Jealousy tops all these awful traits. Especially when you have constantly received it all your life from a close family member. At 38 I am at last learning how to ignore other peoples bad vibes and nasty intentions. You certainly become wise as you get older. People don’t generally talk about bad traits and usually deny having them. They should be talked about from an early age as part of life skills if you know what i mean. People who are the most succesful in life are not jealous bitter greedy people. Its never too late to change if you have bad traits or to learn to deal with other peoples bad traits.

no 1 for me would be, cruelty, ie deliberately trying to hurt others just for pleasure; no 2, callousness towards those who suffer; no 3, lack of concern and empathy in relating to others. Nothing to me seems more intolerable than nasty or sadistic people, unless it’s cold people who at times can seem even worse, maybe (asking myself why here), cos if someone is nasty to others, at least there’s a chance they might favour you as an exception, whereas cold people make the whole atmosphere seem even more unsafe. Judgementalism, I agree with the person above, is also very off-putting and alienating.

I don’t think dependency is always off-putting – that seems a bit like love – irritating if coming from someone you don’t want to be close to, but otherwise, can’t see it would always be a problem.

Great site! I have been faced with this dilemma alot recently, and as a humble and relatively reserved musician, it is often almost stifling to me when I encounter these types of people. In a world ruled by what I like to call ‘the hype’, or the power of self promotion, I suppose it is truly hard not to see this behavior as being the condition for ’success’. What I’ve also recognized is that, for whatever reason, these attributes are intimidating and that’s the dividing factor between success and failure for most of us. I also believe that this is why incompetent people get ahead sometimes, because they adopt an attitude of superiority, which is in turn recognized by thier incompetent superiors as equitable and correct, even though it is merely a tool used by the weak to gain control or favor even when they are less than competent at thier jobs. But some people will do anything to keep control or to get ‘attention’ at the cost of others.

Hello,

I’ve been feeling like this for years – I think I have all the negative features that you have listed.
The result is that I am completely alone.

How do I start?

I Think we all have a bit of all ten traits at times. I know I certainly do, Could you do a list of ten ways of avoiding trying to be nice or nasty, and becoming absolutly genuine, weather your audience likes it or not.

I have to work hard to overcome pessimism … that’s one of the toughest on your list for me.

I do not think that “it” (condescention) is only heard. When you look at an expression, posture, tone as mentioned. It all adds up. I do not think this can be blamed on class, social status, or upbringing. Some of the dearest people I have had the pleasure of knowing have been from long-standing wealth. Yet, these folks were genuine and sincere. Never a pursed lip, or a Thurston Howell the III aura.

I am not fond of people who are arrogant, I hate people who are over-confident know-alls, this can be interpreted in two different ways. There those people who are know-alls but do actually know about a certain subject, and then there all know-alls who ramble on but actually know sweet FA about what their talking about. I am not particularly fond of people who are bossy and domineering either.

[...] Rudeness – (Meaning = not polite; offensive or embarrassing)When I think of people who are rude I tend to think of shop sales assistants. I know in America they are much more customer focused but in the UK customer service in shops can be terrible. It’s especially annoying when someone is serving you and they are talking to their friend about what happened last night. [...]
