Richie- it depends (standard answer).  I probably am a reactor on some occasions in that I jump right in and act.

I react in my head or I vent to an uninvolved party.  Otherwise, I usually respond.  

The assistant to a lender commented on how calm and quiet I was being in light of a terrible situation they caused.  I advised her that quiet is the silent sound of rage.

It depends.  

Why?  Because Roger D. Mucci likes it when I respond that way and because it's true especially in this question where more information is needed.

Richie Alan Naggar I'd say, as much as I want to 'RESPOND', I end up 'REACT'ing!

I am trying to get over with my 'last minute' habit - and have been successful, to an extent I must say (or else I would have been answering this question at 2 AM EST....lol!)

I try mostly to respond as it gives the thought process time to react and my Irish temper in a reaction might not be as nice.

I would suggest we all react inside. I try to keep the reaction inside and respond on the outside.

I am a "responder".  Reacting is emotional.  Responding is a rational response.  I generally don't speak when I am tempted to react on an emotional level.  I think about it, try to consider the other persons position, then respond accordingly.

I do not react nor respond if I'm upset or have not enough information. I focus on finding a way to fix the situation peacefully. If the situation requires a quick reaction, I can be quite fast and efficient. 

What's up? Something happened to you? Tell us!

I respond.

I have more to give, Scarcity is not my realty.

When the reservoir is depleted, when there is nothing to give, reaction comes to the surface.

It is helpful to know that when you are face-to-face with a reactor.
