Confronting | Caring |
I feel deeply about the issue at stake | I care about our relationship. |
I want to clearly express my view | I want to hear your view. |
I want respect for my view | I want to respect your insights. |
I want you to trust me with your honest feelings | I trust you to be able to handle my honest feelings. |
I want you to keep working with me until weve reached a new understanding. | I promise to stay with the discussion until weve reached an understanding. |
I want your unpressured, clear, honest view our differences. | I will not trick, pressure, manipulate, or distort the differences between us. |
I want your caring-confronting response | I give you my loving, honest respect. |
