Im the type who will stubbornly fight against anything and everything that I dont agree with - I often get into arguments with laid back sorts who just say 'oh well' or 'nothing I can do' lol. Which are you?

I'll fight tooth and nail till I get the result I'm looking for , if I don't get it I'll then fight for an alternative as good as the first and usually with alot of resource I get my way.

Oh Radiancia, reading your question was like hearing you talk about me years ago... I would stubbornly fight against the "oh wells" and "nothing i can dos". I'm a little older today and i discovered that all this fighting was more exhausting for me than anyhing else. As someone else said below, choose your battles. Don't waste your time fighting for unnecessary things. The Serenity Prayer can also help you focus on the most important and let go of the rest:
God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change;
courage to change the things I can; and wisdom to know the difference.
Amen.

I sit and watch and learn my postion. Some things are only acceptable and everyone needs to learn to accept them (i.e. divorce, nature, gas prices sometimes). Even if I feel strongly against something, it may not be wise to fight. I defend my beliefs, but not always can I produce action. I'm a fighter at heart and soul though. If I dislike something, I do my best to stand up and confront it. I know I sound like a Weeny McWeirner, but when you watch and listen and make silent moves instead of fighting everything you disagree about or never standing up you really learn something. I guess I'm in the middle.

Sometimes picking one's battles is wise. You can win a battle and still lose the war. Think about the energy it takes to win every battle. Is every argument worth it? It sounds to me like you are just touchy and hard to get along with.

Depends on what it is, you have to pick your battles, not exhaust yourself over the small ones because when the big ones come, you want to have the energy to fight those.

Fight, fight, and fight! Some people are driven, some are ridden! I like to be in the driver's seat and I don't slow down for speed bumps...lol

Laid back, within reason of course. I used to argue but in todays society it's pretty much pointless.

You can never win in argument of any topics. so I keep cool .But when it comes to people who thinks that they can browbeat me personally that is a different story.

It depends on what is happening---If I'm getting screwed about something and I'm right--then I fight like hell.
