Oh my God yes to both!! We both have OCD about it. It's horrible and annoying. I hated having myself and found someone with the same problem


We both are.


Nope. I fly by the seat of my pants, working, and figuring things out as I go. She is.


I kind of am. It's something I've gotten a lot better about but I still need a certain amount of organization and preciseness in my day to feel relaxed and in control. I don't think he is , no.


I'm far from!! My partner is very much so ..but she has lightened up a little since she's been with me


We both are--him a bit more than me--but we try to know how to relax at the right times, too.


Yes I am, and no she isn't.......
Lol he definitly is and I'm so definitly not

I am a perfectionist. Virgo!!! She is so not a perfectionist, but it's ok.


To things of value and importance yes. My Husband -I'd have to say at times


Yes, no.


Yo si el no


I'm not. I always want to do things better but perfection isn't the goal. She's like to be expert at whatever she turns her hand to - more a competitive person than perfectionist x
Yes, I think I'm a perfectionist.

I think we both are - or at least we both expect excellence in ourselves and in others, sometimes not giving enough grace. I think we are getting better at that - learning to pick our battles and decide when and how to let things go.


Yes. No.


I am... manners, cleanliness, organization, yes some of this is OCD but most of it is perfectionism that was instilled in me early on as a child. I think my partner is about some things but not about all.
