i'd say pessimist tbh

I always look at what could go wrong but i don't let it worry me

If it does go wrong there's nothing i can do about it so what's the point worrying

i dont think that saying really applies to english language as most people regardless of wether they are pessimistic or optimistic will say the glass is half empty, as logic tells you when you remove liquid out of a glass it gets emptier

I'm just open minded. I also think or consider the worst that could happen, and weigh up the costs, draw backs and what not.

By doing this I guess it makes me a pessimist though.

I like to think the glass is half full but in some cases prepare for the worst as anything better is a bonus.

Always expect the worst, then anything else is a bonus.

I too am a pessimist I look at what could go wrong, so therefore if it does go wrong it's what I thought would happen anyways... however if it goes right it brings an even bigger smile =
