[quote=Anonymous]Lol @ the suggestions to tell her to stop. I mean, sure, try it, maybe she is an outlier. But my experience is that becomes one more complaint for most people like this. They may cut it out for awhile (more likely direct it to someone else and complain but you), but the negativity is so ingrained in their thinking patterns it comes back pretty quickly. You can't change someone, you just have to manage how their behaviors impact you either through limiting amount of contact, topics, or some personal zen of your own to be able to let the complaining happen and then roll off your back. Meditation cam be helpful with learning to allow a thought to be present and not be stressed out by it. [/quote]
