    I find humor in everything, sometimes inappropriately so.

    I have a terrible habit of reconciling things in my head and making decisions that seemingly come out of left field.

    I will probably never ever ask for help even if I need it.

    I compartmentalize so much inside my head that sometimes it feels like there are two versions of me.

    I obsess over things. Not creepy obsess, but nerdy pick-apart-every-effing-detail obsessing. Basically, living in my head... or so I've been told many times by people close to me. And then I lose interest.

    Impatient.

    Too hard on myself.

    Antisocial tendencies that I have to constantly work on to appear "normal" to friends & family around me.

    Whoa!

    you're me!

    I also really really really hate stupid people. To the point I fantasize about creating some sort of designer disease that would only target stupid....but then only 0.05% of the worlds population would be left.

    I feel comfortable talking about pretty much anything to even strangers...I feel like sometimes I can make people a little uncomfortable with the amount of information I give them, haha.

    Edit:
    Also...I giggle constantly.

    insecure, impatient and I have a huge issue if I feel like I'm being ignored, overly sensitive one minute and feisty the next.

    1. I'm a perfectionist which makes it hard for me to take time to relax. Even if I'm watching a movie...which rarely happens, I have to be doing something productive. I have my parents to "thank" for that. It's good but not good all the time. I'm always multitasking to the point of exhaustion.

    2. I'm shy.

    3. I think I'm too nice sometimes and give people the benefit of the doubt more than I should. I often ignore my own needs to please others. I want to be a sweet and nice person. It's a good quality, but I need to set boundaries so I'm not taken advantage of.

    4. Too independent.

    Working on all of the above. :)

    5. i have a chicken pox scar that i'd love to ERASE permanently! But... I can't :p

    Flaws, well
    1: I can be hot headed.
    2: I have a addictive personality.
    3: I tend to think of myself before others. (Not in a rude way, just not willing to give up mine for those who didn't earn it).
    4: Not sure if this is a flaw, I hold very narrow and strict moral views. (Those you help or help you must return, the favor or have the favor returned).
    5: I tend to put off things that should be more important, (health, my kids, responsibilities) "not always, but on occasion this happens". <

    Not sure I can think of many others.
    I tend to speak well, work hard, treat others with respect, ect..
    The only thing I can think of otherwise is that I could use improvement on my education. However, I wouldn't consider that a flaw.

    1. I let fear rule my life.

    2. I tend to focus on the negatives more than the positives in most situations.

    3. Too many times I allow others to determine what kind of mood I'm going to be in.

    4. I am not good at saving money.

    5. I am not as compassionate towards others as I should be.

    6. I spend too much time on Facebook. (And here...)

    I have a terrible temper. That's my worst flaw.

    I'm obsessive. *****y. I have no patience for closed minded, right-wing *kitten* (and I work for one of the biggest). I think I look pretty damn good, even when I dont. And I am pretty sure I am a special snowflake.

    1.) Don't trust people enough.

    2.) Not very emotional.

    I am way too nice to people (which is both a blessing and a curse).

    I am not judgemental enough (which is why I always fall for the wrong type of guy - so I've been told by close friends).

    I get taken advantage of all the time.

    1. I can be both stubborn and annoyingly accommodating/passive.

    2. I am a perfectionist & and can be a pretty bad procrastinator if I lack key information.

    3. My curse: I am an extrovert who is too insecure to meet people or approach strangers.
    . . I LOVE meaningful conversation with friends, etc.,
    . . but just the idea of small talk with a stranger makes me very uncomfortable.

    4. Conversely, I can be clingy, and I try to get too close too fast.
    . . This can lead to emails with the subject line "Things" :sad:

    5. I'm picky when it comes to women. I would be afraid to ask them out anyway, because of #3,
    . . and the fact that deep down I expect them to be just as picky as I am. I'm doomed.

    6. I'm often suspicious of people's intentions, and don't give them the benefit of the doubt enough.

    7. Considering my flaws to be permanent characteristics that cannot be overcome.

    Fortunately, I am getting better, and NEW FRIENDS are helping to point out that I'm not nearly as bad at these things as I make it seem. In truth, THEY are the proof, and they are challenging me to let go of the limits that I've placed upon myself by identifying so strongly with these flaws.

    1- I'm TOO nice. I should have like "doormat" written on my forehead
    2- I always wanna feel like I'm wanted by someone. ALWAYS. Otherwise, I'm lonely and all depressed.
    3- This one's a physical flaw, but I have a thumb that looks like a toe :o it's like sooo much shorter than my other thumb

    1) MY WEIGHT!!

    2) My teeth, they're not perfect and that bugs me.

    3) My feet. I just hate feet.

    4) My sarcasm sometimes surpasses the limit people are willing to take.

    5) My eyes, they're brown around the pupil, then green, then a ring of dark blue but they just look brown or green unless you're close.

    6) My breasts. Too big for my liking.

    7) My temper.

    8) My stubbornness.

    9) My know-it-all syndrome I get from my mom.

    10) My nose.

    11) My lack of trust.

    12) I'm lazy.

    13) I hate to cook.

    14) My height. Though sometimes I love it.

    I push people away because I'm afraid to let anyone in again.
    The things I dislike about myself, I dislike and point out in others.
    I'm impatient.
    I like to be the center of attention, and when I'm not I get angry.
    I'm stubborn & lazy.
    I'm too afraid to fail so I don't even try.

    too critical of myself in all areas of my life
    can be overly emotional--yet too practical/rational (go figure)
    talk too much
    worry way too much about what people (I care about most) think/feel of me.
    i tend to push people away, when i want to actually keep them in my life-prob because I fear them leaving me first;) (i think i turn into an annoying cling monster without meaning to)

    can't think of anything else yet...but i'm hopelessly flawed

    1. I have low tolerance for stupid people (actually, I don't see this as a flaw, but I suppose the b-tchiness that results from that low tolerance isn't a good thing)
    2. I live in extremes, never in moderation (either never talk or never shut up, overly emotional or very apathetic, etc)
    3. Low self-esteem and generally a negative outlook on life
    4. Trust issues; but then again, since most of the people I've ever known have either been a bully or a false friend that actually makes a lot of sense.
    5. Lazy/major procrastinator
    6. I guess the obvious one: being overweight due to gluttony (as well as laziness)

    Oh, I just think I'm being flexible&kind...but been told I'm way too passive and doormat like!
    When the anger does come out it is usually passive aggressive (although this has gotten better:)
    I'm too stubborn.
    I have trouble speaking up for myself when it really matters

    well, at least on forums like this you can find plenty of brothers/sisters to relate to. Welcome to the club, lol.

    I worry what others think of me.
    I try to change people, and I have no tolerance for ppl who make stupid choices; then they complain to me about it.
    I am way to opinionated
    I tend to interrupt a little to much, because I love to talk. ( that comes from my parents, to get a word in you always had to interrupt)
    When I give advice to ppl who ask for it, and they do not follow it, makes me mad.
    Very short temper ( that is a fault of all redheads)
    Sometimes I have no common sense

    I care about what others think to much.
    I am too hard on myself.
    I lie sometimes to avoid fessing up to something.... (man, i am worse then a kid)...
    Unable to self-motivate when it comes to diet and exercise.
    Not asking for help when i need it... and therefor putting on a show as if everything is hunky-dory =)
    Now showing my vulnerable side.
    Unable to make new friends easily (this sucks when you are moving around every few years with the military).
    Binge eating when my emotions get the best of me. UG, I really dislike that one.

    on the lighter side...
    I can't touch my touch to my nose either (although i am close)
    can't whistle really loud
    can't make farting noises with my armpit and hand... LOL
