Do you avoid things that make you feel uncomfortable or do you meet them head on?

If they are unavoidable and involuntary, I meet them with a bit of gusto and give 'em a whack.
@TheConstantGardener this is fabulous 😂

mostly head on, but sometimes there are things that you just have to walk away from.
@goliathtree oh lord yes!

Prefer to deal them head on and get them over with
@MissTaken seems to be the way to do it.

I’m somewhere in the middle.
I often avoid things that are going to make me work around someone who’s an idiot but I can’t tell that person about life’s realities.

But if I have no choice, I put my head down and power through it.

@JoyfulSilence indeed.

I understand this feeling. I have mostly been avoiding it. But however when I try sometimes, there results are not so good 😬
@SW-User keep trying

@SevenTierCrazyCake I will 🥴
Well if avoiding the thing is causing as much distress as facing it then I face it. But in general I tend to avoid things that make me uncomfortable.
@MrBlueGuy that’s the thing. Seems to be ‘cause as much distress.

If it's something I'll have to do deal with in the future, I prefer to settle it now.

It sorta depends. I found at one time a head on approach sometimes gave results better than I had expected
@wretch interesting

I have a tendency to avoid them if possible if not then there's no other choice than to face it head-on.
Degbeme · 70-79, M
