If you were a coward, you wouldn't have had the gutts to disagree.
Think about it. You aren't confused about being called a coward, you are confused on how to resolve the disagreement. Use wisdom and listen carefully to what he's saying. It takes wisdom to conquer this succesfully.
Read communication books. Don't dump someone just because of a tiff and what good would asking "it takes one to know one" do? For goodness sakes that never resolves anything. You'll wind up with 1 broken relationship after another, unless you resolve the issues.
It's a simple disagreement mixed with a bit of immature name calling. Conquer this and you'll win the next one too. Read the book below, don't be scared by the title, it's juicy and informative.

Hi There!
There's no need for you to be confused with this no more, it's simple...he called you a coward for you disagreeing with him..Why??Because "Men are always right" well that's what they like to think anyway, trust me this happens almost everyday with me and my boyfriend.What you have to do?Ask him,Why he called you a coward for having a different opinion?Try not to get hurt about it,Let it pass over you and think how childish he is to call you a coward.

what were you discussing? Could make a difference. However, you are intitled to you own opinions, if they differ from his it does not make you a coward,it shows that you are intelligent and can think for yourself. He sounds controling & that is unacceptable.

I don't know... what was the issue, and what was your position? It could be that the b/f thinks you ARE a coward for legit reasons!!
However, I suspect that his train of thought just ran out of steam, and the little choo choo just blew its whistle...

Sounds like he got defensive. That's the only reason for name calling. If its' a big deal to you, demmand an apoligy. If it doesnt' bother you, let it slide.

So people when they cannot justify theire position or they realize that you have a very valid point, try to confuse the issue by belittling another point of view. It seems like your boyfriend cannot justify his point of view and to try to change your point of view has resorted to belittling you. Drop the loser as he will only get worse.

disagreeing is not a form of cowardice...it takes courage to disagree. Tell your boyfriend that by disagreeing to him you are holding on to what you've believed. Let him be proud to have you, his girl, who knows where to stand...and to have faith in what she believed in.
