Why am I weak at confronting others?

Weakness might be the wrong way to put it. Deep down, I feel that there can be a middle path for the same endpoint. And to dodge this confrontation.

Preserving my mental well-being might be an another explanation for not getting into debates/arguments to prove my points. In my mind, I find alternatives to go my way and also being considerate towards my well-wishers.

I try not to be a people-pleaser, somehow I find myself hardwired to not make others upset maybe due to reward based parenting during childhood. It can be kindness or empathy, whatever it is; must be balanced for this compulsion to not become an obsession for social acceptance or validation.

I just want to unlock my version of Rebellious Me.
