Oh, hell no!

I'm really sorry to hear that you're hurting so much and that you've been having such a rough time with loneliness and the like. I do agree 100% with InTheRockies, though. My Christian advice...

I'm guilty of whipping my phone out in public in an attempt to make myself look busy. I seem to attract random strangers who want to tell me all sorts of things I don't want, or need, to know. I...

I agree with Blindfolded Miles and I like what you wrote, it was clear and non-accusatory. Personally, I like emails and texts because it gives me the opportunity to process and then clearly respond...

I don't have issues with people setting boundaries. My concern is why they're setting a certain boundary. When I care about someone I want to take care of them the way they want to be taken care of...

Yes, I had noticed. I never looked too closely into it though, so thanks for posting :happy:

Jeremy8419 and InTheRockies The way I understand it, there's HSP and there's Sensory Processing Sensitivity (SPS). They're not exactly the same thing - one is the natural extension of the other....

Great insight, great advice. Double thumbs up - if I had a third thumb I'd throw that one up too!

They always are :dry:

I'm exactly the same. It's hard to explain what it is or how it works, but the 'unspoken' relationship is so fulfilling. I feel like the people who have managed to engage me on that level are the...

Yay! :happy:

First, I'm sorry. I really wish you didn't have all that going on :sad: Second, I don't think you just get over childhood things - at least that's my experience. It's like, whenever someone...

Oh my gosh, that is so horrible! I has tears :crying: People can be so cruel sometimes it can be hard to fathom. I'm so sorry all this happened to you xx

This is me to a T. I feel like I flip between to two depending on... something... haven't determined what said 'something' is... I'm not sure if I'm predominantly one or the other. I really feel...

I'm like this. There are a few people I know that are (at least from my point of view) inconsiderate of their impact on others and I always feel like I'm coming up behind them, smoothing over the...

Most of the above - also, when I'm in a romantic relationship I blush A LOT. He doesn't have to do anything or say anything. He just has to stand there and my whole body will blush :blushed: It's...

Wow, everyone here has pretty much said everything that I have to say for myself. I'll add that I'm always striving for the ideal. I have a very strong and very fixed vision of how things should...

It would seem blushing is contagious... Do you think if we were all standing in a circle the pink would just go round and round like some kind of Mexican Blush-Wave?

Stop, you make me blush... :tongue:

This is me all smiles... Hoping it won't come out humongous - I don't know how to shrink it :unsure: 290346

This post is fantastic!

My ISFJ friend is a real commandant for being on time - for everything! If we're going to a casual social occasion like a party or a barbeque and I show up so much as 10 minutes after my specified...

I wouldn't mind trying an ENTP on for size :wink:

'You would do that' 'That sh*t only happens to you' 'You're too nice/trusting/naive' 'This one's a real sweetie' 'You're too judgemental, you need to learn to compromise'

Yes, I get this frequently. I also watch people's mouths when they talk. I find if I look people in the eyes for too long my mind loses track of what they are saying, but if I look away I appear...

This is my thinking exactly. Also, I want to be loved and taken for who I am - not being myself would be counterproductive. I second that. I never try to attract men, I've always felt like...

1. Blood transfusion. Save the patient or respect the families religious beliefs and effectively let her die? Save patient. 2. The resume. Hope for the best OR destroy your competitor's resume....

Haha! I read all 34 pages of this thread and laughed my ass off the entire way through. There's nothing like a good, heavy dose of bat-shit crazy to top off your Sunday afternoon. Please, don't...

I bet you're not :) I've realised many of the people who do not appreciate me the way I wish they would simply don't value those things that I bring to a relationship. It's not that they're selfish...

I'm with you on this. I haven't looked too closely at the whole 'Ideal Match' thing so I might be so grossly ill-informed that my thinking on this is completely irrelevant, but I don't see how you...

Thank you for your input :happy: I do know a lady who shares your views. She'll attend the funeral of someone she's never met in order to support someone she knows even if they didn't expressly...

Honestly, these people make me feel like I'm working in the Twilight Zone.

Haha! Great thread! When charities call my phone and ask me if it's a good time to talk I politely tell them 'No, I'm sorry. It's not a good time right now, but if you call me back at...

Hi All! I was trying real hard not to write a novel... as you can see, I failed! I would love it if you would read the whole thing, but if you just can't bring yourself to do it I bolded the...

Awww... That gave me the fuzzies...

So that's why I can't stand half the people I come across?!... Tonight, I sleep! You, sir, are my hero. I wanted to say something intelligent, but yea... it's not happening... So I'm just...

John 10: 4 And when he putteth forth his own sheep, he goeth before them, and the sheep follow him: for they know his voice. 5 And a stranger will they not follow, but will flee from him: for...

This, actually, would be my ideal.

Yes, absolutely.

Yeeshburgers... I think I'm far too tired for this level of soul-searching, but I'll take a crack at it anyway... I voted 'Someone who is more emotionally oriented, caring and compassionate'. ...

Merry Christmas and a happy New Year everyone xx And Happy Birthday and Best Wishes to aHumanRenaisance!

I agree. It's all about perception which will always be vulnerable to inaccuracy for a variety of reasons. In my experience, under-valuing Ni is unhealthy. But I think the same thing can be said...

This is very interesting - thanks Winegums!

I couldn't agree more. Thanks for your input :happy:

Thanks for this, Stavrogin :happy: I definitely agree that it's always there - at least that's been my experience. But I got it in my head that my Ni saw things differently from other people and...

Whoops, my bad. Doesn't meme what I was thinking it memes lol Never mind, carry on...

Maybe this is why you find it so difficult to find a woman on your level.

Maybe it's just me, but I think that's pretty clear... She's telling you to keep doing what you're doing and don't worry about making her uncomfortable because she'll let you know if you do. ...

:sad:
