'Well thank you all for the reassurance. Yeah...we moved on from the not having kissed stage now. But maybe you can explain this: He really seems to be very serious about dating me. He actually...

I feel really dumb about this, because I am a 35 year old widow and mother of 2 who needs dating advice. Really. But here goes... :blushed: Last week I went on a date with a 47 year old divorced...

I don't know if I agree or disagree, because I don't know who most of those characters are. I also very rarely watch tv. But I do love movies. You have a list from some popular movies?

That made me smile. I love the idea of it, the hug sending as the bar completes across the screen. Thanks for that. :happy:

Oh, and when I feel this way, I feel like my personality goes through a crisis, too. I read posts, for example, that I could normally relate to, and just have no thoughts or nothing to say. Normally...

Hey all. I have been kind of depressed the past couple of days. Some of you may know, because I have been pretty open about it, but most don't: My husband died suddenly last October. We had 2...

Aww. That is so great! Thanks for the update!

I tested as INFJ over and over and over again. For years. But I knew something was off. So I started reading more about the functions and the descriptions of the types and I am a textbook ISFP. ...

Nah. We all seemed to think it was kind of weird. And he wouldn't tell us WHY, so there was suspicion with that. Plus it seemed to be the consensus that INFJ's are so different than ISFP's that there...

How did she get sick? Like...it wore her out and she got sick? I would love to see that thread if you have nothing to do but track it down someday. :wink:

I have an INFJ friend. I don't think there is any way she could come off as ISFP. She is way too head-in-the-clouds. Not an insult....just the way she is. She is not aware of her surroundings like I...

Right up there with: I love love love checklists and couldn't live without one!

I'll take this one for ISFPs, too. Also, one of my own: Yes, thank you for telling me all of the ways that I can fix my life. I really appreciate all of the advice and I will get right on it,...

I would be here on PerC. With you all. Having to put up with my craziness when it comes on after a couple of years. :ninja:

That could be painful.

No no no. Leave him alone. He knows art classes exist. He knows how to Google them for your area. If he wants to take them, he will. If he doesn't, he won't. Like another person said a few posts...

I know this might sound kind of mean for me to say, but I guess I think it's kind of weird that you care so much about this, when your boyfriend doesn't seem to, or at least isn't ready to embrace...

I can't really relate to this. For me (ISFP,) I kind of generate my own support and motivation and positive feedback. But I do see that with your type, perhaps, you need to have others who...

I do see that anytime I yell at her (and by yell, I mean typical mom yelling...which is really just being in the front seat of the car lecturing them about their embarrassing behavior in Ace...

This. All of it. Exactly. Read and reread to understand ISFPs. And yeah, don't try to change our minds. Just don't. Let us think what we want to and we'll let you think what you want. And then we can...

Haha. I love ISTPs. So much like me, but a lot funnier. I think it, but you SAY it. :happy: And...I'm not one of you, but I would say that sex is all about fun for me, and that I sleep 7-8 hours a...

I don't think there is anything wrong with confronting him. I also don't know that it will do any good for the situation, but it might make you feel better.

Well, I think maybe none of the ISFPs have responded to this because, at least for me, I don't feel comfortable giving you advice about how to exact revenge on someone. Having said that, I can...

ISFP. Jewish. Judaism is interesting, because it's not just a faith, it's a people. So if you are born Jewish, but not religious, you are still always considered Jewish by Jewish people. But...

Yeah, I completely want these girls banned from the Y. A more realistic response would probably be to request that they have to have a parent or guardian with them there if they will be there. But my...

Wow, that totally cleared it all up for me. Wow. I was very much an IFP kid. Even the parts about performing and being pressured to compete and perform being bad and stressful was true. I remember...

I am kind of all worked up. I went to the Y to pick my daughter up, and she was crying, saying these two girls were bullying here for 2 hours while she was at the pool swimming. Usually I am not...

I did the test on the Team Technology website, which I had never done, and I got ISFP as my primary personality, but I got ESFP as a secondary, because my preference for I over E was apparently...

I think I do need to tell her this more. It's hard for me, because my ISxP child is so much more affectionate and charming. She is like me, so I understand exactly what to say and how to express...

What I recommend is that people read first about the temperaments. The Keirsey book is great for this. Then, once they determine which temperament fits, try to figure out which of the 4 types in that...

Except...I know this guy who could not be typed. Every time he took a test it came back with various random results. He didn't fit ANY of the types. It was so weird. Then we found out he is...

I agree...and I think a lot of people who believe they are NFs but are actually SPs have embraced this, because so many of the descriptions say that SPs are bad students, not interested in academics,...

I have noticed, too, that lots of people I know type as E/INFJ when they take the test. But when I read the description, it's not them, and I also would not have typed them as INFJ. Usually it's that...

Hi, Devorah here. ISFP mom. Nice to meet you all. :happy: I am here because I am a single mom of 2 girls. One is ISxP, like me, and the other one is an ENFJ. My husband passed away a few months...

But you might actually be on to something: When people point out my imperfections, or what they consider my faults or weaknesses, I immediately take what they say on as MY problem. I allow what they...

Oh, that Bot...seems like a very consistent ISTJ to me...

ISFP here...but still an SP, so I will answer. :happy: I didn't lie to my kids about any of it. I told them there are fun ways to celebrate holidays and seasons and fictional characters are part...

Oh, you are an ISFJ...nurturing. Thanks. :happy: It's ok. I didn't mean to say that to gain sympathy...just to answer the question. But so you know, we are totally fine. I miss him like crazy,...

Well, I was married for 9 years. Then my husband died 8 months ago. I have two little kids and I am a single mom. I'm just not feelin' it anymore... Plus, how does one have casual sex with two...

Oh boy...The Great Gay Bible Debate. I'm Jewish. I have no problem with homosexuality. The reason I don't have a problem with it, when considering my faith, is that as a Reform Jew, I believe...

YES. I get so annoyed that people want to FIX me! I thought it was just me. What is it about the ISFP personality that we are like this? Which other types are like this, too? (Like this, as in we...

Not much hurts my feelings. I might be upset if someone points out faults that cause me to already feel insecure, but it's only because they are letting me know that it's true about whatever I always...

I don't know if this is an ISFP thing, or an SP thing, or a feeler thing...or maybe just a ME thing. So I want to find out if it's something others experience... I get really...

I don't think it's always this way. I might want to have sex with someone and like them a lot, but just not really want an actual relationship with them. I did a lot of the FWB thing back in the day,...

ISFP here: I enjoy the chase. I usually lose interest in the person as soon as I win them. But, if I have sex with them, then I do often times develop feelings for them. I don't think I have ever...

Oh wow...prayer. Yeah, I am supposed to pray 3 times a day. Well, as a woman I am only required to pray twice, but I should try for 3 times. And I would love to do it! But I don't. Like...ever....

I think she is unhealthy. She is overworked and stressed, not enough sleep, etc. Also she is obsessed with wanting to have kids and getting married, but she cannot decide if she wants to marry her...

Haha! So true! As an ISFP, I am completely aware that I have left the trash can without a liner. When I don't put one in again, it's because I just don't feel like putting one in after coming back...

I'm an ISFP, and I will tell you some of the major characteristics I have, and it might help, because these are functional characteristics, which are pretty important: 1) I remember EVERYTHING in...

I agree--I had an anxiety disorder that caused me to not be able to eat. Which is the LITERAL meaning of Anorexia Nervosa--lack of appetite due to nervousness, but not the clinical meaning of it. I...'
