I cannot stand it when someone constantly complains about the same thing, such as something being wrong in their life and then they just don't do anything about it. I've seen it time and time again on Facebook, Twitter, here and other social media websites. People complain about the same thing every single day, people tell them ways that they could change it or make it better, and they don't do anything. It's almost as if they just want to have something to complain about.
Are people really that afraid of change?

Sometimes, people aren't happy unless they're miserable. Does that make sense? Complainers are always going to complain, no matter what. No matter what happens in their life, they're going to only see the negative, and then complain about it. My brother is like that.

@thislittlepennyearns Haha, I think I must see those same ones as you do. I just shake my head and move on. Not worth wasting my time on them. They'll just complain about it anyway. haha

Yes, that gets old..either do something about it or quit complaining. People don't want to hear the same thing every day.

Exactly I'm glad you agree with me. lo l. I also hate when you bring this to their attentionand they say its so and sos fault. no the fact that you haven't changed is no one but your fault.

they are afraid of change for the worse. problem is sometimes no suggestions will work out. like i didn't want to move to Florida but it was that or be on the street with my dog. yes i could give up my dog and live with one friend in AZ but sorry i would rather have my dog and complain. but lost my dog anyway. so you see what i mean? can't move back because i can't afford an oxygenator for the trip. people suggest all kinds of things i have tried to no avail. so yes some complain because it is all they can do to vent.

No they are just afraid of doing anything out of their comfort zone.

If they're complaining about something they can change then they should and not complain. If it's not something they can change then they just like to complain

If they have the ability and they are too lazy to change, then it's there fault. I don't want to hear you complain if you have the power to change the situation.

I think they're just fishing for validation and answers that they like, rather than constructive advice.

Which might be really the part that annoys me the most. I cannot stand people that want to complain about stuff but they don't want to change.

It bugs me sometimes to but mostly I feel they just need to vent and maybe aren’t ready or able to change the situation yet.

Change is the key..if they don't want to change,leav them to their fate and 1 day they would realize themselves and CHANGE
