How would you describe yourself briefly.

It is always easy to tell about others and give complete details about thier traits and behaviour etc. We enjoy telling about others and giving our opinion about their positive and negative traits. But If you are asked to describe yourself in brief, how would you 'describe' yourself. Do you feel it is easier to 'describe' oneself or it is a difficult task? You can choose to describe yourself in 5-10 sentences so that those who do not have any idea about you and do not know you, may just get an idea about you. Longer discriptions are also welcome, which will depend how much you want to write about you. So you are welcome here to 'describe' yourself, please start it, as soon as you finish reading this....LOL! Thanks in advance.

Hello Dpk........Well if I have to describe myself ,all I can say is that I am a no nonsense person,and is straight forward and honest too.....I enjoy the company of my friends ,and when tney start discussions like this,I end up having the ggggitters.....Well the fact is Dpk,I am scared to reveal all my positive and negative traits to you...I am scared that you will find some of them not to your liking and may act as a disqualification,and I will end up being removed from your friends list...Much as you have assured me that this will not happen,I still need more of them at this juncture.....Also you have failed to project your positive and negative traits and this is a most ungentlemanly thing to do,Dpk.....

I also ensorese your own self-assessment that you are a straight forward and honest person. Please do not be in jitters, there is no need to, be comfortable and calm. I can guague your mood, when you wrote your reply....LOL!
I fail to understand how could you decide yourself that you have some negative traits and those traits may not be of my liking. I t is possible, I may be having same (negative) traits and moreover we all are mix of positive & negative traits, so we have to accept our frineds, as they actually are. I myself is full of negative traits and if I narrate those traits to you, and if they are not of your liking, will you 'delete' me? (I do not think so that you could so harsh.......!!!)
I assure you that your traits will have no bearing on our 'friendship', and there is no question of ever deleting you from the list.
As far as my traits are concerned, for the time being, I've reserved that right with myself, being the host of the discussion. However, will surely write about it soon.
Many thanks for joining and making the discussion spicy.

About me?? well
I eat when I am bored
I am vulnerable to believing in lies
I am hoping one day, I wont need a fake smile
I live by quotes that explain exactly what I am going through
I have drama and memories
Support me or not, I ‘ll be someone, someday
Make me laugh and i will love you forever and eternally
The beach at night – my fave
Bring me flowers, I will be ever yours
I love greens, I love chips but no popcorns for me
Love to lie under the stars
I love kids, cuddling them such an amazing thing
Buy me honesty and i will be your best friend
I do not eat the ends of breads and french fries
Call me odd
You can call me spontaneous and random
I am not sick, reason with me, do not help me
Have faith in me
I hate when relationships suck.
I miss my sisters and family
I DONT UNDERSTAND WHY WE ALL JUST CANT GET ALONG. LETS DANCE THE DARK AWAY……

OH! What a beautiful poetic way to 'describe' yourself.
You only eat when you are bored, otherwise, you do not feed yourself......LOL!
It appears that it is very easy to win your love, because all one need is to bring some beautiful and lovely flowers for you and some spicy chips for you. You are best friend of those, who are honest, I can say with conviction that I am 'honest', so I deserve to be one of your best friends........LOL!
Have faith - all (of us) can get along well, with some minor adjustments.

Riya! Very well described. I appreciate your confession.
Yes, you are right, one get nothing in criticizing others. An emotional and sensitive person (as you have said about yourself) would definitely crave for attention. Great to know that you are a person caring. The point which I liked most is and I also say the same to others - "Please accept me, as I am".
Thanks for describing yourself.

Nice discussion Deepak, but you have not described yourself, so you better do it.
About me I think I am a very confused person, who really does not know what she wants from her life. I have lot of inferiority complex and always underestimate myself....I am honest and cannot live with guilty conscious...., I can never hurt people as I know what is the pain when one is hurt....I am not happy with my looks...., and I think I was not matured at the right time and so now since time has gone, I have buried my desires and now my family is my greatest concern and I think I kill myself worrying about them....now my only wish is that my children settle down happily in life and that me and my hubby die healthy and not become burden on our children. so this is me.....now you know....

Hello Aps....tut ..tut......You seem to be a very modest person and has not correctly described yourself,dear......You have a heart of gold,and we all love you even though we have never met.Well just because you do not have the looks op Aiswarya Rai or Susmitha sen for that matter,you should not consider yourself an inferior being.Winning a beauty contest is not the only criteria for determining the looks of a person.........Well dear now you are making me feel inferior too..I have always considered myself good looking,but now I am not sure..I have never won any beauty contest,and you are making me feel inferior and guilty.........
And dear you have not buried any of your desires...You have a wonderful family and now you are too busy taking care of them and fussing over them that you have no time to think of yourself..Is this not the truth.......???....We have been good mothers and wives Aps,and now our happiness lies in the happiness of our children....
And this Dpk has asked us to reveal about us and has not revealed any of his traits....I have given him a befitting reply ........

Hello deepak! Another good post. To be honest with you, I have a hard time describing myself. I don't know what to say either. I can't say I am a real good person because I committed mistakes sometimes but I am not also that real bad. I tried to be good but maybe I hurt somebody unintentionally. Well, I mean, I don't kill, I don't steal and I don't backstab somebody. To make it short, "I'm only human"

Let me describe you, if you allow me!
First of all you are a genuine and honest person, who is very modest and believe me, modesty is one of the best positive traits. Everyone of us commits mistakes, nothing bad in that. I too commit mistakes, quite often. As per my assessment, during a brief interaction with you - You are a wonderful friend and a nice human being.I am very sure that You have many positive traits and you know how to win hearts. As I said earlier, You are very caring and responsive. Am blessed to have a friend like you.

We are pur vegetarian/tea-totallar/non smoker and above all God fearing persons. We believe in giving more that taking . My pass time is knitting and recently started this, here I enjoy global company. I have roamed our country from head to foot and including got chance to visit US once in 2003.

Hello! My friend maygodblessu!
Before I comment on your response, here are my description:
Let me begin with my positive traits. I am very honest and loyal person, who does not believe in betraying anyone. I am very positive and optimistic and I look at the bright side. I love to share joys and sorrows of others. I am a learner and curious person, who feels that every day is a new day for learning something. I cannot hurt anyone, if even sometimes such thoughts come in mind, I cannot practically do it, at any cost. I love to help others, to my the best of my ability.
I am 'writer' and love to write and express myself through 'writings'. I am a nature lover and love nature. I am down to earth person and do not believe in ostentatiousness. I believe in modesty. I love to reamin in peace, do not wish to enter into arguments and quarrels. I am very much predictable person.
On the negative side - I am a sensitive person and sometimes thinks too much about an issue. I am a slow learner and it takes time for me to understand things and a person. I am gullible and vulnerable. I am an introvert and lazy person, sometimes.
That pretty much sums it up. That's me.
-----------
It is wonderful to know about you in details and the high point which I appreciate and which touched me that you believe in 'giving' rather than 'accepting'. You have been to a US, it is nice to know. You are God fearing, that also goest to your credit. Hope you would write more about you, as you wanted me to write something on myself, which I have written above.
Many thanks for joining and sharing.

Hello my friend maygodblessu44 Ji,
I was incidentally on-line, therefore, I responded qickly.
Thanks for your kind words about me. I am not an extra ordinary person, I am a simple person. Yes, it is true that I'll let down the one, who is with me and who relies me.
It is indeed heartening to know that you still have desire to improve upon and to learn. Hats off to you, for your never-say-die spirit.
The more you and I interact with each other, I may come to know about your other (negative) traits, if at all, you have any. If it comes to my notice, I'll surely tell you something about that and how to get rid of your so called negative traits.

Welcome to my discussion! Sudipta!
You are most welcome to give details about your physical appearance also, there is no bar, I'll take it in the right sprit...........LOL!
After reading the 'adjectives' which you have used for yourself, I felt that you took the help of dictionary and described yourself alphabetically.........LOL! Quite a unique idea. I appreciate it.
Let me comment on your traits, as per my own assessment.
I did not find you Childish, Crabby or contradictory in any of my discussion. Atleast you do not 'contradict' yourself in my discussion.
You are an 'honest' person, because you have the courage to highlight all your positive and negative traits.
All in all, I have found you full of positive traits and have not noticed any single negative trait, which you have mentioned in your response.
Many thanks for being candid.

OOh you're looking for a lot more honesty here than some might be prepared to give pal! As for me, let's see:
I'm a caring person, I can't bear to hurt someone's feelings so will be very diplomatic even if it means having to tell small lies or avoiding the truth, e.g. a friend has a very dramatic change of hairstyle which I think looks awful - whilst some might exclaim in dismay "oh gosh, what have you done to your hair" whereas I would just keep quiet and if they asked me what I thought I would say with a smile "As long as you're happy with it, that's what matters. It's very different to what I'm used to seeing you as but I'm sure I'll get used to it"! Some might think it's better to be honest but I know from years of experience that people sometimes might make a very dramatic change to their look to make a point to others, maybe they've just split up with a long term partner or spouse or maybe they're having a mid life crisis... But I feel it's not my place to make someone feel down and I would be mortified if I hurt a friend's feelings and/or knocked their confidence.
I'm generally quite a chilled out person and don't believe in judging people for their lifestyle choices or career paths - be they gay or straight or celibate or a lawyer or a toilet cleaner or bailiff. The only time I judge people is when they break the law or do dishonest things, then - I don't have time for them.
I can be quite bad tempered - to my husband's dismay! This is something that has got worse with age - but funnily enough my friends don't see me as bad tempered at all. I only show my temper to my immediate family members, I guess I get that from my dad! It's not nice to have a bad temper and I make a concerted effort to count to ten and not lose it!
I know that I have an addictive personality. I started smoking when I was 16 and have smoked ever since although in the last year I've cut down to just 2 or 3 cigs a day and hope to cut that down even more till I can give them up completely. I'm addicted to the internet. I don't buy things like playstation or xboxes because I know I'll get addicted to them. I used to be addicted to online pc games but when I started dreaming of playing cards stacked up in front of me like Solitaire, I knew I had to quit LOL! I know I have this personality trait so I have to keep a check on it!
I don't like conflict - I really hate confrontations. I don't argue with people at all - if I feel someone is trying to force their opinion on me, I will back off and leave them talking to themselves. In the workplace I am known to be very accommodating but I can make my point without getting worked up about it. I think this is a good aspect of my personality...
I also have a very optimistic view of life. I am easily pleased and am not always wishing I had this that or the other item or wishing that I looked like a model or had millions of £s to live on. I am happy with my job, my family life and my social life generally and I don't crave to own a big mansion or expensive car or flashy possessions. I do not believe the grass is greener on the other side :)
Ok I think I've gone on for long enough now :)

OH! What a detailed analysis!!! Full marks to you for being so candid and so forthcoming. Many thanks for describing yourself so wonderfully.
I know you are caring. You are diplomatic, this I did not know.
As far as your bad temper is concerned, atleast you know that you have a short temper and you can deal with this issue accordingly. I believe that you are a nice person and you are 'accomoding'.
This I did not know that you are addicted to internet.......LOL!
I can also gauge that you are an 'honest' person, because you showed the courage to described youself in such a great length and narrated both your positive and negative traits.
All in all, I have found you that you are full of positive traits and you are a great friend, who knows how to be a friend's friend. It is always great fun to interact with you and to go through your thoughtful and considered responses/comments.
Many thanks for being so candid.

You truly deserved all the good comments, that is why I wrote it.
Yes, that is sure that you can always rely on my to good to your ego, but let me add here that whatever I wrote, I wrote honesty and with due sincerity, the words came straight from my heart, no exaggeration or flattering.
Your assessment about people's behaviour on website appears absolutely correct to me because there are many people who do not reveal their true identity and may try to fool you, with their moves. Therefore, it becomes difficult for an honest person to gain somebody's confidence on a site, because the other person does not know, how 'honest' is the person.
It is really great to know that you could get some long lasting friends, whom you could meet in person too.
I wish that others should read your reply/comments here on this discussion, so that they could learn a lesson.

Thanks for your lovely comment on my response pal. I can always rely on you to do good for my ego hehe! I have been around on the internet for quite a while now and have come across some awful people - well they might not be awful in real life but there sure are awful on here - bullying others and making them feel small - I've come across girls (or they might have been boys) who pretend to have romantic feelings towards boys and make the guy fall in love with them and they "break" their hearts by "dumping" (and vice versa when a boy did this to a girl) - I've seen people in chat rooms being the victims of street wise people and share their photos with people only to have their photos posted up on some pretty nasty sites - all because they were too nice and innocent to realise that the net is full of people who have such a horrid real life that the only way they can make their life seem more important is to come online and make others miserable! I found the internet in my 30s and being quite streetwise I was lucky not to fall prey to those kind of people. On the other hand I have made some long lasting friends on the net who I correspond with regularly, have chatted with on the phone and even met in person. I have nothing to hide so I CAN be TOTALLY honest about my personality - I am sure there are many people on this site who pretend to be very different to their real life persona - to add friends left, right and centre, just to get responses to their discussions and earn a few more pennies whilst all the while pretending they are someone very different to what they really are. I don't want to go on about this too much but I would always advise people to think twice before giving too much personal info away on this or other websites to relative strangers, even letting slip details of where you work or the town or neighbourhood you live in could be dangerous...

Whoa..an interesting invitation to an open book of oneself. I wouldn't know where to start but honestly I am too shy to divulge to the world about myself as I do not have an interesting account of myself to shout about. Maybe you can read through the lines of my writings and conclude yourself what kind of lady you are interacting with. The virtual world has made it such that the unknown meet the unknown so to 'undress' here defeats the whole purpose of being private yet friendly. If you know me well then the thrill is gone and what is left is the monotonous of a daily conversation like in the real world. So in the meantime let me keep you in the guessing game!

Hi dpk262006! Oh this is difficult! haha..I have a different opinion of myself than what other people perceive me to be especially those who have not really know me at all or have just known me for a brief moment. In reality, i am a very quiet and reserved person although there are those rare times that I loosen up. I smile a lot even when my heart is broken. I am friendly yet over the years I became distant and not very trusting on people anymore. I guess, this is because I got hurt and betrayed so many times and used by people who are very close to me. It is hard for me to open up my heart to people and if I do it is because I feel that you are sincere and trustworthy. I am not a judgmental person, I respect people's individuality. I am a very simple person who loves my husband, my family and my friends. My heart breaks when I can't help people who are in need, whether financially or not. I want to get rich not for self gain but in order for me to uplift my family's lives. I am a dreamer and a workaholic. And I never stopped looking for opportunities and praying that one will come and work out just fine for me finally. I am a prayerful person but I lack faith sometimes. haha..I guess, this will somehow give you an idea about me dear friend!
Take care always and have a nice day!

It is nice to know that your respect others' individuality. You are a workaholic, that I can guess. It is all the more great that you smile a lot, even if you are upset from inside.

It is easy to tell about others but self assessment is little difficult. People are happy to judge others but seldom interested to judge themselves. I think your discussion will give an opportunity to all (think about themselves). About me, I will tell my negative points first, I get angry/irritated very easily, am very sentimental, am very lazy (but it depends, sometimes I am lazy to do some kind of jobs and some days in general, even do mylotting too) but it happens occasionally. In the positive side, I am happy to help others, try my best not to hurt others, always try to find out the positive side of others.
Deepak, you may add more, but only the negative points so that I can think about it and improve myself.

I am finding it difficult to describe myself. I think I can say that I do not make friends very easily. I am a person who does not show or share my feelings with others. If I am hurt by someone I would rather ignore that person instead of fighting back. I find it better communicating with friends online rather than face to face. I try to help people whenever I can. And now cannot think of what more to add here!

I think it is much easier to describe someone else, rather than yourself. You really don't see how you are. plus, how you see yourself, others may see you much different.
I would describe myself as a very helpful person. When it comes to doing my own things I can be very lazy. I am part German so I can be very stubborn at times and like to have last word. I also can get a temper if you really make me mad. I use to be able to say it would take a lot to make me angry, but anymore I would say it don't take much. I am very caring. And would never intentionally hurt someones feelings. I hate fights and hate to see people in a fight. I like things to be clean, very much hate clutter!! Lots of things annoy me, such as, people that chew with their mouth open, constant loudness,sound effects, people that can't drive, but are on the road anyways. That is just to name a few. I like pretty things, such as flowers, and colorful things. I like to read books every now and then. I am easy to get a long with, but I can also be extremely shy when I don't know someone and some people have taken that the wrong way thinking I don't like them, but it's just that I am shy and don't know what to say. But if I know you, you can expect me to talk a lot and sometimes joke around and act like a dork. I like to have fun and am willing to try all sorts of new things as long as they don't have the chance to kill me. I am scared of dying.
Ok maybe when I start to think about it, it isn't so hard to think of things that would describe what I am like.

You have very aptly described yourself in details.
You appear to me full of positive traits and you are a wonderful human being. Being caring and jovial are your biggest qualities and I feel you are having great sense of humour. You say you are shy, means that you are an introvert to an extent, like me....LOL!
Many thanks for sharing.

How i describe myself would depend on to whom and under what circumstances am i describing myself. If it was to friends the to pur it simply this is how it goes.
Someone who has learnt things the hard way and values positive qualities in people. I try to give things that i am doing the best. Dedicated, loyal to friends, do not speak much initally, can get angered on certain things especially when it comes to treatment of people and protective of my loved ones. I could say more DPK but then it would seem that i am bragging.

You have full liberatry to describe yourself, no one will dare say - you are bragging (believe me).
Nice to know that you are committed and dedicated worker and you are loyal to your friend. I can assess that you do not speak much, a kind or reserved person, till you completely open up with someone.
Many thanks for sharing and joining us.

Hear are a few things about me. They can be described as good or bad, depending on the person.
1. I am very outgoing. I love meeting new people and having a good time.
2. I am independent. I have found that it is better to depend on myself rather than others.
3. I am stubborn. Once I set my mind to something, it is very difficult for me to change it.
4. I am family oriented. My life revolves around my kids and their happiness.
5. I tend to adapt to every situation. However there are some that take longer to adapt to than others.
I guess that is about the jest of it. It is hard to describe yourself.

I am brave yet vulnerable. I have a strong determination and a will to succeed in every undertakings but honestly sometimes easily get discouraged. I am a GOd fearing person yet a sinner...

When you are brave and have strong determination, how can you be a sinner, you are a 'doer' and 'does' always succeeds. Best of Luck!
Thanks for describing yourself.

Hi dpk! Wow! It isn't easy to describe oneself, but I will
try! I am a very caring person. I love animals more than people
sometimes because they give love unconditionally! I am a
loyal and faithful friend, but I don't like to be crossed!
I like to laugh and have a good time, but I tend to keep to
myself alot too. I am an intelligent woman who definitely
doesn't like to be told what to do! I have worked hard my
whole life and now I am disabled and hate having to depend on
anyone because I have always been strong and independent! I
can still get around and do what I need to do and I don't
take sh!t from anyone! I can be the nicest person in the
world, but sometimes I let my sensitivity get in my way and
then my angry side takes over! I can be very complex too!
All in all I try to be the best person I can!

Opal,
You appear to me full of positive traits and you are a wonderful human being. Being honest and loyal are your biggest qualities and you are also having great sense of humour, you say. One thing disturbed me - when I read - 'I am disabled and hate having to depend on anyone'.
Why did you say so? Would like you to share, please.
No, you did not say anything odd, you described yourself aptly.
Many thanks for sharing.

This ought to keep me busy for awhile, or not depending on how disgusted I get with my perception of myself. You didn't say if you wanted a physical description or a description of our character. I guess it's obvious already that I am a procrastinator. This is a trait that I am trying to overcome. Okay, here goes.
I am a wordsmith. I have loved to read ever since I found out that there were words on the pages. I will read almost anything in print. Because of this I have developed a fairly large vocabulary. My husband used to always get on to me for using what he said were sixty four dollar words. He always said I talked over my kids heads but they too, as a result, have developed a good sized vocabulary.
I'm also something of a perfectionist. This has caused me quite a bit of trouble in the past. Although I can usually do a great job at anything I try it will take me longer to finish because I am nit picking the details.
I am a quick study. I can grasp the lesson being taught in the first few minutes of a lecture and then will be bored for the rest of the time while the points are expounded upon at length for everyone else's benefit. I had one teacher that recognized this ability in me and would always allow me to read library books during his classes because he knew that I would listen as long as I needed to and would then go on to other things.
I have traveled to many different places in my country and I am the happiest when I am on the road. Since I have gotten older though the kinds of jobs that would let me indulge myself this way are no longer available to me and since I am not independently wealthy, or even solvent, I will have to content myself with my memories.
So, what else would you like to know?

Hi! Savak!
First of all let me confess you that I have a very ordinary vocabulory, therefore, I am running short of words, how to appreciate your wonderful wonderful response, wherein you described yourself.
I appreciate your candid confession. The point or say which I liked most about you is that you are 'woman' of words.....!! I feel having strong command on your language and having a vast vocabulory can take you to dizzy hights. If you know how to express yourself beautifully through words, you can win many hearts.
I am blessed to be your friend.
It is really amazing and exciting to know that you are 'fast' learner and you can learn faster than the others. We all try to be perfectionist, one way or the other, however,my experience tells me that sometimes we need to contend ourselves, even if we do not achieve 'perfection'.
I can add that - you a very caring and sensitive person and you would stand by your friends, when they are in need. And you have great sense of humour.
Many thanks for aptly describing yourself.

Heyya dpk! Nice topic! Ok..let's see..I am very spirited and outgoing when I'm comfortable. I love to oil paint and write. I also like reading and love learning about people,customs,religions.I think my trip of a lifetime was to Japan where I visited temples in Kyoto. I love hiking and nature. I have two teacup chihuahuas that have stolen my heart. Two daughters that are as spirited as me which keeps me on my toes. I believe in honesty and respect for all as no one is better than another. I love with everything I am and there's nothing I wouldn't do for my loved ones or friends. I am unfortunately not close to my family(mom,dad,etc)I haven't seen them in years but for the most part I think it's for the best. I am optimistic and try to always look on the bright side. I have had some very tough times and glad their over. That pretty much sums it up. That's me.
