In my culture, it seems that people are supposed to stand for their argument until the end. If you change your mind during an argument, it means that you don’t have any self-respect and you don’t deserve respect. As a result, people are expected to try to defend their point for as long as possible. There are very few instances when someone manages to convince someone else to their point.

I feel like I change my mind so quickly. I can easy see the point of other people and change. When I was in high school, I had a group project and my classmates were discussing some activities to put in the project. One classmate suggested something that I thought was good, so I agreed. Then another classmate suggested something contradictory that I felt was also good, so I agreed. Then someone asked me what was wrong with me, I had just agreed to two contradictory things.

I thought it was just because I was a dumb teenager, and I would grow out of it. But no, this tendency has continued to my adulthood. Sometimes I feel so ashamed of myself for changing my mind so quickly. What is wrong with me?
