Whomever starts the conversation, the other has to defend the opposing view. Sort of like a two-person debating society. Its quite enlightening.

If people always side against you
it just means they opposing views.  What is really telling is what happens after they disagree.  How happy are they with resolution?  And are they willing to honestly consider your view and agree after careful consideration.

If someone is naturally argumentative they take sides against everyone
