Is It Worth It To Be Right?

Hey guys!


Just a lil bit of advice for ppl in relationships with two strong minded individuals and a past with arguments that lasted longer than your recollection of how they even began: let it go. Maybe in the beginning you wanna prove who's boss or your maturity level hasnt reached the revelation that some things are just not that important. No matter the excuse, you should get to a point where you've learned your partner and yourself enough to know when to bring out the white flag.

Being right doesnt always mean you win. You could push an issue so far into the ground that you have to leave your relationship there as well. Then you wish you would have never let it get to that point. Being stubborn and argumentative gets you nowhere in relationships or in life for that matter. Sometimes you have to take a step back and decide if being right means more to you than your partner.

Even if you know the other is wrong, it may not be your job to teach them that lesson. And majority of people will realize on their own if given the opportunity to think for themselves instead of being force-fed what you think should be their opinion. You may just have to, for the sake of peace and longevity, suck it up and let the other person be "right". (even if its only in their mind lol)

It gets to a certain point where you know you and your partner will bump heads and you can never agree on everything. Be prepared to take the backseat sometimes and remember no one is perfect. Mistakes will be made and arguing about who's right could be spent doin things to enhance your relationship, verses tearing it down.

Hey, even a broken clock is right twice a day! :-)
