Do you consider yourself to be a positive person or a negative person?

[DiamondKutt]

I consider myself to be a positive person, but I'm very realistic. I try to go into situations with a good attitude & though I tend to worry a lot, I try not to because things could always end up great. I also tend to give people the benefit of the doubt, though I'm not dumb or a pushover. Sometimes I look down on negative people because I tend to equate that with unhappiness. But I won't criticize anyone on this question.

So do you consider yourself to be more positive or negative most of the time? What do you think about people that are the opposite? Would you be friends with or date someone that is the opposite? All honesty here. :]

I'm a realistic person, in between.

I'm not so naive as positive people are.

And I'm not so short-sighted as negative people are.

Yes, many things and many people can suck reaaallly bad and if you trust everyone like positive people you suck at being precautions and put all your joy of life at great risk.

But if you're a negative person you already have no joy of life. You got nothing to risk because you actually got nothing. We live only once and always being withdrawn and sullen is a WASTE of life!

I just see the big picture!

Positive with everyone but myself

Why not yourself?

I hate being any trouble, so I never ask for help or ask anyone for anything, really. Doesn't help me being that way. I end up losing out on a lot of things. Always was that way, even as a kid - I never cared if I lost at a game or a sport. Never cared if I got the girl or not. Never cared if I got the promotion or the raise. Never cared if the ex spent us into ruin.

That doesn't mean that you don't deserve better.

Oh, I know the rational arguments why my thinking pattern is self destructive. There's an old trauma, some sort of shame I feel for asserting my right to be as much a human as anyone else.

Do you need counseling?

I've always been a negative person, but yeah I'd date a positive person why not.

[LoveBambi]

Usually positive until someone/something upsets me.

[Otaku]

Im a negative person. Positive people seem naive to me. I would date someone who is positive because opposites attract.

I have always thought I am a glas half fun kinda person
