How do you deal with conflict?

Question

Cameron Taylor · Accepted Answer

Steping back cooling off then coming back and conversing because when everyone is angry/yelling nobody is understanding a thing. Reset and reengage in a calmer, respectable manner

Matthew · Answer

Analyze overcome and deescalate if that fails do what you gotta do.

Alex · Answer

Hear out all parties involved to get the whole picture, take a step back to distance yourself from your emotions to stay objective as best as you can. Don't scream, or say things you might regret. Say what you want to relay and explain exactly what you mean. And if you can't, take a moment, say you need to cool your head and step out. Come back and have a sit down and try again. You can't MAKE someone understand. You can only do your hest to explain. The rest is up to them. But also, never forget the same goes for you. As hard as it is, try to understand the other partie. Even if it is outside your comfort zone.

Cody · Answer

I try to calm down the situation before it gets worse but when past that point the only thing that goes through my mind is, is it worth fighting for. If it is, then I'm defending it and if not, then I'm walking away.

Roy · Answer

The only way to deal with it is to talk it out with an open mind and curiosity of the other persons perspective while keeping in mind that the goal is to find a common ground that might not be agreeable to both but something both can work with without being uncomfortable.

Tell the truth & live with the consequences.

Reimunndz · Answer

Well... It really depends on the situation. But usually, if you calmly explain your side of the situation to the person and if they're mature. You and that person will find a solution to it or find middle ground on the problem. Or worst case scenario, they defect the issue and entirely shift the blame on you without any valid examples (i.e I'm perfect, I do nothing wrong. It's simply your fault, because you're the problem. There will be no discussion about it.) again it really depends on the situation and severity of it too. Another way is to literally ignore it and go about your life... Idk pick your poison

Andrew · Answer

Conflict resolution requires blame .. someone is at fault, either one or both parties, or even an outside / third party .. 
The person at fault needs to confess and explain themselves and explain how they would make amends and not to it again .. 
Saying sorry dosnt do much if patterns of negative behavior are repetitive and are not actually being fixed .. 
People here are saying to walk away and cool off yes, however, it is okay to be upset, it is okay to be angry, you have every right to be. If you know someone has hurt you, they dint have the right to tell you they didn't.. The people who seek to avoid problems entirely and shut down are reactions to a trauma response, from a young age they have had to deal with things on their own with no one else, basically acting as their own adult. Those people need to realize that they are not alone and they can seek help .. communication skills may be lacking due to not being around others in tines of need or even crisis.. be informative about what happened, when, why, how etc ; conflict resolution requires both parties to be communicating and in the right state of mind .. 🧠
Do not listen just to respond or make excuses ; take time to understand where the other person is coming from and put yourself in their shoes .. 
Narcissists have a very difficult time feeling empathy.. if it's ALWAYS about them find a way to make it about putting the shoe on the other foot ..

Jabari · Answer

By talking it out. Which makes me wonder why did you match with me if you were gonna ignore me. You seem like a great woman. Would be nice if we could actually talk.

I take a deep breath and figure out how I can turn a con into a pro. Like breaking a disagreement with a positive outcome

Charlie · Answer

It depends on the nature of the conflict. But usually head on and immediately 😊☺️

Daniel Hansen · Answer

Hey been awhile, im sorry. Conflict? I make sure i have someone to vent to thats a 3rd party. Then i choose to either confront it, or avoid conflict and vent to the 3rd party to release the tension inside. Hope that helps.

Gabriel · Answer

I panic for a bit but my overthinking eventually calms me down after I think of different solutions

Aleks · Answer

Don't get into one

Peace ☮️ · Answer

With understanding and agreeing to disagree, or calmly finding a fair compromise or solution.

If they are unable to deal with it the same way, avoid the conflict or revisit the conversation later.

A Yogi · Answer

I am conflicted on what to answer.

Let me have a conversation with myself 🤔

Connor · Answer

The honest answer is to separate emotion from the senerio. I find the best way is to breath and take a logical look at it. If the other person can do the same a conversation can be had to assess the cause of the conflict and a solution can be found without escalation.

Bezio · Answer

hug

Jaime · Answer

I don't get angry or let emotions take over in the moment... keeping cool is the best solution in my opinion.

Lauren · Answer

Try to talk it out and de-escalate things but if I think the other party isn't open or interested in repairing the relationship then I'll just leave the situation and the relationship.

Natasha · Answer

Really depends who it's with. If you're in a safe situation then you can try to communicate and resolve. If there's no resolution then you'll have to agree to disagree. If you're dealing with a " right fighter" then don't waste your breath. Walk away

Lewis · Answer

Mur... der...

Saeed · Answer

Silence>scarper>fight

Alex · Answer

Let the adrenaline and anger cool off, then time for conflict resolution. Listen to the other party and offer ways to reconcile the difference, hopefully come out the other side closer together rather than farther apart.

Mitchell · Answer

I don't

TazDaDevil · Answer

I’m not the type to argue nor do I start or involve myself in drama at all. I do my best to talk and difuse the situation best I can if I know I did nothing wrong. Arguing is just to much mental effort.

Giri · Answer

Adam · Answer

Violence or compromise

Michael · Answer

Always trying to talk it out.  Encouraging an environment where we can express concerns or problems before they become conflicts.  Stuff like that…

Ivory · Answer

Apply some conflict resolution theories! Let's see the worth of my degree 🤣

Archie · Answer

It depends on what the conflict is about

Christoff · Answer

Well that can be tricky although my default answer would be true resort back to confit resolution tactics, but where it gets tricky is because once a person's emotions are involved then to use such a logical strategical problem solving tactic because useless in a lot of cases. Bottom line is you can't beat logic and facts with emotions although we all experience them from Time and Time some more than others
