AVOIDING CONFLICT

If in your lifetime you encountered a conflict with your friends, neighbors or even your brother and other people to issues you don't agree, what will you do? If the infighting continues, the good relationship that you were building for quite a time now will be broken due to your disagreement.

If the conflict came from you, you have to accept responsibility of your action. Lower your pride and make steps for reconciliation. You have the right about your feelings and views, but if you think it was your mistake then there is no reason for you to insist that you are right. Accept it. Be humble. The person you were in conflict with will understand and ready to accept you back. But if he cannot accept even if you humbly apologized for the things you have done then its up to him. You were already doing your part, maybe later on he will understand. For now just leave him temporarily and do a continues effort for reconciliation when the right time comes.

The important thing was that you tried to make the relationship to return back same as before. In a relationship, a better communication was mostly required to be able to know what was in his mind and yours. Don't ramble behind his back and tell it to other person, it can only ignite the flame more.

Don't talk too much to become personal. You were only creating your own problem to become worse. Focus only to issues you were in disagreement with him and see what you can do. Don't wait for a longer time before you act. The earlier the better.

Remember, do not fight on every issue. Stick to the point and nothing more. Ask yourself if it is worth a fight. You are only wasting your time instead of doing something worthy.

Learn how to listen. Give him time to talk and hear his side. Remain calm. After he presented his points then you can talk. It is much better if you talk briefly. Too much discussion can only ruin what you wanted to achieve.

Find a way for the resolution of the conflict. Use a go-between among your friend or both your families to settle such misunderstanding. It is not always effective if you settle the conflict only to both of you. With the help of your parents or other friends they can  help pacify whatever emotion that are going to burst if not handled properly

If there is reconciliation going to happen, be careful. Give time for the healing. Don't touch any issues again. Let it buried underground.
