The other week
I was lamenting having put my iPod nano through the wash, and Em was saying how her ex had one too. She then claimed that her ex's had a black and white screen, which I questioned, saying that all nano's had colour screens.

She goes off on one, saying "You're wrong! Are you calling me a liar? It was a black and white screen!". Stupidly, I didn't let this drop, as I knew I was right, plus I was incensed by her saying I'm wrong. Then she gets all condescending too, which pushes me over the edge. I storm off the to computer to pull up Wikipedia, and sure enough I'm right.

Does she apologise? Of course she doesn't, and goes on about how it's hurtful that I didn't trust her word...

Oh my!
She reminds me of my mother. Everytime you tell her something to correct her, even in the best and sweetest way, it's just to hurt her and she hates you for that, and one day she'll leave and I'll miss her.

Do you actually like your girlfriend?
Because from what you post on here, it's not really coming through if you do.

She was looking for an argument.
Why rise to it? It doesn't matter whether you are right. It matters whether it's important enough to be worth arguing about whether you are right or not. And this is very clearly in the "NOT" territory.

The thing about arguing over something like that is, whoever wins, you've both lost.

Although by the sound of things you still need to DTMFA.

It does sometimes seem as though sometimes a woman will adopt a position she knows is wrong
just to see if you love her enough to let it go.


And of course, being men, we never can.

This.
Except they don't do it entirely consciously.
