@markfennell.ie: Have you ever had someone get defensive with you when all you wanted to do was have a conversation? You try get clarity on something they did or said and next thing you know, they are getting defensive and angry. The reason is their insecurity is being triggered by your question. They interpret your question as a confrontation. So next time this happens, the key is stay calm and don’t allow their insecurity wind you up. Instead stay on point and let them know you’re not attacking them, just talking to them. Have you experienced this? Drop a “oh yes” if you agree #communication #relationships #friendships
