What would you feel if somebody contradicts your opinion.

Yeah. I think it would depend on the issue. Some issues I won't bend on. Other times someone might actually show me a new way to look at things. I have found that when you are totally adamant about things, and you think a person is so wrong, sometimes later on you begin to see their point of view.

Everybody is entitled to his own opinion. I am a person who believes that everything can be resolved through having an exchange of thoughts. However in some cases things doesn't come out as planned. If anybody is not amenable of my opinion, I would just listen and would tell the person that I respect his opinion and I am expecting that would do the same. Have a nice day!

Are you talking of the responses and comments in the discussions? If so i will take it lightly because all are free to express their opinions. Thanks for this discussion friend.

My reaction would depend on who that person is. Coz there are people who just wants to contradict everytime and would insist that they are always right. For people like them, it is hard to win a battle. They are close-minded people. I would not waste my time and energy explaining what I really think. But I would just throw a word or two to prove my point then I'd turn my back. I don't want to be stuck with a person like that.

Fine by me as long as they have some facts to back it up and thy can argue properly. Some people have a passionate opinions and they can't help it. But if it just pure ideology and no data to back it up, in my opinion, that opinion is still need of work. They can claim to kingdom come but that will not hold water when presented with evidence. Many facts might contradictory but I don't usually chnage my opinion no matter how much distortion the other party or the media seems to paint it. Beside,s there's the 'we agree to disagree' option.

My opinion is my opinion. If someone is asking for it I will say what it is. It's not important to me if someone does agree with me. I don't feel the need to discuss it (anymore) or explain.

It depends on the other person's opinion. If it was completely baseless and the person is quite insistent and wouldn't try to have an open mind, then yes, I would be annoyed. But other than that, I'm willing to listen to other people's opinions. It is quite interesting, how people think differently. You get to see a different angle of the matter, and it's quite enlightening.

I and my brother are unfortunately not in good terms right now because of one thing. He thinks he's old enough to know what he's doing when he's not. Are you old enough if you don't even know how to take care of your own laundry, throw your own garbage in the right place or even clean your own room? It's really frustrating because he's the only brother I have that is still schooling and I get the responsibility to watch over him and I think I never missed any reminders but it's just working for him. Well, I guess it's no longer my problem but his'.

I would try to find ways to convince that person that what I am saying the right thing. But if he refused to get my point through his/her thick head I will just let that person be. Some people are just born plain stubborn and nobody can force them to see reality.
