Why we hate conflict
The idea of facing conflict evokes FEAR. Fear of these things:- Fear of our emotions
- Fear of being misunderstood
- Fear of your words being used against you
- Fear of rejection
- Fear of ultimately not being accepted by the other person
This is why we avoid conflict. The only way to resolve a conflict is to FACE IT. In order to face it, you will have to deal with your fears.
