One who keeps screwing things up for themselves. Usually not on purpose.

When you have the opportunity for a easy, stress free life, but love to be a bad boy and get the blood pumping, so you make life decisions to ensure you get this daily.
I found out yesterday my licence has been expired for 3 months, I'm driving around in my unregistered ute with a bald back tyre while taking a video on my phone following a cop car. I like to partake in self sabotage.

-a bro suffering from of Post-Traumatic-Breakup-Syndrome (PTBS) has opportunities for new trim, but he "sabotages" it either subconsciously or consciously because he can't get over his ex. Ironically, slam-pieces often throw themselves at a "self-saboteur." This could be from pity or because he's so fucked up over his ex that he is the ultimate challenge.

-when in large groups a self-saboteur can help all of his bros get their stingers in some honey, but in a pack of two . . . the girl he shoots down will end up cockblocking the other two.

-two phases of this terrible disease 1) denial stage- where the guy doesn't want to admit he's doing it and 2) acceptance stage- he's fully aware and begins to alter his attitude so he can stick his stinger in some honey.
Anthony: Did you close on her last night? She was chasing your D.
Tyler: Nah, I got too drunk and started being a dick.

Anthony: Please don't tell me you pull a self-sabotage! Bro, that's just fucking sad! You need to get some new honey on that stinger!

Something your brain does to you when you find something your heart feels it's amazing, but due to some unfortunate circumstances and bad decisions on both sides, your brain now tries to distract you from the person/thing you want so much due to past trauma so your heart won't get hurt with all this intrusive thoughts and things that you could do.
Pers1: Hey, how is the thing you have going on with that guy you like so much?

Pers2: I feel like my brain is trying to self-sabotage it, cause it gives me all this intrusive thoughts and makes me say dumb shit, so I'm working on it, cause I really don't want to lose him. I'm trying to understand my emotions and thoughts better.

Self Sabotage is when you fart before you sit down.
Person 1: "Awh fuck."

Person 2: "What is it?"

Person 1: "Nothing. I just Self Sabotaged myself."
