'According to my ESTP boyfriend, yes, ESTPs are pretty common. I wouldn't say they are really TACTFUL, because they are less THINK and more DO. They're very action-oriented people, and that's what...
Is it an ISTJ thing to notice that the grammar is wrong in the poll? And to have it bug me? Sigh. All in all, the year has been great thus far (still a day and a half left!), with the minor...
That's so true. I like the logic in how you think. Also, what if you had a pillow pet? Like one of those stuffed animals that flatten out in the midsection into a very comfy pillow? Those were...
Organized? (You seldom lose important items such as papers, keys, and you make it to your appointments/classes/work on time.) I'm somewhat organized. I've got an appointment calendar for most...
Oh Sela, you sound like me. I have to do CPR/First Aid again too! But in regards to your post, Jacon, I definitely have problems remembering things. I find I'm not an auditory learner so much...
I wouldn't say you're too much. Different, yes, but I can handle you guys! At least, I can handle my ESTP boyfriend, and he likes my J traits, so we work well together. Some of the things you...
Haha...my boyfriend did the same thing...he did something to his ankle, but refused to go to a doctor because he said it would cost him too much money. And then it was swelling up, and he said it...
It might help to do something you like doing. So if you're super energetic, then do something that works with that (e.g. rock climbing, a sport, etc.). Doing something you like just takes part of...
What are your religious beliefs? Catholic What is your political party? Liberal (similar to Democrat in the States) Do you have any siblings? One Sister What was/is your major in college?
I agree, that's an awesome show! I have yet to meet an ISTJ. Well, at least to identify that someone I know is an ISTJ. I still don't know the types of the majority of the people I know, and...
That's actually some pretty good advice. I didn't know it at the time, but when I was younger, my mom and sister used to always tell me to join clubs and stuff at school. I sorta felt like...
Uhh...that's the point.
That's the BEST expression ever! I use it a lot...
I WANT a brother. Does that count?

I heard my name. Why're you talkin' 'bout me? Better not be anything bad! Oh, yup. In 'loo too! Pewpew!
Not sure if I'm necessarily reading for the information access, as you put it. I'd usually choose a big fictional novel over news, although I'll pick up a newspaper if there's nothing else lying...
Hrm...that may be true. Learning a language also has it's technicalities (i.e. conjugating verbs and whatnot), which seems like a left-brained sorta thing to do. Oh dear, every time I'm asked to...
But isn't it more of an opposites attract thing? Always having someone who is almost exactly the same as me (being ISTJ and ISTJ) may be good initially, but I think I would be driven insane if I...
There's a fine line between relaxing and monotone; I'm sure you're not monotonous! But yeah, it's great to have someone who's a bit more mellow and reasonable to talk to. :)
I agree with you both. Sometimes, I forget that not everyone uses the same brand of logic as me, and so when I expect them to get some part of a project done, or to have finished something, I'm...
Hey, if everyone else is doing it, doesn't it make it not creepy and just normal? So really, we're all normal. Despite this, and its prevalence, if I was told someone was stalking me, I definitely...
Really? I did well in French in high school; although I'm currently not doing as well as I could, or at least as well as I expected. Are we actually left-brained? I didn't know that. Maybe it's...
Yeah, I get that vibe too sometimes. Or even between other people; like a more extroverted or feely-type person, where they just talk so easily with each other that I assume they know each other...
Being passive may be something we revert back to, a general personality trait, but I'm sure we can all stand out when we want to. It just depends on the situation, and what we are called on to do. ...
I totally know what you mean about P.E. I was SO glad they only made us take it once. Not that I don't like sports; don't get me wrong -- I LOVE sports. I just hate getting graded on them, and...
That goes alongside that saying, whatever it actually is; the one that basically says jokes are funny only because they're partly true...
Hahaha...it's funny that an ISTJ keeps the excitement in your life. But yes, don't get us pissed. You won't like us when we're not happy with you.
It's weird. I think it has something to do with being a girl, but I love flowers. Getting a flower would be nice on V-day. Nothing flashy like a huge bouquet, but a single rose just melts me. ...
Seems like we're all going through the same thing here, and everyone's felt this in one way or another. For the most part, speaking up in a group (although it takes me WAY out of my comfort zone),...
I'm sorry you didn't have the best experience with us; hopefully you'll meet more ISTJs that are nicer. But I do think that we tend to act differently with the people we know, than to strangers. ...
Not sure if ISTJs really could dish it out all day as you say, Lilsnowy. We're not exactly the super-talkative bunch (maybe so around the people we know well). I'd think we usually know when to...
Reading about Pokemon in the morning sure beats studying. Welcome to the forum!
Not sure what to say about this. On the one hand, an intelligent hell would still be hell. That implies that despite the advancements in technology, or societal benefits, life would essentially...
- pay off university loans - give some to family (immediate & aunts/uncles/cousins) - buy a house (actual city TBD; depends where I end up working) - save some to furnish the house - get a car...
I'm sure a lot of people open up on the Internet. There's something to be said about the anonymity of it all... Hello and welcome!
OOH! Another ISTJ! Yay! (Okay, yes, I'm feeling childish today.)
who, me? O_O
And you know this because....? This made my day. Yes, very early in the day, in fact. *ahem* ISTJ's are the best!
Glad to know I'm not alone! Especially since I hang around a lot of other extroverted types, it seems as if I'm the only one that feels like this! That's so true. I've never been good with...
Then you must not have very high expectations of us! :tongue: Anyway, dating can just start with hanging out and just doing something both of you enjoy; it doesn't have to be the traditional dinner &...
Dating. =)
There's always a reason...however small it may be, that stops us from communicating with you. It could be something you did, or just something totally unrelated to you (like something that happened...
For someone who is less familiar with the whole cognitive theory (like me), I think the J/P thing is just a good rule of thumb to know right away which function dominates. Yes, it's understood that...
Ahh...that's true. I definitely need to read more about the types and cognitive functions to understand people, and how their brains work. It always amazes me when someone else comes up with...
From the first way you put it, I seem like a P; I don't know if I really like making decisions myself. I like it when other people make them for me (for the most part), but then would that fall...
Err...I thought that's what I said. In any case, that's what I meant. Talking to strangers is one thing, talking to friends/family/etc. is something completely different. Hahaha...you COULD...
Who does? Surely not me...?
Yeah, well, why share something if they aren't interested in knowing it about you? I'd rather not waste my time or breath. And if they are honestly interested, well, they'd ask. In general, I don't...
Ahh okay; I get what you mean. Yeah, sometimes I don't even really realize that it's taken the wrong way until I think about it more, or someone points it out to me. Although many of my friends are...'
