Therapy is the place where you CAN try out being wrong. And being right, half right, half wrong, etc.
Could the two of you try talking about things he says, and you use your imagination to try to think of another way seeing it? Sort of practice finding him wrong?
I hope you've talked to him/her about feeling you are afraid of being wrong. That sounds like the best place to start.
I think it's great that you can see this about yourself. It's sometimes things like this, things that really influence a lot that remain most difficult to see.

Another things about being agreable is the pikcing of one's battles. You might just not bother with things that dont' matter.
Also, unlike ME, you might not feel a need to be right, or even feel a need to have an opinion. We live among a tyranny of opnions, and many of them have no meaning or use at all.
