This chapter is all about how you can't control your anger. It's all about making sure that you don't let your anger get the better of you. This is the first time that you've ever had to do this, and it's a lot of work. You've got to get used to it, says the narrator, because you're going to have to do it a lot more often in the future. He tells us that men are usually pretty simple, and that's how you'll be able to get over the hump with this guy. The narrator says that he's pretty sure that this guy has a "sadistic side" , which is why he doesn't like to be around other men. He says that if you work hard enough on him, he'll eventually get over his hump.
