Mine is never giving people the benefit of the doubt. I always find myself assuming the worst. I mark it up to my job.

What's yours?

that's because 99% of the population can't be trusted. You will always find something about someone you won't be able to trust
 
I am a workaloholic. I put in sometimes 18 hours a day when school is in full force. Students love me because I go the distance supporting them but it does take it toll on my social life and my free time with my wife. I make up for it in the summer though. I am an uber-Type A personality that just can't sit back and wait for things to happen. Everything has to be done yesterday and it has to be perfect.

yes a huge ego is a curse.. it's usually followed around by the curse of "i can't get laid so I jerk off with my tears every night"

You are a teacher? Professor or high school or middle or what?

I don't think it's today's society. yes it is probably worse than 40 years ago but that's why you just look out for number 1

See now, the downside of being better than everyone else, is that people tend to assume you're pretentious.

This other curse you speak of, I have never experienced though. Maybe you can enlighten the rest of us? :D

College. Got a PhD in finance. I teach managerial finance and business law (and have a JD degree). Just won professor of the year too.

teaching for me is so much more than just putting material out in class. We need to be mentors and recognize that we are planting seeds in peoples minds and that is a very serious business. Too few professor go the distance.

Most people here probably think I am abrasive and opinionated but you wouldn't recognize me outside of this message board. IMO teaching is one of the most honorable professions a person can have - if it is done right.
 
i have zero patience and an extremely addictive personality. cant enjoy anything without pushing it as far as humanly possible.

don't play world of warcraft
 
as wierd as it sounds, I have a hard time with loyalty. I guess it's the same as trust but some guys that I've been friends with for like 15 years, they can be trusted unconditionally. But I've been burned by friends that I thought were loyal and in one moment, usually over something stupid they prove they are not the loyal friend I think they are. When someone has proven to be a loyal friend, I in turn am very loyal. Needless to say I only have about 7 guys I'd trust totally.
 
In no particular order:

1) Addictive personality. While I've mostly conquered it, I still have a hard time doing anything I enjoy in moderation.

2) I have a hard time being confrontational when I really need to be. It's so easy for me to stand up for my friends, and so hard for me to stand up for myself and hold people accountable for the wrongs they've done me.

3) I have a fortress, not just a wall, around me. There's no method to getting past it...either you clear my army of self defense mechanisms right off the bat, or you don't.

4) Type a, type a, type a. I expect nothing less than perfection of myself in everything I do, and I know it can be exhausting to be around.

I think ATW scaled that wall 1000 times over via kitten pics.

Sounds easy enough.

Pretty much me to a "T".

I'm also loyal to a fault. It's really come back to bite me in the ass a few times.

Ha! Nah, he hasn't. I am certainly fond of him, but no one can scale the wall over the internet....this is still "safe" for me because none of you actually know me in real life.

I found that the bigger the wall I built, the more of a miserable fuck I became.

I missed a lot.

That's not to say that I'm referring to anything in the traditional sense, but I missed a lot of what I wanted.

I am too...but I don't consider it a flaw in my character, but that in one of those who have not deserved my loyalty. I've said it here before, and I'll say it again...I'm not going to let bad people change who I am.
 
My expectations are too high (for myself as well as others) so failure is almost always a final result.
 
jack sparrow said:
Then what are you gong to let them do? Live in your mind, so deep seeded that it will probably never change?
Click to expand...

Touche...I figured someone would throw that back at me. I don't think they live in my mind. I just formed some really bad coping skills when I was very young. I don't think I can control that much anymore...but I CAN refuse to wallow in the mud with the other pigs.
 
I tend to pick out every little detail that someone does wrong and I dont think there way is right. You could set me up with the hottest women youve ever seen and in two days I would have a bunch of little things that werent right and she should do better.

Its not fun being this way.

lol

I almost replied to her post and said the same thing.


That is why I started fucking with her. I like breaking down girls who have walls up. not in a mean way just to try try to get them to open up. (usually their legs follow.) lol not for nerf though. She is just cool.
 
I have no flaws, I'm perfectly messed up like everyone else. Which makes us all unique and great in our own way

It used to be that I don't take myself nearly seriously enough. I got A LOT better at it, but still I don't drive myself to do all that I could do were I not so depressed all the time.

I am getting a lot done, but not nearly as much as I could be.

I am glad though that I have EARNED a lot more self-respect simply because I stopped being afraid to step outside of the mold that was put upon me by others. :)

chances are if you keep trusting untrustworthy folks

it is something in you that attracts them.


in a former life i was the bad guy. i had tons and tons of

*victim mentality* lovers. i would always oblige them by

using and then abandoning them. internally these women viewed

the world as an unsafe place populated by untrustworthy

men. thats why they sought me out, to fulfill their prophecies.

all of this transpires in the subconscious plane.

until there is some level of awareness we are doomed to operate

as automatons.

many prefer ignorance.

it's sometimes equated with bliss.
 
Disliking people in general. That's not a character flaw though so I don't have one.
 
unmotivated , no purpose, procrastinate, drink too much - cant buckle down and get serious, life is no work all play.

How true, how true. Sorta like people who are always finding that they are getting abused one way or another.

It starts with YOU. Once a body recognizes and addresses whatever it is that is *off* within themselves then the evolution can begin.

The world is full of abusive controlling people just as it is full of liars/cheats and those that steal, just as it is full of those that will build you up, then abandon you. Interestingly enough these types don't hesitate to turn around and "blame the victim." To a certain extent THAT IS TRUE as those people DO ATTRACT these negative types into their lives. But that doesn't mean that "the victim" need remain that way. If you find that you are feeling that these negative types of people are THE ONLY other people in the world then you need to look within yourself and figure out how to better identify and NOT TOLERATE these types.

Because the world is also filled with people that are kind, loving, supportive that have integrity and honor who treat others with respect and decency and who do NOT revel in the pain and suffering of others.

NOTE:

I am not talking about a woman who is violently raped or a guy who is beaten within an inch of his life for "being in the wrong place at the wrong time". Please do not misunderstand my use of the word victim.

My entire life I was told that I was a piece of shit that would never amount to anything, that I had a dark and evil soul, that I wasn't even good for sex and that when men would tire of me after the sex they would toss me away like an old, worn shoe. That and a whole host of other nasty lies that I CHOSE to believe. Interesting once I hit the bottom and had no place to look but UP I decided that I must bear some responsibility for where I ended up, meaning that there must habe been something REALLY off in my thought processes to have chosen the mate and friends that I had chosen as my mate abused me horribly, then took my entire life away and "my friends" all abused, then abandoned me. It was hard for me to look in myself because honestly? I thought that I must be a bad person to have so many bad things happen to me and the thought that my mother was right all along was just too painfull for me to bear. Well, once I reconciled the notion that I was a GOOD PERSON that made some REALLY BAD CHOICES every day life got a little bit easier. Then *magically* I began to see all THE GOOD PEOPLE in the world and though it took A LOT for me to allow them into my life, I eventually ended up doing just that. Whether we are talking life partner or total stranger that let me sleep safely next to them for a night when I was homeless expecting nothing in return - they were kind, respectfull and helpfull. So now little by little I gained the chutzpah to keep trying to do all the things that my talents will allow and I garner a tremendous amount of respect.

I just hope that I don't run out of days before I can make up for all the lost time, all that talent and positive intention wasted. <---- it is often this thought that keeps me trying to forge ahead.

For many years I had thought that my headstone should bear the words "Unrealized Potential". Recently I had come to recognize that this should be changed to "Helping Others Realize THEIR Potential" and who knows how that will change before I run out of days? :)

OK... I will STFU now... sorry for the rambling.

I do appreciate all of you allowing me to share. Thank you.

That's a big step for you to admit that bro. I guess I'm just more of a realist.
 
I'm too self reliant. I don't need anybody.... not a good quality when in a relationship.

I'm too patient, too understanding, and too much of a listener. I always put others ahead of myself.


:sick: :sick: :sick:




Okay, seriously, there's internet addiction and chronic masturbation. But then if you had a work of art like this one you'd want to play with it all the time too. Oddly enough, those two habits don't overlap, I don't masturbate to internet porn.
