AVOID
i face it head on.
Avoid it. Conflict never leads to anything positive.
Both
I am an aries, so I deal with it head on. Sometimes it's not the best choice though...
Depends on who I'm with. Most of the time face it head on.
I try to face it head on
I guess I don't like conflict, but I'd rather address an issue to get rid of awkwardness and tension. but I try to be agreeable and pick my battles. Conflict isn't worth the heartache most of the time.
Procuro confrontarlo de frente... creo que evadirlo siempre genera el efecto olla express. Pero si veo que tampoco es bueno hacer conflicto de todo. De hecho... creo que espero hasta que realmente siento que vale la pena. De no ser asi.. prefiero no abundar en hacer sentir mal a mi mujer bella :D
It depends on the situation
I face it head on. I like the thrill. Just who I am. It embarrasses him at times but I think he believes that I do it from the heart
I tend to avoid it.

I like to avoid it if it's small fish but if it's a serious issue or has to do with "respect" I'll jump all over it!
In most public areas of my life I tend to be the peacemaker, which means acknowledging conflict and working to a resolution. I'm also a "fixer". However, in personal relationships this seems to be becoming a pitfall because there is no compromising with some people. I find that I tend to compromise my desires and needs in order to keep others happy. I would like to to be able to resolve conflicts without compromising myself to find resolution.
Depends, if I think what I'll say will make a difference then yeah, but sometimes I just avoid it.
I try to avoid it, but I want to face it as well...
