Chapter 6 question 3

When I get into an argument with someone, doesn’t matter if it is a close one or a complete stranger, I tend to try, key word try, to control myself. Out of anger we as people just got out of emotion, not really thinking about the consequences till later. It might be able to save the relationship, but sometimes that just isn’t enough. To be able to be great communicators we need to be able to control ourselves during arguments.
Some of the ways to control yourself during a argument is withdraw. That is where you leave when things start to heat up, but the problem with this is due to you let the anger builds and the argument might get more intense. Other positions could be forcing in which you go for the win, you don’t care about the others positions.
But I feel the most positive way to get done with arguing is to compromise. We need to put our ego away and realize that we need to learn how to communicate with each other.
