'First rule of the internet I learnt: Keep your personal life and internet life separate. So its a no from me.
Lilxpie There doesn't seem to be a problem? The both of you seem content with fantasies and daydreams- and neither of you seem ready to take the relationship to the next level. Its alright to...
If I was an NF, I'd be a particularly haywire one haha. My temper and sensitivity towards perceived slights has been my downfall since my youth, so I doubt that F is dominant in any way within me.
There is no where better than this forum to be honest. I find the posts by LiquidLight particularly useful. If you can find it, Jung's book on Psychological Types is also a good place to start...
I did wonder which description an ENFP would relate to more, but I guess the divide between Ne/Si and Se/Ni is greater than a shuffled function stack haha. I totally agree with the calming...
I have an INFP bestie, and an ESFP friend, so I'll be glad to talk, if it helps. With my INFP friend, I often feel gentled and subdued, trusting in his thoughts and his certainty- I put down my...
The mechanic is simply a title conferred upon us by the MBTI system- an easy description of the aggregate of characteristics that we share not some destiny that we must live up to. It is the...
CosmicYeti We use Fe actually, Fi runs in an alien fashion to the Ti-Fe pair, so its not that we're less flexible, we're just not made for the sort of thinking you're asking us to do. What we can...
Couldn't you add him on facebook? You can find him through mutual friends can't you? Ambushing him at his house based on a moment's fancy is a move that would probably work only in movies. Have...
Being an ISTP simply means that in most situations, we prefer to utilize Introverted Thinking (to make a reasonable decision) coupled with Extraverted Sensing (based on what we can observe...
What pattern are you trying to find exactly? You seem to be creating a lot of threads to answer some question that you can't seem to define, and can't seem to find an answer for. Are you trying to...
You can't ask others to define your purpose in life for you. Your future is a knot that only you can unravel, because ultimately, you are the one tied to it, for better or worst. It sounds like...
lol if we were to follow the stereotypes set I should be an INFP rather than a ISTP. After all illustration and design aren't exactly interests that ISTPs are stereotyped to have. I do relate to...
In that you approach it with an element of curiosity and interest- you don't seem to just be cataloguing or stating facts, but you're decorating and illuminating your thoughts with visual...
I think it has more to do with our genetic make-up and how our body reacts to alcohol than anything related to a personality type. If I had a good night's sleep, I'm jolly when tipsy. If I didn't...
To an extent. They may probably see something along the lines of that Coca Cola advert with a whole colony of tiny gnome people working hard to keep the fridge running. But who knows really, everyone...
lol. I don't look at my fridge. I smell it. Nothing tells you about the state of a fridge (and the food in it) better than the way it smells. I don't think about my fridge, I feel it, I smell it, I...
Intuition doesn't exactly mean plucking out of thin air y'know. Abstractions can only be abstracted if there is something concrete to draw it from. Even while high- you still need to see and touch,...
I would think that Se / Fe manifests strongly in social situations simply because its how you extravert yourself to others. Ti / Ni forms your internal core of ideas while Se / Fe retrieves and sends...
..........ISTPs think in paragraphs too. Or to elaborate, there are ISTPs that think in paragraphs and ISTPs that talk in sentences. Just as there are INTPs that think in sentences and INTPs that...
A blog to remind myself to get off my lazy ass and draw stuff. ...
.....What? When did I say anything like that????? :confused: And...FYI its not that I don't think they're ISTPs or that anyone who agrees with them isn't an ISTP either. I specifically used Are...
10/10. I chuckled.
....I don't know? To propel someone else into a lengthy monologue that may or may not be relevant to the actual point quoted?
Narcissism. Do you really crave attention that badly?
...Are we really that predisposed to cynicism and bitterness? : I find that simply not responding to annoying topics works well enough as a method of disagreement without having to spread my...
....Is he a married man? If he is, then I think you should step away and leave him be. But if he isn't, and the both of you would soon be leaving this social situation / power dynamic anyway,...
@rhibecka In that context I'd agree with you. But well, the post you've quoted jumbles up Te-users (ExTJ~IxTJ~ExFP~IxFP) and Extroverted Thinkers (ExTJ~ExTP), who operate in very different ways...
rhibecka I'd admit to preferring the progress to the end result. Because I often have an idealized vision of my end result and I'm damned if I'm going to settle for anything less than that. Though...
Depends on what you mean by deep. I do not do well with circular logic or an endless parade of questions. I'm allergic to What-If scenarios unless there is some use to be gained out of delving into...
You know....if you were going to raise this thread from the dead, the least you could do is to own it. Seriously, you have dem0lish as your handle, what is this small text shit.
Haha it wasn't that much of a pain. Character Strength # 1Curiosity You are curious about everything. You are always asking questions, and you find all subjects and topics fascinating. You like...
@Functianalyst But isn't pain subjective to the person? Despite it being a physical sensation- people react to pain differently. People with sadomasochistic tendencies process pain and the...
I personally think pain tolerance is connected to Se. Though the unwillingness to express pain may be connected to inferior Fe. As a kid I rarely cried when I fell down or had some scrapes-...
Yeah, that leans more towards Ni patterning than Se perceiving. When I'm using this mode of thinking I feel like I need to keep reminding myself Slow down, stop jumping to conclusions, lets wait...
Uh....how is this possible? We share only our perceiving functions- and its not even in the same order. Besides, I'm always skeptical of those who tout their function preference as percentages....
Sounds like an interesting project. You should also consider the age of your protagonists in terms of their function mastery / usage. A ESTJ in their early teens would probably be a lot more fixated...
I would beg to differ. Se isn't so much about instant gratification or lack or motivation, but the ability to live in the moment and give no fucks about what happens in the past or future. It isn't...
I take issue with his vagueness, because his system was made to be applied- and you can't apply things that you can't understand. Haha, well my ideas of power vs control are kinda subjective....
I bought it :( couldn't find a full version online. I've read somewhere that Jung self-identified as INFJ in one of his books. Not 100% sure about his type, but he certainly doesn't seem to favor Se....
itsme45 I was venting, nothing personal. Just a NNUUUURRRRRGGGGHHHHH!!!! moment. I get like that sometimes but it is more a problem with me than with you. Wouldn't say Ni/Fe though. This is the...
:O ........I don't think the ENFP is the issue here. As for your schizophrenia, unfortunately I have no answers for you, because that lies outside of what MBTI was made for. You should perhaps...
My frustration is only in regards to method of questioning itsme45 is using. Nothing personal or debilitating.
:E ............why would you think that? ...........
I wanted to mention that the reason why a person prefers a chosen activity trumps what the activity actually consists of. But I was too lazy to edit my post. An Extrovert could very well prefer a...
The problem with this is that being Se-aux also means that we get charged up from being in physically stimulating or exciting situations. Doesn't necessarily mean that we prefer it over the other,...
lol I enjoy Fe too (one reason why I went into MBTI / Jung, to be able to connect and understand others better- a throughly Fe aim). I just don't trust it. It happens at a subconscious level...
Judging functions are always influenced and informed by perceiving functions. Before a person makes a judgement they need to take stock of a situation, and different perceiving functions prioritize...
:| The I and E is simply a matter of preference. Which venue do you prefer, which activity do you find more rewarding? The difference between ISTP and ESTP is another thing entirely.'
