I would definitely consider myself an optimist. I realized my outlook on life has completely changed since leaving all the toxic people in my life and getting out of my emotionally abusive online relationships. I?m a positive person, although, often seen as unrealistic. I always believed you can accomplish anything with hard work. If you want something bad enough, you can always achieve it with determination.
When everything is going wrong, I always find the one thing that is going right. Some people hate how positive I am. People sometimes try to push their negativity on me, but I can never bring myself to be so negative. It is not the type of person I am. This is a daily struggle with my extreme optimism. I?ve been told ?We wouldn?t be in this position if it wasn?t for you being stupid.? I have also heard ?There is a difference between being positive and being completely stupid.? I just try not to let their opinions bother me.
They call me unrealistic and stupid. I see myself as positive, determined, and optimistic.
I'm a bit of an optirealist. I can see the good in any situation but I understand the consequences of bad situations aren't to be ignored. I consider happiness a choice, or even a skill, that can be developed.
I’m a realist. I stick to reality and whatever makes logical sense. My mom is always positive, or at least tries to always be positive, but I do not see any logical sense in that because there ARE negative things that will happen to you in life.
To sum it up, I’m kind of like Neji from Naruto in that sense. I stick to cold, crushing reality, and I’m a bit of a pessimist because I don’t like the way the world is right now either.
I'd consider myself a very negative optimist. I've got a lot of anxiety that makes me angry and scared all the time, but the fact that I can hope that the future will be better is what keeps me together, so I can't consider myself too much of a pessimist, despite how negative I can be.
I would definitely call myself an optimist, but one with a realist's point of view. I am in optimist in that I attempt to see the best in people who haven not done anything bad that I know of, but one they mess up, I remember their actions. I also am an optimist when I believe in mine and other's dreams, I tell myself that anything is possible.
But I also tell myself that am required to put a large amount of effort if I want to see good results. (Which I do, at least 99% of the time.) There are other examples, but those are the two main consistent ones. Also, very much like Feraligatr, I have noticed my feelings, actions, and general outlook in life have become much more positive as of late. I just graduated middle school, and simultaneously purged myself of the bad role models, rude people, and fake friends in my life.

im Very pessimistic, cynical, depressed and negative
im working on being less cynical (/pessimistic/negative/depressed/depressing) but it feels fake because i really think things are terrible lol. i don?t share my negative thoughts anywhere (other than on the internet which is where i post 3 page essays on how everything is terrible and how suicidal i am) because i don?t want to bring others down.
for me positivity and optimism feel fake or forced most of the time and i don?t like when someone?s like ?everything is beautiful, u should enjoy life!!!? if im all like ?everything is terrible and i want to die? bc it makes me feel bad for being negative and also it is terrible advice lol. it feels like theyre like ?shut up lol? which doesnt feel great to hear from someone u want support, understanding or help from.
i don?t like when people tell me that i must have hope because im still alive and still trying to get better even after all i?ve been through even though it?s probably true. it makes me feel pathetic and weak, which is stupid because hope and optimism aren?t weaknesses but ?\_(ツ)_/?
I would say I'm a realist but also try to be a optimist as best as I can. It can happen that I'm a
little pessimist sometimes, but only if I feel really down.
I think I'm an optimist about life as I always believe that things will get better and there is good in the world, but I'm a pessimist about myself (I feel like I suck at everything, I'm awkward and boring and why would anyone want to talk to me, all my opinions are invalid, etc)
