I hear this a lot, but I really have to say, I never do this. If I have an opinion, I'm going to make it and have a lot of evidence and I'm going to just know I'm right. I think that most of the time, I am right. I'm pretty sure of myself. I like to know what I'm talking about. If I know I'm wrong, I might admit it, but I don't think I'm going to be wrong in the first place. I try to make sure I'm right before arguing, or at least, well, not wrong! There is nothing worse than being wrong!

I'm not always right. I try to not state an opinion unless I think I am right. I try not to say anything unless I know I'm right. I state my opinion about things and offer advice. People can take or leave it which is their right.

No, I'm not always right. The whole point of discussions and arguments is to sway the other side and if someone makes a valid point or challenges my opinions in a thoughtful way, I can admit I'm wrong if their argument makes me agree with them. If I was right all the time I'd be very bored! If I'm wrong, I've learned something. If I'm right all the time, I must be very ignorant.

I'm afraid I AM a bit of a know-all, and sometimes swear black and blue something's right - when in fact, it's not. Sometimes my memory really does play tricks on me, and I feel I remember something very clearly when everyone else is disagreeing. Often they can actually prove I'm wrong, which is pretty embarrassing - but I'm putting it down to old age.

I am NOT always right. I am just a human being. Nobody is perfect. We are subject to mistakes. I am very sure that it never came into my mind that I am always right. If I think I am right, I will convince people. If they won't mind me, I don't care it's their lost. If I commit mistakes, I am very much willing to be corrected.

Yes! I am always right and I am always right about being right .. Hhehhe .. No , I am not always right , although sometimes I get a bit heated if I think I was right . I know those people that when you know they are wrong and try to prove them wrong they will flip out . Sometimes I will let it drop and wait patiently till a month later it is proven they are wrong then I point it out smugly and giggle .
