Confrontation, do you thrive on it or avoid it?

I am in the later category. I hate confrontation and have a long history of trying to avoid it.

I have a lot of respect for people who, obviously, don't create it but know how to handle it. Those can turn a hammer into anvil, I salute them.

Don’t like it but am very capable of handling it if necessary.

I try to avoid it, but also won't back down from it. I won't "turn a hammer into an anvil".
But you have to stand your ground or get walked over.

Avoid, but if pressed I will confront like a m'effer

@SeaGlass Thank you, remind me to stay on your goodside.

@Steph34 I know you're j/k, but I'm actually really laid-back and easy to get along with 😌

Steph34 · 31-35, F

@FloorGenAdm Depends, would that make a difference to how you react?

FloorGenAdm · 51-55, M

@Steph34 Of course...that's like 9 tents of the law!

Avoid it usually, but sometimes you just got to. There are good and bad ways to go about it though.

Acceptance.

Don't seek it, don't cause it, don't avoid it.

Accept it.

You're not going to avoid confrontation. That's apart of life.

Accept that it will happen though. Be prepared for it.

Life happens! Deal with it.

Acceptance is like having a flat tire.

You do nothing, you get towed away and costs you more than you can afford.

Call someone and you eventually pay for it.

Fix it yourself and you don't even have to wait and pay nothing. You have accepted the situation and were prepared for the flat tire.

Unnecessary confrontations can be avoided but at times we have to, when it affects our dignity or prospect.

Samek · 36-40, M

I avoid it. I'm a coward at heart. For my loved ones tho, I'll take the L.

Entwistle · 56-60, M

Depends upon the circumstances and the situation.

Sapio · 51-55, M

I thrive on it. My adrenaline gets going and I’ve been very dedicated to learning Kung Fu for the last decade of my life. 💀 so I’m not helpless. I have a very angry, argumentative side of me.

Umile · 41-45, F

I hate it.

But, if I have to, let's go.

Spoiledbrat · F

Some people do thrive on it. I avoid it.

chuck7882 · 61-69, M

avoid at all costs

ThreeLittleBirds · F

Depends what I’m being confronted about

If it’s my wrong doing I’ll take responsibility for my actions if it’s BS I’ll walk away 👠🤌🏻

Musicman · 61-69, M

Avoid it like the plague unless I am forced into it.
