What's Your Arguing Style? Everyone gets mad occasionally at people in their lives (friends, significant others, family, even the dude behind the counter at the coffee shop). When you do, how do you handle it? Take our quiz to find out. Andrea Pyros 1. You and your family have spent every second together for the past three days. You're on one another's nerves, so when your mother asks you to clean your room, you:   start yelling and stomping around in a huff.   roll your eyes and tell her you'll do it later.   agree to do it. 2. Your date shows up late, as in, 45 minutes late with no call. When you open the door to greet him, you:   sit in the car with him and give him the silent treatment.   chew him out and tell him you're going out with your friends and you'll catch him later.   tell him that next time he should please call when he's going to be that late so you're not sitting around bored. 3. You feel like your American history teacher has it in for you for some reason, and when you get a C on your latest essay, you know you deserved better. You:   Schedule an appointment to speak with her privately to go over your essay. Maybe you'll change her mind, and if not, at least she'll be impressed by your initiative.   tell her you're going to make a major scene with the principal unless she changes it.   talk about her behind her back and start texting messages more often in class. 4. You overheard one of your so-called friends talking about you to some other girls on your basketball team. You:   Take her aside during practice that afternoon and ask her what's going on.   talk to the other girls later on and try to get them on your side.   leap out from where you were and confront her in front of everyone. page 1 of 3 Want more ym?
