Question

Give examples from your own experience to illustrate the difference between realistic and nonrealistic conflict.

Answer 1

The realistic and non realistic conflict means are tension between two group which is arrived from frustration or anger. However, in both the scenario one is real while another is created. The conflicts come when their is a competition between two group or people.

For example: I was a sport person, and I used to play cricket a lot. And I have played for club. While in one game the tension was so much to win the game was that at one end it burst and when ever there was wrong decision by umpire we used to scold him. And same thing was done by the other team. We also started to tease the opponents, so their mind divert and they lose. This became so devastating that for wining that we had a fight. This is one example from my life which is a realistic conflict.

Unrealistic conflict in this only a group or person release its tension it is not goal oriented.

I had a performance at my college, a group performance a short play. As all the opponent finished their play it was our turn, we were so tense after watching their performance that we just wanted to release our tension and frustration as we thought that we are best and we were. So our main objective was not to win the medal or trophy but to give our best after watching other performers play. Because all of them were best, and it made us more competitive and tense, so just to release that tension we had to perform even better than others. And our main objective was to give.
