What is your one flaw?
What is your one flaw that sticks out more than others you may have?
Mine would have to be, I get over excited too easily. When I know something is wrong and I want other people to know about it I'll start to get really emotional and flip out over it. But I usualy know what I am talking about and put out a lot of good points... but I over react. So, how about you? |

Just one?
I'm extremely competitive. We were flying back from Utah on Southwest Airlines and to pass the time the flight attendants had us play a game to see who could come up with the most words made from the letters in "Southwest." I had like 93 words and I lost by 1 because they disqualified "sot" and "ethos," which are perfectly legitimate words that were not in their vocabulary. I was pissed the rest of the flight. I didn't really care about the stupid prize (probably drink coupons or something), I wanted to WIN! Still makes me mad. Hmph.

My worst flaw overall would have to be jealousy. I get extremely jealous of other women either with my boyfriend especially. But also I get jealous of women being more attractive than me, or being better than me at something. I definently work really hard at overcoming this, cause its not any fun!

I think my biggest flaw at the moment is jealousy. My bf and I have a pretty open relationship and I am usually very sure of myself and the strength of our relationship. But recently, I've put on a few pounds, gotten pretty pasty (you know, the computer glow) and I just don't feel as confident.
I also have PD (panic disorder), so I have an incredible ability to make up scenarios in my head if I get stuck on a negative thought. Over-analyzing, I suppose. But, yeah...I'm working on it and we've talked it over and hopefully this will become one of the lesser flaws soon.

I am much too straight forward and direct -- to the point of sometimes insulting people when I don't mean to. The good news is no one ever has to guess where they stand with me and I don't play games.

Apparently I'm not the only one who thinks that my biggest flaw is insecurity. Insecurity causes so much trouble in my life, I think everything is my fault, that everyone is always mad at me, etc. I'm working on it, though.

procrastination is a big problem for me... no matter how hard I try, If I'm not in the mood to do something it just doesnt get done.

I talk to much. There are plenty more and my best friend could point out lots of them but that one is what I think is the worst. I could talk non stop if you let me.

procrastination is my flaw...i go out of my way to put things off...and that has gotten me into tons of trouble...i am also very blunt about things...but, i don't consider that a flaw...there are way too many people not saying what they mean and miscommunication leads to problems

I think my one flaw is that I don't express my feelings as well as I should. I am always afraid of hurting someones feelings, so I say what I think they want me to say instead of what I really mean.
So I get taken advantage a lot because of that.

The way I feel about how I look often determines my mood for the day... If I'm comfortable w/myself and I think I look good then I'm happy, otherwise I'm a lil too insecure... like if my hair didn't turn out right or if I don't really like my outfit...
I know it may sound stupid but unfortunately that would prob be my biggest flaw... but I'm working on it ; )

Insecurity, I can take one minor flaw or incident and amplify it a million times, I hate it

good question!
I think I try to adapt to much to people, so I’m forgetting who I am and what I want… I’m working on it now, it costs to much energy constantly trying to figure out what somebody else wants from you. But trying to solve this isn’t easy too…

My biggest flaw is that I'm so damn anti-confrontational that I tend to let people walk all over me and treat me badly and I do nothing about it because i hate to be in arguments. Maybe this stems from insecurity........hmmmm.....

a good part of me is thinking that this thread is evil because it kinda sucks to think about your flaws and i think too many people do that too much already
but another part of me thinks that i can't pick which flaw to choose....so i'm a bit torn i was going to check out this thread beofre but put it off, so i guess maybe procrastination...? although another big one would be that i talk too much. (as you may notice when i post). i'll pretend that it's charming or something and be proud of it i guess.

I think I have a couple...
They kinda tie-in together, but yeah- I'm really really emotional. I'm like a rollercoaster. Plus, I have VERY low self-esteem. There is never a day that I am satisfied with my body or my soul. Sad sad sad. But that is the flaw of my brain. ::sigh:: Oh, and the whole trust factor. Last edited by la petite moi; 12-27-2003 at 02:35 AM.. |
