My work day is upbeat with a great bunch of colleagues and we have a lot of fun and laughs.
DH works away most weeks and we only speak for 10/15 minutes each evening. Then he comes home and is Mr Negative about pretty much everyone and everything. It's draining. He is due home any time now and I should be looking forward to it, but I am almost dreading it.
My DF lives alone as mum died a few years ago. I speak to him most evenings and whilst he keeps busy and is relatively happy he is very negative about people. He sees bad in everyone, particularly those who 'have money' - whatever that means!
DC are young adults. DD is a positive person who has a very active life and many friends. She is at Uni about an hour away, i talk to her a few times a week and this is a pleasure.
DS is very quiet, he doesn't moan about people or situations but has low self esteem and worries me.
I don't really know why I am posting but the negativity is getting to me and I don't know how to handle it. I would appreciate any thoughts.
