your biggest character flaw?

Robsweezie · 11-10-2017 07:46PM #1

i will often happily admit when im wrong on something, but get pissy and defensive when others call me out on the same thing.

e.g ''sorry im late''

''no yer grand, there's still time''

''no theres no excuse, i shouldve been quicker''

ive apologised, and no harm done. but if they started telling me i was late, id be less apologetic.

Overthinking.

It causes untold anxiety and wastes a lot of time. I'm decisive enough when I'm dealing with things that only affect myself and my life, but I overthink things that affect other people to a ridiculous degree.

Procrasti...era f*ck it.

Wanderer2010 · 11-10-2017 07:52PM

I will hammer myself over the 1% of a job or problem in work that I couldn't figure out and not for a second praise myself for the excellent job of getting 99% of it right. Even when other people tell me how much I have helped and how useful I am, I am tormented by the 1% that got away...

I'm quite antisocial.

That's your biggest flaw. Not being able to recognize them

Mine is probably worrying too much.

I think trolls should be shot.

MilesMorales1 · 11-10-2017 08:06PM

I'm a massive procrastinator.
I hate confrontation.
I'm never really forceful enough to get a point across in conversations.
I tend to let anger over trivial things simmer for months and or years instead of just dealing with it.
Anti social and introvert to the extreme.

This is same as me.....instead of letting anger simmer....I just drop/stop talking to people,to them.what seems out of the blue

Can't seem to change either or bring myself to back down and go back talking to them people either

My modesty holds me back from greatness

If anything, I am TOO perfect

Too many to mention.

I don´t just over think I over feel. Every single thing. I am getting better thankfully.
Laziness.
Procrastination. If it can be done next week why do it today.
A voice that is never far away telling me ¨you aren´t good enough¨
At times precarious self-esteem
Selfishness
Jealousy
Envy
Gluttony

I'm very straight forward, and I mean VERY. I know plenty of people saying "Oh you know I'm a very honest person" but the truth is that a level of honesty is not received well in some cases.
Luckily, I have some compassion and am somewhat diplomatic which makes it a tad better.

retro:electro · 11-10-2017 08:23PM

I can be quite fiery, and if I'm in one of those moods then I can be very unpleasant to be around. But when I'm lovely- I'm very lovely. But my off days are becoming more and more frequent.
I'm getting lazier by the day too which feeds into my conversion into an anti social hermit.
I'm also quite shy when I first meet people. And awkward. I make all these things worse for myself by massively over thinking fairly innocuous situations.

7 Seconds... · 11-10-2017 08:24PM

My shyness, anxiety & I care far too much about what other people think, which only wrecks my head & increases my shyness and anxiety. But thankfully I am beginning to see a change in my attitude and I am starting to believe in myself again. Its onwards & upwards from now on:).

But in all seriousness, I definitely take other people's opinions about my thoughts/work performance/general traits too personally. I also tend to be shy in a group environment, and wouldn't really air my own opinion in said environment (not great when serving on a committee). Would rather say how I really feel via email or drunken text

Well able to talk face-to-face to someone, but at same time nod and agree with what they are saying so as not to cause offence.

Never great at maintaining eye contact growing up, but it's definitely something I have improved on recently. Definitely a better listener than talker.

XsApollo · 11-10-2017 08:31PM

If anybody wrongs me then that’s it.
Anything sneaky or dishonest then bam.....
Never to be acknowledged again.
They wouldn’t have a clue tho.
Unless they ask.
Once that happens I never go back.
Ruthless that way I am.

Doesn’t mean I am afraid of confrontation, quiet the opposite actually.

Sure. Does the boss know who you are on Boards then?:)

Same. I've actually come to realise recently when people say "tell me what you think, honestly".. that they actually don't want brutal honesty. Well, not the anna080 version anyway! :pac:
I just can't lie to people and bullsh!t them.

A normal woman by the sound of it. Know that you have 10 times the hormones of any man circulating in your system on any given day, so that's the reason imo. Having hormones doesn't make you great either so don't think that I'm "celebrating your uniqueness" either.

eviltwin · 11-10-2017 08:40PM

I'm really messy. Disgustingly so at times.

retro:electro · 11-10-2017 08:41PM

Oh swearing too. Lots of swearing.
But I'm cute so it's okay :pac:

Paz-CCFC · 11-10-2017 08:42PM

Well, it takes me a long time to learn anything. I'm kind of a goofball. Little stuff starts disappearing from the workplace.
