Can you be "at fault" for causing anger?

Specifically in people you are close to and know well. For example, your spouse, long time girlfriend or boyfriend, father, mother, sibling, best friend..etc..

People who you know HOW to “push their buttons.” People who you know flip over certain things whether their typical response is overblown or not.. if you know what their typical response will be and IF you were to pursue a course of action knowing that it would result in their anger…

…could it be said that you are Guilty of causing their anger?

discuss :)
