I've pretty much been a fierce competitor as long as I can remember. No matter how trivial the game or competition, I end up putting everything I can into it and being extremely pissed if I'm on the losing end. If I end up the winner, I don't gloat or brag or anything, but am happy with the victory.
Case in point....tonight we had a basketball game (intramural) and I ended up being furious at my team for pretty much givin up when we were down by 5 with a minute to go. I didn't scream at anyone or anything, but finished up the game (we lost  ) and walking back without saying a word to anyone.Yes yes, I know, it's just a game, but I guess it's in my nature to be ridiculously competitive. Anyone else like this? |

I'm generally very laid back, but it burns my ass that I have finished either 4th or 5th (out of 500 riders) EVERY TIME I ride in this big local bike race - which is the only bike race I ride in. Three years in a row now, I have tried to make it onto the podium, and every freakin' year I'm just barely out of medal contention!! Last year, and the year before, I was freaking 4th place!!
But this is going to be the year !!!! (... yeah, that's what I said last year, and the year before) |

When I was younger (20's) I only played for fun. Now I HAVE to win and will play until I do so.

My relay team came in 6th in the "Big Boys Relay" when I was in 5th grade. Didn't really bother me, though.
I don't have a competitive bone in my body. I have the ribbon around here, somewhere.... |

I'll admit I'm probably too competitive and often a perfectionist. It can be good sometimes, but can also lead to unwarranted or particularly harsh self-criticism. Ask me how I know.

I had a buddy in the army who broke up with his girlfriend (and refused to drive her home, so she had to walk to the bus station) because she couldn't answer a trivial pursuit question that he thought was easy - and so they lost a game to another couple.
