Conflict is best avoided. Time will solve the
problem; it will all blow over.
If two people experience relationship conflict, it
means their relationship is in trouble.
Conflict damages an interpersonal relationship.
Conflict is destructive because it reveals our
negative selves—our pettiness, our need to be in
control, our unreasonable expectations.
In any conflict, there has to be a winner and a loser.
Because goals are incompatible, someone has to
win and someone has to lose.
