Low self esteem around women I'm attracted to (and only around women I'm attracted to, for some strange reason)

I would say I'm loud and obnoxious at times. I also display small levels of Narcissism, as well as having a mildly short fuse. I don't take anything seriously, and feel the need to make (sometimesbad) jokes out of everything. And they're not all in good taste. I can also be lazy at times.
This about sums me up. Even nicely phrased.. yes I'm also very picky in my choice of words when I can be. Brings some awkward moments when having a conversation with your friends. Those..WTF-moments.

I have this compulsion to immediately disagree with whatever anybody says no matter what in a sarcastic way so basically I'm English.

Too pessimistic about myself and my abilities, I often mistake what people are implying (like, I think they are flirting when they aren't) and I am loud, talk too much and I tend to bore people. Yet I still have friends. Not girlfriends though. Last relationship lasted a month and I was thinking a lot that it would end and she would grow tired of me.

Can I just answer that I am entirely flaws and leave it at that? Even if I can't, fuck you, I'm going to anyway.

I can't commit myself to anything important. I have full knowledge of how I should treat my time at college. But I can't get myself to care. I just can't. I don't know how I'll get hired with my attitude.

I don't trust people, I'm an impulsive spender, I have sudden and drastic mood swings, I fear sudden intimacy, I fear sexual actions, I take my anger out on the wrong people, I blame depression on my ex, I physically abuse myself and I sniff empty brandy bottles for some sort of weird high.

I would say my main flaws are my shyness, the fact that I don't stand up for myself as often as I should, my self-confidence could be higher. Oh, and sometimes I tend to bottle everything up inside. Not good.

Quick question - are you me from the future or something? This is the second time I've quoted you on something like this for the exact same reasons. Except I don't think I come across as arrogant.

I'm far too hesitant to admit any problems I'm having to anyone I know (but anonymous people on the internet are fine!) - since being diagnosed with depression, I've frequently been asked how long I can remember being this way. I lie about it, to everyone. Ever since I can remember, I've been suffering depression symptoms, but I claim it's only since January to avoid too much questioning.
I can't cope with being bored, and become massively pissy with everyone around me if ever I am.
I'm perpetually childish, and have no intention of changing that.
I'm fairly pathetic when it comes to talking to girls I'm interested in (I can talk to them, but seem to be genuinely incapable of asking people on a date and/or trying anything in a club/bar)
I'm possibly overly trusting, despite being a paranoid wreck at times (I trust people, just sometimes I don't think anyone likes me)
This list could go on for a while. Thank you, hypothetical reader, for bearing with me as I vent my anger at myself onto the internet.

Oh, and I'm somewhat obsessed by my own character flaws, which occasionally leads to self-esteem problems.
Yes. I am from the future.

Other than the being pissy and the trusting part, that's pretty much me. The girl thing is connected to the low self-esteem though. I'm working on it.

I'm not uncomfortable with my depression, that's why I'm so open about it. Plus, it's fun to watch other people's reactions. I've gotten therapy, and for the most part I'm over and and a very happy person. But on a down day I get the symptoms back. The down days are getting further apart, thank god.

Im quite a shy person iniatially when it come to meeting new people so i always try to avoid social situations like parties, but eventually the more i do something the less shy and more outgoing i become

Also, i find it difficult to be myself when talking to girls so i end up being or trying to be someone im not and usually just come off as weird or a bit geeky. Its definately something i need to work on
This plus narcissism, also, i can't stand seeing a person eat.... not sure why
EDIT: i keep alot of crap bottled up
EDIT2: also, i dont trust or like very many people, i have narrowed it down to less than 10

My main problem is I don't lie, and all my others ones stem from that. I'm shy because most people hate to hear the truth, or I come off as slightly arrogant to some because I get annoyed talking to ignorant or hypocritical people. I know it's impossible to not be a hypocrite but I try, I hate waiting on someone so I always make sure to be on time. Also I'm constantly paranoid.

I was momentarily ambitious and motivated, but I lacked the true motivation and perseverance to make things happen. I procrastinated to a ridiculous extent.

I sometimes lied about the future to get me out of trouble with minor things, and I often did have some good intentions, but they just waned away until I forgot I said I'd do all the dishes last night, stopped being motivated and procrastinated too much at school work, or couldn't be bothered replying to the people who clicked "like" on my "click like and I'll tell you what I like about you" facebook status. It tainted what I believed to be a generally honest nature. I guess I learned what my limits are with some people, the lenient ones got exploited the most by me.

I am what I call emotionally promiscuous and fickle. I often vaguely daydream about many different guys, whatever one my mood suits. My emotions aren't particularly strong, just enough to daydream and internet stalk them a little. That alone isn't that bad when I'm not committed to anyone, don't tell anyone about who I like, or become too obsessed. The problem was that I could get jealous, bitter, and act possessive even when I had no intention of committing to one. I could unintentionally lead guys on by flirting, the fact that I clearly explained my intentions of leaving official relationships until later (I won't call anyone my boyfriend until I find someone who I am sure I really like) did not help. It became problematic when two serious and sensitive guys liked me at the same time and I kind of liked both. In my defense, I was honest about it, but the truth still messed things up. I guess I shouldn't be so quick to follow my whims to make them feel good about themselves in the short term.

I am socially lazy. I don't feel like getting ready and probably don't have clothes I am comfortable going out in tonight? Meh, I'll stay at home all day in my pajamas, listen to music alone, and lurk social networking sites and forums to make up for my relative lack of social interaction. That alone isn't really a bad thing, it's just that the same attitude made me hesitant to do important things like make phone calls or hand in job applications. It also somewhat jeopardizes maintaining good relations with friends. One of my best friends seems to have replaced me with another girl. It might have something to do with the fact that she seems to be cool with seeing him whenever, but I always postponed whenever he asked me to do something.

I am torn between being wanting to be sweet, kind, non-judgmental, and see the best in people; and wanting to express the distaste I have for aspects of society and see and say things how they probably are despite the impersonal nature reality has sometimes, torn between being bitter and sweet. Complete indifference is boring and meaningless. Trying to see things both ways can be good, but there's dissonance inside me sometimes.

I used past tense because I don't want to continue with some things. I don't want to say I AM some bad things because that's the past.

There's probably more stuff but I'm tired of typing about this.
