nature = pessimist, but when in situations i can't fix or make someone feel better you'll find me giving pep talks and trying to be an optimist. i don't usually pull it off to well tho.

Which is evidenced by your "optimist" choice ... "I think it's ok to be an optimist." LOL. http://oakhurstonline.com/icon/laugh.gif

I'm an optimist about people in general, but a pessimist about about of situations.

I'd like to be an optimist but I doubt it would work out.

Most definitely an optimist - even when I'm getting beaten over the head - I still look for the best of the situation. http://oakhurstonline.com/icon/rolleyes2.gif

Optometrist!
I mean - Optimist.
Unless I really really want something to happen a certain way... then I tell myself "It won't happen" So when it does, I dance on clouds. When it doesn't, I'm not disappointed.

Optimist - there's still something to fill the glass, right???
I've almost always been an optimist - when I graduated from high school my most memorable grad present was a pair of bugs bunny eye shaped rose colored glasses from a friend who found my optimism tiring and said one day I'd need those little plastic lenses in order to color my view of my world when it got too real.

I really don't care how much is in my glass and if it is 1/2 full or 1/2 empty. I just want to know who's been messing with my glass!!!!! And, when and or are they gonna fix it???

I'm a Glass half full person myself...
