i had ask my husband about this..and told me that its only women who are fond of confrontations..men in general are less confrontational..since they dont want to hurt the feelings of the woman..but when in terms to man to man confrontation its not their trait to do it..they want action..like punching or whatever..to solve any misunderstanding..

I guess it's just in their genetic makeup or whatever. I used to get so paranoid thinking "Is it just my guy who's acting like this? Should I be worried?"

Hey joliefile, I think men are usually focused on other things in life and they normally do not want to engage in a war of words with their partners or friends. Most men are relatively more playful than most women and all they want is to do their stuff and not get into unnecessary situations which involve too much emotion.

I think no wise man/woman likes confrontations with anyone. Confrontations takes us away from peace and no one wants to lose his/her peace. I would rather surrender to the other fellow, instead of confronting her for the sake of peace.

I don't like confrontations sometimes but there are just things that you give guys a hint to confront them about and it's kinda frustrating not getting any confirmation or something. This makes me think sometimes that they are dense.

I don't know, but I do hate confrontations too.I don't like arguments. I really prevent this to happen to me and my boyfriend though we are very opposite, we still manage things and patch up everything. I can't tell but I hope we can make it until the end.

Hopefully you two will make it.
You may be opposites but you may also complement each other in some ways.

I do not know. I will be watching this discussion close for some answers though.
My husband is the same way. But after being in his family for 13 years, I have come to realize it's a sensitive area in his parents life. They are not very confrontational people. So I assume that's where he got it from.
Much to my mother-in-law's credit, she is coming out of it and starting to stand up for herself in a lot of areas.
My husband and I have balanced each other out over the years, I've toned down in many areas and he has gotten a little more aggressive.

I'm trying to understand this aspect of them. I guess I won't push it or there'll be trouble. Sometimes not being confrontational makes me think I am not special to him anymore or he just doesn't care.
