If you realized good things and things about yourself that you disliked, did you work on the things you disliked?
Or did you leave it alone?

Yes I have, and I still am. From my point of view, you learn about your self when you try to learn about other people. If you are in a healthy relationship you try to learn as much as you can about the other person and in the process you learn more about yourself. I also think that if you look at some of the common issues you have from relationship to relationship, you will be able to see some things that were once hidden from you. You need to look at the common denominator in all of your different relationships, and of course the one common denominator is you. By doing that you have to think "is the problem with them, or is it really me". I have found out a lot of not so nice things about myself by doing this, but I am glad that I did so I could work on improving them. I also discovered some things that are not so bad. Once I discovered something that I did not like about myself I worked (work) hard to change that, because I want to be the best person that I could be. If I ignore my weaknesses, which is the easier road to take, I would not be happy with my self in the long run. It is important though to look at the reasons you would want to "improve" anything about your self. Sometimes we think we have a weakness when it is really a strength.

Absolutely. The largest room in the world is the room for improvement. If you find something out about yourself that you dislike, why not make a change to better yourself? As long as it's a legitimate issue, don't be too hard on yourself.

Yes. Almost every relationship I have ever been in (bf/gf) has shown me that I am more compassionate, caring, loving, etc. than the guys I have dated. This explains that I need to start looking for different types of guys that would treat me the way I deserve to be treated. Alot of women have this problem - not everyone of them agree to change!

Absolutely!And yes of course I worked and still work on the things that I dont like about myself.My life is about progress not perfection.I have to live in my own skin so I might as well make it as nice as I can....IN my own standards and not someone elses.

Everything you do teaches you about yourself. We are all works in progress. And, Of course you should work on the "bad" things. as long as you are doing it for you...not some stupid guy.

i realized that I was a fighter(that's good) and a weak convincer. (that's bad). Well i left them alone because i know as I'll grow older ill eventually have more wisdom about how to deal with my relationship.
