Angry tears
I have a mini obs, my wife got angry (not specifically at me) and she started ranting and cursing nonsense, the rest just listened without getting angry, but trying to reason with her, at one point she started crying, only tears started to gather and moistening around her eyes with the random tear down her cheeks. I didn't even try to approach her, as she would not take it positive, three others were present, she ended up going to our room and the rest stayed a little longer in the living room.

Re: Angry tears
Nicely done, giving her space again. Anyone who tried to wipe her tears at that point might have lost a finger!
It's emotionally exhausting trying not to cry when feeling angry, frustrated, and misunderstood. And when you fail to hold the tears back, it just amplifies the frustration. I hope she felt better after retreating and taking a moment for herself.

Re: Angry tears
I used to get angry tears on occasion when I was in a real rage. Not so much anymore. Probably a good call on your part, though.

Re: Angry tears
I kind of know how she was feeling. I get angry tears most of the time when I'm really in a rage. Its good that you gave her some space to cool down. Were there any more tears after she calmed down?

No, actually she is back to her usual intellectual mode.

Re: Angry tears
If I am so angry I'm crying, I'm liable to hurt myself.

My wife is a very passional person but she is also extremely rational. I see in your case it's better not to give you too much space, you have to be taken care of so you don't hurt yourself.
