Speak to them, Honesty is the best policy, If you chat with them tell them how you feel, If you feel like its hard to open up then write them a letter, Do they know they are doing this and how this makes you feel?

You don't deserve to be treated poorly, especially by a friend. If this friend is being mean or rude to you, its okay to keep your distance from them. It doesn't mean you have to stop being friends with them, you can just spend more time with other friends who are kinder to you

Change your friends, people that are always negative speaking intoxicate your life. You need to be sound positive people. You see they say that positive thinking brings positive results and negative things bring negative results. If your friends are always negative towards you change them because they mean you no good and they will not stop until they have broken you in two.
Even so you should not consider them your friend you should call them your Acquaintances because friends are people that support, care,love and look out for each other, your friend is a person that defends you in front of others when you are wrong but correct you when your alone together.

Just wanting to let everyone know that we are all wonderful in our own ways! Don't let other people tell you otherwise! Loving ourselves is the most important love we need!
If your friend truly cares about you, he/she will understand that this is hurting you and that it should stop, so do not be afraid to voice out your opinion to your friend and tell him/her how you feel~
Please stay awesome and keep a positive attitude! Most importantly, talk it out to someone! There will always be someone right here for you! You will never be alone~ Cheer up!

Friends being negative basically result in two different situations; the first is that they aren't a true friend. and it might sound stupid but it's the truth. the second is that they've never had a good friend, and they're used to showing their affection within that way.. my advice to you would be to confront them about it and let them know how you're feeling. don't let their negativity become a usual thing. if you get used to that; you'll expect it from everyone eventually which isn't good. if they don't change; leave them and give them time. you can't change anyone except for yourself. and your friend can't love anyone until they love them self.

If your friend is always being negative towards you then you need to let them know that they are. If someone is always being negative towards you then they aren't much of a friend it seems. A friend is someone who's supposed to be there for you. (Sure you can joke around and make fun of each other, but always being negative isn't being a friend). So you need to let them know about it and from there decided if you want to still be friends with them. If they realize that their behavior isn't that of what a friend should be then you could stay friends, if they however don't change their behavior then maybe it's time to find a new friend.

Maybe talking to your friend about their negativity could help? They may not be aware that they are doing it and sometimes it is better to get it out in the open rather than letting emotions build up which may end in a breakdown of the relationship. Dealing with it sooner will bring the issue to light and give your friend the chance to explain and change the way they are behaving towards you. You have to decide if the relationship is worth losing over something that can probably be resolved by having a conversation and addressing the matter.

Never address a point made rudely, and kindly but firmly address the rudeness. Don't let them get whatever they want from you, no matter how reasonable, if they ask rudely. They may turn even more vicious at first - that means that you got them. Make sure to protect yourself, but DO NOT give them what they want. Better remove yourself from the situation. Don't react with anger. They can say whatever they want, so long as they do it politely. Don't ignore bad behavior. They will try to convince you of changing strategies. If you stay firm, they will have to adjust or leave.

Speak to your friend- perhaps they don't even realise they are being negative towards you. By talking to them about it, it draws attention to it. You could ask them why they are being negative to you, explain to them how it is effecting you/ how it is making you feel and you could ask them to stop doing it again in the future. If they continue to be negative towards you then you must ask yourself why you are friends with this person and if you want to continue a friendship with someone who treats you this way.

When in a safe environment, ask them if there's something you did or if something else is bothering them. Maybe it's not (only) you they're negative towards. It's necessary to know the persons circumstances. If you're close enough or maybe even a stranger on a listening website.. offer them your ear and shoulder,, make sure you mean no harm and are there for them. Don't always assume it's your fault. Consider that it could be unreasonable behavior on their part. Also, be aware that, of course depending on the circumstances, not every friendship or acquaintanceship is meant to last forever.
