Are you a person who immediately admits that you were wrong or do you find it hard to do?  I know someone who will swear up and down one thing, but when proven wrong she will never say she was wrong.  It's some sort of pride thing, I guess.  

What do you all think?

Absolutely I do!  I'm certainly not too big to admit when I'm wrong.  I would feel very bad about myself if I didn't.

I'll let you know when if it happens.

Many people will never admit when they are wrong.  Even when they are on a forum such as this (where no one knows them).  I will admit when I am wrong (if it is proven) that I am wrong.  You have to show me in the face of facts I'm not aware of and then I'll admit.  I do this because I want to learn too.

I'm never wrong!  Just ask my husband!!!

(I feel sorry for someone who can't admit the truth.)

Most times, it's a matter of opinion.......and that's why we have lawyers and courts of law...................

Oh heck, I admit I am wrong even when I didn't do anything !!

Yes, I always admit when I am wrong. I don't mind being wrong. I usually learn something when I do.

I don't have much patience for "right fighters". I just walk away from right fighting, waste of energy.

I'm usually pretty good at saying that I'm wrong.  I guess it depends on who I am arguing with.

I am one of those people who thinks carefully before speaking. As a rule, lol!  If I am not sure about something I tell whom ever I am speaking with, "I am not sure",,,,  If I am wrong about something I am pretty quick to own up.  I am not prideful that way.  However, I can be persnickity when I know I am right, I do not give in easy if the other person will not let up.  LOL!  It is usually my husband/ 

I don't know why, but the last few years I have this almost photo-memory thing.  I remember great detail, dates, even clothes myself or other were wearing. I worked in a museum as co-ordinatoer for years, and did tons of geneology and tours.  I could run up the dates, marriages, biths , etc of founding fathers.  What is that about?? I sort of scare myself.  I was hoping it wasn't some brain disease or something, hahahahaha, lol!

I always vetted info, so when I spoke I was pretty darn sure it was the truth,  But who knows.
