How easy is it to admit your wrong?

When I am wrong I am wrong and I admit it. Makes it harder for me to accept when other people can't admit when they are wrong.
 
I have zero problem admitting when I'm wrong. In fact, I find it to be quite a good disarming tactic in arguments and confrontations. ;)
 
I do use the "I'm never wrong" line a lot. But... in the unlikely scenario that I am proven wrong, admitting it's not too hard.

Saying that, most situations where someone tells me I'm wrong tends to be one of those situations where there is no wrong answer - or I have a conflicting set of morals/beliefs.
 
... Seriously, it's not worth starting an argument over stupid shit. It's not just marriage, even with friends and co-workers there are certain times when you just bite your tongue and say "it's not worth the argument". Everyone does that to a certain degree.

This is why I am no good in TNZ :lol:

Yeah but this is, for the most part, inconsequential bullshit. No offence to anyone. :lol: It doesn't matter if you throw down on someone if they're an idiot or you think they are wrong. There are no consequences for not voicing what you believe to be true as arrogantly as you wish.
 
It's easy for me to admit I'm wrong. Well okay, maybe I was wrong to say that. Oh wait, now I'm confused...huh??
 
^ I was going to, but then I realized it's still correct.

When you commit a wrong, can you commit to that wrongdoing? Can you admit to your wrong? It can be used that way and still be correct, as badly as I wanted to say something though. ;)

J.

No consequences beyond the knowledge that you made an ass out of yourself, if you were wrong.

That may not bother some people, but it bothers me.

Well, maybe not when I'm drunk. But I almost never drink and post.
