Is it normal that i always focus on the negatives in people?

I had a friend point this out as we were having a rousing discussion. Basically we had to list good qualities about one another. As you can tell by the tittle I was at a loss of words and felt like a jerk since she basically had some on her list while i had not a lot. She told me that i focus too much on the negatives in people and not the positives. So i want to know if other people actually see the worst in people first or is it just me?

    It's hard NOT to look at the bad in everyone. Society is cruel and hard on everyone. All we do is adapt. I do the same, so do most people I know. You're perfectly fine!

    people naturally look for the worst in others, but you should try to look for the positives anyway, that's what i do, and i'm alot happier because of it.

    People suck plain and simple. I see your brilliance in usually thinking in a pessimistic way. I'd do the same. Normal.
