For partnered people, what would your partner say is YOUR biggest flaw?

Mine is that I stay up too late and he finds it very annoying.
He also says it's hard to figure out what I'm really thinking because I'm "vague". I don't try to be vague, just as diplomatic as possible (for good reason I might add). I probably cry too easily too which men loath really.

So, what's yours? :D

And that I tend to let others take advantage of me, sometimes.

He's right on both counts.

I need my oil changed. Will you pick up my dry cleaning? Fill up the tank with gasoline while you're out, please.

I'm not touching those tightie-whities of yours, Mister.

:-)

I mean I am a Libra... that kind of spells it out for you. But not for him... he says it is indecisivness.

(I'm a Libra, too. Can you tell?)

I get very animated and intense when it comes to emotions. When I'm even slightly angry I come across as VERY angry. When I'm slightly sad I come across as depressed. And even when I'm sort of happy I come across as ecstatic. Even when I'm not really any of those things. I'm just an overly expressive person. I tend to internalize everything and sometimes that's hard for my wife to deal with.

more like a guy than a girl...i.e. I detest most housecleaning, I sit with my hand in my pants, belch at will, etc. :D

No really, I'm sure it'd have to be the ADD related 'piles' of crap that seem to accumulate everywhere I go. Clothes, mail, whatever. I don't mind cleaning (scrubbing, mopping, vacuuming, etc) but my organizational skills are on par with a 3 yr old. :cry:

...a gigantic penis, from what I hear.

green is not your color. ;)

:P

...but I'm stacked like a brick shithouse.

Okay, more like a marshmallow shithouse.

When it comes to organization, I'd give myself a B-. Not bad, but room for improvement. But, in that regard, I'm definitely the chief organizer most of the time.

but she has to do everything right now!

I tell her my people are sit on the porch and sip tea kinda people...

things get done when they get done and the world won't fall apart until then.

But it could easily be my distance in dealing with heavy emotional issues...

I don't blame you on that one especially if you know the truth is going to hurt them. That's how it was for me for a long, long time.

My wife is constantly complaining about the amount of time I spend at the computer. :-)

That, and that I'm too introverted.

Definitely too much time on the computer and I am somewhat introverted in real life, but he's probably more so, but then again on those Myers-Briggs type things I'm an INFP and he's an ESTJ, so in his thinking process, he's an extrovert anyway, so I don't know. :shrug:

I'm sure that by then, I'll be able to provide a looooong list.

:D

Perhaps just a short list. ;-)

...that I am too good of a lover, and if we ever break up that I have ruined her for other men.

:nopity:

:evilgrin:

... all 10 inches of it. ;)

and a bit of a control freak...hee hee...
but after ten years of marriage we are reaching that happy place ...we know when to not irritate the other...

:7 :hi:

that my grammer and spelling sucks, I'm very defensive, watch to many sports, take to many chemicals (meds for chronic pain, but I did gave up daily use of mary jane though), I'm to short and make her feel to like an Amazon woman, I complain about her being on DU all the time, and to round it out, I'm not sexually adventurous enough (it always hard to figure out what she wants because when I make advances she not in the mood and when we are having sex I don't try to push things to far so as not to ruin the moment). I think that sums thing up, but I'm sure there are a host of other things that I'm not bright enough to figure out.:dunce: :hurts: :spank: :nopity:

And decision making issues. Oh, and the fact that I live outside the Beltway in the 'burbs. :shrug:

he considers that a dreadful fault.

Except for the first 9-12 months after I had babies, it slowed down (I sort of liked the freedom from the curse of it really during those times), but otherwise, things don't always mesh, but it's probably more of a quality vs. quantity thing. He'd be fine with every day, but our tastes are sometimes different.

We are compatible on just about every other issue.

...who tends to say very innappropriate things sometimes.

She hates to watch me cook. I'll take something out of the refrigerator, sniff it, look at it sideways, and say "I think this is okay" and put it in the pan. She'll say, "Haven't you ever heard 'when in doubt, throw it out.' and I'll say, "But I think it's okay. I wouldn't be putting it in the pan if I didn't think it was okay." She'll say, "I'm not eating that." Then I'll get irritated and say "Fine! You make dinner!" She'll say, "You said you were making dinner." I'll say, "I WAS MAKING DINNER!"

We used to get in huge fights about little stuff like that, but now we save our huge fights for the really big stuff, mostly when I do something or say something she finds incomprehensibly insensitive.

He won't say those words, but it's hard not to say the wrong thing sometimes (even simple questions can cause surprisingly big reactions). I just try to be as cordial as I can and realize that sometimes I suppose I can be insensitive, but sometimes others can be a little hypersensitive at times too and that's more about them than me.

I'm practically perfect in every way. :P

:yourock:

Frankly, I'm VERY flawed.

I'm just lucky that he hasn't seemed to notice yet. :-)

She tends to be late for things. :)

but I think he's a big poopie pants! :P

You're perfect. :loveya:

K I S S I N G!

GrovelBot has special abilities. Sorry Dookus, he says he's going strait again for awhile.

blahblahblahblahblahblahblah

I talk too much.
(I know I talk too much.)

But...I've mostly lost my voice from this cold I've been nursing. So he'll have to find some other flaw to get annoyed by.

i am almost embarrassed to say,
i am not, i repeat NOT, tooting my own horn
but my SO would say my biggest flaw would be my giving nature,
my passion to help people/save the world.

You are one of the nicest person here on DU. :)

that is very sweet of you.
i have the same view of you as you have of me,
one of the nicest people here. :-)

LOL! I am sure Sapph could fill a thread with my flaws. LOL

Anyway, my biggest would have to be not being able to explain myself properly. But then, when communication with your partner is 99% of the time done online, it can be very hard to explain yourself properly over IM's.
