    I talked really fast. I think really fast and it works at work because they pay me to speak, but I’ve embraced it and I learned to slow down and talk really really slow when I need to, but it’s really hard for me but I’ve embraced the speed.

    I have a compulsion to make a joke out of everything, even at the worst possible times.

    I care about everyone else too much. Even random strangers that I don’t know at all. Even people who’ve hurt me, whether intentional or not. Everyone is human after all, we all deserve someone who cares.

    I play devil’s advocate a little too much and always advice people to take the hard way rather than empathising with them and understanding that they need to vent. Working on this though…

    I have a scar from childhood that seem scary to a lot of people, but i love it and feel that it is part of me and what i went through. Absolutely love my scar and carry it with pride.

    Being laid back. It annoys my wife that apparently, “If I was any more laid back, I’d be sleeping.”

    I also do have a cracking scar on my shoulder.

    I am greedy, according to the Bible it’s a terrible sin (luckily I am an agnostic). Guess what? Money makes shit happen. Money can’t buy happiness is bullshit too. I fully embrace I like money and it makes my life better

    That I don’t do things with the intention of perfection

    Most people don’t see it as a flaw but being too charismatic has always landed me into some shit.

    I don’t even know if consider it flaw myself, but others do, but I never feel guilty for being unproductive, taking time off, enjoying my life, resting, etc.. I still work and take care of stuff, but I absolutely refuse to be busy just for the sake of being busy.

    BPD and addiction. Acceptance and recovery baby.

    I’m not impressed by luxury and glamour. From the sidelines, it may look like I’m cheap bastard, but if anyone bothers to look into it, they soon realize it’s more about me disliking pretentiousness.

    My forgetfulness

  20. Morlock43 Avatar

    Laziness.

    Makes me better at my job as I find ways not to do the same thing twice or I find ways to simplify what I need to do.

    Also means my life is a lot more chilled and I can coast along

    Not falling in lockstep with my group. If the opposing side is right and my side is wrong, I want to know and embrace it. I have always preferred objectivity to loyalty.

    I dont have a flaw im flawless 🙃

    My knack for overanalyzing everything… is a blessing and a curse that I am learning to manage.

    I can’t let go of people even if they hurt me time and again.

    My default when things get too serious is comedy.

    I had an ex that told me at the start of our relationship that she tried to end things with a lot of pain meds. All I could say was “were your cramps that bad?” I immediately felt horrible but she laughed so hard. We dated for a few years luckily she had as twisted sense of humor as me.

    A female here. I’ve been underweight since birth. I used to feel insecure about it, but now I feel proud that despite me being small, I stayed away from my home for 2 yrs and lived my dream life. I travelled to multiple states alone and I don’t even speak the language of these states. I did a lot of networking with wonderful ppl during these two years. Me being small didn’t matter anywhere at all.

    I consider it a personal win.

    That i am too sensitive.. and this harmed me a-lot , i got bullied, i got hurt many times but i learned that some people flaws can be seen as something good for others and for me as much as i am sensitive when i am sad i am too sensitive when i am happy as well and i appreciate that i still have feelings after life was this tough , being sensitive makes you understand and empathize with others that need empathy too , and it always carries me to be my real self , i hate playing games i hate half feelings and half efforts i go all they way when i love so i learned how to embrace this ( flaw ) as considered by some people i met

    I am EXTREMELY emotional and I love too much

    Not taking anything seriously and making jokes about everything. I’ve actually been quite successful with this when working with customers. I’ve been told I bring a level of confidence to my meetings, which in turn makes the customers feel more comfortable. I’ll take that!

    I have a speech impediment. My stutter is pretty obvious. I used to hate it and it wrecked my confidence for years….until I learned to love myself.

    Now I use my stutter as a tool. It’s been surprisingly effective when meeting women (Ladies why do you love men with a stutter so much?) and in Canada a stutter is considered a disability so I save thousands of years on my taxes because of it.

    I also used it for getting ahead in work because hey we gave the guy with a disability a promotion we are cultured!

    Avoiding throwing things away. Includes also collecting things others have thrown away for my own use.

    My mom especially hates this, but it literally saves me a lot of money. I also take great pride in being able to repair my own clothes for example.

    Not answering my phone and messages.

    Communications are for my convenience, not a tool for people to find me 24/7.

    Other than the wife, everyone else lies in a continum between “hmmmm, shmaybe” to “oh hell no” when answering the phone or replying to a message.

    (And yes, that includes work-related stuff.)

    Among my friends & family, my (lack of) communication habits are a running joke, which I embrace wholeheartedly & own with a measure of pride.

    Emotionally detach very easily even with people i am so close with ! Sometimes i get very concerned !

  34. Ok_Custard6832 Avatar

    I’m very “lone wolf” and independent-minded, I don’t mind being alone and actually prefer it, sometimes to my own detriment but I’d rather be this way than hyper-dependent on other people or people’s company.

  35. AllIWantisAdy Avatar

    That I’m “hard to get to know to”. If I wanted you to know my life story I’d tell it to you. Plus I can piss people off without looking like a huge ass.

  36. BMoney8600 Avatar

    I always try to see the best in people. My friends and I are all like that. Of course, we have had “falling outs” with people in our friend group but it was necessary.

  37. syndreamer Avatar

    Not texting a whole lot or answering messages. I’m a “if you need me, just call me” kind of guy.

  38. festival-papi Avatar

    It’s almost effortless for me to sever emotional ties whether it’s dating, friendships, relatives, work, etc. I’ve never felt the need to “go along to get along” or stick around people who I didn’t like for whatever reason.

    I’m the family cryptid. I rarely respond, see the family group chats and show up to family events but am always aware of what’s happening. I paradoxically double and triple text when I do, i usually have a thought then a couple side thoughts I think will be useful information for the other person to know

  40. JJQuantum Avatar

    I’m stubborn. Like, really stubborn. I am only stubborn about things about which I’m educated though. For anything else I try not to speak at all.

    Apparently I’m an asshole because I have standards and refuse to date average women… or so I’ve been told.

    I’m an asshole in everyone’s story. I’m always the devil, and I’m perfectly fine with that.
