angela89 Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 We have these silly little arguments once in a while that don't mean much. Just your standard disagreements on who said whats, dissecting little conversations, etc. I'm not an aggressive person, so I normally make my case and point, he'll make his. Then after all of 10 minutes, he'll say "You're right, I'm sorry I ___" ... How can someone admit defeat that quickly? I know he doesn't like arguing, so is he just saying it to shut me up? He claims that he's not a pushover, and always stands his ground, but these little things happen all the time. Anyone with similar gf/bf? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rosephase Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 um... my guess is he just doesn't want to fight. That he isn't a push over because he doesn't really care about what you are fighting about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go Habs Go Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 Odds are he's saying that to shut you up. I doubt he really believes he's wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LivingToday Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 There isn't an answer here that you are going to be satisfied with to be honest. If he's a 'pushover', then there it is. And if he isn't because he just wanted to end the fight or quiet things you aren't happy. I say don't pay much mind to it, what point is there in fighting anyways...

In the Dark Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 When you love someone....out of fear some people mainly men bend over a take it. So.....would you want him to make his point, have these little arguments turn into an all out long argument over something petty into something out of control, causing drama and a not so boring day....

Theblueman123 Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 He's just saying to to end the fight, not because he believes that he was in the wrong. Fighting is stupid anyways, and I do that too. I cause almost 0% drama in my relationships so when the chick does I just try to end it as quick as possible. I really, really hate it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you ever apologize on your behalf for irrationality, miscommunication or misunderstanding? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
In the Dark Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 Yes indeed.....the unbelievable irrationality and no matter what you say is right or it is twisted around or it is ignored. I like arguments black and white. None of this bringing up....but remember....when......that's what I avoid by keeping it short. Because I will always have ammo as well and start being petty to win. If you think he is a pushover think again. He is the peace keeper by being the one who is able to keep his mouth shut. If you did the same you would also be thinking you are in the right if you truly are. But that comes down to whether you are logical or irrational about being right.

Joshb Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 Because us men are taught at a young age that you cant beat a women in an argument. as Chris Rock said in bigger and blacker ..something along the lines of you cant beat a woman in an argument, because men use something called logic, and that * * * * goes right out the window with a woman haha. If he agrees over minor things no problem, but if these are big life changing issues and hes saying sorry maybe hes a push over...maybe hes just letting the senesless small things go cause its not worth it. Why are you so concerned? you looking for a good ol fight? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chriz Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 Girls just don't like admitting they're wrong for being irrational or for over reacting. Guys will agree or say something round about (perhaps not really agreeing but sounding like they do) to shut the girl up. More common if the guy is generally non confrontational.
