What is your biggest flaw? (GTKY)
Hopeful912

Curious as to what you think your biggest character flaw is.
I have a hard time expressing my feelings when I'm upset. I get emotional easily, so I tend to keep things inside and sometimes expect people to know what I'm feeling.

Re: What is your biggest flaw? (GTKY)
I am a people pleaser.
I have trouble deciding what I prefer for dinner most nights all because I would rather my DH get what he wants. while he is doing the same thing for me. Some nights we just eat chips and hummus, lol.
I worry to much about what people think then over analyze stuff.
DH tells me to stop caring so much. I've always been that way and trying to stop. Im proud that when it came to planning my wedding I did what I wanted without a thought of what anyone else thought!

I agree. I sure do have more than one. The one that I mentioned is just the one that bothers me the most. But yes...many others. And among them, the first two that you mentioned are at the top of my flaw list as well. As well as being a terrible decision maker, holding grudges, and not calling family as often as I should.

My biggest flaw would be a tie between the amount of crankiness I display (and can not fight) when I'm tired and/or hungry, and the fact that once I don't like someone, there is a very small chance I will ever give them another chance for me to like them. I'm an a$shole; at least I can admit that!
I'm the same way!

Me too, me too and me too. Man, there really are a lot of things wrong with me! lol
I have control issues. If I feel like I'm not in control in some situations I start feeling very irritable and cranky. This has gotten better after having a child because sometimes with a toddler you just aren't the one calling the shots. Lol
I'm also a people pleaser and hate to make anyone mad at me. Which is ridiculous and I'm trying to get better at it.

I am the same way, I worry way too much what people think, and agonize over the smallest action and worry that someone took it the wrong way or thought badly of it. But I too got much more assertive when it came to my wedding....I didn't have a lot of push from people becauuse both my family and my inlaws (most of them) are great, but there was still stuff I made sure to do the way I wanted rather than cave because I thought someone else would do it differently.

THIS!! Im the same way! I can NEVER make up my mind on small details. AMEN for hearing there is more people out there and Im not the only one that cares to much what others think!
I agree with both of these 100%. My family teases me over my planning and organization skills and call me Martha Stewart. Whhhatever
And same with the forgive and forget side of things...my MIL caused same major drama with our wedding and I am still having a really hard time "getting over" it and really don't enjoy being around her.

My family calls me "Camp Councilor" for this same reason especially when planning a trip
I don't stand up for myself enough and therefore often get walked all over.
I am terribly shy. I suppose that goes hand in hand with the above comment.
I over analyze pretty much everything in life.

I am the Master Procrastinator. I just can't help myself. I could have 3 weeks to do something (such as write progress notes) and I will wait til the very last second possible to do it with no good reason.
and this...once you cross me it takes a heck of a lot to get back on the good side (if ever)
Wow- where do I even begin
9.6.12 - Crazy J entered the world
4.30.14 - Sweet Angel Micah John lost to T18 at 7 months pregnant
2.8.16 Miscarriage at 6 weeks
4.30.16 BFP *stick baby stick*
I am too nice to people. Even after I get mad (mostly at myself) because people don't appreciate the things I do, I keep doing it.
I am very hard on myself. I frequently don't understand why DH is with me.
I am very impatient.
I spend way too much money all the time on stuff I usually don't need but "have" to have.
I nag my DH too much. I let things build and then unload on him all at once. Totally not fair.
I am really hard on myself about it.

I can never decide WFD either!
I have a hard time saying no, so I end up letting my coworkers/family take advantage of me.
Also, I hate inconveniencing people, so I'm always hesitant to call people if I think they're busy. I would rather do something I'm not comfortable with rather than ask someone else to make things easier or change.
Oh, and I have to be perfect or die trying.
I gossip way too much (can't keep a secret either)
Way too sensitive. I will over analyze everything anyone says to me.
After almost 2 years of TTC and fertility treatments we got a surprise BFP in May 2013
*BFP 10/15/11*CP 10/18/11*
*BFP 2/1/12*EDD 10/14/12*natural M/C 2/24/12 7w*
*BFP 5/2/12*E born 01/03/13 (her due date)
THIS! I absolutely HATE this about myself. Especially when I'm mad or frustrated and cry. UGH! I feel like an idiot.

Cautiously expecting 12/02/16
I do this too, my DH calls it drama seeking
Me too!
Intellectually I know that; the reality is I feel like a failure since I don't think what I went through warrants it. I was pretty much in denial about it for a few years until I sat down and looked over the list and realized 'Ah. I see. That would be me'. I am very fortunate to be with someone who is extremely understanding about it and for having a very limited trigger range.
