Learn how to clear issues with people, in peaceful and compassionate ways.\u00a0 Watch the differences between assertive, aggressive, and passive responses to stressful situations, and learn to speak up for yourself.&#8221;\u00a0 <!--more--><\/p>\n<p>A new friend is always tentative and unsure in her interaction.\u00a0 It can make it tedious to be around. She&#8217;ll say, &#8220;do you need anything at the store?&#8221; (Me: No.) Then, &#8220;I need to go to the store but can drive you home first if you don&#8217;t want to go.&#8221; (Me: No, it&#8217;s ok, let&#8217;s go.) &#8220;Are you sure you don&#8217;t mind? Because I can go another time if you&#8217;re not in the mood.&#8221; That&#8217;s more discussion than I want to have on that topic.<em> I told her I really appreciate it when someone just flat out says, &#8220;Hey, I need to drop by Publix on the way.&#8221;\u00a0 End of discussion.<\/em> The hesitant, being-tentative is annoying and unbecoming who she is. She&#8217;s someone fun to be around or I wouldn&#8217;t be in her car, and I&#8217;m glad to go on little excursions with her. But when she starts that pussyfooting around, I call her on it. What she has to say is important, or we would not be standing side by side at this moment. Speak your mind. Speak with confidence.\u00a0 Stop the unhealthy process of stuffing emotions until there&#8217;s no choice but to blow up.\u00a0 Doreen&#8217;s video can show you how.<\/p>\n<p>RELATED: <a href=\"http:\/\/horizonsmagazine.com\/blog\/?p=34951\">Learn to speak your mind<\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/horizonsmagazine.com\/blog\/?p=35086\"><br \/>\n<\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/horizonsmagazine.com\/blog\/?p=32802\">We&#8217;re all looking for a family to fit in with<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/horizonsmagazine.com\/blog\/?p=35086\">Not saying what\u2019s on your mind because you don\u2019t want to hurt anyone\u2019s feelings is unkind and disrespectful to both of you<\/a><\/p>\n<div id=\"s-share-buttons\" class=\"horizontal-w-c-circular s-share-w-c\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sharer.php?u=http:\/\/horizonsmagazine.com\/blog\/stop-stuffing-emotions-until-you-blow-up-and-have-to-start-over-with-all-new-people-once-again\/\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Share to Facebook\" class=\"s3-facebook hint--top\"><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?text=Stop stuffing emotions until you blow up and have to start over with all new people&url=http:\/\/horizonsmagazine.com\/blog\/stop-stuffing-emotions-until-you-blow-up-and-have-to-start-over-with-all-new-people-once-again\/\" target=\"_blank\"  title=\"Share to Twitter\" class=\"s3-twitter hint--top\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/plus.google.com\/share?url=http:\/\/horizonsmagazine.com\/blog\/stop-stuffing-emotions-until-you-blow-up-and-have-to-start-over-with-all-new-people-once-again\/\" target=\"_blank\"  title=\"Share to Google Plus\" class=\"s3-google-plus hint--top\"><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/shareArticle?mini=true&url=http:\/\/horizonsmagazine.com\/blog\/stop-stuffing-emotions-until-you-blow-up-and-have-to-start-over-with-all-new-people-once-again\/\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Share to LinkedIn\" class=\"s3-linkedin hint--top\"><\/a><div class=\"pinit-btn-div\"><a href=\"\/\/www.pinterest.com\/pin\/create\/button\/\" data-pin-do=\"buttonBookmark\"  data-pin-color=\"red\" title=\"Share to Pinterest\" class=\"s3-pinterest hint--top\"><\/a><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<script type=\"text\/javascript\" async defer src=\"\/\/assets.pinterest.com\/js\/pinit.js\"><\/script><a href=\"mailto:?Subject=Stop%20stuffing%20emotions%20until%20you%20blow%20up%20and%20have%20to%20start%20over%20with%20all%20new%20people&Body=Here%20is%20the%20link%20to%20the%20article:%20http:\/\/horizonsmagazine.com\/blog\/stop-stuffing-emotions-until-you-blow-up-and-have-to-start-over-with-all-new-people-once-again\/\" title=\"Email this article\" class=\"s3-email hint--top\"><\/a><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Conflict phobia keeps several friends from speaking their mind and so they&#8217;re always stuffing emotions until they blow up.
