Fear of Confrontation

Many people these days fear to confront someone for various reasons. In particular many Malaysian have the fear of confrontation. In a research done, about 28% of Malaysians have the fear of confrontation. Fear of confrontation is the fear of meeting someone face to face because of various reasons such as fear of rejection, guilty and anger.

Many of us fear rejection especially when proposing to someone or asking someone something. Usually we get the fear of rejection because the other person has higher authority than us. Furthermore, we are afraid that we will get embarrassed if the person rejects us face to face. We want to safe our face that's the reason we always shy away.We rather use emails, hand phones or other communicating devices.

Besides that we sometimes feel that we have done something wrong and we are too guilty to apologize. We tend to run away from the person that we have done something to. It always wrong to run away if we have done something wrong but sad to say some of us still don't hold the truth and run away. We should face the facts and clarify the problems to avoid futher problems.

In conclusion, we should always solve the problem and should not fear confronting with somebody because if we do that we lose alot in many ways.
