A conscience isn't a curse - unless you want to be doing things that a conscience won't allow you to!

The worst thing about myself? I guess it's being relentlessly honest and outspoken about it. I should temper my honesty with discretion, and learn to keep my mouth shut on certain occasions, so as not to upset people who don't want to know. Except that most of the people I know like that quality about me because they know where they stand, and where I stand, even if it does make them uncomfortable.

Yes I am way too open with my personal stuff, and it's a very dangerous thing, even...
But when it comes to others I can totally keep a secret, I just tend to open up too fast to people and end up regretting it later...
I have two other things...
One is being very insecure/shy, and the other is procrastination...
Here I go again, telling all my flaws to you people...
But I am sure most of you already know me by now...:)
LOL...:rolleyes:

I'd say I'm too indecisive at times and have to weigh all pros and cons and I often get lost within myself.

Me too, Tora...
Oh, and I can also be real clingy too, even though
I know it just means I will only suffer a lot more...

This isn't an annoying trait, just a self-defeating one, but I have so much self-doubt about my abilities that I tend not to do things simply because I think I will ultimately fail - and failure (so it has been branded into my psyche) is not an option. And yet, I know it's better to try and fail than not to try at all; but I still prevent myself from even trying.

Stupid, isn't it.

TD, it's not stupid at all, I think it's much more common than you might think. That fact that you see this in yourself probably means you're already half-way there to changing the habit,....yaay!

My biggest problem is I guess that I always love to make things even more complicated.I love to ask too many questions always to everything I'm trying to explain and anyone else is trying to explain to me.
I can't take things straight up the way they are,I need to get inside of them and see the other side of it...Each time I think I'm coming to a certain conclusion I begin to hesitate there...I begin to think maybe I'm thinking a wrong way,maybe it should be different...
In other words I always have a few interpretations to one experienced situation that leaves me struggling between two shores of the same river...and then I get confused.I really hate it...this quality to prove everything.

I think my flaws/faults are that i cant make eye contact with people unless i totally 100% trust them ! i have been told that this practice of mine also infuriates other people who think i am not listening to them or giving them my full attention (which of course i am) my reasoning for it is this: the eyes tell you a lot about that person and if i dont trust that person the chances are i dont want to know them , i know that may come across as arrogant but i assure u all i aint arrogant its just like a way i have of saying i like you , i trust you or the opposite i dont and i dont......

Another flaw is that sometimes i am too honest with friends and family ! i have never believed in beating around the bush , tell it like it is , and well......sometimes that is the wrong thing at the wrong time as i have found out to my cost a few times

I think Mr Seagal said it best as Forrest Taft in On Deadly Ground :

" What does it take to change the essence of a man "

Forrest was a tough guy, but in a way, he was a very tender guy, in fact a lot of his characters are just that way, a real paradox...I bet Steven is just like that too...
Just charming I say, soooooo incredible, so handsome, so charming...

Hey Zenman-too bad more people aren't honest with their family members-instead of sitting around pretending we like each other :) That is why that saying is so truthful:
You can pick your friends but not your relatives...if they weren't related to ya,you probably wouldn't want anything to do with them :)

Smile dammit!
Though people presume i'm confident, inside i can be a bit paranoid. I am the sort who always offers workmen a drink, remembering rude customers who never bothered when i worked for them and can be over-obliging,which can backfire from a colder sort.Do you want a list,lol!!?
