Do you ever feel like you're being too reasonable in an argument? Like hearing the other person express their point of view makes you want to accommodate them to some degree, but that only makes them more mad?

I get it, I'm stupid. But I genuinely care. Why do my roommates have to listen to stupid **** like arguments about why I don't call you while you're at work? Or how whether I admit I'm wrong or if I stand my ground, you only get more and more angry?

**** you. Rant over.

You should be allowed to state your case.

I never back down when I know I'm right, based on factual evidence of course. Though, that might be why I'm single...

True.. I used to be the same way but I've learned to back off if not down completely.. Of course if it's something I believe in so completely then I can't back down and don't see a reason I should...

It's tough, because I only do it when I know I'm right. So, backing down in that situation would be lying to circumvent arguement, which, as hard as it is to believe, I don't lie. I used to when I was a kid, but once I got older I realized lying just catches up with you eventually, so you might as well be upfront from the start and deal with the consequences at that point. Just gets worse as time passes. As for the not backing down, like I said, I only refuse to back down based on fact. Can't argue against fact, but surprisingly people still try.

Bit of a downpour in here!

Old cranky pants needed to say a few words!!!!

Seriously you are my soul sister...

Cranky pants? Wow, didn't realize stating my view on something made me cranky. But then, everybody has a right to their opinion...

I never argue, If Iam right they will eventually find out, if they never find out i dont care as long as I can stay happy And not have tolisten to someone lecture me or try and change my mind

Hmm... NEW STRATEGY, and it seems a whole lot less stressful...

Now why do you think she meant you? Am I missing something?

Maybe she didn't, of course I never said I was always right...lol

I've been told many times "You can be happy or you can be right."

Still struggling with that one.
