Take as your starting point a conflict you experienced recently with a close friend. Try to go through the communication that took place and answer the following questions:

a)

What was the main disagreement that emerged in the conflict?

b)

How did your relationship change as the conflict grew in intensity?

c)

In what way would you say that the communication between you focused on pointing out whatever was the cause of the conflict?

d)

Try to describe the pattern that evolved: Is it possible to identify any features of your interaction that tended to recur frequently?

e)

How would you characterize the conclusion of the conflict? Was it the case that one party won and the other lost? Or did both of you feel that you had won? Or were there other contexts that emerged?
