Often during confrontation a situation arises, when instead of thinking of reconciliation one assumes a hard line and makes it a prestige issue to be uncompromising.

Amomgst friends minor issues of difference of opinioion magnify into enmity and the erstwhile friends begin to create problems for each other. Confrontation should be the last resort of a wise man.
