My wife says she thought I was Mr. Right when she first met me, but it took a few years of marriage before she realized my first name was Always.

Seriously I am very quick to admit I was wrong and apologize, even if I wasn't. What's the big deal about being right, who cares? Same thing about it being someone's fault, no fault needed, let's just get on with the party.

oldbuddy, your first sentence reply made me giggle!

i have no problem admitting when i'm wrong. then again, in circumstances where my husband is involved, i rarely am.  :)  but seriously, if i am wrong i have no problem admitting it and apologizing for the error when necessary.

as for pride, i'll admit that there are times when i am so convinced that i am right that i will go out of my way to try to prove that i am.  :)

I am the exact way.  I can and will admit and apologize when Im wrong but I expect everyone to extend the same to me and if they continue I need to prove them they arent.

I do admit when I’m wrong........I don’t  see the point in being so full of pride that you can’t admit when you wrong...........it just bring more problems and more arguments which make a certain situation worse.

I have trouble admitting when I am wrong. I usually will, but much later and I still won't admit 100 percent fault.

I thought this was a question out of the Big Book at first.  Its amazing how many things transfer from that book to everyday life, even for people who don't drink.  I think everyone should read it, your life will be better for it.

When I am wrong I definately admit it.  Sometimes it is real hard to do but I feel better when in the end. ;)
