Pessimist, optimist, or realist? Which are you?

I consider myself a realist, but a pessimistic realist--I tend to prepare for the worst, hope for the best. DH says I am too negative though. What would you consider yourself?

The exact same way as you...I would rather be prepared for the let down then gets hopes up and then fall for a huge let down.

Definitely an optimist. Always thinking positive and hoping for the best. I know, is not the best way to think sometimes.

I am a pessimist inside, but an optimist outside.

It's a job hazard of being in HR and always having to explain bad things to people witha positive spin!!

I'm the same.....I tend to think the worst of a situation before it happens...prepare for the worst, tend to be negative...DH HATES it.

I'm a realist. I tend to be a bit more pessimistic, but I try to see the bright side of things

Its funny.
I am always a pessimist. In life, at work - which ofcourse is more like a realist.

However, when it comes to FH and me, I am the optimist of our relationship. Weird huh/

This is totally who I am. DH is so much more optimistic. I try to be more like that...but when you have had a lot of let downs in life you try to be prepared.
