Bitter people.

They turn into one due to their negative experiences , or they are born with it ?
Share if you dare.

I think no one is born like that.. they turn into ones with bitterness as they cruise along their experiences which lead to difficult results for them

What about the people who are full of negativity and think that the whole world is against them out of their own inner phobia.
I know a very near and dear person like that , the whole family and extended family was scared of this person who had no negative experiences but was very bitter, harsh and would snap in a second.
In his old age this same person turned into very sweet and caring person though.

Re: Bitter people.

There is no genetic proof that we are born with bitterness!

Ohhhhhhhhhhhh but I have no scientific proof whether there is a chromosome that carries the gene of bitterness!

But behavior of some people make me think that they were plucked by their parents from a Karaily key vine.

You know karaila , knows as bitter gourd in English.

Re: Bitter people.

When we can inherit diseases, physical disabilities, why can't we inherit personality traits?.
More than half of what we have as personality comes from parents, it is a long discussion and GS is not an appropriate forum for this.

Re: Bitter people.

There was this speaker who wrote on th board "BITTER" and then said that their is only on letter difference between BITTER and BETTER...You can choose to be Bitter or Better..Your choice...

Some people are born with it. Some people have it forged from other peoples' hatered and theirselves loneliness. And some people just love to be bully.

I know what it is. Mmm...maybe there is a gene linked to bitterness then!

Btw, drink karaila ka juice and you will have the most amazing skin! Did it for my wedding and it worked. Hehehehehe! :)

**Its a syndrome called PMS. :sadiyah:

On a serious note, bitterness is a byproduct of your own actions or life. Bad things happen, some poeple can’t get over it and end up being bitter. They carry bitterness around, hence expelling any sweetness coming to their way. :cheegum:**

Re: Bitter people.

^ Tis' true.

Re: Bitter people.

Bitterness often results when negative things happen and people dont let them go or cannot let them go. Sometimes its not a person's fault and they end up missing out on so much of life. It takes more to be angry then happy.

Re: Bitter people.

It can be used as a defence mechanism too, to keep ppl, emotions at bay deliberately. reasons can vary.

Re: Bitter people.

interesting… so in short emotionally detached people are bitter as well :hmmm:

**But we have a “anday ka funda” here:

  1. are they emotionally detached because they’re bitter?
    or
  2. are they bitter because they’re emotionally detached?**

Re: Bitter people.

either one, as i said 'reasons vary' philosopher wali smilie

Re: Bitter people.

Definitely not born with it. I was *such *a happy person yesterday. :halo:

It’s the accumulation of experiences - not really one experience I think. Oh and it does not have to be permanent. Oh and reasons vary like the wisegurl said above!
