Agree to disagree
Friday, July 6, 2007 at 4:19PM How often do you encounter people who continually disagree with you as if to spite you? Why is that? Some people seem born to challenge you or to make your life difficult. Is it possible you attract troubled people into your life? Why?
Why would leaving your emotions behind seem like a perfectly logical thing to do? Some people learn to become detached and at least act disinterested, but it may not answer the question 'why resorting to this is needed.'
You could always ‘agree to disagree’ as a way to resolve conflict. Yet, adversarial types don’t desire to compromise. By nature, they appear intolerant. They reject views, opinions or positions because they feel like it. What do you do with people who act as though additional conflict is called for, effective and desirable? They may avoid amicable terms and continue to disagree because they have never learned how to agree. Why has nobody taught them?
