RE: Don't let someone's negativity ruin the flow of your day.
You friend should have apologised for coming late, that's a decent thing to do in such situation since he/she was the one that didn't come on time. Regarding the exhibition, it was nice you stood your ground. People have influenced most of us to engage in activities we never planned for and later regretted ever yielding to the pressure. Next time they will understand when you tell them that you' re not interested in something, that you are truly not interested in it. You wanted to see you friend and have a good time while the came to persuade you to go to an event you're not interested in going. Your meeting already had conflicting purpose, that was why the outcome was that way. Anyway, just move on and don't allow the event get to you
Well I recently saw the movie Yes man with Jim Carrey. I thought it was pretty cool the idea of saying yes to everything. However it means you get involved in some things that you don't want to do. I think saying no is as important as saying yes. However you don't want to say no to everything.... there has to be a balance.
I understand. You don't have to say yes or no to everything. You have to know when to shift ground and when to hold your ground. Beside, one shouldn't be forced or cajoled to do something if they truly don't want to do it. We have to learn to be respectful of other people's resolve or opinions sometimes.
