Avoiding or withdrawing mode

You avoid the issue

• As a stop gap measure
• Because you think disagreements are inherently bad
• But you can say "I'm neutral on the issue"

  • Or "Let me think about that!"
• This is a passive option

  • That doesn't really solve the problem
  • Especially in the case of interpersonal problems
