Do you find yourself arguing just for the sake of argument, or just itching to get in a fight with someone? Do you know an incredibly competitive athlete or an attorney who always wins?
Aggressive and argumentative are normally thought of as negative traits. If you host a radio or television show you may enjoy someone who is argumentative. If you were a boxer, football player or hockey player you may enjoy having the aggressive trait.
Ask yourself, "Do I really want this in my life?" Do I want someone I'm dating to have the aggressive trait? Do I want them to be argumentative? On the other hand, if I am putting together a world class debate team, these might be traits I want someone to have.
Aggression is physical in nature, while argumentative is aggression shown verbally.
