Social interaction and conflict?

Question

I'm wondering how those of you out there cope with social-conflict.

It appears to me that conflict can present itself in very subtle ways, such as aggressive eye contact or posture on the one hand, and more direct or indirect forms of aggression on the other, such as domination, exclusivity, humiliation, or insults.

Clearly, one should have knowledge of their personal rights and boundaries, but I more interested in hearing specific situations, scenarios, or strategies the you all you in your day to day conflict with other people.

Answer 1

The key word is,response.If we refuse to give an indication that we have recognized their signal for conflict and also don't react,it would be great fun to watch people reacting to the situation,They would not only feel frustrated but also dismayed and angry with themselves for their failure to generate a conflict.Most would eventually ignore or spare you,may be, as a dimwit or a gone case.That's what you wanted in the first place.For the full blown scenario of conflict,one has to adopt other strategies.
