- I will wait until they calm down, and then I will try to explain the situation.
- I immediately defend myself and explain my perspective, so that he knows I had no bad intentions.
- I'll let him sort it out himself; if he wants to be angry, it's his problem.
- I try to lighten the situation right away with a joke so that it isn't tense.
- I start to wonder if I really did something wrong, and I apologize even though I'm not sure if it's necessary.
