discouraged perfectionist

You think you are perfect. You may be ready to overindulge yourself in one way or another. You may be an ultra perfectionist and you get frustrated when things don’t go your way. You may become very impatient with, or intolerant of, people who don’t measure up to your standards. You may be very structured, with high expectations for yourself and others. You may agonize over the problems of others and want to move in, take over, and solve everything. You are afraid of losing others and will do anything to keep them in your life.

Dr. Kevin Leeman uses "discouraged perfectionist" in his book "The Birth Order Book"
