List your faults

If I was joining seriously a dating site to find a wife for the rest of my life, I would make honestly a complete list of my faults. If I was joining one to have some love affairs to kill my boredom, the list would be left blank.

hi dawn yes I think I could be honest if I was younger and in the need of dating again. I would put down I am shy, I have a q uick temper and I will not date anyone who is dumb, stupid, or ignorant.AS I made thpse mistakes first time round,

If I could think of any I would. Hahaha It would have to be I am a political junkie and I like Obama and still hold Tommy Douglas, the Canadian MP who was responsible for getting us universal single payer healthcare.

Haas! We don't tend to be fully aware of our faults. It's usually someone else who points them out to us. Let's. See...I've been told I was hard to live with, noncommunicative, coy, and a host of other descriptive terms. But they are exes. So what do they know??? He he

Once I tried selling a car myself and told everything that was wrong about it (first thing) I was honest but did not sell the car. I think people if required would say silly things that everyone can be faulted for but does not mean too much like sometimes sleep in or whatever. What would I say? I would say I am too busy for dating.

I would say that I am lazy and I hate to cook. Well, who wants me know? Now really, I'm cooking because I have to eat something, but I really hate spending a lot of time in the kitchen for almost nothing.

Some job applications are that way as well. I try to be honest in a positive light. What is your strength--I am responsible. What is your biggest weakness--I am responsible. Worst job review I ever had said I always pitched in and did everyone else's work and they could not tell who was goofing off. You know the drill. I take responsibility for my work and often for every one else's. How about, I am a good cook and a bad housekeeper? That would work for me for dating. I would always try to outweigh the bad with the good and be honest.

For starters (this is what puts most guys off).Independent woman...if I date someone they say it to me like it's a sin.....chubby middle...arthritic knees....That's what I would say....but I am not sure others would be so honest. My sister's friend signed up for a sight ....she put up..if you are looking for Barbie just keep going....she listed her big behinder....well her now husband answered....the bigger the better...on the way to their first date he kept thinking....I hope its big enough. She kept thinking....I hope it's not too big. They have been happily married for several years now.....in this case...honesty was the best policy.

I would be honest.. and I guarantee you nobody would be interested in me at all! But I think it's best to be honest from the start so people know what they're getting themselves into. It's better to be hated for who you are than to be loved for who you are not. My faults would include insecurity, controlling, quick tempered, judgemental, loves to complain, loves to talk about myself and easily stressed.. the longer I think on this, the more I'm adding, LOL.

I doubt people would be honest. They want to put that best foot forward. And it would defeat the purpose of the sites. I would have to say that I am selfish, lathargic, lazy, non-conformist, negative, cautious, rebellious, procrastinator, depressed, easily panicked, shy, and sarcastic.

LOL! Do you know the song "B!tch" by Meridith Brooks? Well, I would probably say to listen to that song, and if you still wanted to talk to me, then do it at your own risk.

Ha ha. Well, I think knowing the faults are just as important as knowing the good stuff . . . if you meet this person, you're bound to find out anyway (hopefully) - just faster if it's mandatory and up front! I know I would be honest about it - no reason to lie. But I don't know that others would be as honest. A listed fault could be not so bad as you thought . . . or it could be way worse!!

I would be vague! Just like when I go to job interviews. When they ask me what are my good traits, I would say I am very detailed. And then when they ask what are my bad traits, I would also say I'm very detailed. So for a dating site, I would put the same best-foot and faults. Best foot: romantic, athletic, successful Faults: too romantic, too athletic, too successful

I thought a fault lied beneath the Earth's surface. Causing earthquakes evertime it chose to move. Those mean old fault lines have caused deaths, flooding, buildings and roads to collapse and last but not least it has left some people homeless. Costing sociey millions of dollars. Best Wishes!

I have noticed that also. I would list my faults and want them to do the same thing. I would not want to waste each others time if they have faults that I cannot handle and vice versa.

Almost all of these sites have a comments section, though, and through that comments section, you can put whatever you'd like, including your faults! Of course, people still usually put down faults that aren't really faults, its like when a employer is asking an interviewee about their faults, and they say they work too hard... maybe on the dating sites they'd say they exercise too much, or they concentrate too much on their beauty, or they're workaholics.... I'm thinking of my negatives.... and I just wouldn't want to put them down.... on any site!

I think the reason people focus on their good qualities first is because it's very healthy to state the positive aspects about who you are as a person. When you focus or dwell on the negatives, it tends to drain you and I think it can promote a lot of bad self esteem. I definitely think it's healthy to recognize our faults, and especially those we can change, but I also feel like it's more important to focus on our good qualities which is why I think a lot of people do that on here. :)

I think to list their faults they go to the church and confess. They prey for forgiveness then they think the faults have been washed off. Now they can put best foot forward. Remembering good attracts good.

That's natural, because if you put there your worst attitude then who will date you? As for me, I would do the same. I think that's acceptable.

I always want achieve many goals at the same time,but in the end all fail.I believe I will be responsible for my futurer,however,some organisation I'm fond of have reject my applicants as I can't pass the examination of language skill.I'm upset now.
