'Dear ISTJ mother, When I started my very first romantic relationship back in January, I kept it a secret. Not because I'm still in the closet, but because you have a way of turning everything...
Dear INFJ girlfriend, Let's not talk about this anymore is not a solution, it's an avoidance of the problem. That conversation sort of left me feeling hurt and slammed out and the thing of it...
*sigh* So since my dad has abandoned ship with my family emotionally, that leaves me in a situation where I am now in desperate need of a new therapist friend. Being the therapist friend for...
Some people will tell you that, if you have to ask, you're not in love. But I tend to believe the old adage that you don't know what you have until it's gone, mostly because I know the confusion...
Hey. So this is my first time in this thread I think. I hope I'm not interrupting anything, but I could kind of use some advice...or at least an ear to vent at. I struggle with depression. I know...
Thank you very much. I come here to post because it's safe here XD I don't recall posting in this forum recently though. I posted something at the Dear Subject thread. Anyways, I appreciate your...
Dear ISTJ Mother, You really, really, really hurt me today. I accept that everything in life is a major fricking deal to you. But just because it's not a big deal to me that my car is kinda...
When I wrote my last message, I hadn't seen this one. As for the point of view, I'm thinking of either first person or third-person limited (I don't do so well at first-person).
There are people who fantasize about menial, laborious physical work? Okay. That was new information. XD I guess my issue is trying to make sure I balance out the logical traits so that he...
Sure, I can show you what I have written down for personality (I doubt his height would be that interesting to you), although I warn you that it may be vague (?) so if you want more specifics, feel...
Hi there! I am working on a story right now and I'd like my main character to be INTP. I wondered how actual INTPs might describe their personality and their traits, and how a fictional character...
Dear Universe, I'm generally a good person. So please stop giving me such shitty luck. My good karma needs to come back, like now. Sincerely, A depressed Walmart employee
Dear Likely-IXFP coworker, Thank you for letting me ramble to you for an hour and a half tonight. I know we've hardly spoken before now, and I'm sure I probably annoyed you, but I've been stuck...
Dear ISTJ mother, My sister is not even fifteen yet and you're pushing her to try to get a job. Let me tell you something- this is not. her. fight. I know we're struggling to keep the bills...
Dear ISTJ mother, I'm sorry that my storylines, philosophies, television shows, stories and games aren't interesting to you. But frankly, I can only talk about reality for so long. No, I don't...
Dear Once Upon a Time (and Netflix), Thank you for being here to occupy my time and mind while the friend I have/had a crush on was busy planning her heterosexual wedding with her heterosexual...
You're lucky, mine would revolt and murder me! Dear Work Friend, First of all- please stop making it so difficult for me to pretend I don't know you like me. I know you really like me and...
Dear Newest Character, I am so, so sorry that it was your misfortune that you became MY character. I came in like a wrecking ball to fuck shit up and I'm taking no prisoners. Sincerely, I...
Dear INFP friend, Um...I was dead serious when I asked you what you're so fascinated by. Let me re-cap: I am still living with my mom, in a house full of animals Non-committal college student...
... I just can't stand myself lately. I'm so frustrated. I know it's the depression creeping up on me again, that I'm over-whelmed with little things that wouldn't usually bother me. I have no...
Dear Newest Friend, I know you've been busy and stressed out with all your wedding plans lately, and I've been pre-occupied with my sister and this short class as well, so we haven't had much time...
Dear Inner Child, I'd say I don't really know what's going on with you lately, but it would be a lie. Still, you need to stop being so cute and cuddly. I know you want to be seen and snuggled...
Alright, so, I (an INFJ) actually have a question about us as a type. It seems to be a commonality that INFJs as a type take longer to trust. Yet, I'm not exactly certain what it is I don't trust...
Dear dad, I'm sorry the only reason I've contacted you in several months was to ask for money. ...I'm sorry I lied to you about the reason why I needed the last hundred. If it were up to me,...
Dear new INFP friend, Your interest in me is starting to get frankly weird. I'm usually the one on your end, and I'm starting to feel like I'm slacking here. You shouldn't be the one doing all...
Excellent points. Although I don't know too much about Soso right now to draw any stark contrast. I also can't debate you on any points related to Pe or Pi because I've only vaguely heard of them....
I will try to explain it as I see it... Se is the function related to taking in information from the present moment and responding to it. Piper makes decisions as things become relevant. I don't...
That is a definite possibility. I have some significant difficulty understanding Si itself, but I know it deals with the way things happened in the past in regard to minutia and details. That one...
That wasn't what I meant. I'm sorry, I should explain it better. What I meant was that, if her dietary concerns were part of an NF idealism rather than an SF trend, she would probably have brought...
Okay, so, I haven't done hardcore analyses of every single character yet. I have my suspicions but nothing to back them up- however, I've been developing an opinion on Piper and if I'm wrong I want...
Dear new INFP friend, It is not very often that I meet someone as eager to share the limelight as you. Most often, I can simply deflect the questions enough so that I'm learning significantly more...
Dear Mother, I've pretty much decided not to tell you this in real life (except maybe once, quite a while ago, though I don't remember clearly) but you seem to have figured it out anyways. Even...
Hi there. If you couldn't tell by the type match under my name, I'm an INFJ. I've recently made a friend who's an INFP, and I'd like a little advice. Err...forgive me if this is a repeat question,...
Dear ESTP friend, I don't really know what to tell you. My mom is wound tighter than a navy seal knot and...and I don't understand her, either. I don't know why she got so upset over our plans...
Dear ESTP friend, You are a really, really, really good friend. You're sweet, we have plenty in common, and we talk almost all the time. I know you consider me your best friend, because you've...
Dear Neighbors, My sister didn't do anything to you, and your daughter didn't do anything to us. They're best friends and there's no reason why they can't stay that way. It was you who went behind...
Dear ENFP friend, Thank you for reminding me indirectly that friends don't have to agree with each other on everything to be friends. Now please...stop typing me novel-length responses on...
Dear ISTJ mother, Stop calling everyone and their brother, giving them 2% of the story, and then accepting their input on it. It's whore-ish. Get off the goddamn phone and talk to me, I need to...
Dear ENFX dad, You have been chopped. We feel that you're severely lacking, in many areas. You are controlling, demanding, and obsessive in a sick way. We wish we could say this was a hard...
Dear Food Network, On the off-chance that I'm not a lettuce farmer, a fish farmer, an herb gardener, a butcher or a hunter... Where the hell am I supposed to get all these ingredients?! ...
C) Yeah, I've heard that the more you advance in education, the more iNtuitive it becomes. I'm in college, and I have to say I agree with that assessment. I think it's because a lot of higher...
No, we don't need compliments. Never, ever compliment an introvert, it pisses us off. I have never been angrier than when someone tells me I'm talented at something or that they enjoy something I do....
So...I take it you feel that a lot of people have mis-typed themselves as iNtuitives when they are actually Sensors due to not understanding questions on the test or applying the questions to...
This thread looked interesting. I figured I'd go ahead and answer any questions you have, though the relationships I have with ESFPs is strictly platonic- so I can't say much about a romantic...
Dear ESFP friend, I kinda figured our anime marathon thing wasn't gonna happen tonight about an hour ago. I can handle that, but you know, I went ahead and joined a call with you and your friends...
My dear ESFP friend, I value our time together. I value our friendship. I value the way you can be enthusiastic over my random ideas and encourage me to pursue them. But I can not, I will not,...
This thread is a place for INFJs who want to seek solace in the guidance or even just the kind words of another person. INFJs are often called The Counselors, (we may also be called The...
Dear ISTJ mother, Please, please, please, please- for the love of Celestia- snap out of your Ne-fueled panic attack! Or panic attack-fueled Ne rampage! I don't care what it is, but I can't...
I wish this world worked like it does in My Little Pony, where everyone can do whatever makes them the happiest and still earn a decent, happy living.
You have a pretty good idea of what your life should be like 10 or 15 years from now; whether or not you want kids, how many, what gender, single/coupled/married, what you want the relationship to be...'
