Face it head on. Then I get ignored
I feel that you should only face a conflict head on if it is going to improve your relationship in the long run. If the conflict is minor and will only lead to unnecessary argument I feel it should be avoided.
prefiero enfrentarlo, que no nos acostemos molestos!
I always tend to try and avoid conflict when it comes to personal problems. She knows that more than anyone. When it comes down to things like that, I'm a push over. But I'm slowly getting better at it thanks to her. She makes me face my problems head on, especially our own problems whenever we get into fights. It's really helping me out and I'm getting used to solving things head on rather than saving them for later.
I avoid it only if confronting it won't help or solve the problem. Otherwise I face it head on.
I avoid it at all costs until it builds up like a volcano. then boom. something random lets the cat out of the bag and I face it head on, disaster every time. smooth.
The question may have dual meanings. Do you avoid conflict given by others or caused by you? I think you answered the first. As for me, I don't know anymore, it's a complicated question and I'm confused :/ :(

I think I'm too stubborn to avoid it. I know when I overreact about something before I let it bother me but I'm terrible at hiding the truth and he knows me way too well to avoid conflict. We have some blowups but we have an amazing love that it all balances out.
Face it! Holding it in only makes things worse. I've learned the hard way...
yup
While my typical inclination is to face it head on, I try to inhibit that impulse and avoid as much as possible out of courtesy for everyone involved.
Face it head on , i never avoid it cus i think that could cause more problems
I definitely tend to avoid problems if i can
head on to it and then make up
I try to face it head on, if I get to cranky or pissed off I will try to walk away from it until I calm down enough to be logical, but I usually walk away pretty cranky.

Face head on but he runs :/
