Getting out of an argument means stopping a discussion that goes beyond the ethics of conflict management. A painless exit from an argument symbolizes the dignity and respect of opponents for each other.
Instructions
Step 1
It makes sense to argue with those who do not get personal, do not try to attack your "painful" points, do not jump from one accusation to another. If at least one of these principles is violated, try to pay attention to the words of your opponent and remind you of responsibility for the insults expressed. In most cases, this has a "sobering" effect, and the argument comes to naught.
Step 2
If your opponent provokes you into personal insults, do not give in, but strive to end the conversation. Especially when you feel like your composure is spiraling out of control. This can provoke a shift in constructive clarification of relations to "market swearing". End the conversation by saying that you do not want to conduct the conversation in that tone. As a last resort, offer to continue the conversation when both of you calm down and think about specific points.
Step 3
If the argument really lies with you, it's best to admit it and stop bickering. In this case, continuing is a big risk to your own reputation. However, to end the conflict with dignity, it is not enough just to admit that you are wrong: you must apologize. If you have good reason to believe that your opponent is to blame, invite him to admit his guilt and end the argument. At the same time, appeal with arguments and do not raise your voices. In no case gloat over his failure, show respect and follow elementary ethical standards.
Step 4
In family life, arguments arise no less often, so learn to find compromises. The "golden mean" is not a loss, it is a glimpse of common sense in the emotional battle of loved ones. Do not be afraid to offer compromises and agree to them, because they almost always allow you to establish a truce and end the dispute, while maintaining the dignity of both parties.
