I wouldn’t consider being quiet a con, in fact I see it as a pro! But if it’s how you view yourself personally then ignore me!

In my view of me:

Pro
Loyal
Funny
Good at my job
Good with money

Con
Impatient
Forgetful
Increasingly lazy with age!

Grin araiwa!

Pros:
perfectionist- if you want a job done well ask me to do it.

Good morals- I can’t lie, I’ve never cheated, never stolen, straight down the line, you can trust me.

Good sense of humour: can make shitty situations seem less bad with humour, make my Dc laugh all the time, make my friends laugh when they’re down.

Cons:
Perfectionist: it’ll take me ages to do the job because I need everything to be “right”, I also mightn't start for a while because I have anxiety about not doing it right.

Good morals: I can be too black and white about things, struggle to see the shades of grey. Can be a bit hard on my Dc as a result.

Good sense of humour- that not everyone appreciates: Grin

Pros: funny, reliable, well off but not a dick about it, resilient, principles, excellent boundaries and self esteem, generous, forgiving, chilled.

Cons: arrogant, judgemental, bitchy, a little cold, not automatically empathetic.

I work on the empathy. I think my judgemental side feeds the boundaries and principles. In fact, most of the things up there are two sides of the same coin.

LyingWitchInTheWardrobe2726 · 24/05/2019 16:14

Pros: I can peel potatoes (carrots and parsnips) extremely quickly. I'm quite a good friend. Good sport mostly. Likes all animals and most people's children.

Cons: I like Boden. Arrogance. Pointedness. Forgiveness for me doesn't mean you're restored to your previous position, you're generally not. Tiresome a lot of the time. Not antisocial but generally not keen to develop friendships beyond acquaintance.
