Are You An Optimist, A Pessimist Or A Realist?


You tend to be more of a pessimistic person. You don't believe in happy endings and that everything will be better tomorrow, you know better than that. You know that our life is not always in our control, and that we are all vulnerable. That knowledge enables you to live a rather disappointment-free life. You're not necessarily a non-happy person or depressed, not at all. You just expect the worst, and then you're more excited when something good happens, eventually. And good things DO happen from time to time, we promise.

Hmm, I think I'm an optimistic pessimist, no for real.
(always look for that silver lining no matter how awful whatever what's awful is, it's always there, might hide like the dickens, could be it's not all that much, may not be what you'd expect in a bazzilion years, but it's there I swear, it's just up to you to find it, and acknowledge it...I be a big believer in silver linings:thumbs_up:)

I'm such an optimist that even this girl is tired of my crap.

You are a true optimist at heart! You always see the bright side of life, always thinking positive thoughts and seeing butterflies and sunshine and unicorns everywhere! How awesome is that?? Deep down you know that no matter what happens to you, your attitude will always keep you happy and content. That's the best way to live life, isn't it?
It's true, sometimes you get burned by trusting too many people and believing that everything will turn up fine, but it sure is better than thinking about every little thing that can go wrong with your life. Keep up with the sunshine and the unicorns and that smile on your face, will you?

I'm supposedly a Realist. I might've answered a question or two incorrectly, since I figured I'm a Pessimist.
