At times, Pearl does not realize when she is being selfish because she thinks she is always doing everything for others. Her inner turmoil over her love for Rose (and her subsequent absence) has made Pearl lash out at Steven and the Crystal Gems more than once. Pearl is easily flustered and overwhelmed when confronted by the unknown or when her plans fail, which can lead to her judgment being clouded or cause her to act on impulse instead of rational thinking.

It appears Pearl has taken this to her heart, as she asserted herself against Peridot when she treated Pearl in a degrading tone. This has led her to take drastic actions to prove herself - though, thanks to Garnet's encouragement in "Friend Ship", she has started to take initiatives instead of letting other's words define Pearl herself.

Without anyone to tell her what to do or to depend on her, Pearl feels lost without meaning or value. According to Amethyst in "Reformed", she needs everyone's constant approval to feel secure. In "Friend Ship", she admits she is very dependent on others to validate her, which loops into a strong inferiority complex.
