Argumentative Ole Fool
Now I am never wrong, I shall just write that down again so that it goes in…
I AM NEVER WRONG!
I am always right, if I start off wrong I will end up right, so I am never wrong!
I will twist and turn, and go on and on, until you are either so confused you don’t know how or why it started, or you are so fed up that you will just agree with me. Because I am never wrong!
I know I am like it, and I know that I am doing, and I know that it totally infuriates you, and I will let you into a secret, for a second in time I do feel guilty as I start the process. But I am never wrong, so I would never admit this to you, and I will not give in. I have started it now the spiral is going, so I have to continue to make sure I am right by the end of it.
No one would know this if they met me, I don’t like confrontation, I don’t complain. I don’t really argue, people outside the home can really upset me when they say something and I wont respond.
But with you I am never wrong and I can’t stop myself from doing it.
And I know how close to the line I have come, the line of you walking away and never coming home, all because I can’t be wrong. But even with that looming over me I CAN’T stop what I have started. I know that I am pushing and pushing and pushing and that I SHOULDN’T but the words arguing my point are still coming out of my mouth. God I wouldn’t want to be you sometimes.
It is like an addiction and I can’t control it when it starts. You tell me that you got the point, so I say it again, I bring it up again, I twist what you have said. I keep on and on, it is not good enough for you say I am right and you are wrong I have to feel that you feel it. I have to almost make you buckle to be satisfied…
I hate this side of me…
It is a side I don’t like to see, and right here and now, I want to say SORRY for all the times I have done it to you.
But I also have to apologise as it will happen again as….
I just can not be wrong!
This post was written for Josie’s Writing Workshop I chose prompt number 4. Tell me your worst habit.
Go over and have a look at the other great posts for the Writing Workshop
Oh I know this feeling….
I’m a lot the same ya know!! I’m always right too!
So lets fight over which of us is wrong 😉 haha!!
Yeah… my old relationships… looking back I feel fucked off at myself for my arguementative ways, and my “I’m always right” attitude! I’m not so bad these days… or I think I’m right in saying that I think I am better 😉
Well you know I am right, as I started this so obviously you are wrong because you came into this too late…..
You understand right lol xxx
I know that feeling!
So glad I am not the only one! xx
Aww.. it’s always more difficult with the people we are closest to, isn’t it? I’ve had to work on that aspect of my personality… Like you I hate confrontation too though.. It’s interesting.
Such a brave post. Stopped by from Josie’s.
Thank you that is so nice of you. It did take some writing I have to admit. You do take it out on the ones closest and that is so hard sometimes as they get the brunt of it.
very brave share, it is hard w/those closest to us. am stopping by from Josie’s as well.
Thank you for stopping by and thanks for leaving a comment. You do feel sorry for the ones that our closest to us as they do get the brunt of the deal don’t they? xx
Trouble is, my husband and I share this trait… I wonder if our baby will too. Now that would make parenthood (first baby due October) interesting.
Great piece, and the Writing Workshop looks good too.
Oh good luck, Baba has my other halves short fuse and my temper, and we can tell that at only 22 months old. I feel that it could lead to household trouble in later years!
Good luck with the babe, and thanks for reading xx
