When we face relationship conflicts, handling our emotions and reactions can be challenging. Our approach often depends on our personality. Recognizing different character types that emerge during conflicts can improve our coping strategies and lead to better solutions. Here are four common character types:

1. The Peacemaker: These individuals prioritize harmony and avoid conflicts. They may sacrifice their own needs to prevent confrontation. Peacemakers struggle to express their true feelings during disagreements.

2. The Fighter: This person thrives on conflict and isn’t afraid to argue. They find excitement in heated debates and may escalate conflicts rather than resolving them.

3. The Martyr: Martyrs see themselves as victims in conflicts. They manipulate others using guilt or self-pity. Blaming others and avoiding responsibility are common traits.

4. The Avoider: Individuals with this character type steer clear of conflicts. They express displeasure through passive-aggressive behaviors and struggle to communicate openly.

Understanding these character types can guide us through relationship conflicts and lead to more effective solutions.
