When do you disagree?

I don't think there's anything wrong with disagreeing as long as it's done respectfully.

Whenever I disagree, I won't say I agree. I might just keep quiet, I might say "I have different opinion", "We think differently", "I don't agree, but I respect your view"..... I agree that that's no right or wrong, we just have different thoughts.

I didn't want to be accused of pushing so wrote my own post on this subject.

I disagree with someone when something they say doesn't sit right with me, Wendy. I have disagreed with you several times. I don't see a problem. It is not like most things would matter enough to either of us that we would stop talking to each other over a simple disagreement. I will agree that we clashed pretty hard over my doctor, but I believe I am right and you think I am wrong. We have no choice but to agree to disagree over that situation. Agreeing to disagree is not necessarily a bad thing. We are all adults on myLot, as far as I know. There will be disagreements. People will get upset and some will stop talking with others. It happens and an adult moves on afterward. Nobody ever said we are all cookie cutter images of each other. We don't have to always agree to remain friends. Life doesn't work that way.

I suppose I try to put forth why I think like I do then I'd probably just agree to disagree.

It depends on the topic. ;))

I am pretty straightforward, so I usually say what I think, especially when it comes to politics. We can disagree in a nice way, without trying to hurt the other person's feelings.

I have an assignment right now...I will return tomorrow to voice my opinion. Just so that the post does not go away..lol

When I was a lot younger, I often disagree .. now that I am old and grey, I don't have much time to disagree anymore..

And betimes, it is best to just keep schtumm.

The world would be crazy if we all agreed with each other. Respect is how to handle it all.

It depends on the issue, sometimes I don't view things as that important-some issues I do view as important, but what I'm willing to argue about is again, more selective...as well, in some cases, I know I will not change a person's view, so I tend to not waste our time on something that will just remain the same. Often in the theological world, there is a fair amount of arguing...somewhere along the line an idea struck me...if you are bothered by heresy, then simply teach orthodoxy. That is an oversimplification (what is heresy, and what is orthodoxy? relevant terms, or historical definitions, and by who?), but to a simple degree, it has it's merit.

I don't easily agree to disagree. Nor can I agree with whatever point is put forward just to maintain good rapport. It's sometimes not even about being right or wrong. If I don't understand their point of view, I can't agree with them. I just need to understand from where they are coming from. you know. So, I push it and try to discuss it, try to get them to explain things I don't understand so that I could understand. That is when I know whether it is time to just agree to disagree or give up!

If it's an opinion that could possibly hurt someone or is damaging or debies another person's experience (ie police brutality isn't real), then I will address it. But a lot of times, for opinions like those, people ignore facts and anecdotes and get so mad when they're presented with them.

I generally agree to disagree - I don't like getting into arguments.

'tis tricky to answer yer query 's such depends'n the situation, the facts't hand. i do my best to be open-minded. sometimes though 'tis best to jest agree to disagree, showin' respect fer their point f' view 'n call't a day.

Sometimes hard to decide if agree or disagree, but if required to do so, I will just be very careful no to offend the person.

I only disagree when I'm passionate about the subject matter. These days I don't care enough about most things to disagree! lol

I sometimes disagree with things on here then decide I just can't be bothered to get into it. On a couple of discussions lately there have been cultural differences and some opinions expressed would be unbelievable over here...I just decided to leave it. Mainly because the people who were expressing the opinions just say "ok, thanks for that" when you respond to them...like talking to a brick wall.

If the speaker is my good friend, I would like to show my opinion directly.If a stranger,I will be quiet when I disagree.
