No there's nothing wrong with you, i think it's hard to get mad at someone you care about, when you care about someone it's more easier to forgive than it is to be mad, it breaks my heart to be mad at someone I care about,

There is nothing wrong in it. You cant show your anger to a stranger on the pavement. But you can control your anger and help your loved ones to help you. Remember give respect and take respect.

There is nothing wrong with you. Maybe you are just feeling a little sensitive. Make sure to try and apologize to the people you got mad at. When you feel calm. And explain what is going on for you.

Its probably because you dont want to hurt their feelings and ruin the relationship. But you need to stand up and tell them even though at the end you may feel bad and have alot of guilt

No, of course not! It is just hard for some people to feel angry at the ones close to him, it just means you should talk about your feelings with them more often.

No, i think that is very normal because you wouldnt like to hurt them. Instead its good to write your feelings down first and decide on how to approach the situation calmly but firmly.

Anger is a natural emotion. It is all about your response to the anger and how it shows up. Take a moment from the situation to gain clarity on your feelings and thoughts.

The fact that you can't get angry shows that you're a highly compassionate and strong person. Sometimes people who care a lot get angry more easily, in your case it's the opposite matter, you care so much about someone that you just can't get angry at them and that's ok! Consider that anger is a natural and sometimes even positive emotion though, there's nothing wrong with getting angry sometimes. Try to understand if you truly do not get angry at all or you're just not that aware about your true feelings, which can translate into passive agressive behavior sometimes. And if you do get angry sometime, have ways to cope with it, such as trough exercize, writing, punching a pillow. venting, whaterver that helps!

Nothing wrong with that, that means you love them, expressing love rather then anger. Relationship is healther, more relaxing, and more open.
