the bosses wife (kick in the azz to the boss) a fling with Ms. France.....um, think I would rather have my spouse shout back, argue and get it over with. These disrespectful affairs and behavior HURT way way more and much much longer than a verbal arguement.
