When things goes out of hand, how do you face it? do you deal with it bravely and find solution or are you a kind of person that blame someone if things goes wrong? There are maybe lots of stories out there to tell. Let me hear your experiences and thoughts. Good day everyone!

hihi... i feel that it is just of normal human nature to put the blame on others when something goes wrong..and just keep saying 'its not my fault, its not my fault' and start saying how isit that it was another person's fault...this is just normal human nature of defending ourselves...to protect ourselves..although we all know it is wrong and not right, but we still do it, even if it consciously or sub-conciously..we will still do it... for me, usually i will try not to put the blame on others because i feel that it is very wrong...however, sometimes i still do it unknowingly..when some mistakes happened, i just suddenly blame it on others without thinking..i did not want it that way but it really happened.. i am still trying very hard to learn not to put the blame on others when things gone wrong..and i hope everyone can do that too!

I agree with you, Sometimes even if we already knew that its wrong to blame, we sometimes go beyond out of control but of course that is only at that certain moment but of course we still accept mistakes afterwards. I think making a habit not to blame is the best way to learn so we can avoid hurting someone. Have a nice day!

I usually blame myself. Its easier on me if I do I dont; like getting after or mad at others. I then work to fix the problem I dont really care if I accept the blame it makes me think and work out the error harder and faster. I work with some people that always blame someone else and says she never makes miscakes. I own up to mine always

Hi Cheenlly! You see, I believe in the dictum that "man proposes and God disposes.". When executing a task, I try my best to accomplish it, however, if something goes wrong, I do not feel like blaming anyone. I believe we ourseleves are responsible for every happening. Blaming game is just an excuse to escape the reality. What do you think on this issue?

Whenever there are problems or issues that needs to be addressed, I have a habit of 'furrowing' my eyebrows then looking intensely at the person Im talking to or just nothing in space in particular. Then I think of ways how to remedy the situation at hand. AFter that Ill talk about it with a colleague or with a friend and get some ideas on what's best to do. I really dont blame anyone about anything but I gotta be honest and say that sometimes there are those situations that blaming happens. I might have an opinion on who's to blame about a mishap but I dont voice it out. I just keep it to myself to avoid further conflicts.

For me, many times it has really been about the situation. There are times when something goes wrong especially when you are least expecting it that it can be an upsetting situation and so it is hard to step back and rationalize the situation and see where you need to move forward from there. But in a lot of ways, I really think this is just Gods way of testing us and seeing how much we can handle, and where we will place our trust, and deal with the situation. No one ever said it would be easy, but all things happen for a reason even when we do not always understand.

I do my darndest not to blame someone else, and I try to be as in control of a situation as I can. People may think that I am a control freak, but the truth is, when I am in control, and something goes wrong, I am better able to see why it happened, and less angry, than if someone else had caused the problem.

If things go wrong, I try to analyse the situation to see if I could have done things differently. Mostly, this is the case. However, the first thought is to lay the blame elsewhere, before I take this rational step. In other words, I look immediately for someone to blame.

Ha Im deffintley the type of person that likes to blame other people then to blame my self. I figure its a lot easier blaming someone else and makes you less depressed when you blame someone else. But I do take responsibility for my own actions when I have no one else to blame wich sucks.

Most of the time I find someone to blame. I mean not every time you get success in fighting with situation and if things go wrong then I will find someone to blame and will be feeling satisfied that it waasn't my fault, even if it was my fault. If no one is there, I always find God to blame that why didn't he gave me a hint of the solution. He is an easy pie for blaming!

There are some individual is having the hard time of admitting mistakes, they tend to blame other people to escape from being a failure. The scenario of escape goat is one commonly done as a defense mechanism. If the person has a very high pride, they are most likely be like this kind of behavior.
