Do you consider yourself a petty person?

[Odyssey 5,716]

A self-explanatory topic. Would you consider yourself petty?

I know I am. I tend to fuss over the most silliest of things, from worrying about the Sun will explode in the next 4 billion years to thinking about most of the things in my past. I always try to focus on the present instead and work on bigger things I should be worried about, but that doesn't seem to ever work. xP

 

And just a heads up, I don't mean pretty. I'm talking about the word that means "getting a negative reaction over small things". Just so you know.

I'm sort of a petty person, I worry mostly about school. Sometimes I get lousy grades in stuff that doesn't really affect my progress in school, but I still get worried and feel like as if the world is ending.

I consider myself a pretty person. Pretty damn ugly.

[Kyoshi Frost Wolf 41,441]

Does having anxiety over all the smallest things count? Also I tend to do comparisons of myself to others and then thinking  Iam inferior to others at times..I'd say that is pretty bad. I try to not do that but it is often difficult.

Sometimes, because I have a bad habit of judging people even when I don't know them. But it's something I've been trying to become more aware of and improve.

I'm.. generally.. half half.. xD <3 <3 '~'

[Adamgreen 1,129]

All of the older girls in my school said I'm a cute boy with marshmallow cheek. So, no. But kinda yes

[1111 1,284]

I'm not hideous I guess i'm a bit under average but not the man equivalent of pretty.

[Lunar Echo 10,335]

I think people don't like the look of me so much they'd rather I die.

[Magic Note 2,748]

I can admit I'm petty myself, and being grumpy in general hasn't helped. I worry about small things all of the time, such as worrying about "bad" news during dentist/doctor appointments.

I don't really feel that useful so I'll guess I do feel petty, even though I would like to have a better vision of myself but I simply can't

[MLPFanatic34 3,234]

I'm not a petty person or I at least try not to be petty.

[Jaxsie (Inactive) 1,343]

No, I wouldn't consider myself to be a petty person by nature. I think everyone has moments where we stress over small things. But for me, it doesn't present itself to be an ingrained trait in my personality.

[EpicEnergy 23,218]

I don't know, I don't like throwing petty parties though.

I don't know actually. Sometimes I look at mirror and think "hey, I look pretty nice" and sometimes I look at mirror and see that I'm ugly (a year ago for a few days I was seriously thinking that I'm a freak because I had spotted a few imperfections on my face at once)

Upd: yeah, I've read petty as pretty

Yup, I always scream or cry about stuff like a 2-year-old. Usually it’s about homework 

[Rainbow Cloud 17,959]

Not really, I'm fairly laid back and will let a lot of things go unless it's something big or serious.

[TBD 17,254]

Well I do believe that I’m not really important or whatever I do would matter much but I don’t really care because it’s just all the same to me if I make an importance or not.

[Sovereign Leader Rarity 12,006]

I try not to be, but when confronted, fairly or not, I can turn into a real jerk.

[Astralshy 26,581]

I don't think I have ever been a petty person

[Splashee 28,563]

Not at all. I have always wanted to become something more.

[ZiggWheelsManning 10,241]

Don't think there's been my history as petty, or even of fussing attitudes thereof.  

[Dreambiscuit 9,691]

Sometimes, yeah. I can be petty about things. I try not to be, but if I’m tired, stressed or just happen to be in a certain mindset at any given time, I can get fairly ridiculous about things. I don’t always see things with a clear perspective and when that happens, I can act like an absolute child. Then again, at other times I can be completely mature and focused about the exact same things. So it’s a matter of circumstances I guess.    

[Tao 7,728]

Hmmmm. I think we all are petty at one time or another. It mostly comes down to how people treat me. If you have broken my trust or hurt someone I care for, then that side of me will come out a bit more.
