What Is Your Debate Style?

You listen quietly for as long as others need to express their points of view, but when they are finished, you always have a rebuttal. You use the time they take going on and on about something to formulate your own big finale!

You feel like, if you let someone finish what they have to say, your opportunity to share your thoughts will pass. You can't help but interject at every point in the conversation. You feel like some thoughts are too important to just wait.

You listen carefully to what others say, and you are always willing to look for middle ground. You hate arguing, but you aren't willing to completely concede your point altogether. You are quick to agree to a compromise for the sake of moving forward.

You are quick to judge others' ideas and dismiss them as not mattering. You aren't a stellar listener, and frankly, that doesn't concern you a bit. You feel like you have really thought through your ideas and beliefs, and you don't want to hear from others.

You take your time to express your counterpoint. You are willing to admit that there are many different 'right' ways of viewing the world, and you like to learn about all of them, even when you don't fully agree. When you are trying to make a point, you take the time to consider all points of view before making your argument.

You hate to debate! Arguing gives you anxiety, so if you have an opinion, you are most likely to keep to yourself just to keep the peace. You usually feel like you don't have all the facts, and you would rather go along with others' opinions than possibly make a fool of yourself trying to express your own.
