    Hi, im just wondering is this common?
    I cant for the life of me confront my good friends on things. I have no problems getting into arguments in general in work , etc. But it just seems completely different with my friends. I recently had to confront a friend about something and I just couldnt do it in the end. I had to text him and even that was very awkward.

    Dont get me wrong , I have no problem disagreeing with them about small things that arent really of major importance, but when it comes to things that I know will really offend them, or get them really pissed off I just cant, but sometimes you have to.

    Its usually things that involve something to do with their personality or something like that, but its not always that. Also its usually worse the better I get on with someone. Ive never had a seriously heated argument or discussion with any of my real good friends or family. I always find a way around it and its a part of my personality I cant stand. It makes me feel weak.

    I've never had a serious argument with any of my friends either - I'm quite happy to keep it like that.

    I'm a bit at a loss to help with out specific examples of what you want to confront them on. It could vary immensely TBH - you friends could habitually take advantage of you and you need to learn to stand up for yourself (or find new friends), or you could be repressed control freak who's better off keeping his mouth shut...
