Handle Complainers by Asking Them How They Intend to Fix Their Problem

Of all the different types of negative people, complainers can be the most frustrating.

One way to derail their pity party is simply by asking how they plan on dealing with the situation.

you could avoid this only by setting limits and distancing yourself when necessary.

You’d distance yourself, and you should do the same with complainers.

A great way to set limits is to ask complainers how they intend to fix the problem.

They will either quiet down or redirect the conversation in a productive direction.

Complainers just like to complain, so if you let them, they will.

you’ve got the option to still be a friend to them without giving in to their negativity.
