I find it absolutely frustrating whenever there's a negative barrier in communication between myself and others. whenever a conversation is not about a free exchange of ideas but instead a matter of competition, conflict, and being right or wrong. whenever these superficial things come up between myself and a friend, it is ABSOLUTELY FRUSTRATING. why can't we calm down and not view every little social situation in life as a test or ego threat? JEEZZ!

I often try to take a step back and look at the situation, unfortunately we live in a very competitive society. It's more of a debate, they taught us to debate in social studies for some odd reason. People defend themselves for what the believe in, they stand their ground and say what they believe in no matter what kind of conflict it is, everyone is going to have an input even if it's quietly in your mind.
