Why do some people think they are ALWAYS right..and get offended if you think they are not? Don't we all have the right to our own opinions in life?

You have your right to your opinion, as long as you don't try to shove it down my throat

You are correct we all are entitled as long as we do not feel the need to rip apart someone else's opinion just to make our own look better. If our opinions can not stand on it's own merit we should be questioning ourselves to make sure we honestly believe what we feel is right.

Some people are too insecure to deal with the possibility that they might be wrong.

Not in my family. I grew up in an environment where we were not allowed to have our own apinion. SICK! This is not healthy and follows you all your life. Stay away from people like that even if they are family.

Of course you have the right to your own opinion,right or wrong.Sometimes it's good to not bother argueing about it, go about doing or thinking what you want and let them think they're right :)

Yes, we definitely have the right to our own opinions in life. We also have the right to express them as we please, accepting the consequences. Other people believe it is also their right to think that everyone else's ideas/opinions are wrong! Some people are just very headstrong and stubborn (maybe the way they were raised?) and subscribe to their own school of thought.... that they are always correct! My philosophy I will take from a fortune cookie.... "The man who thinks he knows everything, really knows nothing at all." I stay away from those know-it-all people because why try to communicate with someone like that?? Domineering, opinionated and downright insecure. You just can't communicate effectively.

they just don't understand, not a good thing... it will come back to bite them in the arse one day though

I have someone who is from my extended family, but because I am living in another country where he is the only relative I have, sort of have to see him often. He has this tendancy to think that he is always right and that he knows everything. He also tends to believe that things can only be done the way he thinks is right and that to do things in any other way is a misstake. Some times I find his opinions really stupid. Some times I almost start laughing in front of him when I hear what he says. I have never confronted him seriously and am not considering to do so, because he is not the right person to argue with, in my opinion.
-
Probably because they have tied a great deal of their self image up in being seen as right. We are all entitled to our opinions, even the Always right guy. So what if they get offended when you won't change to their way of thinking. If you are strong in your own convictions that doesn't matter to you.

UGH my step brother is like this. Sooo annoying we do all have the right to our own opinions. But people like this will also say something is fact when it is not also. UGH!!!
-
Of course you all don't have the right to your own opinions. MY opinion is all you, or the rest of the world, needs! muahaha...
-
I think some people are like that because most of their lives they were told they were stupid or just plain wrong... they feel they have something to prove and it doesn't matter if you never critized them, because they need to prove their worth to the world.
