Hi Dave,

In my mind, too.  In interpersonal conflict, each person wants 
something from the other, and neither is agreeing to do what the 
other wants.  Mutual resistance.

It seems to me that resistance is often mutual.  I want you to do 
something.  You resist by choosing not to do it.  I resist your 
choice not to do it when I continue to attempt to influence you.

Yes, I'm that way, too.  In the heat of the moment, my emotional 
knowledge usually trumps my intellectual knowledge.
