Interpersonal Conflict in Past Year
Varying interests, scarcity of resources or divergent opinions will always result in interpersonal conflicts. Such conflicts may be expressed in different ways including word of mouth, signs and gestures or through silence (212books).
I have an older brother named Charles. We have been very close since childhood. When our parents divorced back then he was there for me and I regarded him like a father figure. He always made sure I did the right thing and would also help me sort out my problems. He guided me throughout childhood and adolescence and helped me to get into the university am currently in.

During this time the three of us did a lot of things together, we went for...
We had a lot of fun together. However, after she finished her semester abroad, she went back to Korea and because of the long distance Charles and Yoojung broke up. Charles cut all communications with her and I did the same thing. A few months later Yoojung sent me a message and this was a few weeks before a graduation trip I had planned for Korea.
