Is my boyfriend being arrogant?

Question by philly: Is my boyfriend being arrogant?
My boyfriend and I seem to get along ok except for one problem….I’m a non traditional adult college student who is very open minded and committed to learning. He is very intelligent and we can have very intellectual debates. The problem is that he wants to debate everything! He wants to take the opposing view and challenge the textbooks, challenge the professor….etc. It makes me feel like I’m being personally attacked when he dismisses my opinion or wants to prove me wrong. Why does he do this? Is it arrogance? Insecurity? He has a history of drug/alcohol abuse but is clean now and has been in recovery. He says its my problem because I’m disagreeing with him. He doesn’t acknowledge my feelings and just tells me that I’m wrong. I’m a peacemaker and I’m not concerned with “winning” a debate. I just want to be respected for my opinion. What’s going on here?
