Often, people make pleasant, positive statements.

Occasionally, you should never indicate agreement with those statements.

For example, you have told your significant other that you love them, and they reply, “I love you more!”

Do. Not. Agree. with that.

ETA: Oops, hit “Post” too soon.

What other positive statements should you never agree with?
