What positive personality trait do you strongly dislike?

Excessive empathy and always being kind no matter what. This is coming from someone who used to deal with this problem all the time. I was a people-pleaser when I was younger due to an abusive upbringing, leading me to project my issues onto my personal life. I thought that it was the only thing about myself that was worth sticking around for. Turns out, it did my self-image, my personal relationships, and my happiness a lot more damage than it ever would do anyone any fucking good.

Being kind and having empathy for people is very important, hell, it's vital. But there is very much a thing as having too much of it, to the point where it harms you and harms others.
