If you engage Nines in a difficult conversation because you are angry, they will usually just sit it out until you’ve stopped talking. Then they will methodically avoid both you and the subject until things settle. Regardless of where the anger originates, they will likely choose to go away, making themselves unavailable and believing that with time the problem will fix itself. Nines have to learn that taking leave in situations like this usually increases frustration and anger, leaving things far from “fixed.”
