'No bias necessary to make that objective point. It's a pretty stellar group of people around here, the likes of which we could present any issue to and receive viable response. That warmth is very...
I hate shit like that. Back when I was in high school having serious problems with depression, my sister called me abnormal because of how I was acting. She literally used that word, and I was...
Ugh, I know! I was so pissed a few years ago when I looked at the label and found out one of my favorite drinks has stupid HFCS in it. Food and drink just need to be healthier in general. =(
Thanks for pointing this out. I've usually done the same thing without realizing it. When speaking to someone, I approach F problems by remaining cool and rational. For the T problems, I'm warm...
Agreed with this. Good luck figuring out anybody's age on the internet these days without a picture or confirmation of where that person is in life educationally. You have children who type like...
Realism with a dash of negativity. Avoid the bad people and manipulators. Avoid them like the plague they are. You'll always have to fend for yourself; that's how life works. But there are others out...
Hahahaha, you definitely are. This is exactly how I feel about my current girlfriend. She's never gonna have it the way she does with me, and she knows so. Thousand bucks APIECE says each of...
Noooooooooo. You can't do this. It defies what we are. There are lots of things to abandon in life, but that passion sure as hell ain't one of 'em. You know that saying how there's someone out...
That sounds really, really cool. You must've been a neat kid. I acted similarly, though I was such a homebody. I would act out these fantasy wars in my room with those big bags of green plastic...
Honestly? I wouldn't be any different at all. The only difference in my life is that I wouldn't be posting on this subforum. I've never relied on personality types to validate myself. Only to...
My imaginary friends were mostly video game characters and people who played Legos with me. They were awesome. I was terribly imaginative. It sounds stereotypical, but they faded away as I...
Well, the way you worded your first question, I assumed you were implying how to differentiate these concepts in viewing another person. Am I wrong? I figured the entire difficulty would lie in the...
Nice. I just can't stand being perceived in a way that implies I don't know how to light a fire in a relationship. Like I'm some boring stoic or something. Before I'd fallen in love for the...
lmao at that strip ofana Makeup's an interesting issue. I'd rather people (mainly, the people who use a lot) not wear it at all. I can't express enough how jarring it is to see someone who ALWAYS...
I wouldn't put that out of the realm of possibility, though I think each applies in different situations. I've seen people change quite drastically over time. Becoming more withdrawn and internal...
BAM. This is me. It blows me away how nobody in my life except the people I date are even remotely aware of my romanticism. I'm easily the most romantic guy in a relationship I know, but that's just...
Capricorn 4 LYF. But no, no connection.
Hahaha, same here (well, except for the Doris part), since I began posting last week.
I'm going to reference a post of mine from another topic to summarize my thinking on trust in relationships. I think it's important to learn from each relationship and take something meaningful...
I think this applies to most personality tests. I try to take mine at a moment I'm not particularly down or up. From a neutral stance, I find I can answer questions with considerably more unbiased...
I think the unfortunate fact of the matter is that random other people often encourage impatience. You know those situations where you're dealing with someone, and the other person/people you...
Just wanted to comment on this bit. Socializing on the internet is ludicrously powerful, based on the idea that it is a place where we can be alone together. Never has a more true oxymoron surfaced.
Hmm, all this agreement makes me wonder if I'm of the more patient variety around here. Honestly, I learned one of the most important, applicable lessons I could ever hope to learn in life at age...
Cool idea. But everyone is so distanced. =(
I was obsessed with everything mentioned on this page as kid. Pokemon, Digimon, Turtles, Power Rangers... Damn, I really smiled when I saw this topic. I'm still pretty Poke-obsessed. I put well...
Right-handed, right-footed. The entire right half of my body is basically stronger/more skillful than the left half. Except for my brain, maybe :tongue: But I'd really love to be ambidextrous. I...
Wow, that's truly something to celebrate. Your friend has more self-control and diligence to his values than just about anybody. Respect. It's sad that most people can only see shallow criticism...
Might I suggest that your problem could possibly be summarized by not having found your passion in life? Those are all things I've thought and felt at some point, and not having found what really...
You know, a lot of people around here would genuinely listen to/converse with you. Try not to feel so alone, but I completely empathize. As a man myself, I totally agree that most of my sex...
What does accomplishments mean to you? They mean a lot to me because they mean a lot to people I care about. Unfortunately, because they don't matter to me, I haven't devoted myself to them. And...
Hey, it gets better. Accuser in question was a stereotypical NT rife in insecurity. = I would know; he's still my friend!
I've been (mis)interpreted as selfish and emotionally shallow (can you believe that?) at times in life, solely due to my own reserved nature in dealing with people. I honestly couldn't care...
My number one choice, BY FAR, would be the ability to reverse time.
The color scheme is just BLEGH. Kinda lacks personality....which is tragic given the site name.
You're waaaaay too decisive.
I've never smoked weed, and I think it smells like shit. It really oughta be legal, though.
I confess that this topic is the most simultaneously cathartic, depressing, and encouraging compendium of the human condition I have ever seen in my life. Ever.
I felt the same way when I finally got my type pegged down and started posting on, specifically, the INFP board. Just being around people who think and feel in a similar manner is so, so...
Funny you mention nicotine gum. I work in retail, and I know several people who are hopelessly addicted. There's something really messed up about replacing cigarettes with a significantly more...
I'm not even the intended audience, but: First off, you're the teach! Regardless of what age group you're working with, those people are going to be forced to obey/respect/listen to you, because...
What dancininrain is describing is not only natural, but completely necessary in the life of ANY sane individual. There isn't a person on the planet who acts the same in the following situations:...
I try to apply different perspectives to everything regularly; I see it as a basic principle of being open-minded. It's such a great enabler to see issues in different light. But yes, as you...
So basically being petty? I'm the same way, though I've gotten a lot better about it. It's definitely one of the downsides. I feel ya.
Apparently INFPs are gorgeous as all hell. Ladies and gentlemen, alike. I'm going to post pictures of me holding something and then my eye because I can. Maybe real pics some other time =P ...
I dunno, what's actually wrong with this? I personally think this is much better than the opposite: I don't ever want to see myself being emotionless and cold. Being receptive to people's feelings...
I dunno. Parenting is concept that really, really used to creep me the hell out. Just imagining someone like myself who still has so much to fix and accomplish in life...imagining that same person...
Stereotypes are so, SO dumb, and their existence perpetuates these kinds of threads. When will people ever realize that MBTI types themselves are a relatively vague generalization of people's...
I strive for a life along the lines of what IAmOrangeToday seeks. That is: a simple, family-oriented life with a lovely wife and kids. I wish to live a comfortable life not in excess. Financially...
Six is the equivalent of sacrificing for the greater good. Yet, seven is the right thing to do.
Yes I'm quoting myself. Confessional update: My girlfriend and I have been at some REALLY fucked up kind of odds for several weeks following some outburst fallout piece of shit. As I clearly...'
