A colleague of mine recently said to me,
"If I am talking with you, I can expect that you will never agree with me right away. You will always bring up the opposite side and eventually offer me a solution to my problem."
Is this a good thing? Is it good to never automatically agree, but to chew on all the possibilities and try to figure out a solution? At first I thought this was a character flaw, but I now am thinking that it's wise.
Thoughts?

i'd imagine she meant it as a complement. after all it's always good to have a new perspective, right? plus, lord knows, your not going to get along with everybody in the world. take it as "your point of view, however different from mine, is useful to me"
