What's an imperfection that you love about yourself

edited November 2024 in General

I have wayyyy too many imperfections to list lol. I would say something about me I love and people don't see often because I tend to smirk more than smile is my snaggle tooth. When I was in second grade I was smashed in the face with a golf club so it affected the way my teeth grew in. One of my two front teeth is crooked and kinda overlaps the other. If you're familiar with Jonathan Davis from Korn it's similar to that. I used to be embarrassed by it but now I embrace it. A fun party trick that I can strike a match on it 😆

    Smashed in the face with a golf club???! Damn man, that’s is rough! (Couldn't let that one just hang out there without at least commenting on it somewhat).

    “An imperfection about myself that I love”??? Will this qualify as an answer?: The thing that I love and hate most about myself (to be vulnerable for a moment) is that I am (or CAN be) very sensitive. There I frigging said it ok.(And not with everything mind you, but as a general rule, yes, except when I lose my patience).

  • @pmvines im starting to think you should start your own thread about interesting experiences and trauma. It seems like you've shared a lot lately that hadn't been shared before.

    Thug life!!!

  • Nah I was just standing behind a friend who had a driver and hit a ball and when it swung back hit me in the face . Came about a quarter inch from knocking out my eye lol

  • Wow @pmvines I've spent significant
    in-person time with you and Never Noticed that and I’m serious! Now we have to cuddle again! You’re so fun I doubt anyone would ever see this.
    @WestsideMarc being sensitive is a very nice quality. Just imagine being the opposite!
    I avoid being around insensitive people.

    Personally I don’t want to give all the thought about my zillions of imperfections because I would be exhausted and there’s too much else to do today. But physically. My hands have lost dexterity and it’s affecting my work.

  • Awe @g_w_t_w my snaggle is smiling

    Ooooh, @g_w_t_w ! You got to hang out with @pmvines???? I'M JEALOUS. There, I said it!!! :) Sad, though, to hear about the loss of dexterity. That's got to be tough...

    OT: Hated it, at first, but mine would be my inability to take "hints." Turns out, as I matured, it seems that this is a feature instead of a bug! :)

  • 🌟Sparkling depression🌟 especially in the winter. Just part of who I am.

  • Not going to lie… if I'm by myself, my extra stinky farts. Thanks for asking.

  • @Mela_B
    Same. Isn’t it great! 🫠

  • An imperfection that I love...

    Here goes

    I was young.

  • This is sort of a self made one but at 18 my first tattoos I got were knuckle tattoos and sometimes depending on the situation I get anxiety on people judging me on them in professional settings and then out in the world I’m like yaaaaaa people must think I’m
    A tough and rough guy with these

    Golf club to the skull..happened to me as well from my dad's backswing...so the club speed was decelerating..but being a kid, it still hurt.. I can still hear the club. sssSSPOOOIIINnnng!! I was concerned about how everyone would react (i didn't want them to not invite me next time) so I kept myself quiet.

    Back then the kid wasn't the star of the show lol

  • I'd probably say being short..it makes hugs from a taller, bigger person that much more enjoyable. 🤗

  • Wish I loved my imperfections but I'm coming up empty handed right now

  • I would say my ability to talk to mostly anyone about almost anything. My stims are also dancing and making up random songs.

  • Not really an imperfection but I've really grown to embrace my white beard that doesn't really match my head hair.

  • I have a very obvious birthmark, and I have trouble even envisioning what it would look like, without it. While getting a mole removed once, the doctor commented that they could cut the birthmark out. I immediately furrowed and said no. She smiled and said, "Good for you!", as if I were doing something brave by keeping it... 🤨

    I just feel it's part of my identity and it hasn't made me self-conscious since I was a child. Besides, I'd probably have a giant scar in place of a birthmark, if I had it removed...no point!

    I've seen a lady on Instagram who puts gold glitter on a lip mole, and I think that's the most bad@ss thing! I'd totally do silver on my birthmark, if I didn't think if would rub off in five minutes.

  • My crooked smile.😁

    That, at times, my confidence to others can appear to be cockiness. It is a thin line so I've worked on being aware of my thoughts and then better words on how to express them. Confidence can change one's entire outlook on themselves, both in a physical stance as well as a mental one.

  • My quirky habit of singing like, all the time. I absolutely love to sing.

  • One of my leg is smaller than the others

  • Always trying to help others

  • I have an inability to do time zone math. Like I always screw it up. I have to learn to embrace it as part of my charm. I’m 2 hours from the Nashville airport which is in another time zone and if I had a nickel for every time I arrives waaaay too early for my flight…

    @VitaminJ
    I live in Birmingham and usually fly out of Atlanta , so going from central to eastern time makes it confusing for me as well and I have the opposite problem of having to make sure I don't arrive too late ! Which is why I usually just end up staying in Atlanta the night before lol

  • @pmvines i love to go a day early for my flights too have met many nice Nashville and Atlanta cuddles that way wish it was possible all the time!

  • Our imperfections make us perfect human beings. I think all my imperfections make me unique and no one else is quite like me.

    (but I also have to agree with @pmvines that I love my gray beard too)

  • I have a toe that is malformed. I am special according to my aunt's sister in law.

  • All my scars from various accidents through the years. One from a medical procedure. I used to be so self conscious: "are they looking me in the eyes or are they noticing that scar under my eye or the one in the bridge of my nose?" Now, I'll tell them HOW I got them if I'm so inclined.

  • My ability to be a low key asshole but still be kind and compassionate to my fellow humans
