True that sometimes avoiding the problem will make you less emo.

But if that problems remain there, its like a crack on a cup, no matter how many times u mend or ignore, it does not disappear and someday you will get tired of that crack and explode. That will make things go out of proportion and it's something I will want to avoid.

When emotions get the better of us, we tend to do things/say stuff that we might regret in the future. I have enough regrets in life already, so I rather accept the problem and try to solve it. There is no perfect solution but I believe there is a best solution to all problems.

So J, avoiding the problem may not be the best option after all. You need to have the courage to face and solve it. That way, differences can be understood and (hopefully) turn for the better.
