Personal Weaknesses

    What is your biggest weakness/character flaw?

    I lack patience. Waiting on queues, holding on a phonecall or people being late for a meeting all drive me mad. Hate time wasting etc.

    (Also have a weakness for white wine, dark chocolate & tall men but looking for serious answers here!)

    Stubborness...I will not back down an inch if I am in the right...no quarter given, none taken !

    Although...if I am in the wrong, I will always apologise...eventually :D

    I can't imagine that many of us REALLY want to divulge our truly biggest weakness! I'm not going to but I am prepared to say that I'm impatient, procrastinating, somewhat timid, mildly depressive and over-careful with money.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,127 ✭✭✭✭Leeg17


    I've an awful hard time saying no to people and so it's easy for people to take advantage of my nature.

    That and being quiet as fvck.

    Can I have your bank account details?


  • Registered Users Posts: 16,500 ✭✭✭✭DEFTLEFTHAND


    Lack of empathy for people. I have to pretend to be interested, In reality I struggle to care, I want to but I just don't, I get bored of people very quickly and completely switch off emotionally.

    I find it hard to not lose my temper with complete morons. If a bunch of scumbags shout abuse at me in the street I find it hard to ignore them. Usually this involves just shouting at them but there have been a couple of occasions where I've almost gotten in fights over it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,443 ✭✭✭Bipolar Joe


    I'm an overly emotional idiot.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,653 ✭✭✭Ghandee


    I think I'm better looking than I actually am, so have gotten rid of all the mirrors from the house.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,758 ✭✭✭✭TeddyTedson


    I severely lack concentration. Wish there was a cure.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,533 ✭✭✭Jester252


    I so good looking other people can't pay attention to what their doing

    As long as you don't fuck them over a wall you should be ok - even if they do piss on your shoes !


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,676 ✭✭✭✭Princess Consuela Bananahammock


    Same as everyone else on this forum - procrastination.

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.



  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 3,571 ✭✭✭newmug

    There is - Ritalin.

    Sometimes I lose my temper, esp. when hungover.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 699 ✭✭✭heathersonline


    Lack of willpower. I'm a slave to booze & smokes, marathon training keeps getting put back.

    I am punctual to an OCD degree and I get really wound up by people being late.

    If that's a weakness, we could do with a bit more weakness.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,191 ✭✭✭✭Pherekydes


    I don't have any. I'm always right. :pac:


  • Registered Users Posts: 340 ✭✭lookitsme


    my spelling is absoutly tirrible


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 672 ✭✭✭Battered Mars Bar


    I'm a perfectionist. Sometimes I'm too nice and I devote too much of my spare time to helping charities.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 21 ManTheSam


    Can't read clocks.


  • Registered Users Posts: 143 ✭✭EddyC15


    My upper body.

    But seriously, I'm terrible for remembering stuff. Someone could tell me that they're off to the shop in half an hour and I'd say "grand". Half an hour later and I'd be asking where they're off to.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,916 ✭✭✭shopaholic01


    I'm impatient, procrastinate, stubborn and psychotic with PMT.



    Edit: Another post reminded me of this - I HATE wearing knickers ............... the day I'm hit by a bus :o:o:o:o:o:o:o:o


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,037 ✭✭✭Nothingbetter2d


    i tend to be too nice for my own good.... i also tend to talk to much when i'm drunk :o

    I'm wearing brand new shoes. If anyone pisses on them they better make sure there are no walls nearby.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,916 ✭✭✭shopaholic01


    I forget to do up my front zip an awful lot when I'm going commando.

    Least of your problems ......................................


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,538 ✭✭✭flutterflye


    I have a hoard of physical, mental, and emotional problems.
    Time keeping.
    Concentration.
    Overly perfectionist.
    Intolerant of any noise, and most people.
    Ridiculously impatient.
    'Rude' apparently - I think I'm just blunt.
    Cigarettes and chocolate.
    I don't know - a bunch of things.
    I'm a total catch.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,037 ✭✭✭Nothingbetter2d

    i bet it hurts when u catch your foreskin in the zipper when u do remember to zip up :D

    He does that on purpose as a kind of lure. He soaks his Dick in whiskey and hangs it out there in the hopes that one day his perfect woman will simply drop before him and suck herself drunk.

    You have no idea how hard it was for me to resist the urge to say that:(. I'm glad it was said though, Deus is a legend!

    My jokes have no boundaries, which tends to disgust or insult alot of people.

    Some people don't see this as a weakness, but it really is - I care too much. For example, even if someone has treated me badly, I find it really hard to just walk away from them. I worry about them and even though I do recognise that they're not the nicest, I'll stay and think that hey, maybe they'll apologise. I generally just expect good in people.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,770 ✭✭✭Jen Pigs Fly


    I'm too forgiving and like to please people too much, I try hard not to be a pushover, but sometimes I will do something I don't want to do or give up doing something I want to do in order to make someone else happy.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 350 ✭✭mickgotsick

    Concentration camp? :pac:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,041 ✭✭✭cocoshovel


    I rarely have anything to contribute to conversations, and when I do I have to think about how I'm going to say it for ages.

    :eek:NO, not our Teddy:(:mad:, gas man as it is;)


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,573 ✭✭✭pragmatic1


    Loads:
    Impatient.

    Too sensitive. Even the smallest slight can annoy me for ages and if I don't have it out with someone I'll end up resenting them.

    Procrastination.

    Poor will power. I'm big on instant gratification.

    Too proud.

    I'd cut my nose off to spite my face and when my temper goes there are no boundaries.
