Any of you guys get comments about being negative? I've had a few people tell me that recently.

It's a vague observation from other people so it doesn't bother me but I'm wondering if this feedback might help me make any improvements. I've noticed that I can be too forthcoming about my thoughts which I believe are realistic and could be interpreted as negative by others. I'm wondering if it would be better to be less genuine and dictate my behavior to illicit positive experiences in other people instead. My concern is that I don't want to over adjust into "fake" territory, however.
