Pessimists are important, they are beneficial towards survival. If you were to go up to someone and ask them if they would rather be friends with an optimist or a pessimist, they would most likely say pessimist. But pessimists aren't negative, that's just one type. Pessimists are good at thinking about the risks of things, and the difficulty. It's not a bad thing whatsoever. If out the world was made up of only optimists, out population would be much lower. For example, an optimist invented the airplane, so people could travel faster, while a pessimist invented the parachute, so it would be safer. In other words, they are perfectionists. They think about the negative things and fix them so someone else doesn't have to. That doesn't sound bad, right?
Just give them a chance,
