What did you last argue with someone about?

I answered this in this survey:
http://surveycentral.org/?S=329671&V=12516

That I needed more clothes (Mom). And that I should be able to decide whether or not I want my denim jacket shortened to rib-cage level (trend that will be over in a month here, but who cares).

I don't know if it was much of an argument. Thursday night we were celebrating my friend's birthday. She seemed to be quite content to sit at a patio bar and drink herself silly. Everyone else wanted to go out dancing. She finally sent everyone (but one) off dancing.

Hubby's job

Don't want to talk about it. It would take me too long to type it all out, and it would just get me irritated.

*shrugs*

I last argued with my SO, Dominic. It was about him waking me up wanting sex. I hadn't slept in 32 hours and was exhausted. He woke me up after I had only been asleep an hour or so.

It was interesting, really: I took someone's complaint and - aloud - turned the situation around to have me playing the lead role. I apparently do this a lot, but I'm really only trying to better relate to what's being described to me, not to compare what I do to what they do. For example, he said, "I can't keep dealing with the District Manager this way..." and I said, "So...that would be like me, in my job, dealing with --".
The other person (my SO, with whom, over the years, I have never had an argument) said, "No, because we're talking about me - my situation, not yours!" That led me into apologizing in a tone I used to give my ex-wife many years ago. "Well, I'm fudging sorry, I was only trying to..."
Wow. He and I have never once raised our voices to each other in over six years.
But...the results of it: I can't help but to pay more attention to how I extend myself in listening to others, now knowing how it's not necessary to "prove" I understand what they're saying by rewording the speakers' into my own version of their story. And...he says he'll grow more tolerant to my habit of doing that, and he'll try to listen for what might be valuable in it if I slip.
We seem to resolve things quickly that way: One will respectfully agree to "knock off" what bothers the other while the other agrees to stop being bothered by it so much. What that creates is an immediate middleground with little chance of disappointment. It also holds ourselves responsible to continue working on the same problem for as long as it takes - because, by design, the failure, to me, can only be mine and, to him, the failure can only be his.

So...after the sex, then you two argued about it? (Just kidding.)
What was the result of that, if you care to share?

I argued with my sister about the computer

I don't remember. I "debated" with my brother about an hour ago over his belief in abolishing benefits for "scallies". *sigh*

Bandaids. I won.

Last night I got into an argument with my managers because they were both telling me to do something different. We were really busy and it was pretty frustrating...

Sounds like...retail, TM?

Did not!

*smack*

I have blocked it to the darkest recess of my subconcious. Y'see I'm the type who sees argueing as a character flaw (which may not be true) so if I have ever argued then I supress it and pretend once again that I am a calm peace loving person who doesn't do things like that. Look, look how stable I appear on the surface. You'd hardly know.

I can't remember but it must have been at work; my husband and I don't argue (hardly...) but I work with a few idiots and they can't discuss things - they have to argue.
They're Italian, it's a family business; you should hear their "discussion" around the lunch table. I stopped eating there because it was so upsetting - you'd think they were about to draw guns and shoot each other! One day, I walked into the lunch room, and no one was talking - total silence! So I had to ask them if they were fighting or something...

Actually it's a restraunt

Sorry, my bad.

It's been so long since I've had a real argument that I can't remember!

AND SueBee...Don't make me have to pull the car over!

The same answer I gave in actress's survey. If you want to know, click on the link as I don't want to take the bother of re-typing it all again. How did this pass in the first place as it's so similar to actress's survey?

No big deal...

The same exact thing as I said on the survey you gave the link to.

I yelled at him and he got pissed. Then, I rolled over and went back to sleep. We've had make-up sex since then, though.

Are we there yet?

*smack*

Who would use the washroom first

Dunno.

bobofwestgate, go into advanced stats to see my argument for this survey. I see two entirely different questions here. This survey asks about the LAST argument you had, and the other one asks which argument in your lifetime stands out the most. VERY different, I'd say.

OIC

*cums*

Whether or not I should have to move up to the first stand in orchestra.

I won.

Smoking in the bedroom & him wanting to drink another glass of wine.

It was about how valuable an asset to an economy tourism is. Not the most interesting argument in the world.

Who wanted to smoke in the bedroom, and why didn't you want him to have another glass of wine (as if I can't guess).

it was a work thing!!! ugh!!

He wanted to smoke in the bedroom.I don't smoke.We have an agreement that he would smoke in the bathroom,cause the last time he got drunk his cigarette fell into the bed(waterbed)& almost set the bed on fire.

He was already high enough.He didn't need another glass of wine.He gets sloppy when he drinks past his limitations. "MAN'S GOT TO KNOW HIS LIMITATIONS." When he drinks too much he gets to doging & cussing. It makes for a bad situation when he gets that way. Last time he got that way the cops came. It's not like THEY don't already know us,but it goes beyond embarsssing after that. If we don't have an ambulance or fire truck out side our house it's ALWAYS a cop car or two. Seriously! We're the only house on the block with so much drama. We're finally getting better,tho.

An online argument with Sue, the backstabbing dog. Actually, I accidentally deleted one of her user names from my buddy list yesterday, then tried to add it again this morning. She sent me back a message saying "Fudge you, Julie. Just delete all my user names." I told her that it was an accident, and she typed a string of obscenities and threats, and told me to fudging get her names the hell out of my buddy list, and never to talk to her at work again.
The weird thing is that a bunch of us went out Friday and had a blast. Then, her section had to work Saturday, but I did not work Saturday. I figure someone must have said something to Sue about me on Saturday. But Sue should know by now that I have been a good friend to her, and she should give me a chance. It hurt at first, but I don't care. I will just leave her alone, and if she tries to apologize or explain, I will just ignore her. It didn't hurt me one bit.

I'm sorry people can be such buttheads sometimes. ((HUG))

Thanks. ((((hugs you back))))

I was in the kitchen about to make oatmeal-raisin cookies and talking with my boyfriend. As he left the room, he turned off the light. I was stupefied. I went off on him about his being inconsiderate and childish. I don't know what made me so angry but we both got over it. The cookies were delicious.

I haven't had an argument in so long that I can't remember.

Stick around.

haha!

Now you're scaring me!

Are you trying to say that people around here are argumentative? And just what proof do you have to back THAT up with?!

Ok, I take it back.
But if the new guy wasn't watching...
tsk tsk

Okay. I was just thinking we should break him in properly.

Come to think of it, you're right. #&%$@ you, SueBee!
heh heh

Hey, what's that you're calling me?!

I'm now calling you "female" - and that deserves a lot of respect. I just realized this (again). [See my post to you in http://surveycentral.org/survey/12672.html to see where all that came from. Yet again, I rant, haha.]

You're so sweet! ((hug))
