I am a perfectionist. Grades, sports, appearance, social life- I can't stand the thought of not succeeding at anything. I don't think grades are the most important thing ever and I don't spend hours studying...yet I secretly stress over B's. (on tests I mean...I would never let my actual average fall below a solid A ) I claim I don't give a shit about a class and really don't study...but I always end up freaking out at the prospect of doing less than great, and cram like hell at the last minute. In sports I always feel the need to be the best- it's hard for me to accept the possibility of doing a sport for friends and staying in shape and having fun. Even though that's what I claim to be doing this year, I secretly neeeeed to be the best or I will just suck. I'm not vain or materialistic and I don't hang out with judgemental groups where it's all about looks, so it's not about that...but I still stress out about my appearance (face + body) being perfect. I have good friends but still agonize over whether my social life lives up to what it should be at my age.
etc etc etc
so I'm sure there are lots of other perfectionist types here. confess now...and we can have a support group and shit
