    my head is very hard and I am quick to lose my temper.

    it's weird seeing Hulk after i've been so into Celeb Apprentice this season.  no likey.

    I'm a yeller

    Oops - I forgot that one.  My H calls me a screecher, and it is the one thing he complains about.

    I am fat

    Any questions?

    Yes. Why is fat a character flaw?  Maybe it's just the result Of one for you.

    Soon to celebrate the day we met, even if the day before marks when we said goodbye.
  • I am quick to anger. I was just thinking about character flaws last night because I lost my *** last night. I appreciate how DH just let's me fly off the handle and doesn't say much. Maybe he knows better than to engage with me when I'm mad. He's a good man. :)

    Spill it, MLers.

    As I get older, I seriously cannot tell sometimes if I am just always taking the opposing view on almost everything b/c I'm obstinate and like to argue, or if because I really legitimately believe in it. I'm a pertinacious fool sometimes - probably emphasis on the fool.

    It's like I automatically have to launch into a, "Well, see, you didn't look at it like this..."  It annoys even me at times, so I can't imagine what my friends and DH think sometimes. : /

    Exactly this, but as I am a people pleaser (flaw nr 2), I get in trouble with myself, because people do not like flaw nr 1.

    Flaw nr 3 : worrier

    Flaw nr 4 : not expressing my dislikes and combined with flaws nr 2 and 3, ending up with my head exploding over arguments I have with people IN MY HEAD

    Before I get to nr 7893653499, I am going home (it is 7 p.m. here) and take my medication ...

    I was thinking flaws, not character flaws - my bad.

  • idk.  selfish?  bossy?  impatient? 

    there are so many.  i would be interested to know how my H or my friends answer this.  i can't really think of the one that really encompasses me.  like, i am bossy but only with H.  i am impatient, but only in certain situations.  i am selfish, but not with my friends. 

    soooo....idk.

  • i'm lazy and need a fire under my ass to get things done.

    i am selfish and withdrawn, even though i love people.  i want to talk to you, i just don't ever want you to ask anything of me, and if you do i will probably secretly resent you (because i'm lazy, see above) even though i'll do it (see below).

    i'm a perfectionist, but not in the my-closet-is-always-organized-and-i-am-early-for-every-deadline way.  in the "it has to be exactly like this or the entire world is completely, utterly, ruined and destroyed" way.  which leads to drama.  i'm also overly dramatic.

     

    ETA:  i asked my husband what my worst flaw is.  he says it's constant self-doubt.  i find this very interesting.  both that i asked him and that he answered something i hadn't expected.

    kiss it, nest.
  • They're all character flaws.  My first grade teacher said I had poor time management skills; she was right.  I am a slob, was not always.  
  • Vanity and pride are definitely mine. I also lack patience. I'm a work in progress!

  • I'm lazy, capricious, prone to clutter, utterly naive about people's intentions, prideful and egotistical.

  • I over analyze and over plan.

    Ive also been known to blow small issues completely out of proportion.

  • I'm a planner, and if things don't go to plan then I get really upset.  And I also have a really hard time playing things by ear. 

    I also have no backbone, and can't really say no to anything.

  • Is lateness a character flaw? Because that, without question, is my worst.

    I am a controlling perfectionist. I have to hold myself back from "correcting" my kids' artwork, ffs.

    I'm pretty obnoxious 95% of the time.  Its fairly amazing I have any friends.

    I'm fat, which is a big ML flaw, right?  :-)

    I am so inept at reading people and picking up social cues I feel like I'm one precarious step short of an Asperger's diagnosis.

    I make the fiance do MUCH more sh!t that I want to do that he doesn't than the other way around.

    It is impossible for me to mask it when I dislike someone.

    And we won't even get started on my thorough lack of any sense of work ethic, organization or good working habits. 

    Or my lack of a sense of proper house-keeping :-)

    Seriously, people. If your faith in humanity is destroyed because your parents told you there was a Santa Claus and as it turns out there is no Santa Claus, you are an ignorant, hypersensitive cry baby with absolutely zero perspective. - UnderwaterRhymes
  • I am SO easily distracted.

    I want people to see things the way I see them and have a hard time not trying to change them when they don't.

    I get easily irriitated when I spend too much time with the same person/people. This is why I try to have different circles of friend and also why I have a hard time with close/intimate relationships. I am really easy to get along with, as long as I have my "me"time, and don't feel smothered.

    I am late to EVERYTHING!

     I procrastinate a lot.

  • I'm a bossy, know-it-all, recalcitrant.

  • Anger relieves my social anxiety, which feels amazing, and that in turn makes it hard for me to want to calm down when I'm upset instead of taking it out on others.
  • I'm a lazy procrastinator. Most of the time it can come off as laid back (which i am) but I'm really just lazy,lol.

  • I'm an underachiever. I'm self absorbed. I'm bossy and controlling. I lack a filter. I talk too much.
