Why do people don't get along? In your opinion, why do people argue or mis understand each other. This is a general question, so feel free to apply it to family, friends, relationships, or co workers.

Yeah thats true. Another thing is that people lie, backstab, hise secrets from others (that they are suppose to tell those people), they don't know how to communicate effectively, they have a big temper problem. As a result, their impatience leads them into lots of physical and verbal arguements. Another thing is that people don't want to accept that they are wrong, they like to blame others for whats going on with them, and as a result, their anger and the other person colides, and they argue. Another thing I thought of is when people don't know how to listen, they just do what they think is right, and they get in trouble. There are lots of reasons why people don't get along, These are just some of the things I thought about.

Yeah thats true. Another thing is that people lie, backstab, hide secrets from others (that they are suppose to tell those people), they don't know how to communicate effectively, they talk too much or they are physically abusive, they have a big temper problem. As a result, their impatience leads them into lots of physical and verbal arguements. Another thing is that people don't want to accept that they are wrong, they like to blame others for whats going on with them, and as a result, their anger and the other person colides, and they argue.

Yeah the previous poster was right that people have different personalities and beliefs thats why they argue, but I think even though we are all different, we can still get along. If we axert some effort and not let our temper get to us.

I think people have a hard time getting along because they tend to not only want to be right, but they want everyone else to think they're right as well. Then, everybody wants to win at something and nobody wants to lose. Then there's the whole concept of image, so everyone wants to be seen as the good guy, even if they are the biggest jerk of all times. Then, add to that, people are lazy, so instead of perhaps lifting a finger to do some real good in the world, they put others down so that others will assume they are good since they are pointing out the glaring faults of others, and that's just so much easier than actually being good. That may only scratch the surface, because, like many things, the answer is complicated. Um, yes, I'm cynical.

No, your not cynical. You gave out a very good point.
