Can you admit when you are wrong?

Question

I used to believe in the labour party

Answer 1

I can Twigs

but I'm not a politician. They see things differently - pride and reputation is all important to them, honesty loses out

Answer 2

sometimes

Answer 3

Certainly can, and most importantly to myself first.  Then I'm not in denial and can change [where possible] what I was wrong about.  Sometimes I am wrong in my general opinions, like you suggest with the Labour party, or wrong about choices made.  Learn from these mistakes and do not look back too much.  If wrong in relation to another person, always admit it and be sorry.  It brings respect from them as well as self-respect.  You know how you feel yourself if someone else takes the trouble to admit a mistake.  Its good.

Answer 4

Nope I'm never wrong.

Just misunderstood

Answer 5

Yes but its not often that I am wrong

Answer 6

Yes I always do(most of the time)

only 1-5 times i didn't admit it

Answer 7

I have been a labour party supporter all my working life, but labour have gone so far to the right they are more conservative than the conservatives. I don't think I was wrong to vote for them at the last election, but feel they have let us down. My problem is, who do I vote for at the next election? I can't vote labour be cause they have become too much like the conservatives. That would make it stupid to vote conservative. That leaves the lib/dem's. They have always said they will give us everything we want, but we will pay higher tax's to pay for it. Notice how quiet they become when there is a tax crisis, like now.

Sorry, you asked a simple question and I gave a complex answer.

Yes I do admit when I'm wrong. Some of the askers on here will testify to that.
