Admit when you are wrong.

One of my biggest pet peeves; when someone says something that is factually incorrect, and then of course I correct them. Then they proceed to argue. Then after the debate is over, someone says something along the lines of “you always have to be right” or “just be the bigger person” or “agree to disagree.

It’s not that I have to be right, it’s the fact that I AM right, I know some of you will think that sounds snarky, or very know-it-all; but I promise it’s not meant to be degrading or offensive. My point here is just to say admit when you are wrong, [u][c=800000]I myself am wrong at times as well. [/c][/u] In the event that I am wrong I will admit that HOWEVER; if I’m not wrong I’m not backing down, that’s just not me.

Oh, my fucking god. That reminds me of arguments with my dad. I'll admit when I have said something wrong or when something's my fault, but when it's his fault, he tries to shift the blame onto everybody around him, or he goes with the sarcastic "It's always my fault" bullshit. Like, come on, dude. You're supposed to be the parent. Why am I more mature than you?

@LordShadowfire EXACTLY. I’ve had this problem so much with my mother. When i say it is THE MOST aggravating thing ever. Narcissistic parents are the literal WORST.
