Conflicts that i have faced

Assalamualaikum :)

Have you ever faced conflicts with people around you? If yes, what are the causes of the conflicts? There will be many answers, some might be the same and some might be different.

Conflicts arise when at least two people, who do not understand each other trying to stand up for what they might think is right. Everyone is taught differently, they are raised differently. These differences will make people argue so that one of them will get the victory of winning the arguments. Conflicts can be tense, relaxful, or sarcastic. Can conflicts be avoided? No, because avoiding will not settle the conflicts!

I would like to share conflicts that i have faced since i'm enroll in UiTM Merbok, Kedah. I stayed outside the campus for 3 semesters which equal to 15 months, more or less 1 and a half year. One of the conflicts that i have faced was keeping durian inside the fridge. My housemate was a durianator and i didn't mind about it at first. But then he decided to keep a small box that contain durian inside the fridge. I'm against the action because the fridge was used to keep drinks. So when he put the durian inside the fridge, all the drinks was eventually got the smell of durian. Ee yuck it's something that i can't tolerate. Drinks should not be mix with smelly foods. Then i decided to take out the food, put it somewhere else. So what he did next? He put it again inside the fridge. Oh man it's stressful for me. We didn't talk for almost 2 weeks. But then both of us decided to settle down the problem, because we're housemates. We have to see each other's face everyday. And it's not worth it to keep dragging on the problem. We talk to each other, sound out our disagreements. Just to make things better and yeah. Things changed at that time.



Guidelines in solving conflicts :
- don't use high voice when arguing
- always ready to listen to the opposition's view
- talk face-to-face and be gentle
- don't afraid to admit your mistakes
- it's better to say directly than keeping it inside
- don't make yourself dumb, be smart
