Question of the Day - Sunday, July 6th, 2025

[Somewhere_In_The_Clouds]

Pessimist

 

[Gill-b]

Prepare for the worst and hope for the best.

 

[Luckyhen006]

Pessimist.

 

[tripletfeb]

I'm a realist, the glass is always half full. But it's full of piss sooo...

 

[5Australorpasaures]

Suspicious

 

[C Siena]

An optimist but one who doesn't count on things always going well but know by the grace of God, I have the strength to get through.

 

[The Moonshiner]

I can be either so guess I'll answer somewhere in the middle

 

[Sally PB]

I read this somewhere:

"A pessimist is someone who feels bad when they feel good, because they're afraid they'll feel worse when they feel better."

I'm in with the realist/in the middle group.

 

[BoundlessLove]

In between

 

[Evadig]

Pessimist. And because I'm always expecting the worst, I'm frequently delighted by being proven wrong. And when I'm proven right, I was mentally prepared for it so it's easily overcome. I know plenty of optimists who fall to pieces when things don't work out, so I don't know that my outlook isn't the better recipe for happiness.

Same here.
