Interpersonal Conflict in Movies The interpersonal conflict in this movie is the same as most of our daily lifestyles as human beings. There are many moments in life when things people say are taken out of context and/or control and you wish you could interpret them as if they were never even said. There were so many examples of conflict in this film that I couldn't pick just one. After watching this great and funny movie, I learned that I have to be careful about what is said. Also as they say to avoid aggravating any incident you may have in an active relationship with a loved one or even just a good friend. When handling interpersonal conflict at any stage of a relationship, handle yourself the same way you would like to be treated. At the beginning of the relationship make sure to ask lots of questions, but make sure they are the correct questions to ask and keep family questions to a minimum until the next stage of the relationship. No relationship is perfect, but with the correct interpretation of romance all conflicts can be handled accordingly. The first incident of interpersonal conflict in the movie “Hitch” that I noticed was that I watched the lady discover that the guy she is dating is known as the relationship expert “Hitch.” While the question of what he did for a living was never raised (as far as I know), if the right questions had been asked and answered, this information would have come up in the conversation. If trust and accurate information had been conveyed to the parties involved, this accident could have been avoided. She then brought up this information during the conflict to let him know that she knew what his real job was. Another incident that caught my attention but… middle of paper… and it ended up happening in a relationship but he failed to use this same advice and apply it to his relationship. There are a lot of things right now that could have been done differently, but in the heat of the moment people tend to say whatever comes out and express it with words out of their mouth, especially if they are hurtful words. After things have calmed down, you want to take back what was said and then it's already too late. When handling interpersonal conflict at any stage of a relationship, be respectful and behave the way you want to be treated. References Mordaunt, W., Tadross, M.
