How do you deal with people who cant stand to be wrong?

Question

I'm a 14 year old girl. Live with my mum and dad every other week. Both mum and dad has a boyfriend/girlfriend.

Mums boyfriend is nice..

Its just that whenever mum and Jason (her boyfriend) talk together, it always ends in an argument. Its always about something stupid, like whats the most effective way of doing a sit-up, it really gets on my nerves. Its ok that they discuss things, but I wish Jason would stop being an ***. He has to be right every time and because he is such a decent public speaker, you cant argue against him even though he only talks bullshit.

Last time this happened I seriously considered pouring my drink over him, but mum threatened that i had to clean the carpet after wards so I didn't.

How do you deal with someone who always has to be right?

How do you make him understand that he doesn't know everything?

Answer 1

do not fight with but just tell these type of people hey you are right in though its wrong because they know its wrong but want to pick a fight so the best way is just go along with them they will sit down one day and see that you gave them 2 ears in the back of there head lol best way people who fight and want to be right all the time have nothing better to do so they waste there time picking on someone else to feel better about themself. just smile and walk away good luck  

Answer 2

lol i hate them people aswell.

Answer 3

Unless you can show him cold hard evidence that he's wrong, there's not much you can do. The best thing to do is let him be a blowhard and go on while you tune him out, all the time acting like you're agreeing with him, then do what you think is right.
