Personal Flaws About Yourself?

[vampireponyprince 184]

I tend to be headstrong and impulsive at times

also shyness is a huge draw back as well as the fact that im an introvert and not too happy about socializing with new people in real life.

[Kiri 7,290]

Here are a few of my major flaws:

 

• Indecisive
• Afraid of failure 
• I sometimes set unreasonable expectations on myself

[DND 2,355]

• I get pretty bad performance anxiety episodes

I procrastinate too much

I overthink what other's perceptions may be and get anxious or overly cautious over it

I'm a self perfectionist: my low self esteem and personal improvement hits me like a ton of bricks

I'm not loud, I don't really ever scream- I don't speak up a lot out of performance fear

You gang up on me, don't count on me backing down- now if your squad does consider me doormat

Math at an early age was something I was never fully introduced too- we moved too much during my early primary school years and thus it took a toll; math isn't an averagely proficient skill of mine unfortunately (learning in school was never a hard experience otherwise)

Overly fluctuating interests and perceptions

[baltosaa 86]

I tend to be pretty cynical and pessimistic about things.

 

I'm extremely picky about things.

 

When sharing my own thoughts/opinions, I can come across as mean when I don't intend to. (But it's only bad if I'm not intending to sound that way. If I'm intending to sound that way, then I don't mind at all.)

 

I have anxiety. Nuff' said.

[Axel 1,059]

Aight let's do this. 

- I don't trust people too often.

- A girl I think is pretty I really want to talk to but never can due to being socially awkward.

- I dress like I'm from the hood way too often with a tank top Jordan's and basketball shorts. 

- I'm very introverted, as I prefer to sit alone and eat even though my friends always motion for me to sit with them. 

- If I had the choice to go to a party or stay in my room and play video game, i'd choose the later. Hence why I don't have many real life friends, although people who see me for the first time think the opposite.

- Lastly, I have a huge anger problem. It's gotten better overtime, but whenever I get angry people get hurt.

[Odyssey 5,717]

Oh boy, I have too many personal flaws. Perhaps my most biggest flaws are the following:

• I suffer from a lack of self-confidence. It's worth mentioning that I used to be really confident in my abilities to do things, but I began to have doubts in these abilities as I got older.
• And on that note, I am also a very cynical person. Not overly cynical, but it's enough to make me the grump I am today, haha.
• I get angry very quickly. I don't ever show it on the Internet, however, because that's silly. Thankfully enough, I am beginning to improve on my temper with each new year.
• I have irrational fears. These fears in particular can set me off quickly.
• I am not that intelligent, almost to a point where I almost got kicked out of school because of bad grades and getting distracted by things I shouldn't be doing.
• I do a lot of dreaming where I wish I could get a nice job/house/car/etc., but I never devote my time into achieving any of that stuff.

[Invincible 2,091]

I have a very powerful, self-destructive emotional energy. I have taught myself to deaden my nerves and emotions and to become emotionally detached from most things. It works well; i am able to see the world with greater clarity and rationale. 

 

Lately in the past several months though, I feel like iv'e been taking it too far because i can't feel empathy towards most people anymore (even family and friends). I just take everything too easily and feel like iv'e become too indifferent to other people's pain and emotions.

 

This troubles me as i always strive to understand people, but lately iv'e been just distancing them away.

[EverEverOn 346]

I tend to tell other people that not everything is about them, yet sometimes I'll act like the world revolves around me. I'm working hard on it, though.

[Socrates 43]

I have a horrible work ethic.

I am sometimes stupidly egoistic.

I am socially retarded.

I am merciless to sophists.

[~Chaos~ 3,967]

- I have lots of anxiety.

 

- Quite sensitive to confrontations, just sensitive in general.

 

- I automatically think I'll fail at things (Like a job for example) So it's hard to even try it in the first place.

 

- 90% of the time I have very low motivation to improve myself and my abilities.

 

- Not great at being social.

 

- If I think I've done something stupid I'll think about it way more than I should, for a long time after.

 

- Bad at making decisions quickly.

 

- I think I'm not smart, which isn't really true but I sure like to tell myself I'm not.

 

It's nice to let that all out actually.

[SpeedyPride 11]

As I established in a previous topic, I have Asperger's Syndrome, and it affects me in ways I would never have thought possible earlier in my life. Medication helps a little bit but overall here's the hierarchy of my personal flaws.

 

• I have a negative outlook on myself because of the fact I've made mistakes in the past and somehow just can't seem to shake them off and move on.
• I fear the worst out of everything, sometimes for no reason at all. Sometimes I'll think someone's mad at me, sometimes I'll think I'm driving someone nuts, etc.
• I have various anxiety problems.
• Depression. Lots of it.
• When something goes horribly wrong, or I make a mistake, I tend to beat myself up about it when it really isn't necessary.
• Sometimes I can get angry over the smallest things and then I get enraged, causing me to say things I don't really mean or things that slip out by accident.
• Sometimes I fear meeting new people in person due to what they'll think of me.

Those are the main ones, but good news is for the ones that seem bad I am working to fix those. ^^'

[ARagY 1,152]

• I'm extremely insecure in regards to my identity

I don't have a strong resolve for anything, and anyone can end up breaking a dream of mine

I argue with myself non-stop. Either out of doing something or into doing it usually. 

I haven't bothered to learn proper English grammar

I misattribute emotions to the wrong perceptions

I don't have an easy time forgiving

If someone betrays me, it will stick with me forever

If someone specifically sets out to hurt me, it will never leave my mind

I don't sleep enough, reaching the late hours of the night before lying down in bed

I don't eat enough, some days I skip it entirely

I quit most of the things that made me happy

I'm frustrated with my progress in the interests I do maintain

My grades are slipping

My skill in games is slipping

I close up and don't trust many people

I don't actively seek friends or much of a social life

I feel and see the past controlling the present and future

Emotionally clingy

Feel like giving up against fighting depression as I see very little gains (and even losses) in the things that keep me going

I overthink every day in every way. 

I am protective of those I love to the point of harming them in the process of trying to help

I struggle with the concept of having to compete when I really don't want to

I can't think of any creative reason for why I'm a better candidate for a job than another unless I lie about it, and I feel unless I say I was kicked out of the Composition International de Musique there is no chance in hell I will stand out, and standing out often ends badly anyway

I want to avoid being the centre of attention until I will simply stop attending events if it means being stared at. I hate even turning my test in in a large class as I feel a spotlight come on me when the others are looking at my direction

I drink too much water

My greatest motivation is a bad, faulty plan for the future with a certain someone

I feel my faith constantly wavering in the stability of my country, it's sphere of influence, and it's leaders

My greatest fears are things I cannot control or have no say in at the moment

I hold a permanent negative outlook towards certain groups of people due to bad experiences in the past

I am good at being frugal with my money, but it always manages to escape me when my dues back me in a corner usually to something unexpected

I put off drawing for so long and now I dropped my pen in water and may have to buy a new one, which is 2 weeks of plasma donation to pay for

I don't like telling my friends how I feel because I don't want them to be annoyed or worried 

I don't like involving my two worlds for fear of a collapse of both, and so I became paranoid about everything and will not ever disclose personal details on the web again, after seeing what is available for public knowledge already

I had put too much confidence in classmates to want to learn instead of be told what to do and have come off as a tryhard who wants to show off their smarts when all I wanted to do was help others, which is why I started to become a tutor

I quit that ambition after realising there are very few times I've ever helped anyone, and it is irresponsible to put the academic future of someone into my hands

I'm prone to anger/sadness when I can't do as well as before

I play games too much

When I do play games, I don't usually take into consideration skill differences, and I have gotten banned in the past for doing too well on servers of less-'skilled' players

For two years I've said I was going to work on my book and not a chapter I've developed, and no excuse even if I am slowly building lore

I actively avoid inspiration from other writers to avoid copying them

It's very easy to lose sense of direction after a single day of work

I cannot remember most people's names unless they are close to me or famous

I cannot remember the names of locations unless they are important and close to me or famous

Navigationally, I rely entirely on relational location to get to places

When people express interest in me I mostly don't act as nice in return, but cautiously

I spend too much time on the Internet

I never learned how to be 'cool' in the "real world"

I'm afraid of life

I'm afraid of worms

I'm afraid of death

I'm afraid of what's after

[Kyoshi Frost Wolf 41,689]

Ah, self criticism. I do this a lot. A. Lot. 

 

• I have a lot of self hatred issues
• I compare myself with others too much 
• I think I am inferior to others
• I have little confidence in anything I do
• I give up on doing certain things kinda easily
• I don't think anything I make is good
• I have horrendous social skills
• I get stressed incredibly easy
• I am scared of a lot of things
• I don't handle criticism well thanks to my lack of confidence

The list goes on. I am like a blender filled with flaws. 

[Shadow Beam 1,179]

Some self critique could be a good exercise.

 

• First and foremost, I've acknowledged that my main malfunction is always feeling dread about how others feel about me.
  • I'll try my very best in personal tasks like studying, disregarding success and suffering from failure.
  • It doesn't matter how nice people acts, I'll always have the thought that there's a tint of pity.
  • I prefer to avoid entering into new groups because I always foresee some negative consequence being suffered by me or them.
• I always play safe due to how bitterly failure affects me, I rarely attempt anything new due to insecurity of many facets. There's few exceptions.
• I longe for the impossible, and feel shame on myself for even considering it.
• Going out all by myself stirs this double feeling of peace and regret. Not being with anybody gives me peace, but after some time I feel like I should be with someone.
• I attempt to write and preach stupidity that I label as intellectual despite being a 17 year old kiddo who hasn't enjoyed the time that was supposed to be the upmost blissful of his life.
• Introspection is woefully easy for me to accomplish, and I almost always batter myself internally because I know why and what I feel, and when I am in the wrong.
• Anything of my making will clasify as utter garbage on my eyes, and any kind words from the outside will be politely dismissed.
• The bad mood of others incide on me deeply.
• Despite usually reassuring that I try to understand everything in an objective and rational manner, I'm sensitive in many aspects and my spirit will plummet with ease against certain situations.
• I consider myself as a coward on the inner picture.
• Even though I do find kind words as words of pity, I can easily be swayed in many ways by personalities to the point of considering them closer than people I actually see during my life. And usually, this is people that I'll certainly never get to meet.
• I tend to disdain some people's thoughts and actions whilst being able to understand them -or feel like I do understand them- , subsequently morphing into inner struggles.
• I suffer from the loneliness I periodically enclose myself in, and feel disdain for that.
• In spite of not having reached even a fourth of my life span, I'll usually see myself in the future as a grump who took the wrong decisions.  
• It pains me to be dishonest, and it sometimes creates conflict with my fear to lose those whom I hold dear.
• Lastly, I thoroughly detest myself for allowing trivialities to damper my sanity at such a young age because I know that there's millions of people that went through literal hell; younger and less fortunate than me.

 

Well, I suppose that's all.

[Comic Sans 401]

I can be very naive sometimes. I also have a short fuse. I'm shy and find it hard to talk to people a lot of the time. Sometimes I talk too much. I can sometimes be a bit of a sadist, yet at the same time, I enjoy helping people, so that's a bit of a conflicting one. I'm lazy, unmotivated and all around crap. xD

[Willow 1,008]

My crippling social anxiety is one of my hugest flaws, I think.

[Your Nightly Spectre 1,061]

My many problems that make my life to be shit right now, something I'd need to write in Life Advice sometime, but it is so complicated, complex and hard to explain that I never bothered. ^^ 

[PinkieatHeart 208]

I've let myself become kind of anti-social. I'm also really really mean to myself. I constantly telling myself how awful I am. I really need to not do that, cuz at this point, it doesn't even hurt. I just automatically take it as unfortunate truth.

[ztrash 62]

A lot of people on here have social anxiety, from what i've read here. Ya'll can send me message or something, if you ever feel like talking to someone. (P.S. I know this isn't a direct response to the post topic)

[JeyWiz 1,097]

• I sometimes get offended when given advice.

I am super lazy.

I don't study for tests.

My grades haven't improved.

I should have started digital art YEARS ago. Because I haven't, I'm not the best anymore.

I sometimes criticise others for doing something I did myself.

I swear too much.

I am too fussy about my appearance.

I break promises.

I sometimes envy for little things.

I sometimes can't respect opinions.

I tell lies just to make things sound better.

I hide secrets a lot.

I get bored easily.

[kanwe yest 157]

• I don't study

• I dunno shiznit about math

• if u dont wash ur hands dont go near me

• im lazy

• i have anxiety

[Jaxsie (Inactive) 1,343]

- I can't cope with a lot of stress. I crumble under the weight if it's not remedied.

- I'm afraid of failure. It's a struggle to overcome my fear and challenge myself to greater heights because of my fear of falling.

- I don't like to admit when I'm wrong.

- I have horrible sleeping habits. Case in point, I'm writing this at 2 am.

- I have horrible eating habits. It's not uncommon for me to go a whole day having eaten nothing but a banana, lol.

- I have a bad habit of not finishing what I start. I have so many unfinished stories it's ridiculous.

- I become intimidated by my own skills. That may sound crazy. But for example, I let my cousin read a part of a story I started and he said he loved it. I want to finish it for him, but I'm afraid that my work won't live up to what he thought was already good. Deep down I wonder, Will I be able to write on the same caliber?

- I have goals, but I struggle with lack of diligence to reach them.

- I'm a perfectionist and can be self critical

- I'm inwardly a sore loser. I politely bow out of Smash Bros. because I just don't want to play anymore -- that's all, lol.

 

It actually feels good to write this out. Now I know what I need to work on -- a lot, haha Just gotta take it one step at a time.

[Carl Poppa 464]

I'm very naïve and have a tendency to be more trusting than I should be.

I can't handle stress, and social situations make awkward and stressed out unless I'm with people I already trust. Because of this, I can't do fast food/retail/customer service. (Which means I'm in trouble.)

I'm way too susceptible to emotions and can really go off on people, sometimes when they don't deserve it.

I'm extremely submissive and tend to just let people I care about walk all over me... as such when I stand up for myself, people tend to use it to make me seem like a bad person... I've only recently stopped letting this affect my self-esteem.

When I don't know how to respond to someone (which is often) I simply don't respond at all.

I have a tendency to forget to thank people for helping me.

I'm always second guessing myself, probably in part because I misunderstand so many situations that have led to me making a fool of myself.

 

And my biggest flaw... well that's my fixation on attaining a kind of love that may not exist.

[Envy 6,182]

Psh... I pretty much am a flaw.

 

I have social anxiety through the roof, on top of being socially inept.

I have general anxiety through the roof.

I'm super clingy and annoying.

I have a short-temper.

I have no confidence in my abilities, and am thus unable to show any bit of the ability I may have. I do not trust myself.

I have an attention disorder, which I've realized is probably making music impossible for me.

I'm over-dramatic.

I end up stirring up drama, and don't always feel bad about it, because it keeps things from being boring.

I'm stubborn but flimsy at the same time.

I have no patience whatsoever.

I'm very materialistic.

 

I'm pretty sure it doesn't stop there. =P

[n0body555 334]

Anxiety

Acne which just makes it worse...  just annoying now because i've been trying to treat it for a long time

stressed a lot of the time

Introverted

I will go on and on about my past which for some reason I cannot get over.

My mood is all over the place. Will be happy, motivated one day. some other day without a word I'll be highly depressed and will not talk. just an example. you get it...

and I'm really desperate for friends, and someone to really be with.
