I think it takes a really courageous person to hear someone share their negative traits and still trust them, just like it takes one to buy a product on Amazon with a lot of 1* reviews. I'm trying to be that person, but its hard! In my experience, voicing negative traits about oneself can put a kind of iceberg into someone else's mind, where they think "what else must be wrong with this dude". People who know you and trust you already, won't be impacted by this of course.
