'My initial thought is when he says I love you - is in what context is it being said?
Nothing an ISTJ ever says should be perceived as an attack - it is just straight talking. You can point out this method may be considered rude or impolite and an ISTJ may be more tactful or use...
In that case I'm waiting :wink:
Well without answering your question the way you would desire. I speak only for myself, I like introverted people that are Te
Dear xSTJ Thanks for sacking me after 1 week's work. You are asking too much too fast too soon. You'll be on your 3rd applicant now out of the 3 interviews and you have a guy with more...
Does that mean you can come across as not listening (and comprehending) to someone when you actually are?
Political statements were over. Now we have this. Seeking those with experience to answer this question.
And that's the reason I reckon my type may have changed (from INFP) - I used to be able to imagine all that stuff in my youth. I have trouble even imagining a romantic situation these days. On...
I should have been clearer. Initiate a conversation, not the conversation.
:laughing: It was never my intent to hide them. It is just the way they came out.
I knew my own wording would let me down. On There's a fine line between confidence and arrogance - which side do you fall on? I meant your perception of others that you may consider arrogant or is...
Definitely wish more would initiate, especially one on one or even two on one. Any more is just intimidating.
La-Z-boy
Interesting admission of libertarianism/anarchism as far right. Not the way I would have phrased far left and far right. Those things would have been included in the spectrum though I could...
Somewhat amused about the fight over a fictional character but I recently outlined my thoughts here.
Is there a type that tends to have the gift of the gab? I guess you've already answered that with Fe, so I'm inclined to either go with Fe or just a social manipulator.
I wont agree with everything you just said DaisyChain but I'll defend your right to say it. :tongue: I do agree with what DaisyChain has said specifically on topic about this relationship. It is...
I a mess maker but it is a functional mess. The links in my sig explain it better about the man cave or rather nerd cave. Essentially the mess/messes are an ordered mess and each mess takes...
Dear ISTJ, If I'm honest, I have no idea. However, I took it exactly the same way you did Sincerely another ISTJ
Be a philosopher, but first be a man - Hume
Agreed. His early discussion of INTJ sounds like me and I'm an ISTJ. I certainly do not think I have been mistyped.
I can really only add like all the others to keep trying. Yes he feels betrayed - brought you up, put a roof over your head and you walked out on him. ISTJs in my experience seem quite...
When an ISTJ says they have an inkling of an idea, that is like calling a Hurricane a slight breeze.
Incompetence, or the appearance of incompetence especially when that person is paid for their role.
All of the above and will where possible provide gifts that you claim you need, especially if they see the utility value of the item. It may be for you but ISTJs tend to prefer practical items...
Dogs. I can put up with Cats though. Sadly I'm allergic or so I have learned in the last few years.
One of these other many ISTJ threads, says its not about spending a lot of time on the net - it is to our minds research. I think more often than not, it is. May research on how to renovate your...
Poor
I'm living in it. Turn of the 20th Century but with the mod cons and plenty of bookshelf space. I just keep adding bookshelves -even though they're not all full yet. That is more of a financial...
The effectiveness of time used is of import. The time consumed is of little import. The efficacy of the study/work depends on your own comprehension and completion of tasks. You're the only...
This. I'm relatively new but I tend to thank when the information provided either explains or confirms something. Niss's post here also stops me from going to look for the post where he explains...
FWIW I changed my mind on all abortions are bad - though that was a number of years ago now. Everything depends on its own specific context - there are no universal maxims per se.
There's a fine line between confidence and arrogance - which side do you fall on? Are you perceiving it correctly? Have you considered other perceptions? Are you relying on how you're feeling or...
Things not done the right way. Things done the new right way without being shown the evidence for the case. A lack of information to process OR the lack of explanation of a given structure...
ISTJ Articles
I'm new here so take what I say with a grain of salt. You read IxTJ to me. I lean to ISTJ but that may be my bias that I want you to lean that way.
Closest I can go is say I worked in a NFP that dealt with grief, loss, homeless, mental illness and much more for over 4 years and when the situation is elaborated on clearly, I believe I can...
This is so much me. Sorry really nothing to add. It was just nice to see confirmation of my processes.
The logic isn't perfect here but Technically the Glass is Always Full
I'll allow the assumption of SJs for sake of argument, this does not however mean I accept the argument as there have been good reasons previously explained of why we should not. It is likely the...
Since I'm on the final page of this thread, at last I feel I can comment on this one. Plain and simple context memory - it makes perfect sense.
And since this is an introspective thread about myself I would like to say this sounds a lot like me too. It answers some of my queries in the vigorous discussion Niss and I had when I...
This sounds like me. Pardon the wording but even when there is order in the chaos, I only understand it once I've read/followed-up on the underlying processes that may things appear that way. Once...
Note I'm still adapting to the Ti/Ne/etc expressions. I thought it was gibberish at first but I understand it now. Anyhow my Thinking was driven by Niss's posts like this: From the...
I'm definitely a troubleshooter. That's the best description for me. However reading this from Niss makes me wonder I like economics and I'm good with the macro (big picture) and can make...
I speak for myself 1. Yes 2. N/A 3. I don't (I don't believe I know how or if I do, I don't know that I am doing it)
No. Ability and Competence > Appearance. Only time I really take notice of shoes is to look to see if someone is naturally taller than me or wearing heels
Nah, you just need to broaden your definitions. Science's existence is still rooted in philosophy. Just one of many branches. :tongue: Thank you both for all your help.
I tend to RTM first then complain that its full of jargon when plain English would do :tongue:
So you have little interest in convincing people of the merit of MBTI and are more of the RTFM. Thank you. It may have been I have caught you on a bad day/week and for that I apologise. My...'
