Whats the deal with with all the '' complainers'' and the negativity?

[FlockOfSeagulls]

Hey I know we all from time to time get irritated at certain things. But lately it just seems no matter where we go that someone is complainig about something. I work with someone who will complain about anything & everything and does so at a moments notice. This guy would bitch if he won a million dollars because he wanted two million. A lady at the grocery store yesterday was whining to a friend that she couldn`t afford a brand new car. Well it just show happens that she was parked by me and was driving a 05 Lincoln Navigator. Seems like people on these and other forums are complaining about things at a much quicker rate. Heck lots of us live in the greatest country on the planet...... shouldn`t that count for something ???!!!

I don't know about anyone else but I'm all Negitive Nelly because I turn 30 this Friday and I'm seriously depressed about it. I don't want to be old.

Your as young as you feel , you control the feeling of age . I think we are all kids at heart and keeping that will help us keep feeling young though our bodies turn old .

Geez....you think 30 is old???? What in the world are you gonna do when you hit 40? or 50 ? Even 50 is not old ; chances are that you will have at least 30 more years. It might help it you exercised

Bah humbug.

I'm sorry, but I'm just really depressed about this. I had plans - I was suppose to be married to a guy who was crazy about me at 25, get a singing career together, and at 30 my husband and I were suppose to adopt two unwanted teenage orphans.

Instead my singing career is going no where because instead of talent and real music, people want jailbait in halter tops and micro-minis who caterwaul cuss words massively offkey while bumping and grinding like an over-used stripper on cocaine. I haven't been on a date since I was 18. I'm still living with my parents. I'm a fat, ugly, worthless and now old sack of crap.

30 isn't old. At least, it better not be, because I'm 3 years away from it... lol

 

[slap'n'ticklee]

Life is what you make of it and feeling negative and down over things, others will see this in you and maybe not approach you. Try to start thinking positively you have many years ahead of you to be happy if you wish to be...

Its upto you and only you to change this outlook.

I'm 33 so I wish to God, I'm not passed it, I don't feel this age and still act like a silly arse now and again, again its up to you and what you do with your situation.

Good luck and happy birthday (early wishes) and don't let it get you down hon, its really not worth the effort or energy 🙂

Bah humbug.

Being female, age gets to me differently then you men. Men can be sex symbols up into their 90s. Women however - well, except for the comic book character Deadpool's obsession with Bea Arther, younger is prefered. I don't see any of you guys requesting tickling toons or stories of Dame Judi Dench or Kathy Bates.

I'm offically in old hag territory. I have crows feet around my eyes. I just need the grey hair.

Jami, I hope Friday is good for you.
I loved turning 30. Seriously loved it.
I'm also unmarried, have no children,
and I've had not the best luck in
choosing companies to work for in
the last decade or so (most of them
have either closed up shop, or moved),
which is why I decided to start my own.
And that didn't even go as well as I'd
hoped it would.

Being able to pick yourself up and
find things to do and be which make you
happy is key. I'm also a big believer in
'If you think you can, or you think you can't,
you're right" and I apply it to what I do/am.

You're smart, and I hope that you find
something appealling about yourself in time
for someone else to come along and help
you validate that, because it seems that
it's helpful if someone else would find you
attractive.

Wow! I'm the youngest of 5 (21), the next closest sibling to my age is turning 33 in a few weeks. All my other siblings are in their mid/late 30's and early 40's. Being 30 definately isn't bad. It's when most people's lives are usually at their best.

Everyone ages differently. Everyone has some complaint about their body and themselves at any and every age, so don't let being 30 get to you. It could be worse and I'm sure someday when you're 40, 50, 60 you will look back and say, "Damn, I looked GOOD when I was 30!". I'm not an optimistic person in the least. I'm pretty negative, but most of all, I'm realistic.

Don't be depressed about not having a singing career, there are people trying their hardest every day that don't. You're definately not the only one. Instead of planning your life so much, maybe try going with the flow and taking things as they come. Sometimes trying too hard is a bad thing. Setting goals is one thing, but being depressed over not acheiving them is another. Some things happen or don't happen for a reason. I'm sure you have a nice place to live, a nice car, and a decent job. Isn't that good enough? Some people just get caught up in the luxuries in life anymore and don't appreciate the true necessities in life.

Ya know, instead of feeling sorry for oneself, how about taking action and doing something to better your lives.

A friend of mine used to be really fat in high school, and now he is 200lbs of muscle. Yeah he gets attention by girls now, but that doesn't change the fact that he's all alone and doesn't have a woman in his life now. Depression happens to the best of us whether we're fat, skinny, or homely.

I've been told that I'm a good looking guy, and it's been suggested that I model men's formal wear. But I have had many heart breaks, betrayals, and huge let downs in my life. But instead of dwelling, I move on, because I'm a man of faith.

All it takes is a leap of faith, and you can accomplish anything!

 

[ticklkitten]

Thanks Lee... you know I adore you. And I loved this post.

Many know I've been handed a pretty tough deal in life. Some of it my own doing... much of it not. But no matter what I just try to take things and deal with them. It's life after all... there is a reason Heaven is supposed to come AFTER it.

Lots of lessons to be learned here. If I were negative I wouldn't have made it far.

Thanks Lee for putting things in perspective. I hope to celebrate when I turn 30!

I know what you mean.

I live in a place right now where EVERYBODY bitches and complains. As a matter of fact, that is all they do. Yet with all the whining and moaning, not a single one of them will get off their asses and do anything about it. Just more complaining.

The place I'm refering to is called Canada.

Why not complain, complaining is fun, hooray! I wish i could complain professionally.

Jami, HAPPY B-DAY!!! Just in case I forget OR don't log in on Friday in time to wish you well.

I'm sorry you're depressed about your birthday, but I do understand. Your life simply isn't how you thought it would be by this age. I can relate and I'm several years beyond 30. Turning 30 didn't bother me, but it turned out to be my worst birthday ever. The day started off okay. Then my husband woke up and went out of his way to ruin it. He succeeded. But, that year got better within a few months because I lost about 180 pounds--him! Took years off my appearance!

Any age is what you make it. Each birthday now is a little shocking because my life still isn't the way I envisioned it and I don't feel as old as the numbers show, but I definitely prefer birthdays to the alternative. I recommend that whatever else you do Friday, no matter how you feel, go somewhere and buy something silly or something that you can afford that you want--give yourself a birthday present. Giving myself presents, always makes me feel better, especially if they're something silly like a bouncing ball that fits in the palm of your hand and makes noise and flashes red lights--got one at the gift shop at the local Natural Museum of Science. It's so much fun! Great way to relieve stress too.

HEY SEAGULLS YOU SAY YOU HATE IT WHEN PEOPLE COMPLAIN, DON'T MEAN TO BE RUDE BUT ISN'T THAT WHAT YOUR DOING IN YOUR THREAD? U R COMPLAINING ABOUT OTHERS COMPLAINING IRONIC.

I think many people who are chronically unhappy with their life or appearance have grown comfortable in their misery. They wear it like a familiar old leather coat. They don't want to throw it away because it's all they have. So they never change, never grow, never escape from their miserable existance.

I used to try to help people like that. Try to get them to feel better about themselves and to see that life is too short to spend it in misery. It never works. They'll continue to complain about how fat they are, or how ugly they are, or how life is so unfair, on and on, and will just suck your spirit right out of you.

Everybody goes through depression from time to time. In these cases I'm more than happy to lend a sympathetic ear and give aid and comfort. But some people are just always miserable, year after year, as a permanent state. Until they decide they are tired of it, there's no helping them.

Agreed.
