'I used to be. In high school. When my parents had money. Now that I'm an adult and have to buy everything on my own- idk when the last time was that I bought something I didn't need for practical...
My mom is an isfj with a newly married ISTP husband. It's really hard seeing her in her struggles bc I've had the same initial struggles with my ISTP bf, but it's almost like she expects him to...
Haha I just looked at mine and they are the same as yours. That is odd and thanks for making me aware of a small wonder. Sorry I don't have an answer.
Of course it can be mutual. Maybe you just haven't found the right person yet. I've been in three love relationships. The first, was mutual. Second, only he loved me. My current is mutual. I...
I nannied five kids ages 2-12 for over a year. They clung to me. I was their favorite adult figure and they would (sadly) ask if I could be their mom. Their parents were workaholics and had spousal...
This. To a 'T'. P.S. Ace Face, I love all your posts! I usually don't even respond to something if you've posted b/c you've already explained exactly what I'd say. :)
1- three favorite activities -writing -drinking -smoking 2- representative place -beach 3-idk what anonyminity means but if it's like it sounds I'd rather be it than the latter. 4-who I want...
Dear istj sister, Get your hypocritical head out of your stuck up ass. Enfp
My view: my sister and I were very sheltered. Because of that, and we've both talked about it, when we moved out, we went crazy with experiencing alcohol to an extreme. To this day, my sister still...
I think I've lost certainty in what my inner world specifically looks like. If you'd ask that up until 5 years ago, I'd be surfing and listening to jack Johnson while my mind made new movies of...
Meh. Enfp here. Food gives me energy to live life during the day if I remember! But to cook? I'd rather watch my boyfriend cook bc he's passionate about it and it makes me happy watching him do what...
This makes me so sad. I too believe strangers are more trusted than most friends. It seems a lot of people are plain sell outs. Not real, just out for their benefit at whatever moment and do as...
That's actually very insightful, I've never though about it in those specific ways. I'm Ne-dom and my sister is istj and we can NOT get along! (although my mom isfj and I get along great) Im gna...
Agh me too!!! I dot think its a confidence thing at all though. Question asked: what makes you better than x? (for a job or whatever) Methinks: I don't know this x, I wonder if they are...
Yes, it seems common. I think it's just one of those things where you have to force yourself to keep them at an arms length away, we have to be the guarded ones with them, contrary to our want to...
So agree with mendi. As a parent especially, his biggest want is to know you are going to be ok on your own. My mom is an isfj. She does that same stuff, but me being a feeler, we talk about the whys...
So here's now my problem: I'm the go-to for a certain associate and my manager. They both clash, but don't know how to talk to the other. To me, they make big deals out of nothing. They just need to...
How old are you?
Idk, that gets old. I figure for a holiday I should get him something different, no?
I know it's like, less than a week away, I've been busy. Dont judge me. Every year, I have the hardest time getting gifts for my dad and brother who are both istp's. They are both very practical...
Happy birthday!!! (:
Aw, I've never had much luck with estp's either. That's sad. I am superficial friends with some, an I care about them, but in general they usually piss me off. I'm not one to play the games most of...
I think that way ALL THE TIME. Seriously. I've just cut back from blurting it all out due to all the blank/wtf expressions I always get in response.
Uh yeah, my istj sister and I can't be in the same building for more than 30 minutes. I attribute it to HER mood swings though! We can text nicely and care very much about the other, but she can...
I think when I was younger, I was way crazy and hyper. I also am on meds for ADHD only since my adult years, so that may contribute to me not being hyper crazy very often anymore. Esfp's I...
I heart them, obviously!!! My bf is one, so is my blood brother, dad, step bro and possibly step dad. But really, it's mostly bc they're genuine and not fake in any form. (:
Can... No MUST only agree, but. Agree isn't strong enough the word.
I also am like this... To an extent! I am very decisive when it comes to relationships, short term career goals, and anything having to do with family. That's not to say I don't sleep in or...
Hehe thanks for not interrupting :P
Rejection? It flies over my head. Unless its someone I already care very much about. And that takes a very long time usually. I've only cared that much about two people outside my family. ...
Lol, think of it like... Ok, take the stereotype of mechanic for instance (bc we are quite opposite). Ive rehabbed houses and helped my dad fix cars since I was little, so I know a little bit about...
I agree with Aceface. I don't think you said anything wrong, just your observation that you only said bc you care. She does seem a little... Mm, troubled... Not the right word, but I'd rather not...
Yes. But that's not type related. It's well known that there is a big correlation between stress and getting sick. When you're stressed, your body panics and goes kinda haywire trying to get it...
(^^Lol! I love all you istp's!) Dear ISTP, I will never be bored with you. Your vm with that song is so true and it brought tears to my smiling eyes listening to it. Right now, you have...
Dear clutch master and slave cylinder, I hate you for making my left leg and right arm so sore. I'm pulling the plug on you this weekend. Sincerely, Your fed up driver
I don't think it's a personality thing as much as a genetics/body type thing. I am enfp who hates cold more than maybe anyone (seriously- it physically hurts so bad), but I bet anyone regardless of...
Idk my Moms eannagram type, but she's an isfj and is a lot like both of the types you listed. She is overwhelmingly caring, wants the best for everyone, gives the benefit of the doubt in any...
I'm enfp. I visit ISTP, infj, intj, and enfp normally. I don't mean to, but I tend to stay away from esj's, esp's, and sfp's. Idk why and I mean no offense. I have definitely read...
I loathe clothes. But in this weather, I layer upon layer them. I can't function when I'm cold. And I'm often cold. When I lived alone, I'd just crank the heat up and go nude or near nude. When...
I prefer to eat healthy. I feel better making healthier choices, like whole wheat over white, fruit or veggies over chips, etc, bc if your body can perform better with less junk, why do it different?...
Everyone uses all functions, but it's what comes naturally, how they instinctively think about things, that determined what they actually are. My little brother is an ISTP, but we often talk about...
Yep, dating an ISTP (: it's ideal for me bc he is nothing I'll ever understand, but we both trust each other tremendously and even through miscommunications we can work them out and he's just as...
Welcome! Glad you stopped in to introduce yourself to us (:
Dear isfj mom, I love you dearly and have the utmost respect for you, but it is extremely frustrating when you have these early morning plans to involve me in, you don't tell me until you wake me...
Yeah, and no offense to anyone who does, but brown nosers rub me so wrong and in the long run they seem to show their true colors eventually and leave a bad taste on people's view of them. Opposite...
Dear chinotto, Me too!!!!! (Shhh!) Enfp
Yep, did this a lot in high school, then more open after until the divorce, when I moved back in with my mom she was remarried and we now have his two boys to live with too. I've come to realize...
I'm glad there are some people who thinks its cute or funny- it can be quite embarrassing around some less accepting of our obliviousness!
I think the word stare holds a different meaning than does gaze. The gaze is something I'm very familiar with and adore. It's a meaningful thing. I don't know if I'd like it if it was a total...
I'm enfp 7w8, had no idea we weren't typical enfp's. I really want the time and/or enthusiasm to research more on eanngram but I have yet to learn much about it. SP... Why does that seem...'
