This topic was created in the Aquarius forum by cappysweetie on Saturday, July 8, 2006 and has 6 replies.
We all have personality imperfections about ourselves that we either can improve or embrace.
Indeed, I am a flawed female who is constantly working on self improvement. What are are your flaws in the followong areas:
1. Personally
2. Socially
3. Professionally
4.. Romantically
5. *** Name just 2 flaws that you are not ashamed ? These 2 flaws are apart of who you are and are something you will not change. Do they make you unique in some way? ***
Socially: I find it VERY difficult to make friends (real friends, not associates). Im friendly to everyone otherwise.
Romantically: I am not romantic. I dont give a relationship a chance, b4 I call a quits.
Professionally: I am a procrastinator...and proud of it. My work always turns out awesome anyway..."I work better under pressure"

Okay finally
1. Personally
Fear f my own ignorance -- I don?t feel that I am intelligent enough for my age. I can pick up on things quick but I learn things at a slower pace which is very uncomfortable to those who can instantly learn something brand new. I have little faith in my own capabilities. Confidence in my own opinions is much stronger then my confidence in what I can do. For example, I enjoy cooking but I have a fear that my food should taste better then it actually does -- I get compliments on my food but it?s still to good enough. There are many things I know how to do but I am fearful of bring them to the surface because I have been belittled in the past along with being called conceited. My self-image has been a problem for years because I generally don?t see myself as being an attractive female. Average ? sure, but not beautiful. This insecurity had much to do with my upbringing as well.
Also, I can be ultra sensitive at times, my insecurities results in my questioning peoples motives towards me.
2. Socially
I am usually shy when it comes to meeting new people. I can really engage in a conversation unless I feel comfortable with that person. Unfortunately I cannot get friendly with a person I just met 20 minutes ago -- if I do it?s rare. My shyness holds me back tremendously -- I am assertive but you have to be aggressive in today?s society, in which I am not. I am better talking within a small group of people then I am in talking in a crowd. I can deal with too many people but the crowd can get overwhelming after a while-- I generally run errands when there?s not too many people in the stores or when the traffic is low. If I have to do personal runs with many people around, I generally do it quickly ? I will not browse.

3. Professionally
*** I?ll speak from a students point of view *** Again shyness hold me back from many things -- I am assertive but I am not aggressive. In today?s world, you must be very forceful and competitive in the job in your chosen career path. Well, seeing that I don?t want to hurt or inconvenience anyone, this leaves me feeling left out. I?m not the ?if you can?t beat them, then join them? type of a person. Share I am adaptable but if I don?t agree with some thing I will sick to my guns regardless.
4. Romantically
I am very emotionally and I can give my heart away too soon because I feel so deeply. Also, until recently I to adapt to every guy I either dated or became serious with -- I was like an ?every woman? in so many words. Whatever skills or qualities that were outstanding to those men, I would always present that part of myself instead of the other layers that are apart of me. As a result, I felt rather empty ?. I yearned for them to at least want to know the real me but it seemed that they only wanted what was on the surface instead of what was below it. ***It?s quite funny really, the men that become my friend first before presuing anything beyond that can get to know me much better ***I am into public displays of acknowledgement NOT affection. There were boyfriends that enjoyed kissing me in public -- I convinced myself that it was a display of acknowledgement, not affection ?.haha I was lying to myself. If my love gives me a kiss on the cheek or puts his arm around me ? IT ISN?T REQUIRED if he were to do something that?s good enough for me. Yes, in the past I have said that I don?t mind pubic displays of affection, but in reality it does make me feel uneasy and a bit loose. All the other stuff should be private between us. Also, I am insecure about a man?s motives towards me because I haven?t had that much luck in the past.
5. The two flaws I embrace are ?
My voice Some people say it?s too soft and high, but I don?t care ? it my voice and I have no problem with the way it sounds.
My quest for knowledge. Yes, I get called a nerd and that I am also told that I study too much. Well I don?t care ? learning new things have never gotten anyone in trouble Winking
HEY!!!! Prime smile
