I find myself so fed up with people at times. I know that seems rather sad, but I have seen so much negativity and hate from other people. These days, I have shyed away from people because I have been so tired of dealing with other people being so selfish and hateful. Do you guys experience this? How do you cope?

I find myself feeling like that often, i feel that people take advantage of me and do not value me. at the same time I have a group of honourable poepl who do appreciate my humble skills and meagre talents, and validate me everyday.

ON A personal level I try to help the few good friends I have work through their negativity. If they can't deal, and still wax on with it, I try to ignore it. I try distance, too. It's not healthy. But what can you do? I work at Wal-Mart. I see selfishness and hate in almost everyone. If not, I see ignorance or avoidance, which is a type of negativity. I don't know any other way than to just weed people out... be very selective but don't get lonely. The web is a great place to meet the truly miraculous people out there... but don't give up on a personal level either.
