It's not a good thing. I want to be more aggressive like my boss who even when wrong gets all up in your face and utterly convinced of his own lies its crazy.That doesnt sound too good either. Thats not alpha Chad or whatever people may think. Thats delusional and just asshole behavior. I would definitely not want to exhibit that behavior consistently.
But I just dont care enough to go through the hassle of an argument. I can't help feeling that way
Of course. Here. Every day.If youre speaking about politics or religion on here, those are dead ends. People are HEAVILY entrenched and will defend to the death. To. The. Death.
But occasionally you dont wanna fight so you just let it slide. You understand that you being right isnt going to change their mind or do any good anyway, so you just drop it.

im not talking about being a door mat that people walk on. But occasionally you dont wanna fight so you just let it slide. You understand that you being right isnt going to change their mind or do any good anyway, so you just drop it.
People who thinking speaking your mind is a positive quality are buffoons.
Agreed. But also I fear developing the habit of dropping things too often because there's just so much stupid shit people say and do.I try to think that they are probably thinking the same about me. That I said something stupid that they are certain is wrong, but they let it slide. Sometimes that helps.
Sometimes, especially at work. And here. I had a more recent example where my grandma's husband insisted The Sopranos is still running, on its 15th season. I just let him have that one.
Uhhhh yeah, it's called being married. Or "domestic partners" if you wanna be right about itlol, was gonna put this in my opener but figured people would say you just have a bad marriage, unlike my perfect marriage where we never disagree

I actually believe that no disagreement EVER in a marriage is unhealthy. If you NEVER disagree on anything ever, it probably means that someone is always giving in or you just dont care.
Plenty often. It's fairly evident when a person isn't actually considering the logic or evidence you've presented, and so there's no point in further engaging. Unless you feel like a bit of trolling.
You dont wanna go through it or you dont wanna upset someone, even tho clearly the earth has mass. You just think to yourself you know what? I dont have to be right. Id just rather be peaceful than be right this time.
And apparently were not allowed to point out that behaviour here.
Yeah. Especially on Reddit. I start typing a comment and I'm halfway through thinking "you know what I didn't actually give a shit about this" and I just leave.This is YouTube comments for me.
Of course I don't use Reddit much these days anyway.
Yes, of course. It's called choosing your battles. It doesn't really matter how correct you are if you know the other person isn't receptive, and plenty of people will never be receptive.
Sometimes you just have to push all your chips on the table and go all in
