You shouldn't let your own happiness be brought down by random people. Sure, people you are close to, family and dear friends and loved ones, have an impact on your happiness, but those are also the same people you should be comfortable in saying, "Hey, relax, I'm in a good mood right now, don't be a dork." Or help them be happier.
Anyone else, though the right thing is to be considerate and respectful of other's people's feelings, should not be allowed bearing in your own joy. If a random schmoe friend is bringing you down, at the risk of sounding cliche, they're not much of a friend are they. The unhappy realities of life only make the happy moments that much more precious. Are those precious moments worth "giving" to a random jerk who only wants to bring other people down? It's not selfish to step away and say, You know what, I just don't want to deal with you, I'm going to go forward and be happy, smurf you.
I'm not much into the "adult" phase of my life, but one thing I learned, to be happy you need to be happy in yourself, and not let other people bring you down. Because, yes, they will. If you are happy, there are people who unknowingly will attempt to bring it down, just so they are not alone in their misery. It's up to an individual whether or not they're gonna let them.
