We Won't Call Them Flaws

...but what are those quirky things about yourself that you know you really should change because they aren't the healthiest?

I'll go first:

I can be obsessive to the point of mental exhaustion
I can be excessive (I think the Lay's potato chips motto "You can't just have one" was created of with me in mind)
I can be controlling/manipulative, but it's usually for everyone's own good anyway
I am very passionate, which can come off as aggressive outside of the bedroom
I won't shy away from learning more about things consider dark/taboo. A particular fetish may not be my cup of tea, but the darker it is I want to know about it--just because I am curious, especially if "he" likes it. Why, why, why, why, WHY?
Very little shocks me, which some have interpret that to mean I am detached. Eh?

So what are your little "quirks"

....perhaps I should also add I have a hot temper :

obsessive to the point of mental exhaustion

excessive

controlling/manipulative

passionate, which can come off as aggressive

dark/taboo

curious





Those ^^^^ aren't quirks, nor flaws ... they are attributes of the natural Scorpion state of being.

I guess that's why nobody answered this thread ... becauase they all possess the same qualities, so there's nothing unique to add.

Touche. Eh, it was a post that came out of another thread, but I wasn't interested in hijacking the thread as many like to do. Better to start a new thread than add to the chaos that I've seen occur. If people contribute or not I am okay with it either way.

*Touch?.

one of my quirks?

I'm a clutz. Especially when I'm nervous.

I will trip over my own feet or imaginary things, put my foot in my mouth with words, spill food or beverages on my shirt, spill food or beverages on you, speak in an unknown language....the list is endless 😄

oh yeah...that's me too, lol. it's excrutiating.

okay


To add, though not a Scorpio ..... I'm constantly doing two things, like a million times a day (it seems like) ..


1. licking my lips

2. washing my hands


I would consider those quirks

This ^^^^

And I can be paranoid/jealous. And clingy/codependent.
I'm aloof with strangers, and very passionate.. so lots of people are scared of me/think I'm a bitch until they get to know me. (and the big sappy puppy dog I really am)
My emotions rule me, above and beyond logic. So sometimes I get myself in trouble by acting rashly. I have a hard time detaching and taking a step back before reacting (REALLY working on this, been making some major improvements tho)

Yeah I've got all the bad traits of scorpio, along with the good. Work on myself daily to get over these things.

..and I definitely want to take this exercise elsewhere. This is good for us. 😉

I'm perfect.

I need you in my life.

@ DazedScorp A large state I hope. Help keep that growth population down.

I guess in keeping with PA's comment here's a "real" quirk I guess: I refuse to eat anything without washing my hands first, even if I am starving. No hand sanitizers, I need soap and water. I know, one might think "well isn't that good for basic hygiene? That's not really a quirk girlfriend" True, but I can take it too far. There have been times when I've been out all day, starving and spent at least 30 minutes looking for a place that had a restroom (with paper towels, not a blow dryer so I can use the paper towel to turn off the tap and open the door) just so I could wash my hands before eating.

Oh hell yeah !!!

I won't touch any part of my body without washing my hands, I wash my hands before going to the bathroom ... I won't even get dressed, or brush my hair, or do ANYTHING without washing first.

And I hate santizer ... it dries my hands out, which causes me to have to wash them again.


Also, lotion, I'm quirky about ... I will use Oil of Olay ONLY.

And, I won't go out into the sun .. if it's sunny day and I have to go to my car, I cover up, or use an umbrella. I shield the window in the car when driving so the sun can't hit my left arm (drives on right side of road, so, it's left arm).


Indeed, I have numerous little ticks
