In the spirit of the "bragging" thread.....what to you fail at?

Is there anything that you completely suck at no matter how hard you try?

What character flaws do you see in yourself that you would like to change?

In what way would you like to improve yourself?

I think you get the idea.



Personally I can be a little over judgmental at times. Sometime I catch myself looking down on others who I feel are inferior to me. That by my own definition makes me an asshole, and I am making every effort to correct that quality in myself.

I also have a tendency to dismiss someone if I have to repeatedly explain something to them. I am patient in most areas of life, I just get impatient with slow learners, or people who have trouble grasping a new concept. I really need to work on that.

I love bud way too much, and when I have it in my possession, I end up smoking all day ever day. Ive learned not to buy any for myself, I just throw in with a friend of mine, so I probably only smoke every few months. However I went a few years being high all day every day, and I'm not to happy with myself for it.

Even though I enjoy it, Im terrible at math. I'm proud to be considered ADHD, mine is the superior "mind set" for many of the things I involve myself in, however focusing on math for some reason is all but impossible for me. Though I continue to try

I'm a fucking mess. I make a conscious effort to go around and pick up behind myself every day or two so that no one else has to deal with it, but I really wish I would just put things away when I am done with them.

My father died, and I removed my mother from my life years ago. As a result I really dont have any family, and I havent talked to my half brother or sister in at least 9 years. I'm kind of pissed at myself for that.

I snore like a hibernating bear, and move around allot, making it  impossible for me to actually sleep with anyone.

I'm horrible at relationships, because I'm not very emotional. (thats an understatement to say the least)

Alright, thats me, I could keep going on, but thats enough. What about you?

EDIT: I also fail at.....

You failed to understand what this thread was about.

well, is that why you have trouble with relationships?

Most peoples are controlled by their impulsive emotional reactions. I am as well, but not anywhere near the degree that most people are. I notice allot of the silly subconscious triggers that drive the people around me. I notice them in myself sometimes too. Anyway I have trouble dealing with what I consider to be illogical useless nonsense, and the people I have dated tend to think I'm an asshole because of it. I dont ever get mad and yell over petty disagreements, that really pisses allot of women off. Fighting and then making up is just another part of our silly primate bonding games......or at least thats how it seems to me.

I dont fall in love. I feel connection, and I can certainly say that I love a great many people, but I dont feel that goofy addicting chemical bond that people call falling in love. Ive also found that I cant seem to get addicted to anything. For instance I smoked cigarettes for several years, and just quite one day on a whim without having to deal with any kind of with-drawl or cravings. I'm willing to bet there is a correlation.

Its just how my brain works, my "insight" into how and why things work help me in some situation, (BS business politics) and hurt me in others. (participating in a socially "normal" interpersonal relationship)

I just had a long discussion with a friend of mine who doesnt understand his problem with women. Hes getting ready to dump this attractive, fun, interesting girlfriend who buys him all kinds of stuff because "its to easy". He says their isnt a challenge. Its silly unevolved primate behavior such as this that I see in everyone. Hes seeking interpersonal conflict in order to avoid looking at the aspects of himself that he doesnt like.(there's allot, but I'm not going into it) I dont understand why most people dont see these obvious patterns.

Its not like I'm unhappy though, I'm actually pretty content, and life is going great at the moment. I probably just need to find a girl, or guy who knows(though I cant really see that happening) who can make me feel dumb. Or possibly just a crazy fat ghetto black chick, at least thats always fun.

>>>>>and a side thought here before I post this, living in a college town, and working for the university means I'm around immature 19ish year old girls most of the time. I'm sure thats not exactly helping my cause. This  is not exactly the environment I enjoy the most.

EDIT: And I forgot to directly address what you were saying. I dont toke anymore. I havent smoked regularly in quite some time, and not at all in several months. Im also not apathetic, though I do see it in many other people. Its not that Im indifferent, or uninterested, my passions just happen to be different. I still get excited about others, I just cant help but see through the games we all play with each other.....or at least some of them. My psychologist calls it depersonalization but she also calls "adhd" autism so I'm not to concerned with her observations, or lack there of. I work mostly in medical supply, and I get all of the pharmaceutical mail outs, and promotional packages that she does. Its pretty funny to get something in the mail for one of our  providers and then hear her spout the exact same nonsense nearly line for line a month or so latter. Anyone can memorize someone else's ideas, the world needs more original thinkers......Thats why I come to the shroomery though.

Overall, I think I need to be able to better adress, what I need to work on better. I'm starting to feel like there is something within me, a primal constituent of my life that needs to be worked on, but then again could this be a good thing, just meaning I do have quite a good grasp on life and am just thinking irrationally?

Wow i just contradicted myself, godamn DOUBLETHINK (Orwell, 1984)

:sonfused:I would like someone to say something about what I just wrote, i would appreciate some feeback.
