negative people...

there are people who would always look on your bad side, the sad thing is they are the people close and so dear to you. they would always speak about negative things on and about you, they seem not to see or appreciate the good things you do... this sometimes causes you to give in to their negative expectations. you do the negative things they say not because you are naturally that but because they seem to dictate you to become like that...

It is almost impossible to get rid of people like them. If they say bad things about me, I try to keep mum about it not unless they would be talking bad against my family, then I let them hear my piece.

Unfortunately this is how my poisonous father is doing to me and to others as well that he is always negative. It is hard to deal with this kind of parent because how could you concentrate on the things that you need to do when somebody is putting you down? This is a big agony on my part. Good thing I already have my boyfriend who is a positive thinker who always motivates me that I can do the things that I want. I am becoming stronger now just because of him. Too bad my weaknesses is my parents that I can't even hear something positive.

Well there are lots of people around us who are like and used to be like that. Sometimes the people we think and don't expect that will do that to us are sometimes actually do such kind of act to us.It is better not to mind them and just focus on ourselves.It is their lost not ours so better go on with life and try to be positive in life most of the time.

Sometimes there are people who always bring other's mistake as the he/she can not be good one day. They should realize that everyone can make mistakes and everyone can change for the better. One small mistake is not a standard that he/she who have done mistake will always do mistake. Indeed, sometimes there are some narrow-minded people.

Just be yourself. Sometimes those people are just envy about you. They're just trying to pull you down. But don't get affected by it. :)

Yes the worse people are normally the one close to you , they are the ones who know you . People never forget a mistake but they never remember all the good you do .

Hi jheyan! It so true, there's a lot of people specially those close to us acting like that. I remember my mother(RIP), she use to be one of them. But don't succumb to the temptation to do those negative things. Instead follow your heart and conscience and do the right thing. They maybe right in some aspect but we just fail to realize it right now. Stay cool and Just be who you are and who you want to be.
