I always TRY to look on the bright side, but sometimes, I just can't. sometimes, when one thing goes wrong, I think the whole world is going to end! But those yimes are very rare, so I voted optimist
 
You need to look at things like...everything happens for a reason. And in the end it all works out. So if you have a positive outlook you will skip all the stress of worrying. That's why, optimism. Now smile and say cheese 🙂

And EVEN Crazy In-Laws, if you're nice and patient enough, drive you crazy, but swoop into town, stop to get you a new easel and buy you a new "BAT VAN" with all the bells and whistles!
My wife doesn't. Neither of us has spoken to my parents in years.

Might be time to break out that quija board though and say hi...

we totally have to talk. my wife and i havent spoken to my folks in a long time either.
I'm an optimist. See example down below:

My life sucked today...well, tomorrow HAS to be better! 😀

End example.

See? Corny but effective.
 
I noticed in 5th grade that everything that seemed so dire right then, seemed stupid a month later. It's funny how fast life moves. The more you remind yourself that today really means squat in the big picture, the easier it is to move on!
 
i picked pessimist but honestly, i see myself as neither.

i see myself as a realist. i looke at everything as realistically as possible, whether it is accepting the bad or good.
 
95% optimist. Except today. I ran over a tire in my new car, so I'm sad. No real damage, though apparently there's this thingie underneath your car that keeps mud out of the engine or something and I need a new one now, cause that's gone. Crap.

I'm usually the person trying to cheer everyone up if they are down by being like
"well, it could be worse"
-"how"
"were you held hostage by a band of wild gorrillas that escaped from the zoo today? If not, then see, it could have been worse!"

I like to look at the bright side. Except today. Stupid tire.
 
Since I tend to always get pissed off by listening to optimists, I guess I qualify as a pessimist... though I just call it realism. (Well, I guess, every true pessimist would. :wink🙂

Lol, I know for sure that's what I do
I guess I really do fall in the middle, cause with the my-life stuff, I'm pretty optimistic, but with big world/politics stuff, I'm always sure we're about to go down in flames.
 
Optimist here. I see most situations as being or having something beneficial - which sometimes is simply just having that experience or the lesson learned from it (whatever 'it' may be).
 
I'm an optimist wherever I can be. And I am generally a smiley, think-positive kind of person. My Mother was always like that though so I think I get it from her. The whole 'In those darkest times you'd better find that goddamn silver lining!'. So yes, I would say I'm an optimist. ::smiles in an optimisty type way::
