The tragic thing about Jasper is that she herself is very atypical. I assume that's why she was able to wipe the floor with Garnet the first time: Jasper fights in a much different way from your typical Quartz soldier, so Garnet wasn't able to predict her attacks initially. She also seems to be something of a rogue or loner, but she is ultimately consumed by rage and bitterness long before she becomes physically corrupted.
Her basically begging Lapis Lazuli to fuse with her again also suggests some degree of self-loathing: that relationship was horrible for both of them, but Jasper is so obsessed with succeeding she views that as preferable to failure. She views even her own corruption as preferable to failure, even though they're the same.
