Conflict is actually healthy to have as long as it’s not violent and there’s space for other ways of relating to the same person.

The most economically productive places in the world, I.e San Francisco and especially Seattle are famously passive aggressive and avoid conflict. It’s so well known in Seattle they have a name for it:

Maybe having conflict isn’t healthy, and letting people grumble about things under the breath is the right way forward, unironically.
