I’m probably a negative person to be avoided.
Maybe labelling someone as a negative person is a judgment? “Let go of judgment”. Thank you for sharing. I’m sure this will help some people here. |

(Unrelated to you) I see nothing wrong with limiting time with negative people. It's important for self-preservation and peace of mind. Energy transmits regardless of whether it is positive or negative. I don't perceive that as judging. Simply stepping back from someone is not judging them or derailing their sense of peace. Feel free to tell me more if you feel comfortable. Peace. Last edited by Anonymous44076; Mar 18, 2019 at 09:25 PM.. |

I find it difficult to avoid myself, too!

"Positive" people don't want to hang out with me... and finding my tribe would probably be around the "doomed" ones too... that are the ones that can relate with my thoughts and sometimes, even make me feel better, idk

I didn't see anything on the list about "doomed" people. I wouldn't describe anyone as "doomed."

I often find “positive people” don’t want to spend time with me. I also step back from people sometimes. Peace. |

I like the quote about our planet.. “positive” people often don’t want to hang out with me either. I also had a “friend” who said I was “a negative person” and then this “friend” (irl) became abusive. I wouldn’t call anyone the “doomed” ones

It's all perception. There's plenty of wonderful people out there. And if someone says you're negative, they are probably projecting. Which means they are the negative one. Not you. Self preservation is important.

Couldn't have said it better myself! Well done. That's the mantra of my life, "Be positive. You'll achieve unimaginable things." Unfortunately it's not that easy to be positive for some people, that's why it's said positive thinking can achieve great things. Well done.

Yea, it seems like those who tell you that you are negative or into psychoanalyzing you are the ones that don't have their lives all together. If you notice, those who are very positive are the ones that would tell you what's great about you than what's wrong with you.

Another one... let those who don’t appreciate us (and who are actually “negative” and “toxic”) go and .... let them go, it’s their loss

I don't mind negative people though. I avoid those who willingly trigger me for self preservation. Rejection is a trigger for many and people are negative through their experiences not because they are at fault. Spending time getting to know their story creates understanding and their friendship is true unlike so called "normal people." |
