Face it, get it out the way, move on xx


It's situationally dependent. Most times head on I preferred but sometimes it's best to take a minute to cool down and come back to the issue later.


It depends if the problem is worth confronting.


Neither I pick my battles.


I face it in the head, but I really need to be more concerned with being happy rather than being right. Two different things.
It really depends on the situation. Sometimes it's just not worth it. I like to think that most times I try to avoid conflict, but there are times you just have to sick up for yourself , your kids, or for whats right.

Try to avoid it.....


Try to avoid


We try to face it head on with out getting to pissed about it lol.


I try to avoid it, but sometimes you have to voice your opinion.


Mostly I avoid conflict...especially those with family matter...


I try to avoid it but if not possible then head on!!


I like to face it head on. What good does avoiding it do?


I would want to address it directly if and only if the other party is calm and wants to work on the issue. If they are screaming or raising their voices, I would walk away. There is no point talking to anybody when they are in this state.


I have always been a kind of "throw a haymaker at conflict and knock it out ASAP" kind of person. BUT as I grow with my partner I am learning that some things are better just left alone.


I try to avoid it as much as possible, but a relationship is composed of 2 different minds. Sometimes conflict is unavoidable
