'Deep thought from the book I am reading: In the journey of the soul, the ammunition is always live.
The Syndetic Paradigm: The Untrodden Path Beyond Freud and Jung (I have owned this book for 7 years .... and each time put it down b/c I can barely get through the 2nd chapter. Never before have...
I have grown to hate the theoretical cognitive function-oriented descriptions of this, so I am intentionally avoiding them. What I tend to do though is show enthusiasm to folks I like, to the...
My wife is one, although she doesn't hang out on forums. I don't honestly have many conversations with her about it beyond going to church with her once in a blue moon. (I personally consider myself...
Every unit of thought and every observation in my field of consideration usually has some sort of weighted worthfulness value tagged with it, to use a metaphor I find useful. The thing is, that...
Ditto. An epiphany of sorts. Would love to hear feedback on that.
Fwiw, I have noticed you totally trolling the ENFJ subforum here. As an outsider unfamiliar with your situation, your posts have been sounding pretty much tonedeaf and reek of butthurt inferior-Fe...
That's one way to ask somebody out.
Now this is mysterious.............

No, but I do suspect him to be an STJ of some sort.
I've had great rapport with NTP types... but I've not personally known any NTP women. ENFP's (both genders) I've known have been a lot of fun and easy to relate to. INFP not quite as well. ...
(Assuming you are referring to Portland, OR and not Portland, ME) Portland is beautiful. As long as you're OK with the sun hardly ever shining for many many (winter) months out of the year,...
He's got one perspective on it all. I have been reading (well, really re-reading, as before I never thoroughly read it) Naomi Quenk's Was That Really Me? lately and she has another good...
I read all of PUM (1st) and PUM II. You can safely skip PUM. PUM II has all of it and a lot more IIRC.
Welcome! You should find plenty of info to whet your appetite here :)
Do you find driving (automobile) stressful? I always figured your opposite type (ISTP) is usually stereotyped as a type who loves that kind of thing, so I wondered if the opposite was true for ENFJ....
2008 Subaru Forester (manual, premium ed. which is just a small step up from base but added limited-slip rear differential which I wanted). Great vehicle.
A cup of tea from looseleaf imported direct from China (via aliexpress)... dian hong curled red tea (black tea). Intense sweet malty aroma of prunes and dates... yum
It just occurred to me after reading AesSidhe 's music upliftment thread, I never listen to music to feel better. I listen to music either to induce a trance or introspective state, or to feel worse...
Yeah, I have never found programming experiences in school (only took 1 in college) to be all that ... interesting. All the programming I've done that's stimulated my mind has been my own projects....
The one solution that is the shortest, most efficient, easiest to read is definitely some simplistic thinking IMO. It's an ideal ...... that's rarely ever achieved for much time. (Enter:...
Might as well start them! One in each of the other NT forums... edit: or just one in the main NT forum, whatever you think would garner more results...
Now to add, I do know INTJ programmers who do quite well ... I haven't really had these types of theoretical discussions with them, but I do often wonder how their thought processes differ from...
From the point where you start learning programming, until the point at which you're constructing large projects... You're grokking the architecture of something alien to you, starting with simple...
I think it's totally about Ti, or can be anyhow. Ti is part of what helps us mentally predict the behavior of different programs without having to go through and mentally or physically analyze it...
Pretty good. Still miffed that my kids are waking us up in the middle of the night, but with my first cup of Pu'erh tea down the hatch things should start improving.
Lol the variety is nice, but it ends up being Do I choose something ethnic or just indulge in childhood memories and get pancakes+syrup+butter? Interesting about the beancurd kung pao. I'd...
Welcome!
Welcome!
For my damned kids to be potty trained!! Seriously it's been 12 practically traumatizing months we've been trying to get my oldest trained... yuck
Lol well hope you find time to relax! Ok my turn- Kayak.com basically makes the choices pretty simple... and I've never had to fret over meals b/c I don't even know that most of those airlines...

I do think I would have trouble choosing among that many meals! What are they? (Great detail, please! Let us waste your time in luxury! LOL)
You get meals on the airplane? LOL we barely get snacks on cross-country trips in the US these days :P (stingy bastards!)
After reading the first 1/3rd of your OP and eventually skimming the rest, the first thing that came to mind is No SJ would spend that much effort typing and elaborating on their desire to...
I must have it easy - I've never seen that before! I've seen her angry before but nothing to that extent... I think my wife has a much less stimulated temperament about her though.
Welcome! So the Cafebot doesn't always chime in on these intro threads?
Welcome! It does seem like there are a lot of newcomers here... myself being one
I wonder how feasible it would be to put a temp+humidity sensor inside the handlebar muffs on my motorcycle. Then wirelessly datalog the conditions inside there and try to remember to jot down how...

I think I can relate to some of that ... I am always looking to wind down when I get home, but there's never a chance I get relaxation time until the kids are down (ours are 2 & 3, so it's a little...
For those of you with children, what kinds of experiences related to child-rearing (motherhood or fatherhood) stress you out? There is a whole lot about child-rearing that can stress us out, but I...
This is a bit rough because the ESFJ I have in mind I have not confirmed his type (it's just a strong hunch), but with that caveat delivered... ESFJs will engage in talk about specific events, or...

Hi folks, I've probably read about typology since ~2004 or so, and took a Myers-Briggs test in 2000 (college). I am pretty much solid on INTP, Enneagram is a bit more enigmatic to me ... either 5 or...
I wooed my (now-wife, ENFJ) with a folder portfolio of my best outdoor pics I'd taken .... with a post-it note snuck in the back asking her out on a date. Then I kept up the post-it note motif for a...
Hi folks, new here, my wife's an ENFJ. Of course it goes without saying she has a heart of gold, as I believe you all do ;-) The main thing that gets to me is the manipulative tendencies... they...'
