    Not limited to one.

    Best : Forewardness ( much to my detriment) imo find it beneficial in being direct and honest as possible. No guess work. Friends know I wont sugarcoat.

    Worst : Impatience - at work the opposite is expected but I’m seething quite often lol


    Yours?

    My worst trait is Self-deprecation. Even now - I was gonna write what my best trait is, but an inner voice in the back of my head was like "no one cares, you fuckstick" so I had to think twice about what I wrote or even if I should. It's a miserable thing to put up with on a daily basis, doubting your every action and having little self esteem. Sometimes overcoming it is easy, sometimes it's the hardest thing in the world. But people like me somehow get by, it's not hopeless.

    My best trait would probably be my creativity. I don't know if that classifies as a trait. I've always been good at creating art, music, visuals and so on. Every time I showcase something I've made to friends or family, everyone is blown away by how I am able to come up with it, but to me it just comes naturally, and I never understand what the big deal is.
    I do what feels right and it usually turns out great. It takes a lot of time and patience, especially since I'm somewhat of a perfectionist (Not always; Sometimes perfection comes at the expense of passion and then it's all pointless.)
    All in all, it's the one thing I am proud of about myself. Something that is a certainty.

    Whilst showcasing your work do you struggle with self deprecation?

    Nah, there's no consequences there. No pressure.
    I just do what I love. It's like a safe haven for my personality when I'm in that state of mind.

    Best: My eyes, I can cook, I'm in shape, I have great taste, Athletic

    Worst: I'm impatient, My temper, Anxiety & Depression problems, Trust Issues

    It's probably more in both categories but I'm just summarizing

    Trust. Does this apply more with women?


    Trust is monumental. Tend to covet this in all aspects of my relationships / friendships.

    Impatience, temper, anxiety def go hand in hand. I too have a temper. Under most circumstances I can keep emotions in check. When I do blow up it’s usually short lived.

    Yea, it pretty much applies to Women, friends, and family

    It's all good though, I'm pretty much used to it

    That's good you got your anxiety under control, for the most part, I used to be able to do it, until recently

    You’re quite interesting. To overcome ( even temporarily) something as strong as self depreciation is quite a feat. You’ve two ends of a spectrum. Your creativity and what it brings forth will eventually overcome those feelings of self doubt in your everyday life.

    On a personal note.. over analyzing even the simplest things or concerning yourself with what others will think is futile. It only leads to doubtful actions in which leads to being angry at yourself.

    People are going to think/judge no matter what you do. Right or wrong. Outside of yourself and those you care for .. nothing else matters.

    Sorry to preach. Glad you posted :smile2:

    Pros: Irl I’m a good listener and connect well with people especially woman not just sexually.

    Cons: these people are usually emotionally damaged and I can’t seem to form bonds with emotionally stable people. They bore me and I bore them

    Side note: I consider myself emotionally stable. I don’t have anger or anxiety issues or some haunting childhood trauma

    My best traits:
    Resilience and commitment to a goal

    My worst traits:
    I say too much what I think people want to hear rather than what I actually think. Try to avoid conflict too much.

    That's too bad. I was going to post a very pertinent article to help you reconsider your worst trait, but then I realized you're probably not being completely honest about your best trait since intellectual curiosity is a real rarity these days. So never mind. Good luck with that buddy.

    Hypochondriac

    Legit .. what was it that convinced you without a doubt?

    Do you obsess easily over the simplest things? Also, do you consult doctors or self diagnose via online?

    Being a nurse you run into this quite a bit. Quite curious.
