'OH. My god, thank you for the Youtube link. Seeing the visual makes everything click. Off I go to learn, now that it's not just a jumble of letters. It's all patterns, really, not just...
@Noelle @Robert2928 INFJs are classics at being able to brilliantly imitate extroverts - but only for short periods of time. The phrase Noelle used, I definitely need a lot of alone time to...
Miiight just be me, but really not seeing why everyone is jumping down the OP's throat. He's looking for context and reasons, and just because we - INFJs - aren't dominant Te or whatever (God help...
My grandma tested me when I was about nine and said I was an INTJ, and every test I've taken since has labeled me an INTJ. But the more I haunted the forums here, the more I started wondering if it...
I worked at a portrait studio in Wal-Mart for a few months. My trainer was astonished at how well I did in sales. I always found it uncomfortable, as I was always being pushed to encourage very...
Nuuuu, don't feel bad! D: I'll just miss being able to compare myself to the badass INTJ stereotype but I'd much rather be right and awesome than wrong and a weirdo INTJ thing or... I don't even....
My worst fears! *sobs* But that was a pretty good idea of why you got what you did. And it makes sense. So you think the 5w6 is why I keep getting typed as INTJ? Even my mom agreed with it, but...
Hello, PerC! I've been re-questioning my type rather consistently over the last few weeks. My main motivation for pegging it down is the fact that I don't feel comfortable posting any more as an INTJ...
I've always had the joking idea of book smarts versus street smarts, the difference between being able to ace a test and being able to think on your feet and survive situations. Both are...
Just a little update. My friend's breaking point was hit last night when his stepfather nearly hit him. His mom stepped in before it actually happened (thank God) and tried to throw the stepfather...
Age Range? 20-24 Employed, Unemployed, Student? Part time employed Live with Parents, Roommates, Alone, with SO? With SO Live in/originally from US? Or what country/regions? Born Ohio, US,...
Interesting thread. I think I was raised lucky - both my parents were Lutherans, but they taught me out of the Bible, and all of my family (and my pastor) were really 'into' study and research and...
Welcome to PerC, dme! Hope you enjoy your stay. We've even got a swimming pool... though I wouldn't go in it, 's in the basement...
Working part-time in retail at the moment. It's a positive and a negative for me. (Nice thread btw) Pros: Consistent, steady work. I know what to expect. (Good for social anxiety issues.) Easy...
Aaaah. Because I'm paranoid and over-thinking everything? But ah. Thank you. XD
Holy crap, you just made me re-question my MBTI type. Fuuuuuuu. But! But but but! I can relate to the sensor! Overthinking is the bane of everyone!
This is by far one of the most enthusiastic and amusing introduction threads I've seen, to date. Win.
One, you complain about someone's illiteracy, then miss a comma. Two, your ghetto sucks. If you're gonna do something, do it right. That was painful. Three, you need to work on your sense of...
I was wondering, too. Must applaud your titling abilities, though I also think that INTJs can come off as bubbly sometimes. When they have too little sleep, too much caffeine, and things suddenly...
Yurp. Time to just drop every social skill you learned by being around one particular personality type and be your own, highly-social INTJ self. Yurp. (basically what Alx7 said. but the sarcasm...
I put my phone on vibrate for my alarm and keep it under my pillow, and have for the last 3-4 years now. The sound is so jarring that I've never overslept the alarm. Of course, by the time I was...
http://jte0403.edublogs.org/files/2010/12/telescreen-2hhq46i.jpg There's a good read in the imgur link. Picture is too massive to post on the forum. I implore anyone considering buying the new...
Just finished my book. Obsessively reading forums. Should I write a letter to my sister before she leaves for Europe? Browse for another book? Make a diagram of how INTJs think? I'd like to do all of...
Okay, I don't feel so odd for experiencing that strange brain worrying/physically fine thing. I never managed to master myself enough to start studying. But I'll throw some ideas out there, see if it...
I have to agree with John on this one. I do have certain subjects that I know to avoid because they arouse intense negative emotions. I'm diagnosed major depression but toughing my way without meds -...
@teddy564339 Again and again what you're saying makes sense when applied to my friend. As much as it's hurting him now (and has hurt him, badly, in the past) - that sticking out bad relationships...
Yeeeesssss... yeeeeesssss... join us, Precious, join us... *goes off to cough in a corner* Sorry, no idea where that came from. Welcome!
Alright, should have added that in originally, apologies. Everything you're saying sounds like him. He's the silent support; family and his few friends are his life. He'd never say it, but I'm...
I didn't want to write a novel in the OP, but figured I'd need to explain that eventually. My friend is 20 and dedicated to his family; he's stated firmly that he wants to stay by them and...
Very glad I decided to post. It's not a pretty picture, but it makes sense when put into the situation. Part of this is me realizing that I really can't do much... thank you. And thank you for...
You know, I don't know. I'd go back and read his comments again, to be sure, but I really don't want the headache that'll come with it at this point. Because, logic. Needs more.
Dear ISFJs of the forums: I need help with my best friend. He's an ISFJ. Both of us are reclusive at heart, so we're mainly internet/texting friends with the occasional awkward phone call (we...
Got it! Thanks for the clarification, much appreciated. :3 And you're doing very well with the English! I only asked because of the Germany bit.
@DarkBarlow Yeah, that sounds about right. I'm going with that. As a side note, did anyone notice that when the OP wasn't garbling science and logic, he was 1) Insulting us, the commentators,...
*whispers* He's not kidding. >.> <.< Welcome to the crazy robot boat!
Welcome welcome welcome m'dear. Actually, I've heard of Leipzig, though I couldn't place it on a map - you're a nonnative English speaker? You're definitely an INT J/P but I can't tell about the...
<3 I like you INTPs too, I think. And more than happy to be considered crazy! Was thinking he was more around 12 or so, but even with that taken into account...
I'm at a loss. Don't know where to begin. So... INTJs are crazy robots. The OP is too emotional. *sniffs in disdain*
Hands down, people who insist on trying to manipulate me. Even worse, when they do it in an annoying fashion or try to blackmail me with it. Those are the only times when I've completely fit the full...
Jeans or comfortable formal pants, darker colored dress shirts or t-shirts. Sneakers. Flats if I need to dress up. And skirts/dresses if I'm feeling feminine, because frankly, they're fun, and I like...
I was just complaining to my husband about this yesterday. Yearly review at the job, and every category was Meets expectations with a higher-than-anticipated pay raise. My thoughts were, in this...
Oh pff, that one was easy. Nowhere. Stayed at my desk for the entire interval. e_e;; Unless the 'go' is metaphorical - even then, easy question. Here. Unless we're talking about 'go' in a more...
FootJoyGolf spiderman616 Thank you for the welcomes! And especially thank you for the timer advice. I swear it was 4 in the afternoon when I started looking on here, it's past midnight... where did...
Ma'am, you might want to reevaluate continuing the thread here. As robots, INTJ's aren't going to sugar-coat what they see when their advice is asked for. And the title of your thread says Don't...
Roger that! We can be new together~
New to the forums, but I'll give this a whirl since I'm here. Based on myself and what I've been reading... How does an INTJ's mind work? Okay, I don't know how to answer this at all. My only...
To not have a rational mind? I'm not agreeing or disagreeing with most of the concept of your post, just that bit right there. Guess my personality testing - and the testing of a few other folks on...
k3vin : Sorry for the double post, but hopping in here for a moment. An interesting contrast to point out. The OP, in what you quoted, was discussing the fact that she learned more about herself, not...
I just want to say - dang, girl, I admire you. I usually stay out of religious threads just because I've never seen anyone swayed by the arguments from either side. Getting up and saying that in...
What a way to greet the forums! XD Sorry if I sound phony, I'd like to believe I'm actually mature and just trying to figure out how to fit into the new place since I'm a newbie too. (Dunno if you...'
