    After talking with my bestest friend today. I have this pattern of talking to someone or seeing someone everyday & then i just fall off the face of the earth for a few weeks. Im usually gathering my thought. keeping myself company. basically me alone time,being a loner for a few weeks. This is a bad habit & is a major friend flaw on my part. Question to my MFP friends: What would be Your flaw as a friend??

    I do the exact same thing! But it works out well because my best friend does the same thing lol

    I would say my flaw is that I forget everyones bday

    I get close and then push away. Girls always hurt me....Now, guy friends, are for life! No gossip, no jealously, no back-biting!

    I'm much to cool for all my friends so I avoid them like the cootie-infested plague-carrying mongrels that they are.

    (In reality I'm just an *kitten* more often than not)

    I can be kind of moody and my feelings get hurt really easily. I am also kind of bad at returning phone calls...

    Rape. It always ends in rape.

    I assume this is a joke and I don't want to sound like an *sshole, but, as a father of 3 girls, I have to say I find this offensive.

    I think Macaulay Culkin might tell you it's not just limited to girls...

    Yeah I don't like it either. Not funny, not something to joke about at all.

    evidently I'm self centered

    but honestly most women are..IMO...I have a big family, work full time, and work out alot, and spend too much time on mfp...yes I dont have alot of spare time...yes I am focused on ME.

    My flaw is I CARE too much. When one of my friends are hurt I feel hurt. An if they tell me what someone has done to them and they make the choice to go back to that person or talk back to them I tend to not let them make there own choice and give too much of my thoughts. Overall I think I am a good freind but I need to realize people are going to do what they wanna do.

    I'm always in a survival mode. Friend told me he's going to buy a new place since he's newly married rather than his current living situation at his mothers and my mind immediately went towards how he's gonna make it and started asking him questions how he's going to afford it and stuff.

    My Flaw is I am very vocal and strong...sometimes it comes across harsh and my friends tell me that at times but they really know my heart...So maybe I should work on being more soft spoken.....

    Seriously? Why do people need to know my flaws (not that I have any that I'll confess to). Why not ask me what makes me one of the most amazing friends you could ever have. I think that would be a lot more interesting.

    I'm really bad at calling people or returning texts and calls.

    That I'm cheap as hell and if I go out with friends I'm always looking for a way to pay less.

    Exactly the same problem here! My family and friends call to check if I died or something. LOL

    I sometimes screen my calls if I don't feel like talking to certain friends. Bad I know. Also I am hard to get a hold of on my cell as I either have it low or I forget it at home.

    I think my biggest "friend flaw" is I'm not very sympathetic. I expect perfection from myself and although I know others can't be held to my high expectations, sympathy doesn't come naturally for me. Comes from a totally dysfunctional childhood! :laugh: (nervously)

    My flaw is I"m almost too caring...I don't always know when to back off and give friends their space. Coincidentally, I have no problem making sure I get my space lol

    I fall off the face of the Earth too. I get so wrapped up in my own life, I tend to forget that other people have crap going on too.

    Much like OP, there are times where I prefer to keep to myself, especially during times of stress or feeling down. I'm not the type to really air my laundry too much or really talk about negative things. I prefer to make jokes and act a fool. I also admit that I just cannot maintain a friendship with someone who's constantly pissing and moaning and "poor me". I just can't take all the negativity.

    My friend flaw:indifferent: : What's a flaw:huh: ? I don't have those :noway: :tongue:

    But seriously I guess I can be standoffish sometimes. This is mainly to new people I've met, not ones I know really well. I can do chit-chat, but you have to really get to know me and have real conversations for me to open up.

    I'd suppose my biggest flaw is not trusting my friends. It's hard to be a good friend when you're always second-guessing their motives!

    I would have to say this^^^ is my main flaw and I am sure I have others but not sure if they are flaws or just me being me. I totally understand my "BESTIE" We been friends for too long to know how things go!! :)

    I am pretty sure that based on this post, we can figure out your flaw on our own. Thanks for playing!

    I am horrible about making plans. Love seeing my friends, but never initiate. Requires my friends to be the Julie McCoy (yeah - dated reference) :)
