Why's It Hard To Admit Being Wrong?

I personaly have no problem admitting I am wrong when I am wrong I won't say I am wrong just to make others feel better though. I also well not agree that I am things that I am not .I have had people try to paint me as being something I am not they wanted me to admit I was this or admit I was wrong to say I was not it .I would not because I am not and was not what they said people in my life know this of me so do my friends and I knew it about me as well .I think if it is provable thats one thing but an opinion another .

Human pride. To admit you are wrong is to swallow your own pride which is a difficult thing to do. The same is true with those who easily admits to their wrongs as quick as a flash everytime, they are projecting an image of being upright, again boosting the pride within them. Having said so, there are people who are level headed and reasonable enough who after realizing their mistakes, admit to their wrong doing.

maybe those peoples are having a great self esteem, and doing all their best to be a guidance for others ? or possibly that if they admit that they're wrong then their credibility is fallin, or there's some fear inside them that something bad will happends if they admit that they're wrong.
