Very true. Characters who get everything right aren't real. Besides, writing a character's failing is often one of the most interesting things for me.
I try to find a medium. Sometimes I'll write happy stuff and sometimes I'll write angsty stuff. I get overwhelmed with too much of the same after a while, but that happens to me with everything. But even the happy stuff (unless it's really short) has a trace of something more serious running through it.
