Negative-*****y-Unhappy-Complaining People

Learn to leave it with them and get on with your promoting your positive self. Like begets like.... the more positive you are the more positive people you will attract. And those you can't get rid of, sometimes just saying something like "oh, that must be awful" will quiet them - just looking for recognition most of the time. At least that's my 2 cents! :-)

Good luck!!

I hate to say it but my own finacee' is the worst! He is so negative sometimes it just drags me down. I try to fix things so he is happy but my gosh I cant do it all the time.

Oh dear.

I don't have this problem, I deleted everyone off facebook that was negative and I discontinued talking to anyone in real life. Problem solved.

I hate people who complain about complaining. /irony

Well hate is a very strong word, I was just want advice about how others handle this but guess thats obviously complaining so I'm ending this post.
Thanks to those that responded positivly.

Ignore them, it's not that difficult.

This clip brings me up every time, I am not a particularly religious gal but the message is strong and I think it will mean a lot to you now. I'm sure it will put a smile on your face too.

Have a wonderful day!!

I posted a quote this morning that fits for this thread....

"You must constantly ask yourself these questions: Who am I around? What are they doing to me? What have they got me reading? What have they got me saying? Where do they have me going? What do they have me thinking? And most important, what do they have me becoming? Then ask yourself the big question: Is that okay? Your life does not get better by chance, it gets better by change." - Jim Rohn

My fiance tends to be a glass is half empty kinda guy and it frustrates me sometimes too. I just take a deep breath and try to help him see it from other possible viewpoints. He is slowly getting less negative but it sure is a process. If you are committed to him take a deep breath and help him see the positives instead of focusing on the negatives.

I'm tired of people complaining about people complaining...THAT is the worst.

I'm tired of people complaining about people complaining who are complaining about the complainers....two more degrees and I'll reach Kevin Bacon \m/

The people who complain about the complainers complaining about complainers complaining are the worst.

No, the people who complain about the complaining complainers complaining about the aforementioned complaining complainers are the worst....and now look who showed up

I know, complainers really get on my nerves (snort)

Ok here is the deal, I have about had it with people in my life that complain, *****, carry on like no one else has problems but them. They expect the people around them to listen and be their sounding boards. It is dragging my down and I am sick of it! Does anyone else have this issue? and if so what do you do about it? Its not just as easy as stop talking to them or cut them out of my life either.
Sorry for the venting.

In the end, this is a fitness site :huh:

Same way I handle my husband when he starts complaining... I just try to show him the silver lining. It doesn't always help him, but it helps me better deal with it. Hope you find a solution!
