How do I deal with this? This is I suppose in the category of "dealing with everyday negative people".

I am in a community of women who are single, who are not on the whole PD/LOA, and who routinely spew out negative beliefs about age and other obstacles to finding love, and talk about how hard X is and how hard Y is. I even posted that my mom - who is a first class LOA practicioner - had NO problem finding anyone at 35. She just did not experience ageism. In fact despite what everyone else said - "OMG it's so hard in your thirties" - she had a fabulous time and has been telling me that this is a GREAT time, there was just MORE to choose from in her 30s than ever before - which runs contrary to "popular wisdom", so I can only credit her LOA mojo.

Someone else however posted, "But that was then! It's all different now!".
I REALLY can't believe that it's THAT DIFFERENT now than it was then. Women have always been complaining about age.

I also mentioned that I DON'T read other people's personal ads, because it makes me feel negative, which affects my filters - due to the communities not being very LOA/PD conscious, this kind of got a "whatever". I'm almost thinking I just won't even discuss love in non-PD/LOA circles.

I know that I should just DITCH this community and ditch all my sources of slumberland negativity - I already have pretty much quit reading the news more than once a week - but it's been a great support in other ways.
