Your worse personality trait(s)

fatfrost

I can be a whiny little ***** when I don't get my way.

Oh my gosh. My personality has been described as "intimidating" repeatedly. I keep thinking "do I just have zero self awareness or I deal with a bunch of wussies???"....

They are wussies...

I recently had to have a meeting with some "colleagues" which was mediated by a "superior" due to this labeling, among other things. We were supposed to try to work together to become a "team". After listening to them roll out a litany of "mean" things I had done or said in their minds (including not saying "good morning" when I walk by their desk...), and having them say that I had "yelled" at them...I finally had enough and bluntly asked "have I EVER raised my voice at you?" NO. "have I ever called you incompetent, lazy, unprofessional, or ANY other personal attack?" NO. "So basically, I 'LOOK or SOUND' irritated with the fact that we are in a high stress situation and you are not getting your job done, when I ask for something to be done?" Silence...........

I then said "I think you guys need to put your big girl panties on..." The superior agreed. Meeting was over. Haven't had a complaint since....

My filter has improved as I've aged. I don't get called in for "the talk" very often. But when I'll ask why someone didn't come to me with a request, I get told that I have an intimidating personality. I apparently scare people... I don't get it. I always use my inside voice and depending on the audience, try to use words they don't have to look up in the dictionary. I can only dumb stuff down so much folks. Read a book. Learn a few words with more than two syllables... Just sayin'....

I wear my emotions on my sleeve.. Its very frustrating..

Jerrypeoples

it seems like there are a lot of similar folks


trust is a big one for me. while i have many people whom id call friend theres only a very small number who know much about my inner thoughts and even less who know the REAL inner thoughts

i also self depreciate too much and it annoys people but i also believe if you cant laugh at yourself then you need to find someone smaller and weaker and laugh at them

i can also laugh at any situation. ANY.

im very good at not letting emotions dictate my decision making

That sounds like a challenge, laugh at ANY situation?

we were pallbearers at my grandmothers funeral and started walking down the steps with casket in hand. we all felt grandma slide from the bottom of the casket till her head hit the top.

i blurted out...Sorry Gram as all us grandsons burst out laughing

cupcakes_and_cardio

Impatient, set myself to high of standards, over-emotional, emotional eater (well, used to be, but working on that), too anxious and I've been told people are intimidated by me because I don't talk much?....I'M A TRAIN WRECK! lol

ruth3698

I'm way too trusting and can't argue without crying lol. I hate that!

fuzzball01

I take everything to heart and if you get on my bad side...............

122ish

I tend to lose my patience easily
I have no filter

chelseascounter

I have no patience.

emibrus1

I always try to make everyone happy even if it's at my own expense. I'm pretty much a self-made doormat.

Ed98043

So many bad personality traits...

I hate being rushed or being told to hurry up. Like, it makes me want to rip that person's head off and s%$t down their throat. Yet I myself am very impatient with people who are slow, or just slow-witted.

i dont have a filter either, whats wrong with that?

pseudomuffin

Low self esteem.
Words never come out of my mouth right--I'm eloquent in written word but sound like an idiot when I talk.
Always running late because I'm never ready to go on time.

footiechick82

OH and VERY impatient with ignorant people!!!!

catneon

Honestly I'm a cut-throat b!tch...but only if you deserve it!
Be nice to me I'll be nice too
and probably because of this I lack a bit of compassion....I've had to fire a lot of people in my life!

hOw2lozeAgiN10dAze

None. They're all good.

healthywtb

I interrupt people when they are talking.

Jerrypeoples

when in a verbal fight, if you say something mean that you know will intentionally hurt me (nothing to bad, but just to get at me) i go right for the throat. you cant even say that escalated quickly because quickly doesnt even begin to describe it

superwalrus417

I will always be too shy and awkward to approach people

jjscholar

I would say that my greatest personality flaw is the fact that I do not trust people very easily...

StinkyWinkies

I was gonna *say* "I expect people to be better than they are" which often leads people to believe I think I am better'n everyone else, when I don't...but decided it's really my misanthropy that's my "worst personality trait."

nickyfm

Sometimes I can be incredibly socially lazy. If an event requires too much effort to go to, ie i can't drive to it, i make an excuse not to go. Most times i would rather be on the internet than bother going out, lol

I have no patience for stupid people.

I also bite my nails. That's not really a 'personality trait', but i wish i didn't have the urge to!!

admittedly i am the same

sally_jeffswife

I'm somewhat shy until I know someone well. I have a hard time opening up when something is bothering me instead I try to calm myself down and deal with it until I feel the need to bring it up. I avoid any type of verbal arguments. I am impatient at times. Especially when driving I can be impatient.

JustAboutDelicious_wechanged

I'm very laid back, but I have a wicked temper if I think someone messed with me, my friends or family. I will tear a head off in about 2.2 seconds and then expect that person to thank me for doing it quickly. :explode:

I wear my heart on my sleeve.

whierd

I am arrogant, argumentative, and I find reasons to dislike most people. Usually because they are stupid.
