Anonymous  +  262963 Tue, 05 Sep 06 03:43 PM Hello, I am just trying to find the opposite of "qualities" talking about personality. My first idea is "shortcomings" but I can't find a dictionary to back me up. I always find "flaw" or "fault" but they sound wrong... Can anyone help me? Thanks a bunch! Anonymous

It is one reason why he is such a good teacher. She gets angry very quickly. Her temper is a weakness. Nef Joined on Sun, Jan 1 2006 California, USA Regular Member 638
