Mine is that I'm very stubborn. Not exactly in the fact that I have to have my own way. But once a train of thought is determined, it can't be shook or it takes a long, long time to shake it off.
What are your character flaws?
- Thread starter femmenoire
- Start date
My temper. Though slow to anger, when I reach that breaking point it's bad for everyone. I punched a hole through a door once I was so pissed...then my father promptly beat my ass.
Being stubborn and cynical about many things.
Being stubborn and cynical about many things.
People have told me that I have a very laidback Lackadaisical attitude. They say it's like I don't care, like everything to me is "blah". It's not that, I just don't let things bother me (or do my best to try not to ). I let alot of things roll off my shoulders.
Women that I have dated HATE that about me, as well as my mother who also HATES that about me...oh well can't please everybody.

Selfish/selflessness.
Sarcasm, which I got from my parents.
Polarization, I love it, or I hate, I'm for it, or against it. Initially I don't usually have middle ground over anything.
Completely insouciant towards some people, and their situations.

Are you an only child?
I have always steered away from dating men who are only children. They seem to lack the ability to share.
And I've found it's the same way for women who are only children.
are you a libra? this is the exact same thing i was going to post and seems to be a common libra trait.
you only punched one hole? shit i can't tell you how many for me. just punched another one last night. thru the drywall.
besides the temper i can be very indecisive and then procrastinate until i can figure out what the fuck i am doing.
i am also too fucking nice.
I care too much at times. Ive given strangers a coat of my back, I helped a man having a seizure on the street bleeding keep warm with a extremely expensive leather and cashmere coat. I can go on for days, but I just hate to see people in pain.
But dont cross me...
But dont cross me...
I am a cancer, gotta run shit. I am the oldest of 4, and I took care of my brothers and sisters. I love people "too hard", meaning when I tell people about how they can do better in something, it comes off like I'm judging them, but I'm not. I have the tendency to cut you off, especially if you you hurt a nigga feelings. I won't come out and say you hurt me, I just shutdown our relationship. I am very dominent in my personality.
That me...Nonchalant!!!
I'm a Cancer actually; my sister is a Libra. We both explode when we get to a certain point, but she doesn't assault houseware...to my knowledge. After my father rained on me and told me to control my temper, I wised up and started punching the bed. The irony here is that we both inherited the trait from him. He's an Aries.
i don't know where i inherited the trait from but i have smashed up alot of shit! i am libra but i got moon in cancer, cancer rising and a few other cancer things.
Pardon me, you did say flaws (plural):
I guess u can tie laidback with procrastinating...if i'm not motivated, it ain't happing right away. I'm ALWAYS late, I usually wait till the last minute.
I'm horrible at calling people back. From my friends to my own family they all have the same beef with me when it comes to that.
I'm too nice to the point where it may seem i'm naive, so people try to take advantage of that until I flip, once I reach that boiling point. Then when it that happens people have the gall to be shock and appauld...yo, I gave u fair warning. I know women do that because of my laidback nature...several of them have told me.

We must be related because you basically spelled out what I left out of my first post. I wasn't going to get that detailed, but I had to C/S this
Got cussed out today because my mother thinks I'm screening her calls.
Damn G, me & you r the same mofo!
thats it right there
My girl has this flaw wowwwwwwww. Fights for days.
iam way to rational and too nice. I have to learn to just step out the box and be crazy every once in a while. And just say no to people. I think it's a degree a reason why iam single now, other then the fact that nobodys perfect and when u love somebody u everything thats not perfect about them.
oh well....
oh well....

Tell the truth, you were.
small world you never know.We could be twins....my older brothers did tell me my momma found me at her front door.
Wow Umm.
I can be very hard on myself.
I am stubborn like you femme not in having my own way, but once I have made a decision to do something it's very hard to sway me.
I often NEED to have the last word.
I can be overly sensitive
and Overly sarcastic to the point I've some people's feelings.
Oh and it's hard for me to refrain from saying what I really feel is necessary...in other words I find it hard to hold my tongue.

I'M an only child but i dont mind sharing (just not my man
) my character flaw is that i demand time from people. i dont need all eyes on me but i need alot of attention here and there
You sound just like my roomie, who's also a Libra. She can't make up her mind for shit, and it drives me nuts. Twenty minutes to pick out mascara.
Just like you and Ari, my temper can be the worst. I'm the type that always tries to avoid confrontation and spare feelings, so I lay low and let stuff build. Then something will trigger me, and I go OFF. I mean damn near black out. Almost put my older sis' head through a closet door. My family are the only ones to get me to that point.
Libras and Aquarians are almost too alike, I swear.

Case in point!
I'm a Cancer too. I'm exactly this way. Not so much gotta run shit but I am very uncomfortable letting someone run MY shit...I like to think of myself as a benevolent dictator LOL
I also have that calm Cancerian nature some take for weakness, which when crossed goes nuclear. I've had to work on that.
Exactly, so my new shit is to make sure they understand from jump not to take kindness for weakness, and to be much quicker in catching the red flag and cutting their triflin asses off.
I also procrastinate. I'm not good at follow-up. I'm easily distracted. I like to argue but in a debate sense not a "start arguments for no reason" sense. I can be too generous sometimes. I could stand to manage time better and be more disciplined. Typical struggles of a creatively-oriented person.
I'm very careful as to whether or not I SAY, I'm calling you back.
I believe on a subconscious level, returning phone calls that you say you will, is the number one contributer to trust building in any relationship, especially in business.
But I can be real selfish on the phone, your going to talk to me, when I FEEL like talking. Usually after 9, after I've settled everything I want to do.
But hey, if you don't say, " I'll call you back " fuck it.
I thought further on this comment of yours . . .
1. I am a very kind and giving person! You might not think so, I don't why!
2. You'll never see an only child in someone's plate, since your talking about sharing. Think about it, siblings, and person who grew up with siblings, their nose is always in your plate.
Did you get more?
You got more potatoes than me!
Why you always drinking up all the juice!?
Not only is that a great analogy, tell me brothers and sisters, brothers, and brothers, etc, DON'T sit an look at each other's plate!
I could say, I find persons who grew up with siblings to be attention whores because the distribution of love was amongst multiple people, and let's not get into the hidden under the skin, year's subscription of ISSUES if there was a FAVORITE, and YOU were NOT IT . . . . Hell, and especially if you WERE THE FAVORITE!
Selfish is as selfish does. There can be no generalization made to identify certain determining factors as to WHY.
None of it has to do with the price of tea in China.
Weve had this convo before, I respect your opinion, but we dont lack the ability to share, we just dont have to. I grew up with everything and I dont want it any other way in a relationship because I wont be happy. So yeah Im a selfish, spoiled, arrogant brat and Im proud of it goddamnit. That doesnt mean I, or other only children dont have hearts. I have no problem sharing... When it works in my favor, but unless you know what Im thinking, Im just a nice guy right, so who cares that Im thinking about what you can do for me down the line
I do notice that most of the "relationship people" are people who had siblings. I guess they could never make the adjustment of being alone.
I'm also a cancer, and I have broken my right hand punching a door (and an upright ping pong table, and many a wall )because I was pissed. I have a quick fuse, but it has gotten a little better with age.

I guess there is truth to astrology because that describes me to a T...
I will also admit that I can be a little jealous and a lotta stubborn...
I'm also extremely sarcastic....
Damn, i'm flawed...
This is exactly me.. Only child, Leo w/Virgo Rising..
I was recently told by one of my exes that I am a horrible person and she may be right.
I run hot and cold with a lot of things. And I am like a light switch in that regard. One second I'm all about something next time you see me it's completely opposite.
People say I am too mellow. People love it until they get in deep with me and then they just get annoyed that I don't get excited over things.
I am an opportunist and will use people and do whatever I have to do to get what I want/need.
I am also brutally honest and not sensitive at all and can't deal with overly sensitive people (I want to kick them down stairs)
I am sure their is a whole lot more ask cleo_j she has a laundry list for me . . . BTW I'm a Sagittarius my birthday is tomorrow 12/1
I am the oldest of a lot of children and to this day the only person i let eat off of my plate and me off of theirs is my closest brother. I don't play that with anybody else.

That's me- I think we were separated at birth Dale.
Add:
I have too much pride and I will do almost anything to avoid looking vulnerable- which leads me to my other character flaw- I take things to heart too much.
Fear of failure.
Vanity- not in a have to wear make-up and heels way (I'm more the natural look type) but still vanity.
I'm a Leo btw.

You know I love our convos but I was raised with 5 siblings. When I was young I didn't always like to share but I am so grateful that my parents taught us sharing. I am a very giving person, and actually to a point where it could be considered a flaw. Selfishness is a trait that I not only cannot stand, but I won't subject myself to be around those kinds of individuals anymore.
My only other flaw is that I am incredibly hard on myself, like Miss Star Kitty mentioned.
And I'm a procrastinator. But the reason why is because when I finally get around to doing whatever I'm going to do, I put 200% into it...leaving me exhausted.
Same here. Damn, astrology is ILL
Damn bruh, I could've asked you to post my answers because this is so close to me that it isn't even funny...
I'm an only child, but I'm not selfish, honest! I do think I'm one of the exceptions to the rule cause my parents didn't beleive in spoiling.
My flaws: I'm too damn niave sometimes... can't hold a grudge for long... Oh and I have a bad habit of not understanding why everyone can't see things the same way that I do.
I will refrain from answering this question.
femm i luv ya mama but that is a whole lot of bull****. i have a sister , but was raised as an only child and one of the things all my friends and even a lot of women i have had relationships with in the past say is wrong with me, is that i am too nice and too giving. i always hear people say stuff about only children and its not true. its about how you are raised , not how many brothers and sisters you have.
