Gawd, don't I know it!

Mine actually got into an argument about where something was close to the
house. When she pointed out the incorrect direction, I said, "No, it's over
there" (she was 90 degrees off). So she argued (I should'a said, "Yes dear.
You're always right.").

I then said let's check it out on the NAV screen on the new Prius. When I
showed her that her location was indeed wrong, she replied, "No the car is
wrong. You better go get it fixed or get another car."

Sheesh. Wimmens. Never can win an argument with one.....and live through
it!

Well, you should take this advice from a 'long married' old guy,
do you want to be RIGHT or do you want to be HAPPY ...

(govern yourself accordingly)

I've found that if you quietly make your correction then don't
press the matter is best...she'll eventually learn that you're
usually right and will give more credence to your correction...
you need to make damned sure that you're right before you correct
her though. :)

Good and sound advice.

Another would be if she "thinks" the navigation screen is wrong and indeed
told you the car needs to be fixed, then tell her you took it to the dealer
and they only charged you a mere $1700 for a new navigation CD update.

Then keep very, very quiet --- and then you'll remember you never can win a
fight with one, so don't even provoke one. Right may be right, but happy is
happy (even if "you" know it's wrong!).

Oh, and don't even think of saying "I told you so." You lose valuable
points right there (damhik!).

As I told my prospective son-in-laws: "you are getting married, not
joining a debating club. Give up the idea of winning an argument. You
win if and when the argument is over, and the best way to win is to say,
Darling you are right, and I was wrong, I apologize."

Smart man, but ironically, my stubbornly Polish husband is more like what
you're describing women as being. Example: Just yesterday on the way home
from church, this guy was pooooking along in front of us. I suggested he
pass the guy, but he refused. Instead, he tail-gated the guy the whole way,
until the guy took a right (Probably to get hubby off his arse). My
daughter and I just looked at each other and shook our heads.

Another example: Early in our marriage, he saw me bundling his socks
(Tucking one sock into the other, so that they stay together). He told me
he thought it was a waste of time. I told him that it beats hunting for the
other sock when you want to wear them. I wasn't about to argue with him, so
I just continued to do it with mine, and stopped doing it for him. (In
other words, I kept quiet!)

A few weeks later, I found him bundling his socks. I knew better than to
say anything then either, or he would have said something like, "Well, since
you always did this with my socks, I'm used to it." - Heaven forbid he admit
I was *right*!

MEN!

:-P

I agree...the best procedure is to calmly state "No, the correct
answer is XXX" (and ONLY when you KNOW you're right), then smile
and shut up...don't continue, just smile, maybe say softly, "ok
then". Don't ever state that 'You're right' or 'I'm wrong' etc
just to end an argument...

(unless you're proven to be wrong of course)

With a woman, you can be RIGHT or you can be HAPPY. Your call.

Actually, an example of how SANE, logical, rational people think. Of course,
that is same as being conservative.
