Can you share negative stories??

i am also dont like sharing bad stories to anyone, i like to share more on funny stories that all of you will be laugh and laugh. let us look more on the positive way of life. :)

I hate negative thoughts and negative thoughts about other people nowadays. Maybe I was bombarded with a lot of it for years when I transferred place and work place... whew.. a see different world.

Depends on the kind of negative story. Sometimes hearing negative stories are more realistic. It makes us realize we don't live in an ideal world.

That is true! I have some issues sometimes that I used to tell a friend or two just to get it off my chest. I think that is helpful to keep my sanity. But then I try to control and limit the things I tell my friends thinking that they might be just too fed up hearing the same old stories and not listen to their advice. So, as long as I can control myself, i spare them with the ugly stories I have. I want them to feel enthusiastic seeing me instead of trying to get rid of me as soon as they see me coming.

if we have such nice friends, we can share both good and bad stories. Life is not pink only. To be honest, i don't share much my private life, it is just my character...when chatting with friends, i just talking blah blah to be happy only. Thinking positive is nice, it keeps you move forward and get more success...

hi there.. I have this negative thinking as always. It's like that I am always worried that this might not work or nobody will like it. More on what ifs' and maybes. I don't why I' m like this. But sometimes I hate my self because there are some people who really supports me but having this kind of thinking really upsets them.They also keep on saying that believe in yourself, that no one can help you but yourself only. So, that's my story. =) Thank you.

Yes, positive stories are always better to hear. Some people like to hear negative stories like gossip, but I don't. If someone is talking negatively around me, I try to turn the conversation positive.

Hearing negative thoughts all the time can be a downer, but sometime a person needs to share them to help them through bad times too. I think there has to be a balance on what you share with your friends. Sometimes that type of friends you have determines what you talk about too. I have people that I go out with and have a good time with, but then a few friends that I can call when need a shoulder too.

If such question is asked to me, I would say, I can share negative stories. Its not about attracting or disappointing some one. But, just for the sake of chit chat any type of stories can be said. Even the negative stories have some warning messages and it resembles one's experience. I had shared my positive as well as negative stories of mine.

That is a good idea, especially if the person you are talking to is already laden with troubles and problems. The last thing that she will want, or need to hear is another negativity. But whenever we have problems and we need some moral support from friends, or just a person to listen to us, we can turn to other friends who are most likely can spare us the time and the support that we need. Sometimes we also need to talk about something that is bothering us, to unload and sometimes to hear some good advices when we could use a really good one. Problems and troubles are part of life, its unavoidable. But we can always choose, for the better part of our life, to dwell on the good things more than the bad ones.

Hi Pretty ! This is a beautiful suggestion for i will do my best to have my story colorful and worthy to be shared. Usually i got a story of bit negative ones and i am honest , those really my stories so those would be the things i will be sharing and i really discovered that there is really a time our friend would be fed up listening to our sad story. I am learning a lesson here , keep the negative , sad story then sharing the positive ones only.

I always share good news with family members, but sometimes when I've got negative news or worries, I cannot help but sharing with my closest friends. I know not everybody likes to hear about bad news, but I'll tell the one that is willing to listen to me and help me with it. I hope I can increase my "inner power", so that I CAN handle all the problems by myself.:)

Many people have experience of sad stories in their lives. Why I say many people rather I should say most people. I am also certainly in the list. The sad stories or painful stories are unwanted that many people don't like to share though their sharing can be learning to other people. I like to highlight on the point that make people miserable.My observation is related to bullying. Bullying to other causes bad stories or painful stories.

I do not share negative thoughts because I do not want others to be depressed. You are right, it's better to share good stories than bad ones so we can inspire others. Negative thoughts are contagious and so with positive ones. I would rather share things that would inspire others than to make them worried and unhappy. :) Thanks for this discussion pretty :)More happy days to you :)
