he is a liar who has broken his promise.

And the person who was just a friend is...
suddenly the only person you can ever imagine yourself with.

Anger and Danger are intimately intertwined.
An angry person is a dangerous person,
whether that person crosses our path
or whether the angry person is ourself.

we tend to exhibit anger as well as fear.
We look for someone to blame for the dangerous situation,
and direct our anger toward them.
