Are you the kind of person who wants to discuss it right then and try to work it out? Do you normally need time to cool off first? What usually works for you?

For me, most of the time, I need to iron it out immediately. However, this doesn't always apply to the other person therefor, I allow their needs to be met as well.

i get extremely angry when people don't want to talk it out that exact same second, so then i upgrade to screaming just to provoke. and if all else fails, i'll poke you in the eye.

If you don't have a small caliber pistol (which can get into a whole ugly legal matter that I just don't want to get into right now but maybe later) then a knife can be just as convincing.

Depending on the subject or issue. I would rather talk things out and get everything straight and laid out on the table. No yelling or cussing or down gradeing. Talk like a human being to human being and make sure you don't go to bed mad. That's my opinion.

Not every disagreement can be handled the same. What does it depend on? Can you provide any examples of when things can't be handled in the same way?

Every situation is different. Every person is different. How I would react to a situation or person is different from situation to situation. Depending on what the disagreement was, how the other person approaches me, and the situation in general, I would react in what I felt was the best manner at the time. I may just leave it as is, take time to cool down and discuss it later, discuss it right then and there, it would just depend on the situation really.

Even in different situations, I tend to like to talk it out right away. I rarely ever need a cool off period or anything like that. So, even with different situations, people may handle it the same way.

Normally I go quiet and think about it, then if I need to I will talk, otherwise, I would say nothing. I am happy to disagree, but hate arguement or raised voices, so if the person I needed to talk to was probably going to end up upset, I would just let it go..

How do you prefer to settle disagreements? With a nine iron. I usually take care of it then and there, no point in carrying around any negative feelings.
