Secrecy bordering on lying. Not fully owning up to mistakes *even
when pretending to do just that*. Emotional and intellectual
manipulation all over the place. Those are MAJOR turn-offs for *me*.

I guess it's a matter of personal balance between a character's faults
and virtues. What is of major importance (in good or bad) for one
person is not necessarily so for another, so that in the end we can
get all sorts of balance on any character. Just look at Snape :-P
