Eric,
What if you don't like conflict or confrontational episodes because you have a deep, deep impression that it represents a mean and out of control person who uses explosiveness as a way to make themselves believe they have stayed in control when all they have managed to do is to scare the living hell out of you? And do you see where this explosiveness is a form of manipulation or bullying?

PS: Yes, you might have to break that one down. BTW, the apostle Paul wrote a sentence longer than that.

Same thing holds if your attack is responded to, but you still don't like the idea - you have to think on your feet to come up with another argument.
