Approach-approach conflict comes from having to choose between two positive alternatives. Choosing between two things that you like, such as peppermint or spearmint chewing gum, can lead to an approach-approach conflict. When the decision to be made is between two positives, the conflict can be resolved easily. ... People in this type of conflict often say, “they’re stuck between a rock and a hard place”. ... Approach-avoidance conflicts are also difficult to solve. People in approach-avoidance situations are “caught” by being attracted to, and repelled by, the same goal or activity. ...
Three behavioral reactions to conflict and/or frustration are aggression, scapegoating, and escape. Depending on the severity of the frustration or conflict, an individual may react by doing nothing, as in the approach-approach situation, or take on a larger role and escaping the situation altogether as in approach-avoidance conflicts.
