I know I can be happy lots and lots of times, even if something bad happened right before, but I kind of notice that some of my friends could be, in a way, ignoring me. I'm not really sure if its because I'm too happy? I don't know someone help me understand this better.

i personally think there is no one who can be happy at all times. we cannot appreciate being happy unless we feel sad or the like.

I do not think it is unhealthy to be happy MOST of the time, but to be happy ALL of the time, I would think is unhealthy and is a facade someone puts up to hide something they feel vulnerable about. Happiness is a normal emotion...But anger, sadness, jealousy, and vulnerability are also normal emotions. If one is not able to show these, and hides them all with happiness 24/7, then I do not think it is beneficial, and it could turn into a bad thing.

Hello initialsgas. To be happy is a choice we make on a moment by moment basis. When thing happen to us good or bad we choose how we are going to respond to that event. Do not change your happiness for anyone, it is better to forgive and forget easily, without making yourself a martyr.

I don't think that being happy all of the time can be a bad thing. Being happy is something we strive for and enjoy. We can't be happy all of the time, but when we can, it's the best feeling in the world!

Im generally happy, I know Im sometimes annoyingly happy, I dont really care though! If your happy then stay happy, there are too many moody people in the world we need more happy ones. If your friends are really friends then they will not be ignoring you for being happy. Stay happy!

I don't know anyone whos always happy, but i don't think theres anything wrong with it because its nice to see that theres not always something to complain about. I do enjoy things when everyone is happy... because we all seem to get on better and have much more fun too.

Good Day Initials, About your question, personally, I don't think that there is such an individual that can be happy all the time. Life is not that fair for everyone. I don't think anyone can be that happy if he has not done any efforts of obtaining it through trials/challenges in life.^^,

I think its not a bad thing, sadness is created so that happiness is well appreciated
