Well I know its possible because it happens in my own head quite a bit and usually it stays there. I sometimes argue with myself too (not out loud, of course ). In my experience though, if there tends to be more emotion involved then it gets harder to move on to other things and see other points of view and easier to want and try to impose your view on someone else.
