@ Abaco, I know what you are saying Abaco, but I would never argue with anyone unless I was 100% certain that I am correct. Also, I've only been stubborn and rude to one person who came to me seeking emotional help, as my views were too implanted in my mind for her to change them. But that has never happened since.
For clarification, I'll tell you what her situation was. A friend and I were making fun of emo kids (this was a while back, I'm more mature now) and talking about how stupid cutting is. We were in a chat and my friend Taylor was offended, because she used to cut. She asked us to stop and my friend made one last remark and she left. I privately IM'ed her and she was pissed at me and I basically told her what I thought about cutting, how it's socially engineered and basically asking for attention. She said it was a chemical imbalance in your brain, I told her that was called depression and that if she was alone on an island, she would have never thought of hurting herself to relieve pain. I told her she gave into a social trend.
I felt bad afterward, but I still think I'm right.
@ Llama, I would never debate unless I had a good handle on the issue. I like to throw in little facts during debates to spark up conversation so I learn more, but I only feel right, when I 100% know I'm right. Then if the person disagrees, tells me I'm wrong, I will provide the facts and evidence to them, which helped me form my position, until they yield.
