If you want to be liked by people even when arguing and without sacrificing your personality, you may want to try the following principles.
1. Avoid using negative connotation, even when you mean it. Always start by appreciating what they said explaining them back that you understood what they said. Whether you agreed or not is not important. Make sure you repeat what they say in a way that clearly proves you heard them.
2. Talk less. The less you do, the higher the chance of being heard. Do not reply immediately.
3. Adapt to the other persons situation and background. Using the same angle of attack to everyone won't work. And accept the fact that the amount of information you can deliver to anyone in a specific time is limited by the receiver's capacity and condition.
4. Avoid being loud. Do not insult.
5. Stay on the point. Avoid logical fallacies (google/wiki it).
