For example this could include: jealousy, getting upset over little things, frequent complainer, have to talk to others when your upset, self esteem issues, selfish, or bad temper?

I find I do have some of these and I feel like its sometimes not a good feeling to know you have a trait that general society would frown upon. Do you feel you have some undesirable traits too? Also do you wish you could change these traits or make them go away but struggle to do so?

Since the question was phrased as what society sees as undesirable I'm Autistic

i tend to be over-sensitive. realizing it keeps me from over-reacting most of the time. i'll probably always be this way, though.

No, I'm perfect. People just fail to see this.

Yes, but mainly characteristics that I think other people find undesirable, such as my being "too" subtle or precise about verbal communication, and getting frustrated or even just trying to clarify the meaning when other people are not. I don't dislike that trait.

I do dislike my tendency to brood and run things through my mind repeatedly. It drives me insane and keeps me in a negative mood.
