Hey peeps... curious to know which you are

Optimist
Pessimist
Realist

I find myself to be an Optimist, always believe there is a silver lining in every situation! My last 12 yrs are proof of that!

    Honestly I am all of the above depending on my mood.

    I can be the most positive person you've ever met, ever optimistic.
    Or I can be as my fiance calls me "eyeore"

    On average, a realist with a dash of both optimism and pessimism, given the situation.

    I find myself usually being pessimistic but as I am trying to change my eating habits I am trying to change my outlook on all things and look on the finer side of the things.

    I'm an optimist who pretends to be a pessimist. Haha. I just enjoy acting bitter and hateful but I'm secretly full of rainbows.

    When it comes to weight loss though, I try to be a realist.

    I am optimistically pessimistic. But just some of the time. Then I am pessimistic optimist. That just means I really believe that I will screw up.

    I consider myself an optimistic realist. Others say I'm a die hard optimist. Either way, I tend to be optimistic about things but realistic in how much work they require.

    Oh, I'm also a cynic. Somehow I feel that's important.

    Depends on the circumstance. We all have our downfalls.
