You must not know many married couples.

Yes, my ex-wife!

A lot of people honestly don't know how to make themselves happy and rely on outside forces

someone did a scientific study that suggested negative people live longer

yes, i know people who love being miserable

Thing is, if I didn't have so much self-loathing & hatred, I probably wouldn't go to the gym near as frequently as I do.

Some people find some measure of comfort in being miserable, negative human beings. It fulfills the human brains desire to put its' world in order so it can reduce the chance of surprise. If everything is wrong with everything all of the time then they can be satisfied that there are no surprises because everything is as they predicted.

These are also people of low education and intelligence.

It's pretty easy to be miserable when the people running this country are in control of a bunch of idiots.

Just a casual observer to this thread...I didn't think Paige's initial post was over the top. I can't and will never be able to imagine what losing a child is like, so not having a certain amount of empathy makes sense to me because I will never understand it. However, Paige, you lost all credibility when you cowered in a corner and started threatening Wink. That was uncalled for and made you look foolish. Your initial response was ok; you didn't need to feel defensive. I understood it, as harsh as that opinion may have been. But I think you were getting called out for a long history of "look-at-me" posts. Just my opinion. I did get where you were coming from initially and I thought maybe 33 had lost a child and that was why you got such a harsh reaction.
