Is it normal and okay for a woman to be sometimes moody?

[Anonymous]

I’ve been told that I can be sometimes moody at work is that a bad thing?

[sage2021]

Ya know, I once worked with a woman that would come in to work everyday and depending on HER mood, that's how the rest of other's around her, including me, would either have a good day or a shitty day if she was in her bad mood. I would go into work acting like my cheerful self, smiling face, etc. Then she'd walk in the front door, and if she just walked by me really fast and not say hi or good morning to me and her face looked like an old prune, I knew I was in for a bad day. She was like that a lot!!
And because of her moodiness and her actions and her moody sounding voice, she would make my stomach tighten up and caused me so much stress, that after three year's of working around her fricken bad moods, I ended up debilitated and so sick I had to quit working - period! I was never able to work again because of her stress affecting my stomach, my stomach stopped functioning. It's called gastroparesis. Means paralyzed gastric system.

So, if you're going to be around other people, do us all a favor and don't be moody to us, or just stay home. Moody people like you can make those around you very sick. I'm telling you this so you don't make other innocent people have to internalize your vibes you are sending off around you.

haha thats hirarious. here's an idea-dont allow others to affect you - you'll be happier and in this case healthier

We don't have control over our feelings, but we do have control over our actions. I'm sure you wouldn't want others to take out their frustration and moods on you, so think of that when you choose to not monitor your behavior. Yes, we all can be irritable or down or even exuberant, but all those can be annoying to others, just like you'd find it annoying to you. Never legitimize insensitive, inconsiderate behavior by blaming your mood. Your mood will pass, but the results of your behavior can haunt you for the rest of your life.

You ask if it is normal. All normal means is common. It used to be normal to believe the earth was flat. Do you wish to hold onto that belief for the rest of your life? I've heard many women say it's normal for women to get fat as they age. By feeling it is normal, they feel no motivation to watch what they eat. If I still ate like I did when I was a teenager, I wouldn't be able to pass through doorways.

Is it okay for a woman to be sometimes moody? Sure it is, but that doesn't give anyone permission to take that moodiness out on others. Before you say or do anything, ask yourself whether you'd appreciate (not just tolerate) being on the receiving end of what you plan to dish out. If not, come up with an alternative. If your husband comes home from work in a bad mood, will you tell him it is perfectly fine for him to take it out on you? No one's an island. View yourself as part of the whole.

Yes, it's normal for anyone, including women, to have occasional mood
fluctuations. Emotions are part of being human, and various factors can
influence mood. re-state://background_color_rgba (0, 0, 0, 0), font_color_rgb (77, 77, 77), justifyLeft

yeah it's ok for all people to have there rainy days and women get there period hormone days and thats quit hard to be steady for women on periods it fucks with there body and its ok for them to have those days they stress them out everyone does now and then

It's intriguing how guys tend to be more polite and understanding when girls are moody, whereas Girls seem to accept moodiness but draw the line at rudeness or hurtful behavior. I find this observation quite interesting.
In my opinion, both guys and girls experience moody days, feeling down or annoyed from time to time. However, I've noticed that guys are generally more inclined to recognize that their mood doesn't excuse treating others poorly, while some girls may not always share the same perspective.

Why do we let other soo effect us? Why is our ship guided by their attitude rather than our goals?

We say we have no choice we must swim in the same sea, but we do have a choice. We can sail were we like and choose to ignore their waves.

Feel how you want to feel.
Try to remain kind to others when they deserve it, but by all means feel free to tell them you're not in a mood to talk and that they've done nothing wrong.
I've got this friend at work and one look on her face I can tell when she's pissed. I'll wave at her and keep walking. If she wants to talk, she will, and when she wants some space she just waves back. No big deal.
Your emotions are valid, your actions are all you can be accounted for.

Everyone has their good days and their bad days. It is okay. Just so long as you’re not taking it out on your coworkers or customers really not an issue.

[serious_miss419]

I understand.
I’m not liked much at work amongst my initial coworkers and I do my job to a T and never miss work. Bosses and above, they like me a fair bit.
Sometimes people don’t like you because you don't participate in their misery and majority of the time you aren’t even aware of it and they still be that way.


I wouldn’t worry about it. It’s their issue

[LazerBean]

If moody includes being grumpy or rude, then no it is not okay.

[davado88]

im rude routinely for fun and believe me it is ok

[LazerBean]

Yikes.

[davado88]

dont knock it til you try it

[DaBiggestBird]

If you’re talking about that feeling where you just don’t feel like talking to anyone and simple things like that then that sounds pretty normal to me. But if you’re being toxic in Rocket League then some serious changes need to be made.

[Apple1996]

Everyone is moody sometimes but try not being that way at work

[Asker]

It was man who where referring me

[Anonymous]

It depends. I have no problem with a moody person so long as they're not bothering anyone else. We a have off days. That don't give you the right to put it on someone else. If you're in a mood you only gotta tell me once I'll leave you alone for the day. Just keep your moodiness in your office or cubicle. And we'll all be good.

[lightbulb27]

lol. dang hormonal swings.

normal yes. good, that is a judgement.

I for one do not want to get into an airplane where the pilot is moody...

[virtualwasp]

of course, especially during our monthly scarifies to Satan. if im honest im a little grotty.

[jennifer_bloom]

Yes its okay to have mood swings, as long as you are moderate when you express negative emotions and not violent or dangerous or crazy.

[Jamie05rhs]

That depends whether or not you take it out on others.

[kellytheman]

Well I don’t wanna sound sexist but I feel most women are moody because of their emotional feelings can make them be moody I would say it bad thing as long you don’t start lash at people and can handle it.

[sheikalana]

If this happens constantly it can be a bad thing as you may come as unapproachable or unfriendly.

[thegreenyogi]

Of course it is. It's in our nature. We do bleed once a month and we all know that our mood shifts are practically out of our control.

[LiamJHayden]

Very normal. Women have that monthly thing were hormones can get seriously out of whack while they are bloating and bleeding. That you all do not rampage during that time amazes me.

[Staximus]

Don't bring your personal problems to work and subject people to your drama. Leave that shit at home where it belongs, or stay home if you can't act like a normal person at work.

[Anonymous]

Normal is the key word. Women are known for being moody. I think guys are too they just manage it better.

[ProbablyClueless]

That's pretty normal, yeah. That's normal for men too; people are like that in general.
