I also experience strong physical reactions to confrontation.

Rarely is there an in-between.
I really don't like fighting with people. I just had to confront our landlord about something last night, and it didn't go well, and it tore up my entire evening and part of today.
I'm not totally sure why this happens; but I can relate.
