Approachable
I want to increase my affectiveness with people, so I asked a person I knew a tough question. I asked her how approachable am I? She gave me an honest answer and it wasn’t what I wanted to hear.
Do you give permission to certain people around you to give you honest feedback about your personality?
Psalms 31:6
Truth or dare – Would you rather do an impression of the next person you see or tell someone a fault about your personality?

What you see is what you get.
If I ask for it sure why not? If I don’t like what I hear that’s my problem lol but I know who I am so whatever someone else thinks of me doesn’t faze me.
Yes, @boricua_chic_2008 - For one always gives me honest feedback. I love knowing where I stand with her. But she also lets me be who I am, make my own mistakes. My other close friends are like that too. I’m blessed there
There is no such thing as constructive criticism. Telling people their faults almost always causes hard feelings.
@bmojsilo - thanks
@boricua_chic_2008 - good self confidence
@LoBornlytesThoughtPalace - True – but I like the people that stick by you while you heal.
@YouToMe - Likewise sis! <3
All the time. In fact, with anything. I am a person who would give you an honest opinion without sugarcoating. I do that because I respect the person as a mature adult who deserves my honesty. They certainly do not want me to lie to them, do they?
No way…I’m too old to change now anyway!
my personality is a fault.
I don’t mind constructive criticism, as long as it’s presented in a friendly manner. I’m one of those types that continuously takes part in self-depreciating humor anyway, so it usually doesn’t bother me. lol
Yup. Few people take me up on the offer. I must be a hopeless case.
Good thing introvertedness is part of my personality.
No I don’t want to know:):) I am more than happy to tell someone a fault about my personality and easily intimidated I am. I am my worst critic.
I’ve been told I can be intimidating so I think that most people probably would not feel like they could comment on my personality. I can be very self deprecating, so I’d much rather tell one of my many faults than try to do an impression.
I want honest feedback. People hardly give it.
i do want that. but then different people have different opinions.
@WondersCafe - That’s true
@Pepin909 - Thanks
@Grannys_Place - Thanks@grim_truth - Some can get carried away with it.
I’m more then willing to let people critique me, if anything it gives me some time to reflect on the small imperfections of myself, and truly I’d rather tell my own imperfection then point out another persons through impersonation, “you pick out the speck in another eyes when you have a log in your own” I see it that way
