    No, the friend I needed was thankfully one I have. He delivered a good ol' punch to the gut and told me to my face, as kindly as he could, that I'm being a dumbass and there are several character flaws that I should (ugh, hate that word) probably work on.

    EDIT: With all due respect and love to Ziru, he's just not willing to punch me in the face with forthright honesty.

    Its always good to have someone who actually can tell you what to do in time of a big problem for someone or push you in the right direction.

    Well now thanks to Rokom I have a little more insight on what happened and I hope important person is able to help you out with this.

    Also
    I'm sorry I wasn't there myself. I know I'm one of people that doesn't read fan fiction, but

    I could've at least said something. I don't know what.

    No apologies necessary. No offense, but I've found remarkably few people who actually said what I needed to hear. Not even my mom was among them.

    Heh. What he did falls more in line with "Slapped me and told me to stop being such a bitchy crybaby", but yeah, having the right people can help immensely.

    As painful as the process may be, I'd argue that working through or around "character flaws" is one of the things that makes life worth living. It may just be because of the joy I personally get from introspection, but I find looking within to try to discern one's own reasons for their thoughts or behavior to be one of the most powerful and enlightening things one can do.

    That's why I stay out of these sorts of things unless the person has directly come to me, my opinion often gets people upset or is wrong, and so is not really needed. The people on my friend's list occasionally come to me, and I give them advice, and more often than not it works out fine.

    Also, apparently I have great fashion sense.

    Oh, finding the reasons is fun enough. I do that all the time. The issue was that my stubbornness and the ego I frequently claim is not mine get in the way of actually correcting or working around said flaws.

    I know that feeling. I have several things that I know are consistent problems, but I don't bother to change them due to either apathy, or just a general lack of willpower. I guess that luckily for me I can work around them most of the time, though that adds its own problem of bringing me into the mindset that I don't need to bother changing since a large enough problem isn't caused, even when it becomes apparent that that clearly isn't the case.

    that feel when you want to change an aspect of yourself and just can't get rid of enough pride to do so

    Thats sometimes just the best way. Only just talking around the problem so you don't try to hurt the person can end up in misunderstanding the advice.
