They have failed to bash their ego. I love when you're not offensive and get someone's back up. Know what ever offended you will be used to assassinate your character over and over until i finish with "You have such a big ego better get it in check". I lose so many relationships like this but to be at the whim of a friend/confident/lover/colleague and they attempt to tear you apart because you damaged their ego i will never care about losing those people. The last time this happened. Your cat tore the thread out of my timberlands. The look! my cat wouldn't ever do that he's to good. Its a cat they scratch and claw at everything! Everything.
I wanna fucking bash my own skull in when this happens. Then they have the audacity to say “you always think you’re right!” No goddamnit I don’t think I’m right, I know I’m right cause I just googled it right in front of you
It means you don't understand how this particular social interaction works. How you say your case matters very much, and in what situation you say it (public vs private, appropriate vs not). People don't like to be criticized or condemned especially in situations that would embarrass them, and they will do everything just to not agree with you.
In every action of a person there is a reason behind it. People aren't plain dumb just like that. If someone doesn't admit being wrong there's something holding him back, and there's a good chance that the nature of the conversation had contributed much to it.
The key words from them are "only", "but", "just", and "fair". When you hear those, you know they know they have no way to refute you and are simply trying to bluster their way past you.
I love to tell that story. I was living with 2 other roommates. One was a clever dude, and the other was not so clever girl. We were pretty much friends and usually shared meal. One day we had a discussion about the different time in the world (that cause jet lag). She was adamant about something that was wrong. After a lengthy and difficult explanation she stood up and say (keep in mind it was in french so rough translation: I AM WRONG AND I STICK TO IT !
I believe it’s when someone knows very little about a subject thinks that they are average in that subject because they don’t know how much there is to learn about it.

When you prove somone wrong and you know they know they're wrong but won't fucking admit it, no matter how much proof or logic you put into it
