Are you optimistic or pessimistic?

[Anonymous]

And do you think you can be with someone that's the opposite of what you are?

[Sonorous]

I can be seen as either depending on perspective & scenario. But I would much rather be called a realist though. I'm only "optimistic" or "pessimistic" if there's good reason to be. Most times I'm not completely sold on either. I'm usually in the middle just waiting for many tipping points to either side depending on perspective. I say many because preference is subjectively defined.

I'm a realist with optimistic leanings, but am also very grounded in reality. I try to listen to the opinions of all sides, and as a result I sometimes modify my position because I learn something I didn't know before. But I don't believe you can have a position if you don't listen to all sides, even though you won't always agree.

But either way, it's all water under the fridge.

My brother got me started on the 12 year series.

I'm pessimistic and was with someone optimistic. So I definitely could be with someone optimistic again. I definitely needed someone to make me see the positives in the world.

[Asker]

That's pretty interesting, it's good to have someone that pushes their optimistic perspectives onto your negative ass 😆

[Simslover92]

Lol 😂

[Asker]

Negative Nancy lol

[Simslover92]

I really am lol

[Asker]

I've noticed 😂

[Laciejordan]

Mostly an optimist. I probably couldn't be with someone that's a pessimist. I have a cousin like that and it's tiring!

[Asker]

Lmao I can imagine

[valentina4eva]

optimist!!💯✨ and i would not be able to be with a pessimist😵😵 too draininggggg😵‍💫

[Asker]

That fair enough barbie face, we wouldn't want them draining all that barbiness from you 🤣

[Unit1]

Cynical realist.

People think it's called pessimism.

[Asker]

Being realistic is different, pessimist is basically that you don't think of a good outcome for anything lol

[Unit1]

I can assume so due to my cynicism. Yet I let myself be surprised if it's not the case.
There is a faint line between these 2. They may even say the same thing.
I know a pessimist when I see one and I know a realist or a cynical person when I see one. The latter 2 assume objective facts rather than "everything's going to shit regardless and if not, it will go to shit anyway"

[PrettyCrumblBb]

Optimistic 😁 🏵️🌿🌸🌿🌹💐🌺🥳

I can't be with a pessimist

[Asker]

[mandyfire98]

Optimistic for sure. It would ge tough to be with someone who was very pessimistic honestly.

[midnightmoon05]

[Asker]

[Account]

I am gloomy as fuck, but in an amusing way.

[Asker]

You are like a suicidal person without the suicidal part

[Account]

Exactly. I am like a dead person but if a dead person was alive. Or a robot if a robot had flesh and bones.

[Asker]

A robot I believe, that could explain why you are so good at programming 😅

[Account]

Ι am not good, honestly, I just aspire to better 😅

[Asker]

Still robot activity lol

[Maybe_Maybe_not]

Oui.

[Asker]

Realistic but that usually lands more in pessimism

[jamesgoldman]

No eternal optimism is depressing unless you're a child or just have nothing

[Asker]
