What is it they say about curiosity? (Meow.)

Am I prescient or what? A mere 24 hours or so after my last post, say hello to the Nohari Window. Thanks to infiniteviking for spotting the tactfully hidden link.

I have often said (yes, really) that one of my greatest fears is that I have some obnoxious character trait/flaw that I'm personally unaware of and that people are too polite to tell me. Well, now's your chance to speak up!

My Nohari Window

Use a pseudonym if you're worried I'll get huffy on you. Though really, the worst that could happen is that I drop you a line to inquire anxiously what I did/said that gave you that impression and how I might be able to avoid making the same mistake in future.* I have my share of flaws, but I am seldom violent or hostile.

* Assuming it’s something I feel I ought to correct, that is. It might not be, because I’m just that arrogant (which is, sadly, not on the list. Though smug is, which I’m sure at least some of you will find useful).

I am amused that of the ten people who've commented on my Johari window, the one thing everyone seems to agree on is complex. Also, the three people who know me in real life all called me "dignified" while none of my online friends did. I'm still contemplating that one.

As to your Nohari window, I honestly cannot find a word that describes your behavior as I am familiar with it. *shrugs* I think, considering that (most people) are on their best behavior on the net, you have to know a person very well indeed to be able to pinpoint their flaws.

Actually, "dignified" does strike me as an appropriate description for you, even if it wasn't one of the words I ended up choosing. (Or have I done you yet? I've lost track.)

But if most people are on their best behaviour on the net, heaven help us all. :)

I do hope you'll forgive me, but I wouldn't touch this Nohari thingummy for love nor money.
