Confrontation is a necessary part of life, and some people will do everything they can to avoid the frightening tension of having something potentially unpleasant and provoking to say to someone else. However, others thrive on this emotion, eager to settle what's been on their minds. This assertiveness can be incredibly valuable, but at other times, it can be tricky to manoeuvre.

Here are the zodiac signs that hate confrontation the most:
Libra
Libras want everyone to get along as much as possible, so they'll try to keep the tension and conflict to a minimum. Even if they’re feeling less than enthusiastic about someone else, they’ll keep it deeply hidden inside until they can’t bear to hold it in any longer. They value fairness and balance, so they don’t want to be responsible for someone else’s bad mood. That often means they put on a pleasant front, and you’ll never know what they’re really feeling inside.
Cancer
As the most nurturing sign of the zodiac, they want to make sure their loved ones feel taken care of, so they’re known for their excellent memory. However, that also means they remember how uncomfortable they felt when they were last confronted, so they’ll try to skirt it as much as possible. You’ll have to convince them that a confrontation will improve a relationship instead of harming it!

Sagittarius
Sagittarians are known to be open-minded, given their propensity to talk about everything that strikes their fancy. However, they don’t perform as well under pressure, says YourTango, which means they often favour flight over fight—they’re not above packing up and leaving without saying goodbye just to avoid something!
Pisces
Incredibly romantic and sensitive Pisces will do anything to avoid conflict. It feels a lot like they’re being yelled at by their parents, so they shy away from any kind of negativity. If they’re forced into a confrontation, they’ll probably retreat into their vast imaginations, which you’ll recognize when they start getting that signature glassy look in their eyes.
