Miserable people.

Exactly as you say Miss Tree!

Yep I agree. I juts dont think its helpful even to oneself to be so negative. As I have said before a good debate is one things, constant carping is something else. DH and I are doing our best to keep each other upbeat and not worrying our families that we are sad not to see them they know that and feel the same. We have neighbours who are flouting the rules but its not our business so we dont worry about it. Stay cheery MissTree

I'm not miserable ,honest,I am passionate about some things and will fight my corner for them for as long as I can breathe.
Apart from those I'm the most laid back person on the planet ,love my music,food the people in my life ,my amazing OH and my kids and GC ,the greatest of gifts .I try to avoid the folk on here who irritate me the most,maybe you should do the same .
Type what you would answer and then DELETE it ,it gets it out of your system and keeps you out of the arguement when you'd rather not be involved .

Blimey MissTree, you been on bravery pills?
There do seem to be all sorts on here, miseries, black-catters, those who want a fight, anyone will do. Some who know best about everything. Some who see the funny side, handy when times are had. Some wise old or youngish heads. Some very fair sounding people who don’t shout but their opinion is worth a lot. Bit of a mush-mash really.

Being angry, sad, happy, content are all parts of being human, there is nothing wrong with any of those emotions.

You’re right, paddyanne. To feel passion about something is a great thing .

There are more of the - for want of a better word - ‘nice’ people on here than the others. And I do avoid stuff I don’t like. I can’t be bothered to argue much though it does happen ?. I recognise that Gn is a safe place to rant when you need to .
My husband once said to me!” Why do you spend so much time on negatives ?” ( or words to that effect) . So I looked it up on a psychology forum and apparently if there’s a problem the brain wants to sort it but if all is ok it doesn’t need a mention.

I think what I mean by miserable people is those who give you a one liner like’ well switch it off then’ or those who dismiss someone’s feelings.

Yes Alima . I knew it was a risky one !

MissTree you're right about wanting to sort out a problem.
I sometimes do as paddyanne says and write a post, or part of one, then delete it while thinking "What the heck. I really don't need to feel so involved in this."

'One day we'll look back and laugh.
Why wait?
Just have a good laugh now.'

And re those who know it all .... I’m full of admiration. The older I get, the less I know.

Better go and make a cuppa. I’m getting right out of my tree today. Hoho.

FarNorth. Maybe I shudda deleted this one ?

I think honestly we are never too old to learn and I find it helpful when my spelling or grammar is corrected.

It also hurts my head to read punctuation in the wrong places, it interrupts the written flow.

However I don't correct people, as I know some do not like it. I also definitely do not agree with people who are rude about it.

I’m glad you didn’t MissTree, sometimes posts like yours make me realise I’m not the only one, if you know what I mean?

Toad. I think I love you !

Please MissTree, not in front of everyone!?. Remember......no touchy?

ROFL

MissTree. Love your name!
I enjoy reading most of the threads on here but I understand that sometimes it can get a bit personal and that can be uncomfortable reading.

Great thread!
I avoid all political threads now.
There is one poster who I find very unpleasant, once I see their name on a thread I will not post.

Misery, happiness, sadness, joy, anger, fear are all part of human emotions which most of us will experience at some time in our lives. It does not mean that those you find Miseries on here MissTree are permanently like that. There are plenty of happy threads on here such as culture/arts, food, gardening and style/beauty which may suit you better. Perhaps you could start your own happy thread telling us what makes you feel jolly/cheerful. We would love to hear!

Wgat have i missed now?

My flipping phone!

What have I missed now?

Kitty
I love your fat finger posts. Keep them coming. ???

MissTree
Totally agree. But misery loves company, doesn't it?

MissTree It would be interesting to know which "miseries" you are referring to. As expected, already someone has come on citing an unnamed "unpleasant" person whose threads she refuses to read.

I suspect that some people define a "misery" as someone whose opinions they disagree with.

Here we go. Give me the evidence ... hahaha.
