Why is it hard to admit your wrong?

maybe because people are so egoistic and we dont want to accept the fact that someone is better than us.

ur discussion is all about a big subject in psychology. whatever it may be when u think to do some work, at that time in ur mind u will agree with urself that u r doing right, and after somedays : if someone says that is wrong, the situation at the time before u start the work really build a strong thinkings that u r not wrong. i dont know whether u got it or not, after reading this sit for a while and think for a second

This is a very good question , it is always hard to admit when a person is wrong . I think the reason for this would be that everyone wants to be accepted in life and somehow being wrong is just not acceptable to people . I know I hate being wrong about anything , I somehow feel that I messed something up even though everyone is wrong at some point or other .
