Blah Blah Blah!

A snapshot of me in an argument...

X: Why would you do something like that? It was so blah blah blah blah blah blah blah
blah...!
Me: Umm, I don't know...
X: What do you mean you don't know? We all blah blah blah blah blah blah blah...
Me: So?
X: So this that blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah...it could have blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah...
Me: Yeah, maybe...
X: I don't agree with the fact that blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah...
Me: Ok...
X: blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah...blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah...
Me: Ok...
X: blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah...
Me: Fine...i'll see...
X: blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah...blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah...
Me: Ok...yeah...can we please change the topic?!
X: blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah...

You get the picture?!!

Basically, I hate arguments...and I don't know whether the fact that I am bad at arguing is a cause or an effect of that...I would like to believe that I am peace loving, but I know that's only part of the truth...I am just never sure and some times if I am sure, I'd rather give the impression that I am not...

Anyhow...in most situations, its not as if I have nothing to say...but when I am put in a situation like this, I just develop a severe case of verbal handicap! Sometimes I know things cross the line and others are a little too harsh on me but still isn't one agitated person better than better than two?! Someone has to end it, rt...It could be the case that maybe I like being misunderstood...maybe I believe in waiting for a better opportunity to present my case...maybe I still haven't gotten over my fear of speaking my thoughts aloud...ever since I can remember I have cringed at seeing others argue...I don't understand people's needs to present their point of view...theoretically, an argument is a debate, a process of reasoning, a persuasive discourse...but don't they realize that they'll always be prejudiced and that in the end the only objective of arguing is to prove how right they are and how wrong the other person is??

The question now arises, what is a more agreeable alternative to arguing? Well, i'd say a little patience and time off...a lot of unnecessary issues get resolved just by the virtue of silence...in other cases, a bit of logic and in most severe disagreements, well...I really don't know...for I am too busy hiding under the garb of "I don't knows" and "okays..."!
