How do you respond to conflict? Do you create it, hide from it, charge head-on at it?

Personally, I do terrible with conflict. I literally start to feel nauseous and feel like I have an intense fever, like I'm burning up from bottom to top. It's bad.

What's your reaction? Discuss!

It depends on the person and the situation.

If someone has been harassing me daily and I've seen it as nothing, but it suddenly got worse, I will get violent. I will throw them into a wall, punch them in the face, etc. I don't like when people think it's hilarious to talk behind my back (literally 2 feet behind me) and then step on my shoes and push me.

If it's just a heated argument, I'll throw my hands in the air and scream. If they're being idiotic and their argument makes no sense, I just quit and walk away.

I also don't take it lightly when people stir up drama with my friends. I will verbally, physically, and mentally abuse anyone that hurts my friends.

Pretty much this in a nutshell.

I try not to get involved though if I can help it unless it gets physical or if it involves a friend of mine.

Conflict makes me cry.

Literally, no matter what kind of conflict that might be going on, I just cry and don't do anything else about it. (Such a great way to deal with things, huh? But I guess it's better than talking back to the other person and provoking them even more.)

Sometimes I'd like to react in some other way. But I just can't do it.

Whenever I get angry, I start to build tears, and people don't take me seriously sometimes..until they're getting punched in the throat.

I cry when I'm really upset..that's how you can know I'm ANGRY..

(first and foremost, i just have to say that the topic title is awesome.)
i really am the type of person who tries to avoid conflict as much as possible. when i'm involved in conflict myself, however, i try my best to stay calm.

I hate conflict. I honestly try to avoid it, since half of the fights/arguments I get into somehow just aren't worth it. I don't cry about anything unless I have a lot of harsh problems going on at the same time, but that rarely happens. I've made a habit of shrugging things off until all my frustration and anger builds up, and releasing all of it in one go(as in, crying for hours straight after months and months of not showing anything)

If anyone was ever physically hurting me, I'd slap them. Never had to before, but I would, even if it probably wouldn't hurt them lmao
I'm pretty good at defending myself and telling people off though. When I get angry, I actually start talking louder and faster and more intelligent. I get surprised myself... but err, yeah. I hate conflict in general. I try to make friends with people I can just talk to rather than argue with.

Hate it hate it hate it. In my mind everything should be happy peaches and rainbows and everybody gets along. I tended to shy away from conflict and drama in general, although then people start saying I'm ignoring them. Now I just try to be cheery and try to help resolve it, although I usually get burned trying.

I try to avoid conflicts as much as I can, but when I was once in one (don't remember how often I get into conflicts and what they were about), I just stay quiet... on the outside; in my head, I think of stuffs like saying something really witty or anything to make them feel bad/embarrass them.

I used to hate and be scared of conflict, but I'm actually really OK with it now. I've come to the realisation that not everybody has to like me, so I'm less scared to say what I think.

Plus, I've also learned that you can win just about any conflict by staying calm and letting the other person get agitated :P.

I prefer not to fight so conflict isnt my favourite thing and I definitely dont create it.. but saying that I don't run away from it and I'll stand my ground.

If they start it and throw the first punch (physically or verball) I'll definitely take them up on their nice offer, either in a verbal fight of words of a physical fight of fun!

I'm not a fan of conflict and prefer not to get myself involved in it. If I am, I try to end it quickly as possible. I don't like to put on a certain face or personality and then go behind that person and stab them in the back. Let's just say what we need to say, and get past it. If we can move on and be friends, awesome. If we can't, that's fine too. I do like to keep my friendships so it's not super easy for me to let go of them, but I can and will.

Physical conflict I want even less of a part of. Ignoring the fact that I doubt I can hold my own in a fist-fight, it's just not my style. That doesn't resolve anything and just escalates the conflict. These types of things tend to break out in situations where alcohol (and other inhibiters) are present, so that's when I'm most on my guard about picking fights or offending someone.

Nope, still running from people who start drama/conflict. Guess I'm not a strong against it as I thought I was now. ^^;;; Gah I hate that trait about me.
