be assimilated into the Borg Collective.

Answer 2

Perfectionists are horrible people.. It's impossible to live with a perfectionist.. Life is not perfect..  no human being is perfect as we all have our little weaknesses and strenghts.. so I would rather strive to be the best that i can be but never want to be a perfectionist and as soon as anyone makes a tiny mistake I shout at them.. that's horrible.. a perfectionist is the last thing I want to be. xx

Answer 3

annoy the s**+* out of people and act like your the center of the universe

Answer 4

First of all, I think saying a perfectionist is a horrible person was a horrible thing to say about someone. I am a perfectionist myself, but in different areas of my life. My work.. I like to make it look perfect. It is a detailing job, so I want it to look as good as I can make it look. Being a perfectionist isn't always an easy thing, it is just how I am. Sometimes it gets on my nerves because if I can get something perfect, it upsets me. However, I won't expect others to be perfect in essence of who they are. I respect people and won't judge or degrade them because of who they are. If you want to be a perfectionist, I am not sure if it is possible to *become* one, I think it is just in your blood. However, if you like to try.. when doing something, keep telling yourself that it can be better. Then you will continue to strive to make it look better.. to a point where you will have to tell yourself to walk away. (as I have to do, as funny as it is). Perfectionist pay attention to detail.. That could be a start for you.  

Answer 5

A friend of mine is and it s hard to be around him because you have to say the right words , do the right stuff and being always perfect, to me it tiring and i can never be, i think it has to be in you.

Answer 6

I believe you can only do the best you can. If you kept thinking this is not perfect and stuff like that...You'll end up being tired and worried all the time. Really, just be satisfied with what you do. It doesn't have to be perfect and it won't make a difference to anyone cos it's only a relative thing. Some people may think it's perfect and some may not. Just do the best you can and don't worry about making it perfect.
