We will be encounter with frustration for sometimes no matter in the workplaces,routine lives or other circumstances.Some people will be bad losers when facing to the love affairs.After being hurt by love,they become fragile and need a long time to have the scars healed.
Some people will be bad losers in the work competitions.They enjoy the achievements from the work they are focusing on.They need applause and high income to fulfill their lives,and once they decide to do the best,they are reluctant to fail.
Last but not the least,there are some people who will be bad losers in every aspect of their lives.They are sensitive to their reputations,and consider it most important to protect their self-integrities.They want to be prefect in every time for everything.
Life just likes a large stage,where there is a climax,where there is an end.What would you do when meeting with the frustration?Are you a bad loser?If yes,in what kind of aspects?

Sometimes, I am a bad loser, yes, but I try hard not to be. It's better for me when I try to be happy for those who reach success, for winners :)

No, I'm not a bad loser. If anything happen to me I don't always think that it's the end of the world. There are many chances that will be possible to carried out or happen with being a loser but a winner besides the eventualities that happen into my life.
I always consider more things for not feeling a grave frustration in life...I don't want to be always a loser I want to be a successful in life that is why I always find the way to make it happen..."don't loss hope". I believe that a time is not always a dark night but there's a light after night time...

I would not considered myself a bad loser. In affairs of the heart I am more of a sad loser. In all other aspects of life I consider losing a learning tool and I make sure the next time I am not the loser.

Yes I am. After being hurt I need a very long time to forget and be healed. But after I clear my eyes and manage to stand up. Im okay. I always wanted to compete in every competition and always wanted to win but if I failed the first time I don't have the nerve in trying again.

I'll admit it, YES I am a pretty horrible loser. I am very competitive and like to win. I'm sure once I have children I will become a better loser though, because it would be downright mean to kick a kids butt at everything.

Hi earth panther: lol. Don't worry i had the same problem and i think the best way to stop being a bad loser is to be completely objective on what you lose and what you can do to be better in this subject. After making this mental exercise I think people used to look for solutions and not only being a bad loser. Thanks for your answer. Have a nice day.

Nope! A big part of life is winning, and a big part of life is losing. If we won, or lost, all the time, life would be miserable. When I lose at something, I just take it as a learning experience, and think of what it is that i can do so I don't lose in the same situation the next time around.

Hi, Pengyachu! Welcome to myLot. 
I am not sure what you meant of being a loser if one is being sensitive to his or her reputation or protecting one's self-integrity (?)
Anyway, when I am frustrated, it depends on the real situation and how bad the thing affects me and who the people are involved in making me feel that way. Sometimes, I can be as tough as a rock, but other times, I can be deeply hurt, but most of the times, after such failure I would bring back myself to give and get more until I accomplish something for self-satisfaction.

I have to say that I do get disappointed when I lose. I try not to show it. I try my best to overcome it.

I remember as kids one of my friends was a sore loser.Four or five of us used to play Monopoly together and whenever this friend used to lose he would upset the board and ruin our game and go away.Some people just do not like the feeling of being behind someone else in life.

I can be actually. Especially if it's a board game I think I am good at. Like this one time I was playing Scrabble against this kid that was really bad at spelling, and I though yes I have this one in the bag. Little did I know he schooled me by like 50 points. :( I was so mad. When I used to play rep soccer I was a really bad loser when the other team played dirty, like slide tacking and elbowing. I would usually make a big stink about it to the ref and get our team in trouble. I felt it was injustice though!

I'm a terrible loser when it comes to competing in sports and also in video games. When it comes to Sports I practice A LOT until I think I am nearly perfect, so if someone comes in and beats me easily I get very frustrated. If I think someone didn't deserve to win, thats also when I become a sore loser.

Well no one likes to loose however it is how we loose that matters .I believe we cant always be the best at everything so we need to respect all others abilities .I will for example go up to the winner and congratulate him or her because it must be one heck of a person to beat me

Hi pengyachu: I think i was a bad loser in games and competitions since i was a kid till i was a teenager but i have learnt that to loose is part of our lives and that losing is not that bad if this helps you to be a better person in the subject you lose. As my father used to say, there will be at least a person that will be better than you in some aspects of your life so you don't need to have so proud of yourself that you can't acept that sometimes we lose. Thanks for starting this question. Have a nice day.
