Communicating with negative people and the effect it has on your happiness

Negative people are known to be positive energy vampires.

Automatically when you communicate with someone who is the voice of doom, this pulls your positive energy down. Not that it changes how you may think, but communicate long enough and it will change how you are feeling. Your happy mood becomes weighed down by the negative pull of another individuals' bad mood.

When you wake up in the morning and you are in a wonderful mood, the day is beautiful and the plans for the day are what you have been looking forward to for a long time. Then the telephone rings you say hello, and boom, drama starts. The person on the other end has a sour tone in their voice as they proceed to tell you how horrible their morning is and that it may be a beautiful day but its bound to rain in this horrible town, and there is nothing to look forward to.

Communicating with negative people can wash out your happiness and leave you feeling drained in an instant or over time, depending on how often you communicate with the negative person.

Life brings ups and downs yes but, some people are stuck in the pit of believing life has no happiness to offer. Others are in the pit of angry feelings and portray confrontation each time they converse. There are some who thrive on negative feelings and they only feel good when they make others feel bad. The old saying of misery loves' company is so true.

When you communicate with positive people, your spirit stays happy. The energy is positive and it is true that more positive things are attracted your way.

When the dagger of a negative person is put amongst a positive person you feel the muddy heavy feeling that all in all, brings you down.

Sometimes we have no choice but to communicate with negative people. This could be a co-worker, relative or an in-law (also known as the out law) In this case, try to make communication with the negative person as little as possible. Say what needs to be said or better yet, say as little as possible. Sometimes it feels good to vent back to a negative person, but all this does is lower you to that same negative level. As a result of this you end up feeling the gross feelings of negativity once you feed into the other persons' negative energy.

Negativity effects happiness without even realizing it sometimes. The negative words of another at the start of the day can cling to you throughout the rest of your day, which in return makes you feel bad and steals your happiness.

When you communicate with a negative person you take on their journey of feeling doom and gloom.

Life is too short to feel negative. Stay positive and avoid negativity as much as humanly possible.
