Discussion Do you have any really negative people in your life?

[Hoppipolla]

Some people... man! So constantly negative. Or at least very often negative. And the old saying about "misery likes company" really applies oftentimes too. It's like it's not enough for them to be miserable, they want you to join them in it!

Wild. I need to start being more assertive when it comes to maintaining distance from people like that.

Hm. I just got all angry and blocked someone on my friends list (on Facebook). I'm pretty sure it was the same person I was complaining about here!

I just... can't take it. On and on and on... negative and stressful and... always wanting me to be involved with this somehow. But there's never a solution it's just worry and problems with no solutions.

OK sorry, I need to try to calm down now, lol

I guess there are different kinds of negativity though.

Also most of the negativity here is pretty "opt-in"!

I can just not click the thread.

Yes, my old 2 friends from childhood, they are depressed asf,

A lot of the time, I don't even feel like seeing them.

I do plan on talking with this person again one day but... I just can't bring myself to do it again right now.

Imagine every day of your life being given like "doses" of stress regularly! Messages going on about whatever the latest worrying thing is on the news. You never relax because there's never a long wait before the next "dose".
