"The only way to get the best of an argument is to avoid it." - Dale Carnegie
Some say to avoid religion or politics in conversation - topics far less objective than, say, the maximum number of clowns that can fit into a car.
There are cases where the two of you must resolve an issue together. Some by definition will entail a winner and loser, a "have" and "have-not" (witness divorcees debating the ownership of a house).
Valuing a person's opinion makes life much better than battering it with your own.
Some may enjoy putting you down. That's fine. Enjoy building yourself up. Including the strength of knowing when to clamp up.
