'I never had any other desire so strong, and so like to covetousness, as that one which I have had always, that I might be master at last of a small house and a large Garden. ~Abraham Cowley, The...
I'm thinking isfp
I fear that despite pouring everything I have into making it through life, that I will fail utterly, and have to be carried off in an ambulance and mumbled about at family gatherings for the rest of...
I had the weirdest dream last night, that I moved to Norway, but I could not find a job anywhere. I couldn't even find anybody else who had a job except selling arts, crafts and furniture. I saw the...
I think they would do fine with them, but it just seems like some of them don't care about having one.
me too
The best vacation is the one I don't have to go on, where I know my family is off having fun while I happily eat what I want, read, get projects done, etc. at home without having to worry about...
You sound eerily like me.
I despise being misunderstood. Sometimes I think I need to be understood more than I need to be loved. It's weird because like you described I spend a lot of time trying to think of the most exact or...
I'm an INFJ and my favorite colors are deep indigo, which reminds me of my inner self, and bright yellow, which draws me out of myself.
I know it's hard to believe sometimes, but you aren't the only one that feels this way. You aren't alone in this.
I totally empathize with everybody around me, especially those I feel are helpless or vulnerable. I've had many a shopping trip ruined by some desperately crying baby who's dressed for a blizzard and...
Feeling kind of happy to see I'm not the only one. College takes up so much of your life, then suddenly it's gone. For a while you are too busy catching up on sleep to notice, but after a while...
I'm extremely heterosexual and have never even thought about becoming otherwise except as a mental exercise to entertain a guy I was with. I'm very emotional, a bigtime feeler, but I'm a big tomboy...
Totally. I find people drawn to me, then repelled by my candor or by my hiding. I think I puzzle people unless they have known me for a long time. My best friends tend to be very laid back,...
I purposely practiced not showing expression when I was a kid because I got really really tired of people saying I looked angry or sad. Now I think my face is stuck that way. I get soooo tired of...
ONE WORD: ESTP They are the natural salesmen of the world. The persuader type, emotionally controlled, approachable, rational, quick-thinking, always one step ahead. I have an ESTP ex and an ESTP...
You know you are INFJ when the harshness, turmoil and decay of the world suddenly become too much, and you come running back to this forum so you can remember, once again, that you aren't the only...
Always the experimenter. (did I spell that right?)
OMG are you my twin sister?
LOL.. so true.
You guys are being so sweet and kind. And making me blush on behalf of all INFJ's. I never knew ENFP's were so kind. I've had a couple of bad experiences with them. The nice ones I know remind me of...
Haha.. I knew YOU would notice :P
I hate it when I do that; keep all the negative things inside, try so hard to be nice to them anyway, then the next thing I hear is how I'm a condescending bitch. I mean :( I try so hard. Maybe it...
My, my, well.. this is certainly a post to feel good about! Thank you sooooooo much.
Cool Idea! For INFJ, how about something abstract and beautiful?
I look like me, only much fatter, and with more wrinkles.
To me empathy means the ability to sense the emotions of people around me, and the inability to keep them from affecting my peace of mind. As long as people around me are calm, I am able to be myself...
Haha. I love this. I thought I was the only one that cleaned one area at a time. I started doing this when I had four young kids and would sometimes become overwhelmed with the sheer amount of work...
You people are scary. Why should we save some random stranger? Because the next person that needs saving may be one of us. There is more to life than looking out for ourselves and those close to...
Let's trade. I wanna move in.
I'm a New Yorker; what're ya gonna do about it?
I admire independence, empathy, intelligence, integrity and wisdom. My fave character is probably Gandalf.
In my opinion, yep. My ESTP son does great in school whenever he wants to. When he doesn't want to, he finds a way to get out of it. ESTP's are great at getting their way, even though they are easy...
I've been a serious cat lover all my life, and I've passed it on to most of my kids. As a result, we now call ourselves the crazy cat people and are overrun.

~~~~~~no~~~~~~
I don't believe there is anything inherently BAD about any of the types. ESFJ's are under-represented here and may have an underdog thing going on. I was married to one for many years and he is still...
This is a painful subject for me to write about, because it involves the actions of family members that I've long forgiven. I was raised in a family of sensors, who were certain there was something...
That's me. I either know it all, or none of it. My grandmother and I were obsessed with this show, but it's not as much fun without her.
~~~~LOLZ~~~~~ (don't we all)
I like this post a lot.
~~agreed~~
They surely do need to be fixed, but what is going to fix them is in hot debate. Personally I think we ought to study what works and follow it, whether it's popular or not. This may include moral...
lol.. always gotta play the nobody cares card, dontcha?
After my major authors class on Melville, I'm not sure I'll be reading this again any time soon, though I might do my thesis on Pierre.
My favorite way of typing people is to see who in my life they remind me of, and to me your relationship with your mom seems the twin of the one I had with my ISTJ mom for many years. There has only...
I have no problem with the point, it's just that I want people to not start any flame wars here, because they are counterproductive. You won't see any posts from Ziistem that aren't insightful and...
We all have to try to be a little bit objective, or this forum will become as angry and hate-filled as so many of the others. We can explore our differences here without fear of rejection or...
I'm not disagreeing with you about his post or how it made you feel. I'm saying this forum is a place to explore new ways of thinking. You can't attack the posters personally or they will not post...'
