Journal Ten

Journal 10: What have you learned about your own conflict style?

According to the quiz my conflict style is collaborative. I think this is fairly reflective to the extent that a quiz can be, but still is not always true. My conflict style depends largely on who my conflict is with and who is is with. When I'm more vulnerable in a conflict I'm more likely to avoid it because I don't want to put myself in such a vulnerable place. However, sometimes even in a very vulnerable place I will act collaboratively but that's a lot easier for me if I am the one to make the first move. I find it easier to open up and be honest with someone if they don't ask me to. I scored lowest in competition and domination and i think that's true most of the time. I will sometimes handle family conflicts in a competition sort of way but I do that a lot less now than I used to.
