Each person has their own behavior and attitude though not everyone has positive thoughts and they chose to be a person who sees negativity in everything. Being with your friends is great but being with negative friends, colleagues or even strangers around you is TOTALLY NOT OKAY. Let me tell you why, but let's talk about what a negative person is first.
A negative person is someone who forgets to see the brighter side in every situation and always thinks negatively about everything.
Some characteristics or traits of a negative person are always complaining and criticizing. This person is arrogant, pessimistic, dishonest, envious, selfish, and self-centered. Besides, his rude and doesn’t forgive everyone because he believes that he’s always right and chooses to blame others rather than accepting his mistakes.
A negative person

-makes you hopeless like him that might give you loneliness, depressions, and stress.
- takes away your joy and happiness.
In short, a negative person doesn’t give you something good. Besides, he will change you and makes you a pessimist like him.
How to Avoid Negative People
Walk away. If you see the person coming, turn around and walk away. Take the other direction. Furthermore, avoid the places where they tend to hang out or go, especially, when you know their routines.
Stay busy. Keeping yourself busy is another way to avoid them for they will see that you're not available for a conversation because making eye contact invites communication. So, always pretend to be busy when they're around. For example, keeping your phone handy and pretend to be completely engaged in it when the person you're trying to avoid shows up unexpectedly.
Surround yourself with people who lift you up. Look for people who help you feel good about yourself and the world around you instead of a friend who always complains about everything. Also, make sure to limit yourself in mingling and responding to negative people or negative topics but if you can't really avoid it, try to change your topic in a nice way.
Block the person on social media. Another effective way to avoiding the negative person in your life is by blocking them on social media. Nowadays, social media is getting more popular and one of the best ways to reach people. Allowing a pessimist to post on your Facebook wall is a bad idea for they will drain you and change your good mood. That's why always be careful with the people who ask you to be your online friends.
To Sum up, Negative people won't give you anything good. People like this are always complaining, criticizing, arrogant, pessimistic, dishonest, envious, selfish, and self-centered.
So, the best thing to do is pay attention to how people make you feel and if you notice that this person gives you negativity and changes your good perspective, avoid or distance yourself from him. Then, keep your true and good friends closer to you because they are the people who will help you to be a better person and to be more optimistic in life.
