I'll start off.

I have trouble getting anywhere without GPS because I can't memorize directions.

Skipping ropes.

Whistling.

Smiling for pictures.
 
driving. very bad at reversing the car or getting the car into and out of tight spaces. i don't have good awareness of my surroundings.

i am also very bad at opening paper bags :))

Do you have a license?
 
Wow, thought I was gonna be the first one to say driving or navigation especially considering most guys are good at them, got beaten on both accounts lmao :))

Also slow at tying shoelaces, I know there is a faster method but I learnt how to tie them when I was 16.. yeah I know.

I thought I was a pretty good driver u til I hit a pole today. :(
 
when i reverse a car i think i am about to hit another car or an object but when i step out of the car and observe it is like 5 feet away :))

no because i am afraid that i will fail. i don't have confidence in my driving ability.

Yeah. Don't go for your license until you're fully confident. A driving instructor would greatly benefit you.
 
Shaving :(( :(( - I cut myself, multiple times, like every freaking day :facepalm: :facepalm: It's so frustrating man :sanga
 
Oh, also, very bad at using change, dimes, nickels. Which is scary because I used to be a cashier so I wonder how many people I've ripped off or given an unintentional giveaway to. :ibutt
 
Eating! I always end up making a mess!:rp Ironing, can't avoid the double crease:maqsood

Yeah, same. I can't line up my beard because I'm afraid that I'll mess it up if I do it myself.

I'm a beast at lining up my beard. I don't use a blade though, I use trimmer machine thing. :afridi
 
Difficult to remember the directions even if i go there once.
I can't swim.
Doing make up. I never cared about it tbh
Faking conversations with the relatives in weddings, family functions etc
Sibling fights. Always give up easily.
 
I tend to forget where I have parked my car when I go to a big parking lot. There are times I have been looking for my car for like half and hour.
 
I bloody forgot how to swim, so that pisses me off. But otherwise, I absolutely have no skills in Math or any math related work.
 
I can't:

* Tie my shoelaces
* Tie a tie
 
  • Keeping track of time
  • Poor attention span/focus
  • Poor at tying shoelaces
  • Poorly coordinated , easily trips,goes off balance, bangs head or slips
  • Gets lost easily without GPS, even in my own home city !
  • Misses traffic lights and turns frequently, always need a navigator by the side
  • Always spills stuff from glasses/containers . (poor coordination again)
 
the push and pull thing is my kryptonite.

not a day passes by without me pushing a door that is supposed to be pulled, and pulling a door that is supposed to be pushed.
 
Dribbling a ball through my legs even though I'm pretty decent baller.

Remembering names of people I'm not exactly friends with but still run into.

Keeping in touch with people, they think i'm ignoring them or am ungrateful when in reality I'm just terrible with responding with messages, calling back etc


I also have a bad habit of putting things off until the end and then I go into 5th gear to finish it off. I'd do so much better if I weren't procrastinating so much. :sarf

Video games.

Controlling anger.

Basketball.

Technical things e.g. opening knots, fixing/running certain things on a computer, putting a rubber band over things. :))

Snapping fingers, though I guess not anymore (just tried snapping and I think I'm doing a good job).

Whistling to an extent.

This is another one. Am bad at all the common worldwide sports lmao. Am marginally better at basket ball, in 7th grade scored a three pointer once in PE, highlight of my career. Only time in this forsaken sport people came up to give me high fives.

Absolutely terrible at football, can't play it to save my life. Same for volleyball.

Badminton and cricket are the only ones within my comfort zone.

Alot of things.
Surely not a role model to follow in life. Also not very naturally talented in any particular area or field.

Hardly can think of things being good at

Bargaining with shopkeepers. Shopping in Pakistan is an art form, always end up overpaying despite knowing the real value.
 
Speaking in Urdu with relatives.

Procrastinating is my biggest problem.

One that seriously puts me off is technology. I don't understand computers and other different tech other than the basic use. Configurations and fixing tech is my biggest nightmare. When I'm trying to fix something, I start panicking and go into genuine anxiety about it. Honestly, I hate technology as much as a I love it. And there's a solid reason why; things stop working without a reason, especially when they're out of the box and the first time.

The Murphy's law ALWAYS works against me.

Keeping track of time, getting easily distracted. This also falls under procrastination but I keep delaying things without a reason only for them to finally fall on my head at the last moment and then I go into depression.

Tying a tie. Have been learning to do so all my life but I just can't seem to do it. Another such thing is swimming, ive been swimming all my life but I never really learnt how to swim properly. All my family can swim but I learn and then I forget. It's pretty annoying.
 
I get nervous pretty easily if I find people staring at me and won't even be able to handle some really simple tasks.
 
Mathematics(hands down)
Don't know how to speak freely with strange girls
 
Sometimes in pics idk what to do with my hands so I just put my hands in my pockets lol

does anybody have any advice for that?

Not sure what you meant by strange?

I think he means those basic girls.

Just be yourself but most importantly don't be needy or desperate.

Most of the times girls just talk to me, I think you just gotta look approachable if that makes sense. In fact, girls tend to talk more than guys so you don't even have to say much lol
 
Not too great (or keen) when it comes to household chores... [MENTION=133760]Abdullah719[/MENTION] is better at that sort of stuff. :yk
 
Tying a tie.

Bargaining.

Getting angry (that's generally a good thing but it can allow others to sometimes take advantage of you...)

Strange means the girls we met for a first time or the one's we haven't known previously

Meanwhile the situation is different with known girls like friends or cousins,their will be no hesitation whilst talking with them

I have read somewhere that most of the girls like talkative guys and the one's who say lot of jokes

Let alone girls talking to anyone with confidence is a good thing,after all as we all know first impression is the best impression
