Enthusiasm and confidence...a good way to discurage users into your life?

Question

I used to be shy as a child and I believe that I attract hateful users into my life. I wonder are manipulative users distracted by the confident and happy person?

Answer 1

I tend to be the same type of person myself. We went to our high school re-union many years ago and one man kept staring at me and he finally came over and said "Wow, I can't believe you are the same person!"

Anyhow I strongly believe there are 2 types of people in this world: 1) People who "fill you up" (meaning very positive people) and 2) People who "drain you" ( the whiners, the people who go through life thinking their glass is only half-full).

The "drainers" tend to latch on to we positive people because they think that somehow we can magically fix their lives. I have quickly learned how to identify these negative people as soon as they are introduced to me and I avoid them like the plague. They take too much from me.
