bull-headed? me?

Someone told me that I was stubborn today and this is the first time I ever hear such a comment about me. Nobody ever told me that before and now I'm starting to wonder whether I'm really bull-headed. That's the last word I would ever use to describe myself. Perhaps I was wrong? Or am I living in denial of a fact? Is it time for a self-reflection?

But how do you distinguish between stubborn and perserverance? stubborn and persistant? stubborn and determined?

I guess for every characteristic, there are always 2 extreme ends. It just depends on whether you use the word with a good or bad connotation. It's like thinking. Thinking is not a bad thing in itself, but if something preoccupies your thoughts too excessively, it becomes obsession.
