It also represents a solution to the belief that negative feelings and behavior are a result of these unmet needs. This is why NVC requires both parties to be willing to understand themselves and to honestly try to understand the perspective of the other without attachment to the expectations sought and result that concludes. Its a path for the curious and attentive to find understanding and relatability first and foremost. from there, a willingness of compromise in directions of solution will offer the potential resolution to the conversation that will be amicable to all parties.
