I'm just like you! (LOL) I'm definitely optimistic...or at least try my best to be the majority of the time. I look on the bright side and seek the best in people. I understand that first impressions of people are usually horrible, so I try not to judge people by appearances. I also try to be sensitive of other people's feelings. I love helping other people and making them smile! I want my life to be about making a difference. Like you said, it's easy for me to overlook the bad things, which can also be a dangerous thing sometimes, especially in relationships.

I'm a lot like you. Sure there are times when I grumble but things have to be really bad at that point...and usually there are other factors on top of that problem like being tired and/or stressed about another big problem. BUt usually I'm the one trying to "cheer up" my pessimistic s/o, even though he thinks I'm a little crazy for being so positive lol!

I do my best to be an optimist, but it does not always come easy for me. There are some things that are set to drag you down and keep you down and you have to fight real hard to stay above water. I helps a lot when you have positive people around you.

Same here. I would often tell myself that good things will come my way, everything not so good is just high lighting things but there are more wonderful things coming my way. :)

I think sometimes I am a pessimist that I think everything is not good for me and everything is unfair to me .But ,sometimes I am also a optimist that I know I am the unique and I can do what others do .
