You see, I just argued someone over his bad perception on maturity (he said cursing isnt immature) and some other stuffs like modern music isnt creative, etc. Do I have bad personality? I always get into arguments, and try to tell them what I think is correct, but at end (in chats extending to hours) They say "YOU WON HAHAHA" and It feels bad, Is it seriously bad? I really think it is, what should I do

By the way, argument on maturity started when he called a girl immature because she did not cursed and fought back when he called her bitch and thot

For the longest time I made it a personal philosophy to avoid any argument at all costs. It kept my happy and I never developed any enemies but it left me feeling apathetic which meant that I never really developed any strong relationships.
In retrospect I think moderation is probably key. Speak out about what you believe in but don't let your differences dehumanise people and try your hardest to understand where other people are coming from.

I'm the same as you OP, only I constantly try to argue people's choices in technology (I'm the stereotypical GNU/Linux Freetard Vim/Emacs guy). I genuinely think I'm right, but most people probably don't care, so I should tone it down a notch and/or move my conversations onto image boards. No one's yet complained though.

>>321742 I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.

Only have arguments when they are worth having. Protip: they usually aren't. Especially not online.
No one likes an argumentative person. No one cares if you are right. That's why they shrug and move on. Which is what you should be doing more often. If you feel like you must convince someone, try asking critical questions instead of starting pointless arguments.

Having arguments just means you have a strong opinion, just let people have their own and be open about their thoughts.

Arguments IRL are not needed unless you really have to make someone change their opinion But talking face to face, you can't whip out every scientific research paper or factual sources from memory, the winner is whoever has loudest vocal cords or stronger feelings about the subject Internet ftw

Modern music is so broad now that its impossible to say its uncreative. If we are talking about POP music then yea its uncreative

Arguing and duscussing stuff, isn't bad as long as you don't force your opinion on anyone in the end

Arguing about things that are clearly subjective is pointless, which is what the two topics you mentioned are. Plus you're saying what you think "is correct". Then you included a 2nd post to show the argument to, I assume, validate your stance. So yea, I'd say that's a bad personality trait. You don't have to be correct about everything, OP, especially if it's a topic that you can't be correct about.

What you could do? Not to sure to be honest. I'd say find common ground. For example your friend says, "modern music isn't creative. Blah blah" You could give your friend a fact that you can both agree on. "I don't know about that, but the artists sure spend a lot of time creating their works, though" Then leave it at that. If they can't agree on facts, then leave just it. At that point you know it's definitely useless

>>321628 Did she say stuff like "F-word" or "heck"? Because I could understand that sort of filtering being seen as immature, as you're still swearing, but don't want the consequences of swearing.

If you are surrounded by the wrong kinds of people and feel like your life needs changing, you probably habe the wrong personality. Luckily, personality is actually not out of someones control at all. YOU are the only being controling your thoughts and actions. Arguing is an action. Also everything in moderation.

>>324297 Just because it's pointless, doesn't mean, you shouldn't do it Most things in life are subjective, but we still discuss them, if it's just to share your opinion/hear the opinions of others or even just to start a conversation Discussion doesn't automatically equal a war of opinions You just took part in a discussion yourself, by answering this thread
Discussing isn't bad, forcing opinions is

You're probably fine if you have enough insight to ask people if you're too pushy or aggressive. Just try to not take these things to heart and know when to get out of a discussion.
