In your face...

---How do you handle conflicts?

I'm a very "in your face" kind of person. I feel that the best way to deal with conflict is to address it. The worst thing a person can do is pretend like there is no problem. If I have a problem with someone or something I take it up with the cause immediately. If I'm too angry to deal with it immediately I find a quiet place and chill for a bit. Sometimes I get rid of built up aggression by running. It's an excellent way to clear my head before making rash decisions.

---Do you feel that your approach is effective? Why or why not?

I think that my approach is very effective. The problem is dealt with and progress can then be made. I feel that it's better to upset someone with the truth than disappoint them with lies. At least then no one can say you're not an honest person. People will have more respect for you if you can just tell the truth and confront issues you face.

---What is the biggest problem you face?

The biggest problem I face at the moment is pretty trivial... and that would be my utter inability to save any money. For example, my fiance and I have been engaged for 2 years; you'd think we have a huge savings account for our wedding and the beginning of our future together. Nope, together we got nada. Just a lot of bills and debt...But we do have a lovely furnished apartment and all the beer anyone could want. Sometimes I feel like I just throw money down the drain, like we're NEVER going to be able to get married for the simple fact we just can't afford it. I have a hard time separating my wants from my needs. Like right now for example, I really need to be in bed getting some sleep... but I REALLLLLLY want to be on the RW... so here I am... typing this blog. :)
