how is better to be: pessimist or optimist?

I agree that it is best to be an optimist but I tend to be more of a pessimist because I always think if you build your hopes up and expect things to go right and they don't you are badly disappointed, if you are a pessimist and you expect things to go wrong and they go wrong you expected it but if they go right, you are more surprised and you appreciate them more.

SOMETIME IT IS BETTER TO BE PESSIMISTIC. AND WHEN SOMETHING GOOD APPEARS, YOU ARE MORE HAPPIER

optimist is better.

I think is better to be optimist ,like in my case, the optimist always see the full half of the glass but the pessimist seez the empty half of the glass.

I think too optimist also bad. Blace need to make our life better I mean if U feel optimist is nice.. but keep careful ^^

i'm neither an optimist or a pessimist. i am a realist. i understand that life is hard, you don't always get what you want or what you need. i also know that life has great gifts like love and friendship that at one point or another we are blessed with them. life is a constant ride full of ups and downs and i never expect the good or the bad, i just take what i get and make the best of it.

sure optimist

optimistic. i think being optimistic isbetter then being pessimistic.
