Does It Make You Angry When People Don't Agree With You?

I am like you in most cases. I guess it would depend on the subject. I think i would get frustrated too if it were a subject that struck close to the heart and no one else could understand how or why I felt the way I did. ie. my car.. many many people find it ugly and I don't think it is and get upset that others have no artistic view.. lol.

in some instances, yes i get angry when someone don't agree with me. if i think my views are right i would insist that i'm right so sometimes they would just agree with me even if it's against their will. i know that it's not good to force someone to agree with you so i'm trying to change my attitude towards this.

No i won't get angry because if they want then they will come with me other they won't. So for that why i have to get angry??? Offcourse i got angry only once that is also regarding cricket. I told to my friends to watch cricket live in the stadium but they refused and went to movie. so on that time i got fully angry. Because i one and only in the stadium and my friends are not there.

I think sometimes you just have to listen to the idiotic views from other people who see the truth you are saying and yet they decide to pull the other way so as to maybe make you angry or something. I love having those people around because then they would make me funny and i would enjoy having them around, i cannot feel bored, because then if i say 1+2=3 then they would say no 1+2=13 then they try to explain that. But in most cases where you maybe need help on something then yes those people can frustrate you and may end-up angry

Usually I don't get angry when people don't agree with me. Because I know that the way we think are so different and other people have their own site of view. But I do get mad if the person disagree with me and saying it with anger, disrespect, or underestimate me.

I understand what you feel. I also experienced same especially if I know that I am in the right track. However,if I see to it that he cannot really understand me,then I just remain quiet.We cannot please everybody. We cannot force everybody to listen to our views in life.We all have different philosophies.We all have different beliefs. We all have different ideologies. And differences in each one of us is because of the way we were brought up. If we have open-minded parents, then we can grow as open-minded person also. However, those traits can also varies. A person can have narrow-minded parents but he,himself is open-minded. There are many factors who can contribute to this. And those factors can be found everywhere in our environment. When I am having conversation with others and they disagree with me I tried to find out the reason. I encourage them to talk and explain to me clearly their side. If I am wrong then I accept it. However if I found out that my statement is more valid than them, I do everything to explain it to them. If they later agree, then I feel satisfaction. It is because I had shared to others my belief which I am sure is right. God designed man as a rational being. That is what makes us superior than animal.We have the ability to think. We have the knowledge to tell the difference of right from wrong, of moral from immoral, of good from bad.Aside from that He also gave us hearts to feel.It is to know how to respect others opinion and still love other person even they have different opinions from us.

Life would be boring if every person in the world had the same opinion. I have my opinions and whoever I talk to is able to have their own opinion. There are some things I feel strongly against like abortion, fox hunting and war. However I remember that people's opinions differ and that is what I find interesting. I have a friend and his ex-girlfriend got angry with his opinions and so their relationship didn't last long. I like to be respectful and that comes from my traveling to see different cultures.

Hello, trickiwoo. I am like you in a way. I am pretty open minded and I can listen to other people's opinion. I do not get angry when they have a different opinion than I do. However, I do get angry when they try to force something into me. Oh, that makes me mad. They try to say that they are correct, but they try to make you believe that YOU are wrong. That really sucks and pisses me off! Nobody should ever try to force something into me. Beliefs and point of views are different and should be respect. Nobody should force their ideas into anybody. Respectfully, Munhozmib.

I only get md if people say something without fully understanding their own reasoning behind it. And then I get angry if people get upset by anyone who contradicts them. It is not true to the ar of conversation to only think you are number 1 and it is also only human to get so passionately involved with what you truely believe in. And then there are the people who do not believe in something that just want to rile up others. Such a diverse group we have.

i am on the same boat as you are. i can respect other peoples opinions on certain things but if that something is something that i believe of and i know it will do good for everyone and others seem not to notice i really feel bad about and and would tend to blow my top. i think this is really normal especially if this concerns other people and others seem not to care. happy mylotting!!!

I used to feel this way until I realized it's necessary for other people to have different opinion. If everyone had the same opinion about something, it would be so super boring, beyond imaginable. For me, it helps me understand why am I right or wrong, or to adjust my own opinion. Even if it's something that I strongly feel for. Also you have to realize that sometimes people who think differently come from different cultures, and their logic might not be the same as yours. And where the cultures mix there's always friction. When I am angry with someone who can't understand, I always try searching answer within myself before I blame them. 'Cause usually the person who's ranting has a problem, and not the person who is not ;)

Sometimes things just seem so clear and I don't understand why people can't see it. I do get frustrated, but I don't think it's fair of me to see it that way. I mean, the other person I am talking to feels just as strongly as I do about their opinion! So, I try not to get frustrated anymore. I try to see it for what it is and move forward. People won't always agree on everything.

sometimes i get so much affected when someone don't agree with me. but if i feel that i'm right i would insist that i'm right and start to argue.lol but i know that it's bad to force someone to agree with you because they also have their own views and opinions, i just can't help it.

I have found getting angry at people disagreeing with me is counterproductive. I never agree with someone who is angry with me so what utility is there in me getting angry. Instead I think of myself as water flowing over rock. Though the rock looks unmovable, water will always find a way around it. Take deep breaths, try again and if in the end you cannot convince them then respect their opinion as you would have them respect yours.

It used to raise my temper if it was concerning something that I'm passionate about. And really stupid people would make me mad. (By stupid, I mean the people who act like they know what they are talking about but in reality have no clue). But now, I figure live and let live. I don't have to answer for anyone else's stupidity. Just my own! :)

ya i agree with you most likely! i feel the same way when others don't understand my point of view and give me unbearable comments but i chose to be mouth sealed! i also don't understand the way they compliment or something, i feel like its a bad decision when telling them what i feel and finally i regret telling it. its really frustrating but nothing else to do! i just smile on them and cry later. happy mylotting!

No I don't get angry when people don't agree with me. We are individual in many ways and we must not expect others to think the same way as we are. Sometimes I just feel disappointed especially when I need their approval but that was far from being angry. Happy posting.

Even when you feel strongly about something you will find that there are some who would disagree. In fact they may feel just as strong about there side of the issue. We cannot make people see things our way by being angry with them. The only chance we have of changing someones mind is by reasoning with them. If we respect others as we would want to be respected we will be tolerant of their viewpoint even if we feel that they are wrong. And who's to say that we might not be wrong ourselves. Being passionate about a topic doesn't automatically make us right.

It depends really... I tend to think that a subject can be always be argued both ways. And in that case, when I do get into a heated discussion, I'd say (before my head explodes with frustration! LOL) that we should just agree to disagree about it. That ends it on a good note, for the most part. In some occasions I have been ticked off and I believe those were times when the other person was just repeating what I just said in a different way. For example, I'd say that there's more options with the subject that you're defending and then you'd say something like - no, there's just a broader set of choices on my side. And I'd be -- what?!? That's what I said! It's like that person's not even listening that I'm actually agreeing with that point about their subject! It has happened to me on occasion and that is truly frustrating! Like, they're not even listening, you know? So, after some time of talking or discussing something and if takes a turn for something less than constructive, I'd suggest that you do what I do -- tell them that you both have to just to agree to disagree about it -- before your head explodes from high blood pressure. :)

Yes I also feel the same sometimes. But I do believe that we as a human being, are all destined to have our own beliefs in things. We can decide whether we believe it or not. After all, we should use our freedom to choice what to believe and what is not to believe.When talking with friends with a specific topic we sometimes share different ideas. And since we are different from each other, we do also have our own beliefs that we should stand for it no matter what will happened. But sometimes it happened that when we are sharing our idea that we believe is true and the suddenly the majority of the group agrees that that idea is not true as they know it. Knowing that you are very knowledgeble that, that is true ofcoures you'll prove to them that you are correct. That happened to me once. During our group discussion in class. Yes, I got mad with them bad I just think that whaterver they think whether my idea is correct or not, I still believe that it is correct. Sometimes it hurts but we should understand that we have different stand in life.
