I'm logical to the point of inhuman, somewhat like Meursault from The Stranger. I really don't have much emotion, and when I do, it is mostly spite.
Escapist, what are your major personality flaws?

I'm quite lazy and a bit of a slob. At the same time I swear a lot, tend to get angry kind of quick and I'm a bit of a narcissist. Also occasionally I tend to be a bit self-involved. But I'm getting better at the narcissim and the anger (though I refuse to drop the swearing. I just know how to appropriately time it now).
Totally, same. But also...Ironic Pirate said:
Problems with focus,
I over analyze virtually every situation.
I am a bit arrogant at times.
Low self esteem.
I will admit that i have an obsessive nature, mostly with my friends. Im very paranoid and always thinking about what they think of me and that. To be honest, id probably stalk... certain people i know if i had the ability/desire. It actually kinda scares me how much it happens.
I tend to brush events that really screwed up my life off as much as possible.
I also ignore my own needs and wants to take care of other people. This drives my boyfriend bugnuts on occasion.
And then there's the people pleasing and the emotional masochism...

I'm lazy.I would always rather do nothing than something, and when pressed to do something I procrastinate until there's only time to to a half-assed job of it (while bitching about not having enough time to do it right), and go straight back to doing nothing until the next time I have to do something.
I procrastinate far too much, to the point where I'm doing something mere minutes before I have to when I've had weeks to. I've also gotten so fed up with people beating around the bush and telling half truths and such that I'm completely honest nearly all the time to the point where I can be a real ass about it.
Uh, there's just about everything wrong with me. I'm narcissistic, evasive, attention-seeking. I'm often depressed because I'm too lazy not to be. I expect people to know what's wrong with me without me having to tell them, and I get angry when they don't. Everything's only okay if I do it; if someone else does the same to me, that's not acceptable. I'm overly self-aware. It'd be a good thing, except it fills me with self-loathing because I'd rather be able to bullshit myself.
I'm fickle and superficial, I lead people on because I don't want to tell them I don't like them 'just in case' and besides it's flattering. I'm very selfish; my feelings matter more than anyone else's. I still can't justify the way I treat people though. I can't commit to anyone. I let them get as close as I can bear, then I push them away. I don't trust anyone. I want intimacy but I'm afraid of getting hurt. And I'm paranoid - I constantly need positive feedback and reinforcement, I care too much about what others think of me. I probably wrote this wall of text in the hope that some kind stranger will tell me I'm not as bad as I think I am. Or not.

i have very low self esteem. and i never show how depressed i really am. i keep it all bottled up and im afraid ill hurt myself if it goes too far. ive been trying to be happier tho.
I'm usually pretty open about it, up until I got bored of talking about it to people.Blueruler182 said:
Starting therapy this week, which will hopefully limit the number of bad days. I'm OK most of the time, provided I keep myself as active as a hamster on an IV drip of caffeine. As soon as I stop doing things, the depression kind of creeps back up on me, and I'm gone for a couple of days.
I joke around constantly and when I become serious some people think I am incredibly angry for some odd reason. Besides that though I guess nothing out of the ordinary.
Ironically enough, in contrast to how I also snark a lot, I tend to get overly serious sometimes too.
It's odd.
It's odd.
Horrendous narcicism. I tend to disagree with everyones opinions and am very vocal about when I think they are wrong. And little things irk me alot, such is incorrect grammar. And I have a horrible self image. And I generally detest myself.
...I think thats all.

I care too much about everything and everyone, and that often results in me getting hurt and becoming depressed and crushing everyone with my emotional baggage. I'm also really shy in situations like parties. Oh, and it doesn't take much to piss me off.
Actually, I fit some of those to, I just didn't think of them.narwhalman218 said:
The focus problem is only with things I don't want to do (math). The analyzing tends to be with movies or things I want to buy, but has happened with situations. I'm still puzzling over something a girl called me a month ago.
And I have fairly low self esteem.
