Are you a confrontational person in real life?

in Chit-Chat
I avoid confrontation like the plague. I remember when I was in high school, there was this girl who was very confrontational and every week she was getting into arguments with other people and get into their face. However, they was a time when she said a remark that I didn't agree with torwards or look at me at the wrong way and just generally have an air about her that lets me know they want to fight with me and I would just ignore it since I knew that if I talk back then it would just lead into pissing match which I wouldn't want. I just feel like silence is a powerful weapon sometimes. I just hate drama and arguing when its not necessary .Is anyone the same way?

    Run-on sentences scare me a little.

    I'm just going to go now.

    xD I'm so non-confrontational that it's kinda sad.

    I'm very argumentative! I'm all about standing up for my Brothers and Sisters out there and lets just say that at Church, I'm very controversial. Take me or leave me, I am what I am! :smile:

    Only my other personality is. He takes care of all the fighting, adrenaline and sex drive urges, while "i" am in university earning my doctorate in medical chemistry.

    i wouldnt call it confrontational, but i definitely speak up for myself. as a kid it either got me out of spankings and punishments or it made the spankings and punishments worse for being "fresh and sassy" :laugh:

    I don't seek it out and do what I can to avoid it, but if someone confronts me I won't take their crap. Plus, I know I'm always right anyway :wink:

    I try to avoid confrontation as much as I can. Like you, I largely ignore someone who tries to start a confrontation with me.

    Definitely Not. I am definitely not the one to initiate a confrontation. Unless it involves one of my daughters or my wife, I normally avoid confrontation. However, once initiated, I'm pretty difficult to deal with.

    I don't seek it out however I'm more than capable of defending myself should the occasion arise, unfortunately its one of these things that just happen. I'd rather be the lion than the mouse.....

    Depends entirely on the situation. If I wanna get to the bottom of something, yes. But say in your situation, I'd probably avoid majority of the time. Unless it got to a boiling point where I would be like "WHAT IS YOUR PROBLEM" haha :)

    I have to be completely fired up to be confrontational... Otherwise, I would much rather walk away.

    No, I hate it.


    But when I need to be, I can be.

    I have absolutely no problem being confrontational when it is called for, even for little things. However, I don't run around confronting everyone about everything. That's just being an a-hole.

    For me, it depends on what the confrontation is about. With petty arguments and minuscule differences of opinion I'll suggest the "agree to disagree" approach to diffuse the situation. However, if someone continues to stir their ladle in a pot that I've already made clear is near boiling point, they're probably going to get scalded.
