You are perfectly right. Absolutely correct. Realizing that the feelings are there, and embracing them as your own is such an amazing and beautiful thing.
Feel them, know they are there, appreciate them for what they may be saying, and then endeavor to listen to them at some more appropriate time.
And that time will either come or it won't.
I think you're doing great, knowing that you are a conflict avoider is wonderful. Now finding out how to work with and around that? I have no idea.
