If you see that a conversation is getting too intense, how

Hi there! If I am not a part of the conversation, I normally would not like to intervene, unless both the persons are very well known to me or say are my close friends. If they are stranger, I will skip the scene and prefer that they should sort out the matter themselves. If they are closer to me and are known to me, I make make some humourous comment to lighten up the atmosphere because I believe arguing/fighting is not going to serve any purpose for any of them.

I think I would try some other approach like change the subject. Or, just walk away so as to not increase the heated argument with something I might say to fuel the fire.

I avoid heated discussions so if one around me was getting heated I would move on. If I were 'involved' then I would do anything I could to lighten it up and move on. I even do that here at myLot - avoid the heated discussions.

Lucky for me I have always had a way with words and I definately use my sense of humor. Happy to say I have always had a good sense of humor.

For the most part I am a very good listener....but if it got to the point where it was very intense I would remind the parties that everyone has a right to their own opinion.....and they do. Just because there are conflicting opinions doesn't mean that anyone is wrong.
