Why do some people like starting conflicts?

[Don-__-Don]

I'm asking this because it's always been am ongoing theme in my life of where people would want to start shit with me when I seemingly don't do anything for any problems to arise.

I don't understand the mindset behind people who deliberately want to provoke people in order to start a fire.
