it just shows that you are caring and love people close to you and sometimes its important to show your anger otherwise they will take you for granted

No there is nothing wrong with you in fact a lot of people find it hard to get angry at people they are close to but It's not a bad thing it just shows you really care about them, hopefully they feel the same back :)

Absolutely nothing wrong with you! It is very easy to rationalize the behaviors of those we love and care about, even if those same actions would make us angry if someone else were to do them. We naturally see the good in people we care about.

Maybe you just love them so much that the idea of hurting them is too much to handle, its just the idea that they mean so much to you. It's not necessarily a bad thing though!

Not at all it can show the love and compassion that you hold inside and its good for you to feel this way as it is better than you getting angry at them

Nope, that's kinda normal. It is because you are probably a good person at heart and are really loving to your loved ones etc. Though you need to have the guts to say "That's enough " sometimes when things go out of hand.

Not at all. You really love, care and most importantly, respect those people. You sound like a very empathic person who's so nice, you just can't get angry at others. Nothing is wrong with you. :)

No. Not at all. Not getting angry is the best way to show them how much you care. It's so hard for many people to hind their anger. Doing this is a wondering way to stay calm and show love.

Anger is an emotion that indicates someone has wronged us, is infringing on us or is causing us pain. A consistent lack of anger towards someone who continually hurts us (even if they are a loved one) might indicate a bigger issue. Perhaps we think so highly of them that we are neglecting ourselves. Perhaps we are worried that if we get angry, they will leave us. Perhaps we feel too uncomfortable with conflict. Despite what people think, anger can be a good emotion as long as it is appropriately managed because it reminds you that you have value and deserve to be treated well. A complete absence of anger can indicate a bigger issue.
