What do you like best about people?

[SueSue 0]

As I was reading different posts tonight I noticed some responses made me feel good and some stirred up bad feelings. it got me to thinking about how people make us feel. I have always liked nice people, people that seem to really care and want to help in even the simpliest way. I don't like people that seem to have an opinion and only theirs seems to be important. I don't like people that are negative or seem to come at me with strong statements. I like people to approach me kindly and show interest in me. I don't like "Know it alls" unless they really know. I love intelligent people. I enjoy confident people, yet they are humble. I love people that listen, really listen.

I like everything you both just said......

I have always believed that if you cant say anything nice....

just keep your mouth shut.

I have also noticed from a one of my threads on Christmas, not all people think like that. I was taken back by some of the things that they were saying to each other.

I like go getters, people that are direct, forthright, honest and work for what they want. I have absolutely no patience for whining, woe is me types or types that dont make their own luck.

Voo, I like honest people too. Very important to me and hard to fine!! I like direct people also. I love nice people as i said but only if it is genuine, not if they are only nice to your face and someone else other times.

A strong sense of humor. Beyond anything else, this is - to me - the key sign of intelligence and wit.

Honesty, openess, being direct. To me, that's very close to being trustworthy.

People who are competent.

People who put forth effort to better themselves.

People who are not afraid to march to the beat of their own drum.

I agree! I like people who focus on what they can do and people who view an obstacle as a challenge to overcome.

Yeah, something positive!

I like people like my grandma - warm, caring, always interested in people around her, laughs at little things, doesn't get mad over little things either, knows how to have a good time.

I like honesty and humility.

I like loyalty and sense of humor--especially people who can laugh at themselves and do it regularly.

I like people who refuse to be a victim no matter what their circumstances may be.

I like people who are direct and hard working.

I'm sure I could think of more...

I like straight forward, honest, capable people around me.

I like respectful people - if a person is respectful of others then they are normally a very good person and well rounded. You can have a strong opinion about something and still be respectful of others opinons. I like to think that was the most important thing I taught my children, respect yourself first, only know you and can you respect your thoughts and actions? Respect others, whether they be above, below or your equal, if you treat a person with respect most of the time they will in return treat you the same. I've always like John Travolta - always been my favorite actor and I thought he just seems like a nice man and then I heard Oprah talking about him with someone one day and they said he always treats everyone with respect and he finds something interesting about everyone. From the waiter who brings his food to the senator sitting at his side, he doesnt' treat one better then the other. I just think thats how I want people to perceive me.

Them next to respect has to be humor. Laughter is the best medicine and I need it daily. I enjoy being around people who can find joy in the smallest of pleasures.
