Certainly this could be true in many cases; but I like to think that I have demonstrated in most cases that I will react in good faith to these sorts of things.
Is there a sort of person with whom you would give an explanation? Someone you knew would be much happier with even a short explanation and not bother you about it?
What sort of evidence would it take for someone to convince you they were that kind of person?
The reason I ask is that I have honestly never even once in my life been even the tiniest bit concerned about someone trying to discredit me behind my back, and though I could imagine circumstances that might move me into those circumstances, I imagine that you (as someone who came up with that possibility quickly) have lots of mental habits that I don't and would like to understand.
Hypothetically, sure. But I don't know why I'd want to completely cut off contact with someone I found so trustworthy.
Consistent signs of low neuroticism and a realistic, constructive attitude toward interpersonal conflicts.
Really? Have you ever felt pressured to "choose sides" in a conflict that you weren't a party to?
Yes, but never in a situation where there was any prior doubt about which side I was on. I've had people confirm that I was on their side, but I can't recall anyone trying to persuade me to switch sides.
