Thanks for your reply, some times I am more loving and kind to all those around me forgiving in nature, some times when they take more advantages, I am getting more angry and all the good part they have done is gone, I tend to think everything they have done is wrong and Judging them on their negative and start avoiding them.
I am not sure whether its a social disorder or the personality behavior
Here my childhood:
I grew up for less confident mother who raised me in a very nuclear family avoiding all my relatives and friends, abused me in language, physical and emotionally many times for small mistake i did. i felt its better to go away from the house, after my post graduate education my confident raised due to my job and independent to stand
My father was also strict ex-service men who fear for society and live very calm life, but nothing he has done as father until my marriage, he failed in his responsibility that made me family is nothing
but after learning from the spiritual area and seeing many loving family i increased my confident in family life and married recently
Please suggest me which medication suitable for me and my behavior?

Brief Answer:
Initially ssri group of drugs could be helpful
Detailed Answer:
I must thank you for the detailed childhood history
Usually children who are brought up in such environment are likely to have "anxious-avoidant personality" or "social anxiety"
Moreover, you mention that your father had social anxiety. This trait, is partly genetic, too
Usually, practically, difficult to differentiate both the condition
For the initial phase, you can use SSRI group of drugs like fluoxoetine, sertraline etc.
And then subsequently assertiveness training and social skill training should help
Consulting a psychiatrist and discussing all these issues would be ideal
Hope this helps
