Do You Know Someone that Is so Negative You Cant Stand being around them?

Almost everyone is negative to some degree. We all have issues. If you think you have no negativity issues then you speak with forked tongue. Most of the people I work with are negative mongers. In that group are those who a severely negative and those I try to avoid. Are you thinking that you, ONA, are not negative? To say that others are negative causes me to think that you think you're ok. OMG!

Oh yes! I think we all probably know a few people like you describe. I try my best to avoid the few that I know. I will go to extremes to arrange not to be near or around them.

Thats a definate yes! my mother-in-law! check the discussions i have started on my profile. i guess she has a ripple effect because she makes me complain more than i should. and to be exact, i complain about her... i try to steer clear of her,but its a lost case. they live too close to us. she is so negative that when you have spent an hour with her,you feel like the end of the world is near. she casts a black shadow when she speaks. hardly anything good gets said.

Oh God yes. It's my worst pet peeve. I love being around people who love to laugh and smile. I use to have a roomate who was never happy. Over time, I realized that he wasn't happy unless he was unhappy. So I moved out and quick. Never been happier! lol Interesting post, thanks!
