I always figured it was ego and people don't like to be wrong. They are still wrong even if they aren't corrected. And they say aspies always have to be right? I see it in other people too. By how they act when they get corrected, I act better than that.
I also feel stupid when I am wrong so perhaps that's how others feel when they are wrong. But I still feel the urge to correct people because I hate hearing the wrong things and I don't want them to keep being wrong about it. That's how I feel about myself so I like to be corrected. Why can't others feel the same way?
It probably happens because both people think they are right. Someone has to be wrong or they won't be disagreeing with each other. So when neither backs down an argument ensues.
It's different with opinions. I won't argue with that. If someone's opinion upsets me too much, I quit discussing it with them. There are topics out there I will not touch with certain people.
But when it comes to facts, it drives me crazy. It's like arguing about the sky being green or whales being fish.
