AGGRESSIVELY

Question Of The Week 8-14-17

How do you handle serious disagreements?
(With partner, children, family, friends, companies, etc.?) 

I go quiet. Very, very quiet.

If it's a company and I know I'm right, I'll stand my ground. If it's friends/family I just let it go..after all, what's more important...making your point or keeping the relationship.


Not very well - with differing results

If an immediate conclusion is necessary and I truly believe my results would point the right direction, I do become very aggressive in support of my decision. Cooler heads are needed than mine in "serious" disagreements.

By avoiding them until they solve themselves


I try for compassion . . . as in 'you're such an idiot you deserve my compassion so I am going to go look for some.'

I use to employ the silent treatment but now days, I am too old to waste time that way and I push for conversation. 

Different ways - I try to fix things - and I pray


I stand firm and stand up for my rights. I don't back down. If I am wrong I will, however, stand corrected, and take it in good grace.

Living alone with no relative close by family disagreements are non-existent in my world.

My two furry rascals usually win any arguments around here! I'm over-ruled! :)

I'm like EC, very, very quiet and desperately hoping things will blow over or at least quiet down until a solution cam be thought of and acted on.


in past i discuss for long but now i just be quiet .
life teaches a lot !
It depends on what it is - if it's something that is not worth fighting about, I let it go. It's it's worth fighting about - I go with logic and a cool head (but have been known to seethe inwardly.) :)
