Use of "per se"
Hi
Does the use of per se work here?
(B means to tell A that because the latter appears perfect, there is something about him that confuses B.)
A - But why can't I marry her? What flaw do you see in my character?
B - Apparently there is none, which is a flaw per se. You are too good to be true.
Thanks,
Tom

It's a little unusual, but it works for me. I would have used the English in this case: 'in itself'. CJ
