I was wrong

It was my fault I would always be the first to admit when I am in the wrong, I think anyone that can put their hands up and admit they are wrong, show a strong sense of character. I would always try to resolve any difference with someone by talking to them, Although I do come across a lot of people who would never admit to making a mistake and maybe that is the biggest mistake someone can make. I just can't sometimes understand the people that will argee a point when they know they are worng. Maybe it is a sense of pride or something ?

I am NEVER wrong so why would I admit it?????lol Actually I am usually really honest - too much so for my own good and am usually the first one to stick my hand in the air and admit my mistakes - unless it is with the other half and then once more I am never wrong! lol xxx

i do take the blame IF its my fault.. but i refuse to apologize for something thats not or that people think is.. so many people just want to blame some one else or twist things to where they think its some one elses fault when its just them avoiding it or taking offense because some one dared to point out when they screwed up..

to be big enough to admit you're wrong is good. i am one of the person who will admit that i am wrong and will say sorry. depend who the other person is they often wont admit they are wrong, but push the blame off on someone else. i have no problme meeting someone half way or in the middle. but i will not take the blame for someone else. i am often misjudge by people. and if they cant take the time to really get to know me, oh well it's thier lost not my. i could careless what anyone think about me, it's my close knit family and friends that matter

i always admit when im wrong, it definitely takes a lot for someone to admit they were wrong and own up to that mistake and people appreciate that and it really says something about the person. my boyfriend also admits when he is wrong and it makes our relationship easier in the sense that there's no small things that drag on and on when they could have been resolved so long ago

IF (and that is a big IF) I am wrong I will be the first to admit it I am not perfect and sometimes (not often) I am not right about something

I find it much easier to let it go when they own up to being wrong. I admit to feeling rather self righteous when I take the blame and that is not very nice of me.

If I really am wrong and I realise then I apologise and I do so in a way that the other person is sure that I am really sorry. I have had it happen then that the other person just huffs off never to be seen of or heard of again and others that have become resl friends just because they never thought anyone would ever apologise. I have also had a time when I apologised but the other person insisted that it was them that was wrong and that it was not my mistake but theirs. It takes all sorts to make a world and if things sort themselves out all well and good - if they don't, well maybe it was for the best in the first place.

Yes, I most definately admit if I am wrong. I also admit when I've misread something or misunderstood something (if I'm speaking with another). Even as a teacher I've admitted when I'm wrong, especially when using Think Alouds in the classroom. If I am reading something and do not understand I ask for clarification first before I make an assumption. I feel it is fair for the other person and I would expect this in return. However, when I am right and know that I am right, I do not simply give in with false information, or just so the other person can feel better. That's never been my goal as a teacher. It's not fair and it's a terrible disservice. I do try to find new ways of explaining, and sometimes that may involve literally showing by example, but I do continue to try and show the truth. I do believe strongly that when someone cannot be corrected or resents it that it is their ego speaking, not their true self. The ego has a lovely way of creating a false sense of reality in that it will tell you that you've been slighted, humiliated, or whatever else it makes up instead of accepting that perhaps it is ok to hear the truth of a given matter. The ego does not like to be wrong, that's the plain and simple truth of it. Thus, I try not to be too hard on those who are continually resentful if I present or show where they wrong on something. I think all and all we simply have to do such with as much compassion and love as we can. With some human interactions we can meet at compromise, but in others we must be willing to know what is right and what is wrong. For example, we can meet in the middle about how we tie our shoes. However, we cannot compromise on the posted speed limit. I find that I don't really keep track of those who have been wrong or not. I take each episode as it occurs and let it go after the moment is over. I am beginning to understand that the more we live in the present moment, the less we keep up with who did what to us five minutes ago because it doesn't matter. Namaste-Anora

how about this one do you know people that even if they are wrong, who are so stubborn they will argue with you so much that you just give up even if you know that you are right and they are wrong, but they will argue so much that you end up not caring about it anymore.

That question is hard to answer.but i think if i make the things mess up ,i tend to own up to being wrong . we should take our reponsbility for what we did . that 's important for us to live a real and value life .
