MBTI

Defender

Sentinels ISFJ

Very dedicated and warm protectors, always ready to defend their loved ones.

'I'm exactly the same way; 2-3 friends I would hang out with regularly, 1 really close friend, and a lot of people who I could be closer to if I wanted to be. (I say would b/c I just moved and I'm...

Try not actively 'thinking' about it for a bit?

In the town I'm from... (I start a lot of vents off this way...) Psychology 101 at the local community college consisted solely of watching the entire series of Men Are From Mars, Women Are...

A whole lot of people liked the movie, and I could go into great detail about the plot and underlying messages but I lack the interest or motivation to do so. Maybe it's people's unwillingness...

Hey now, don't put words in my mouth...

If everyone liked it, it wouldn't be so great...

I say I'm sorry, because I don't want to hurt other people... and sometimes I don't know how what I am going to say is going to affect them, so I say 'sorry' to try to cover my bases.

I do it all the time, Squirrely :cool:

Idk, sorry.

I'm working on opening up to people, thank you so much for that.

If you want to attack people that you don't know, I suggest you do it away from here as well.

haha...I was joking. The opposite of disorder is order...I was saying there's nothing wrong with me. Now I'm regretting even making this thread. Sometimes I just like to get stuff off my chest; I...

Grrrrr.....

Well, I've never heard of that-- thanks for the heads up, captain. EDIT: If there's a reverse avoidant attachment disorder, that would be more close. I am just more careful now.

I'm scared as hell.

I accidentally have you wrapped around my finger... now what do you want me to do? Flick you off?

My cube was huge and made out of water, the ladder is propped against it and runs the entire length of the cube. The horse is running towards me, and the flowers cover the entire desert floor (that's...

From Britain... yeah, not so much.

'Cause I'm an ISFJ... I like to have someone to take care of :wink:

So, something I've been hearing frequently is how much guys like independent girls... Being one, I can tell you all is not rainbows and sunshine. When you know how to erect walls to take care and...

I wasn't really talking about blood and guts... I had a business agreement with someone, and they reneged on their part of the deal. Now he's demanding something I can't give him without putting...

Have you ever been in a position where no matter what option you took, the only outcome for everyone is the absolute worst? I'm not talking about a slow, dramatic ending like Hamlet or the story of...

It will get better, and it won't feel so foreign anymore. I am so happy for you. Now I suggest you get some sleep, before you get overwhelmed.

YAY!!! You don't need a reason... just let it go.

try not to be so hard on yourself

Why would that make you want to write less? No one cares if you make a mistake... even if people give you a rough time about it, that's because of their own insecurities. ...look at all my mistakes...

You obviously have a lot of people rooting for you, School-- just thought that needed to be pointed out.

No, no... it wasn't you-- it was Fern. Your English is better than most Americans I know, btw.

grrr..... (practicing anger control now.......)

Moonious, I can't say exactly how to meditate, because I believe it's a different experience for everyone. I do know that you don't have to sit cross-legged and chanting. All you have to do is be...

Not cool.

Keep me updated, missy.

Screw it... I was diagnosed with anorexia at 13. By 15 I had visited the local psych facility twice, for one long week each time. I left there with bulimia that I struggled with until I was 23. 10...

School, I do understand-- it's a shame I don't think I'll be able to convince you it will help. The only thing that would change that is if you wholeheartedly tried, without the presumption it's not...

Please, please, please... do not suppress your thoughts/emotions. They will come back with a vengeance. Meditating is about accepting what you feel/ think, and then letting it go. That's it--...

Ummm... that's not the type of meditating I had in mind. Ok, first we'll start with being mindful. All you have to do is be there, with full attention to the moment you are in NOW. Not how...

That's the reason for your avoidance right there. I sincerely think practicing mindfulness, and then even meditating will help you. In silence we hear the truth and find the answers.

Well, get out there and go kick some butt... :happy:

I tend to believe that people do the best they can... Yes, some people may find this inspirational-- but there's a huge potential for demotivation. If you tell people that they aren't doing...

You get hungry, tired, feel pain, etc... right? That's your body. The one your brain is stuck in. Is there a reason you don't want to accept that? I suggest studying mindfulness... then...

Someone mentioned this poem in the comments at the bottom of the article, and I think it's quite appropriate.... If you can't be a pine on the top of the hill, Be a scrub in the valley-but be...

I know exactly how you feel-- I've been in the same boat for 4 months now. All I can say is, it might get worse. BUT, everyone goes through highs and lows and you need to remind yourself that...

I (ISFJ) would find the person I felt was the weakest and act as their defender... I would probably die first, because they'd stab me in the back before I knew what was happening.

Are you sure him being withdrawn sometimes isn't just because he's introverted? Sometimes pursuing a relationship can seem daunting-- especially if he's had bad experiences in the past.

What happened to oxytocin? 139545

Yes!! It is more comfortable, isn't it :proud:

Pucca, that's what my conclusion was...

Your thoughts on why this is?
