Should

Ladies – If you have a male mate, and he appreciates seeing an attractive woman, should you be happy for him?

More detail – you have a male mate, and he notices an attractive woman – maybe a picture of one, one on TV, or one just walking down the street. Not that he doesn’t find you very attractive, because you already know that he does. So then, you notice that he becomes very happy by observing how attractive this other woman is. Should you be happy for him since he is so happy? If you are not happy for him, then are you being selfish, egotistical, insecure and self-centered?

Should one stay positive even though circumstances are bad?

I have a huge question and I’ve been wondering this.

Sometimes seeing the real thing, that things suck, getting angry frustrated over them, makes us push towards better things.

Take a bad job for example, a negative attitude, would make one’s life miserable while there and might even get us fired, but what if that is the motivation we need to strive for better jobs?

Wouldn’t staying positive just make us comform with the present and maybe not look for better things since we are “already happy” without them?

What do you think?

In order for things to change, should you change your attitude?

What I mean is, for things to change positively.

For instance,
A person suffering through a depression who wants to overcome it should change their views and their attitudes in order for them to make a successful recovery.

Or,
Someone who doesn’t have many friends because of his roguish behavior and no one trusts him, should change his attitude and be more open and polite in order for people to respect him.

And even in a bad neighborhood or apartment complexes where there’s constant evictions, violence, threats, and drugs involved and the community and managers need to change their attitudes to make it a safer place.

Also if a high school student is failing and doesn’t really care, but notices that because of his carelessness, it’s tearing him and his family apart and getting him nowhere in life except with people who make even worse decisions such as doing drugs or being apart of a violent group. He should change his attitude and get his education in order for him to feel successful and happy.

So is it true, in that sense, that you must change your attitude about certain things in order to make a positive change?

Or is there another way of explaining it?

Should you ever feel guilty for being happy?

I know other people would tell me the relationship I am in or really want to be in is crazy and unrealistic. Everyone says to do what makes you happy. I guess I’ve been trying to live up to my family’s expectations too long. They say they don’t have any, but they do.
