Oh you know, the usual. I'm lazy, I procrastinate too easily, I'm socially awkward, have low self-esteem and I'm overly anxious. Oh and I'm overweight :|
Pretty much this for me but add in that I'm short and I look like I'm about 12 when I'm actually 18.
Surely the age thing is good, it's better than looking like a prune :)
Yeah at least I'll look young when I'm old while everyone else will be all wrinkly and old looking :p Does get annoying though when I tell everyone my age and they don't believe me, especially when it comes to getting ID'd

I care too much. Far too much. Got me in a lot of trouble a few years back.

I can also be a bit too emotionally cold. I'm aware that contradicts what I just said about caring. But it's true. I can be either extreme, caring too much or just caring far too little.

I'm also too awesome for this world.

I can be too stubborn.

I'm too critical of myself. It's because I'm too awesome, I have to keep it in check.

I have a great backbone, I just have trouble using it depending on the person I'm using it on.

I apologise far too much, even for things I didn't do. I really need to break out of that.

When it is bright out my eyes squint, like normal, but one of my eyebrows gets all jagged and upped while the other stays relaxed.

I am the #1 procrastinator... I woke up at 3am one time to finish an entire art project due the next day.

I hate having to find a job and the thought of working all my life, can't I just live MY life?

I love it when people call me names I find it hilarious!

I'm kind of mean to one of my best friends when in the presence of my other friend.

I've ruined past chances with attractive females just to get a laugh out of my friends.

I cross people's boundaries easily.

If I don't want to talk to a person I won't, which leads to an awkward feeling, mostly in the other person.

I am really good at small talk but once somebody says something I am not ready for I tend to fall on my face.

My weakness is that I care too much! and my scars remind me that the past is real! I tear my heart open just to feel!

I don't care for myself enough.

I get super depressed thinking of all the good times I've had in the past.

etc. etc. etc. I could go on for days months but I wouldn't want to bore anybody.
Aside from the eyebrow thing, you sound exactly like one of my best friends. Weeeeeird.

OT: Well, I've basically gone through my life with people telling me I have a lot of talent and potential if I'd actually work at it. So I guess I'm a bit lazy/a procrastinator.

I'm good at reading people, but even when my mind is telling me to shut the fuck up, I keep running my mouth and watching in horror at the expressions on people's faces. I'm pretty sure that ballsed up my most recent relationship.

I hide my bouts of depression behind gleeful insanity, fake narcissism and humor.

Edit: Even though I'm very pragmatic by nature, I also tend to be a romantic. It's a painful combination.

I have anger issues ranging from trivial things (game just kicked my ass, obviously cheated), to bigger problems. My anger stems mostly from not being very good at communicating myself, either emotionally or just matter of factly.

I'm insecure about my intelligence, tending to lash out when I feel like I am being made the stupid one in a group.

I am more vindictive than I would ever care to admit. I cant let things go, at least not for sometime. I get moody, very moody every so often. Some part of me enjoys being upset, thus it is very difficult to come out of said mood even with others trying to help.

Believe it or not I used to be a really shy, overly nice kid. What the hell happened to me?
Ah well.
Hi, flaws twin!

If you find a fix or workaround for any of these would you let me know? I miss being nice. :(

I quit smoking a year ago, so for a long time could just blame that - but now I have nothing to blame and have had to accept I'm just a ***** now. A stupid, vindictive *****. A stupid, vindictive ***** with stupid hair. And insecurities.

Let's see, procrastinating, lazy, paranoid, rather competitive and I should probably be a little more thoughtful about what I eat.

I tend to hide my emotions, even when I'm feeling fairly down or am really bothered/hurt/worried about something, I still act like a happy-go-lucky fellow. Though I do have problems confronting people with problems I may have with them. I'm even nice to people I truly, utterly hate from the deepest depths of my being, luckily there's only one such person right now (and being nice to him isn't stopping me from setting up ways to ruin his life, if I ever snap I fear the worst for him, I do hope I snap soon).

Also, I sometimes notice I tend to really warm up to ideas/thoughts that some might describe as being slightly socio/psychopathic.

So no, as you can see I don't really have any flaws at all. I'm pretty much perfect really.

Well, I have no sense of direction and I tend to get lost easily, even when I'm following directions.

However, if a have a map present, I can find my way rather easily. I can effectively get out of being lost just by having a map to tell me where I am.

1) Whenever I try to solve a problem, I often latch onto the first plausible (at least to me) solution that comes to mind and stick with it. I won't stop to think of something better if it doesn't work. I'll just keep repeating the same idea over and over until it either, through attrition, works or I give up in frustration. On occasion, I might even notice I've fallen into this routine, and coerce myself into conjuring a better plan.

This quirk also applies when playing video games, trying to create something (a project, a craft), or trying to write an essay or story. If the procedure doesn't produce the hoped for result, I'll blame the game for poor design or the teacher for vague or unreasonable instruction. Then, I'll probably consider that I'm being a fool and stop blaming outside factors. It's just me being stubborn again... you have more than one idea in your head, fuzzy, you've just got to let them have a chance as well. The first half-decent idea is almost always not the optimal.

I think I recall reading something along the lines of, "insanity is repeating the same thing over and over again, and expecting a different result each time." Well, I'm here to tell you that it might just be a fairly average person, such as I, being a bit stupid and bull-headed.

2) I feel I should be more aware and concerned with world events, the news, politics and history, among other things. But I tend to be much more apathetic than I would care to admit. On a related train of thought, in my opinion, I have woefully few genuine interests and even less areas of passion. I need to broaden my horizons. Maybe programming, I always did like figuring out how to program things on my graphing calculator?

Eh, why not. Any opportunity to inform the world of my personal shortcomings, right?

I'm lazy, unmotivated, self-obsessed, withdrawn, aloof, insecure and regard myself with no small measure of contempt.

I'm too perfect. Also, I have a massive ego. Oh, also I use big confusing words that almost nobody knows, for example, saying "I disincline to acquiesce your request" instead of no.

I don't have opposable thumbs which can make playing video games very difficult.

Me?
Ok.

I have a pretty crippling lack of confidence, and it's just gotten worse as I've gotten older. Deep down I know I'm skilled at a lot of things, but I just lack the confidence to put my skills to work. It's caused me to rarely venture outside of my comfort zone, which is not a good thing when you're 19 and trying to get a job. I have a bad habit of always saying "no" when it comes to new things, though it's something I'm working on.

Lack of confidence is pretty much the root of all my other problems, from my slight social awkwardness, to my hesitation to try new things.

I push myself to the point of destruction.
I'm spiteful to those I hate.
I find it hard to trust people.
If not on meds I'm a violent person.
I can't stand people.
I'm also quite narcissistic.
Even in the face of these flaws I try to be perfect which leads back flaw one.
I'm stubborn, to the point where I have long hair simply because people said I couldn't.

Both on the attracting damaged people and having false rumours spread.

I am inclined to agree with my sister, people attract people with a similar mindset. Part of the reason I attract "Damaged" people was due to being myself "Damaged" for quite a while. As for the rumor mill? It really sucks, doesn't it. I mean, seriously, it is almost strange how much damage a few words in the wrong place can do to someone. Like literally chase them out of town.

*"I am disinclined to acquiesce to your request" would be more accurate. And, from my perspective, it doesn't make you sound smart or sound like you are trying to talk in a deliberately obfuscating manner, merely that you recently watched Pirates of the Caribbean, the Curse of the Black Pearl. But the primary flaw that you listed is rather obvious.

This thread is rather strange. But they do pop up on occasion. It seems people are posting either to make themselves feel better (By looking at people who admit to worse) or further sink into their own dark pits of misery. These threads really bring out the emos in force.

Not that I can *****, I used to be one.

*Generic everything will get better if you just try comment*

Hey "Stupid vindictive ***** with stupid hair and insecurities" I am Mr F. My self destructive tendencies (And, if my last ex is to be believed, Messiah complex) mean that you instantly seem more attractive to me!

Aint flaws fun.

I HAVE NO FLAWS, I AM PERFECT!

Well, I have a few *cough*a lot*cough*, lemme list a few.

First, I have a bit of a narcisism problem, though I do tend to joke about it often, I do have a problem with self immage, as at times I see myself as a god, and others I see myself as a hated unwanted outcast.

Second, I have never had a long term relationship with a woman, and I know why, lemme lay it down like this, when I'm a self absorbed godmode(as i call it) cocky as hell asshat, I tend to have NO PROBLEM finding a woman, it's like BAM "Now I am dating 5 women and get to choose the one I like best!" then I do, and it's good for about a month, after which point something in life invariably shits all over my parade and I end up going through a slump, at which point I generally do this thing where I introvert a bit to solve my problems, and don't talk as much and am less "dynamic" and exciting for a bit, the whole "awesome new experience and adventure" high the woman was innitially experiencing while around me wears off, and then because she doesn't think the way I do, the way I deal with shit is hard to understand, which I then try to explain even though I know it won't work, and either she dumps me, or I dump her because she starts avoiding me.

Third, I was raised in an affectionate home, that was also fraught with unexpected and painful violence and or screaming shouting matches, which means I hit the jackpot for neurological fuckery, and when I'm alone and haven't had meaningful affectionate contact with someone for god knows how long I start to hate the idea of people touching me just as much as I crave it... Also means I tend to always live expecting something horrible to happen at any moment, and any time something is going good I just KNOW that someone or something is going to try to kill me or harm me or derail my relationship with a girlfriend or friend somehow, which tends to put me in a state of "ready to tear someone a new one" or "ready to bail and run at any given moment".

Fourth, my mother(see single welfare mom) was a totally shy reclusive person outside work, meaning until I moved in next door to someone my age when I was 7, I had no friends... NONE, meaning I was never propperly socialized, and was homeschooled even then until I was in grade 6, at which point I went to school wearing shitty handmedowns and worn out shit, in an upper middleclass neighbourhood, essencially destroying my self esteem, as anyone different enough will become the main target for everyone, and thus, had no friends at school, combine that with moving away from the only kids my age that I had to be friends with, and well, it didn't go so great... I don't know how many of you had a life situation where you had only enemies out of the house, and at home a warzone where there were three women equally fighting for some "power" that they immagined they were going to have by being in charge of a goddamn HOUSE. but yeah tack on antidepressants which suppressed everything that wasn't anger, and you now can see my mental state for a total of 4 years of my life, during which I completed grade 6 and 7 had to redo grade 8 due to never having homework done, and ended up in grade 9 from where I dropped out and went into a state of reclusion and standoffness, watching the world and trying to figure it all out, until the age of 20 when I started working shitty jobs...

There are more, but since it's tuning into a text wall, and I highly doubt anyone woul even bother to read what I've already written down... It really doesn't matter.

I care way to much what other people think about what I do. I want everyone to like me even though that is impossible.
I'm extremely self absorbed
I'm Hideous
I'm very socially retarded

But who cares about that Bull! I'd write the list of all the things I love about myself, but it would take too long and would be such a long read.

I think you would get a more in-depth picture from someone who has known you for a while filling this in for you, sure some of your flaws are obvious whereas others are not even flaws.

For example, some people think I am arrogant... but its a fake arrogance about things that arent important to hide a deep self-loathing.

I cant stand cowardice when you have nothing to lose, I dont care if you are scared or just dont want to. If you have nothing to lose then there is no point in running away, I see this mostly in games as that is a place where you literally have nothing to lose yet you get cheaters, cowards and the like who will do anything to not die upto and including losing the match.

I probably swear too much. Though I notice a distinct lack of it in this post thus far so... fuck.

Oh, I am also really sarcastic... all of the time about everything. If you see me smirk then I have just thought of something sarcastic to say and am probably about to say it, but I dont see that as a flaw because I like sarcasm.

I guess I dont really smile either, well not without reason.

And I dont have the confidence to talk to any lass unless I know she is in a relationship or has a child and is thus not someone I would try to date or that I think would think that I wanted to date them, but for some reason any single girl is like a "Shut Up" button for me.
