I'm studying conflict management at the moment and they say the four levels of conflict are: discomfort - a feeling that something 'isn't quite right', Incident - an exchange resulting in irritation or distress, Misunderstanding - motives and facts can be misperceived, tension rises and relationships are strained and finally Crisis - Normal functioning becomes difficult and extreme responses are contemplated. Hopefully you stray no further than the first stage[lol] and perhaps you use the experience as inspiration for your next story. Good luck..Kiashi
