whats your biggest character flaw?

    I would say I'm a bit too giving of my time sometimes. I do things for others that wouldn't necessarily be done for me, which may leave me open to be taken advantage of. I get annoyed that the same wouldn't be done for me. I expect too much.

    I wish I was able to shake off rejection and heavy criticism off as easily as I would like. I get over it fairly quickly but it still stings for a good while. I like to think im doing well in something and am disheartened when someone doesn't share my positivity. I find nastiness and pettiness hard to deal with and it gets to me quite easily.

    my procrastination is something which could be worked on as well, don't leave until tomorrow what can be done today.

    I don't really have any. That's probably it.

    I get bored VERY easily... And I can't seem to shut my mind off and relax more often!

    If that was an interview question, I'd say that I'm just tooo focused, pay tooo much attention to detail, am tooo much of a workaholic, take on tooo much responsibility, and that I neglect my home life because my work is just that important to me.

    The interviewers would totally believe me too. I'm pretty sure of that.

    The truth is I'm too easily hurt, and I'm too insecure.

    I'm a workaholic and I really care about and have too much compassion for people. I'm also sarcastic.

    Isn't the term 'character flaw' just a fancy word for 'sin'?

    Ah no.

    I'm an awful racist.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 769 ✭✭✭Frito


    Sometimes I misdirect my frustration and take it out on people who don't deserve it, ie family members. Addressing this remains a work in progress.

    Too gentle with my lovers, I've been told.

    I'm too introverted. I hide it well though on the surface.

    I'm a thundering Cumt!

    Well, I used to be very indecisive, but now, I'm not so sure.

    My self-confidence isn't the best. I recently did an aptitude test that I was told I 'aced' except one module. I'm much more annoyed by not doing well in that one module than I am pleased at nailing the others.

    Severe social anxiety, which has negatively affected every single aspect of my life, and has (thus far) proven stubbornly resistant to medication and therapy.

    There was an XKCD on this subject just this week.

    Think me being a sex addict and pervert are probably mine :) A lot of my drive and motivation in life is fueled by making sure there are no Idle Hands for the Devil to make work for.

    I'm too nice

    I'm way too sarcastic, not that anyone here would notice

    I'm sometimes a little prejudiced. The rest of the time I'm very prejudiced.

    I keep people at arms length but to hide this I'm insincere.

    I'm a bad person
