You had better think twice before deciding. “Who is a good person?” and “Who is the bad one?” There are
always different answers for these questions.
You should really know that a person has some certain qualities. Being understanding, motivating, realistic, romantic, friendly, jealous or talkative. The problem is to divide them into two groups: A) Good People's Qualities and B) Bad People's Qualities.
Let's think about how to call one as a bad person. Think that she is cool, romantic, jealous and lively. Does it mean that she is bad? Let's talk about another person who is realistic, funny, friendly but stingy. What do you think about his character?
Being funny and friendly is good but being stingy is a bad quality. Being realistic is sometimes bad but generally it is good. I don't know whether you are bad or good but I know that you are very confused at the moment.
