[Wolves]

Title says it all, I am very very often pessimistic.
But I don't really speak it out loud, often I just think that "..." will not work.

 

[Aomine Daiki]

[Osmon]

[Emperor of Planet Earth]

[Jack Spicer]

Yeah, it's bad. I wouldn't want to hang around one.

 

[Cursed Prince]

Yes cause it could mean your life in some cases.

I think it can prevent some people from initiating actions in different situations in some cases. It can also be a trigger for more destructive inner feelings like aggravation, anger, apathy, whimsicality, which can disrupt one's harmony easily. That is my conclusion since I was also a pessimist some years ago, pessimism is a hindrance.

 

[Fluffyman]

There is a thin line between beeing a realist and a pessimist, maybe you're just a realist?

 

[EVlL]

tbh yes, but im not an optimistic person either. sometimes i get pessimsit quite often. but both you and i need to overcome it

 

[Wolves]

Hm maybe you're right.

I think it's 50/50

Cool. I don't know anyone pessimistic as me.

Yeah, it's bad. I wouldn't want to hang around one.

My friends don't know, because I'm pessimistic in my mind. When they say sth like: Let's jump from a cliff (into water) I still do it. But in my mind I think that that's a stupid idea.

Yes cause it could mean your life in some cases.

I think it's the other way around.

Hm you're right too, I think.
But how did you become a optimist?

This here.. But if you're constantly not acting because you think it won't matter, that's pessimism. Or maybe you feel like nothing matters ever? Then you might be a nihilist.. Unless you're religious.

No okay, I guess I'm a realist then?
I still do most of the things which I think are stupid.
But let's say like a new movie will come out I'm like: "Yeah, I hope it'll be cool"
My freinds are like: "OMG, we have to watch this this is sooo amazing omg!"

 

[Tobi98]

It's not bad but it's annoying and boring as ****

 

[Lan Fan]

With a lot of determination actually. After you realize that pessimism only makes one look weak and bad (in his own eyes sometimes too), you can start thinking otherwise. Inner order turns to outer confidence in my opinion.

People create their own realities by their beliefs, thoughts, and hence their actions.
Pessimism tends to create a negative mindset that prevents people from taking chances.

It's not really bad or good; it just reduces your options and chances of finding good things that you currently don't have.

 

[HENI]

You can be whatever you want

Hm okay, I'll take that to heart and try to change it.

Okay thanks, this as well. ^

I know, but I wanted some opinions on this.
Thanks for your opinion :')

I'm a pessimist but try and believe that I am a realist. Honestly being pessimistic just makes other people not want to talk to you as you sort of make other people feel as bad as you do.

Also being pessimistic limits you as you don't want to do things as you feel it won't work out and there is no point.

You're putting yourself in a cage basically.
