I am generally a really positive person. Very rarely am I negative and/or down. I know a lot of people who tend to be negative though and like to vent/complain a lot.
How about you? Everyone has good and bad days, but do you tend to be more positive or negative?

I skew a little more negative but DH is MUCH more negative so when we're together I usually then skew towards being the positive one. But when left to my own devices I worry about stuff and see negatives, so I voted that way!

Tbh I have a tendency to complain... trying to be more mindful of it though b/c despite complaining I'm generally very happy & enjoy life. (that's sounds like a complete oxymoron. lol)

I'm very positive. Always trying to see the good in something and whatnot. I can definitely have my grump moments but I really do not like negativity and my husband makes up for it for sure! LOL.

I don't know if I can vote. To outsiders (like co-workers, a lot of my friends, etc) I'm extremely positive. People have commented on it. But I think my SO and family would say I'm negative and complain a lot. I guess I save it all up for them!

I'm very positive...DH can be pretty negative, though. We balance eachother out pretty good.

I'm not sure how I would categorize myself. I'm positive but have a tendency to be anxious about things... not necessarily negative, just worried. I keep most of that to myself though and am outwardly positive most of the time.

I'm very positive and optimistic, but I can be very critical (I try to be aware of that and not do it) and than can sometimes turn into being negative- although the only people that would see that or know that are very close to me.

I've had depression about 6 years ago and was on medication for 6 months. I wanted to get off the medication so I willed myself to be more positive. So the past 6 years, I would say that I'm positive and try not to take things so seriously. My mantra was 'whatever happens, happens for a reason'. Although, having infertility has made me a little more bitter at mad the the world, god and whoever I'm annoyed with that day. I hate that IF has changed me. I wish I wasn't so jaded now. Infertility sucks!

I'm normally a huge worry wart so I always imagine/think of the worst case scenario so I voted "negative". Since becoming pregnant though, I've been totally laid back and have been eh about a lot of things that would normally bother me. So weird!

I don't think I complain a lot but I do tend to have a negative outlook. I've been like that my entire life.

I wouldn't say either, really. Cautious maybe? I'm very realistic, and that's not to use it as a euphemism. And I may be verbal about it too, but I don't see that as a complaint, just a statement of fact. DH thinks I'm being negative sometimes, but I don't see it that way. It just is what it is.
