BigApplePi, I'm worried about your saftey. Have you ventured in the land of ESFX and taken up trying out theatre?
:kilroy:
Continue to worry. My worse nightmare. Someone once forced lines on me when I was nine years old and I never recovered. It's like having one's brain raped or worse. :eek::eek::eek::eek:

If I felt feelings, I would say something along the lines of, "I feel for you." Its more like soul-rape. I'm having flashbacks of an ESFJ shoving scripts in my face and conniving her way around my blatant protests, the unspeakable memory, I'm shuddering....*sobs* :hoplite_sword:

My Mother is ESFJ and she has never forced me into theater or anything else for that matter because she knows its a lost cause. Either she gives up too easily or I'm just a big brute :D.

-When you go into a "You know you're an Intp when..." thread and see what appears to be people projecting behavior they think is cool onto their type, and you're like, But that is not like me at all, nor does it match any description I have ever seen.

Continue to worry. My worse nightmare. Someone once forced lines on me when I was nine years old and I never recovered. It's like having one's brain raped or worse. :eek::eek::eek::eek:

I know exactly what you still....feel? horrible. I never recovered too (6 yo). They were ALL my family but my grand mother. She was revolted. I was not crying, my cousin was laughing (ESFJ probably) They never got it. hard hard.
My grandma has gone now. She miss me A LOT.

I think of her when sad.

Be strong my friend. I understand you. Stay yourself, no matter what...

You read about INTP's experiences and find you are the same and wonder, why the heck am I an INTP when there are 15 other chances out there?

Does bouncing to various other forums completely convinced that you are not INTP count (I still think I may be too extroverted for an INTP....but ENTP just doesn't fit).

All the time...I have gotten a bit more aggressive. If I see even the slightest crack on the sizes where I can get through, I take it.

You enjoyed pondering your personality type so much that you proceeded to join a forum dedicated to people who have all done the exact same thing

this was your first post on that, or any forum

847? : When you ask somebody about something you've been thinking about deeply, and the way you phrase the question answers it for you as you're saying it.


x^2: When you then go on for a long time explaining to that person what you just figured out while not noticing the bored expression on their face.

(My mother is a psychic, and ive felt this way my entire life. She just knows things, to the point where its uncomfortable lying to her. )


345. When you seriously think about dumping a friend, or partner because they are not as intellectually stimulating as you would like them to be.

The only reason me and my best friend are friends, is because he mentally challenges me.

346. When nothing you write is ever complete. You're always going back, making corrections.

I feel as if I wrote a book, I would drive myself crazy for the rest of my life correcting things.

When you wish that you could just be a sensing being that doesn`t need food, water, or air, and that doesn't feel pain so that you could spend eternity traveling the universe learning all that there is to know. Along with that, can recall things with vivid accuracy, tell time and temperature to the smallest possible measurement without help from a device, and still be able to communicate with all other beings (for those rare extroverted occasions, of course.)

when you can't take someone's word on something after having asked them, then proceed to find out for yourself.

when you start organizing people, not by social norms like favorite sports, music, etc., but by MBTIs

when you start to look at people not as humans, but as MBTIs.

When you constantly use parenthetical phrases for clarification (at least I do lol) (get the joke there) (I did it again lol) (ok not funny anymore).

I do this in most of my posts (including this one, naturally) because I had a thought on the subject (while typing my previous thoughts on the subject) that I must now include.

161. when you continue the train of numbers. hence 161
162. when you play a game, you make goals and have to be the best, even though asians will always win.
163. When you have to question the previous poster by stating if asians win it's because there are more of them, but they don't win because there are more non-asians depending on how you define asians.

-Sadness generally plays out as a lack of affect and it may take days or weeks to realise you are sad about something.

-Happiness generally plays out as a contented lack of affect and it takes someone asking you "what's wrong?" for you to notice just how perfectly content you are feeling (or was, up until you were bugged about it)

-Enthusiasm generally plays out as over the top zealousness that makes you appear to be a lunatic.

And... often enthusiasm is caused by either your own noticing that you are sad-now you have something to go read about and figure out! Or, by someone actually knowing and understanding you enough to know that your answer "Nothing, I was just thinking." to that pesky "what's wrong." question is both perfectly honest and acceptable behavior on your part which does not in any way require them to continue to bug you about it.

Maybe this is just all me. I'm not sure.

You generally agree with the flavor of what MissQuote said. Exception: instead of people asking, "What's wrong?", they ask, "What's wrong with you?":D

Ha. Yeah.

My kids (who obviously know me quite well) get all weirded out and want to know what is wrong with me at times. But not when I am walking around all dull and lost in space looking, it is those times I am walking around with a shit eating grin on my face, usually for no apparent reason to others.

If I am smiling they get worried and want to know what is wrong with me. God I love them.

Yes I'm familiar with the "shit eating grin." I try to mask it best I can when around others but it's impossible. I don't have kids, but if yer willing to pass one on as a loaner or something, I'd return them in the same shape or better ... depending on your definition.:)

When you have a tough time taking the initiative to start homework that is due the next day.

When you quit a debate team because they don't grade you off of logic, but off of speaking ability.

When you take forever to learn something but can apply it to anything once you know it.

i'm a prize in a cereal box near you, so buy, BUY,
when a well spent day includes getting up in the morning just to lay down near a tree and spend the rest of the day daydreaming.

When you are proud of how productive you were today because you got off your ass to put a load of laundry in the washer or walk a block down the street to buy a carton of milk.

- When your parents say that you're a disappointment and/or failure, and somehow you feel like you're succeeding more than ever.


- When you'd rather watch paint dry than the television because it's less predictable.


- When your most commonly used emoticon when chatting to a non INTP is *facepalm*


- When you know that you are more than capable of achieving anything , but choose to sit and ponder the outcome rather than create it.


- When you form a conclusion about a person upon first meeting them , and predicting how the rest of their life will play out.


- Answering questions with "I don't know" because you know that people won't understand the perspective you're coming from. Ever.


- Realising that your dog is more intelligent than 95% of the population

- When you don't study for the whole year , but manage to pass all of your Year 12 exams with a B

Coworkers and customers at your shitty job complain that you're moody. Which is perplexing because you've been so kind it felt fake.

- when you resent your friends for disliking your analytical nature, and feel you have to put on a dopey mask for them to accept you. you know your "friends" don't know shit about the real you, and these people never know how to deal with your depressive thoughts, and so they avoid you because your complex thoughts make them uncomfortable because they don't know how to cope with dissonance. so instead of venting your pent-up frustration you have to keep it all inside again, because other people only like you when you smile.
