10 Tips For Marrying A Negative Person

Learn about: ten tips for marrying a negative person. You think you have found the perfect woman you want to marry, except that there is one aggravating thing: her attitude. She can be very negative, and it might be somewhat bothersome to you, but you have to learn to deal with it. There is no such thing as perfection. You have to accept her flaws, which obviously you have or you wouldn’t contemplate marrying her. But, here are some tips to make her cynical attitude a little more bearable.

1. Confront her about her negative attitude. Sit down and talk with her about her behavior. The woman you plan to marry may not realize how she always has a negative prospective on things. She may be willing to work on being more positive.

2.  Let her know how her negativity affects you. Being around someone who always seems to have a negative outlook on things can be draining on you, so you need to tell her that.

3. Ignore her when she is being negative. When she uttered something negative, when there is no reason for it, don’t respond. Just allow her to have her opinion. If you start to ignore her, maybe she will stop before you marry her.

4. Behave the way she does and see how she likes it. Obviously, this woman has some good qualities to make you want to walk down the aisle and spend the rest of your life with her, but there is one you can live without, her negativity. So do a little role reversal, just don’t tell her. Spend the entire day being negative about everything and see how she reacts.

5. Become annoyed with her. Let her know you understand she is a grown woman, but her unenthusiastic attitude is driving you crazy! And, it's not easy being around her when she is being negative.

6. Give her the silent treatment. When she is being overly negative, avoid being around her for a while. If she asks you why, tell her you needed a break from her scoffing behavior.

7. Tell her it will affect the marriage. She will not want to cause problems in the marriage. So, if she thought her being negative would be detrimental to your marriage, that might be the wake-up call she needs to change.

8. Video tape or record her in action. Let her see or hear how negative she sounds. It could possibly be a surprise to her, and she may not want to continue giving off the impression that she never has anything good to say.

9. Play the love card. Love is a powerful thing if used with care. If she loved you, she would at least have a positive attitude when the two of you are together; that should be when she is most happiest.

10. Ask her what you can do. Perhaps she is not just being negative, but maybe sometimes she does have a valid point to what she’s saying. Perhaps you have gotten so used to assuming the woman you are marrying is being negative that you are not even listening to her complaint. The next time you think she is being negative, ask her if there anything you can do to make it right, and see how far you get.
