'I never said I used it as an excuse, I work against it every day. I am somewhat dismayed that you assumed as much. It was merely meant as information on how it colors my behavior, and why I...|||I'll just continue hijacking then, for a brief moment (sorry.)   Well, first let me explain that I am usually very confident when approaching a girl I like. I am not cocky or anything like that,...|||Yay!    I forgot to mention a major factor! I have (mild) social anxiety, so that shapes my behavior in social situations a bit ;)|||No. I should maybe note that this is not typical behavior for me. I mean being infatuated with someone I don't really know, and who doesn't know me.  I have however read up on ISTJ's before, and I...|||I know. It is rather embarrassing. There is only one person in the world that I could ever even admit such childish feelings to (my former girlfriend). I think she suspects it though, as she has...|||I never remember my exact age *looks at iPhone app HowOld* 28, it claims.   I am not, but I have started to suspect that I may be infatuated with someone. I feel rather childish about it, and...|||As a self-proclaimed INTJ lover, I would like to know your opinion of me (if you have even been able to deduct anything about my character since I am fairly new here.). Do you think that I am...|||I don't like being associated with that statement. I am not married (and probably never will be), but it is quite impossible for me to cheat on my girlfriend. That would be so against my core self, I...|||Jesus. I could buy a very cheap meal and eat for the rest of my life. Supposedly.|||I would hazard to guess that it works both ways. :)|||As I am attracted to the ENFP personality the most, I am inclined to choose that for my girlfriend, but in truth I would never let that stand in the way if I was attracted to someone. As for kids,...|||A valid concern. I have changed all of my groups of friends several times without any afterthought, especially when I change jobs or when I move somewhere else. There are only a select few I keep in...|||You could just also not call her or her actions lame.|||A few hours. I usually have to listen to podcasts or audio books in bed to calm my brain.|||Trust is the thing most sacred to me, which is why only a couple of people have it.|||Why would I want to do that? Maybe it was a poor attempt at a joke or sarcasm, even so I fail to see it.  I find Tokyo interesting, but I have never heard about Fukushima until the recent days, so...|||It seems rather selfish to me, doing good because you'd like something good to happen to you?  I do good because I'd like others to do good. Not because I believe in magical mystical universal...|||There are inevitably going to be some kind of a reaction to every action we take, but it's not karma. It's chaos.|||Tokyo. So much craziness in one place, I think it would keep me entertained indefinitely. Well, except the whole oh my, we might die of radiation. that's going on there right now.|||I applaud the brave few who are trying to keep this thread on track.|||http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JZOuM2IIfLs|||I see no good reason why the Quick Links menu shouldn't be visible all the time. That's what make them quick links.|||I always do. I never presume the authority to speak for anyone else. :)|||I guess, if they are way into microbes, but I don't see it as a INTJ thing to be into stuffed animals :p|||Again, I think there is some confusion about what level of hiding we are thinking about. I think you are describing our more general introverted nature, not the deep hiding that I think the OP...|||Some people like us, but most people think we are strange. I don't much mind either one :)  People tend to get hurt or annoyed when they engage me in small-talk and I let them know I am not...|||Quick Links->Subscribed Threads.  Except it sometimes disappears, like when you view the What's New? page. It is annoying.|||And I walk around with a (in-ear) headset all the time so people don't talk to me. I don't even have any music on ;)|||Libraries, with ENFP's looking for INTJ's.  Oh wait, that's every library.   Just give me my own private apartment then, with minimalistic furnishing.|||I found that a bit strange as well, but what can you do, people are different.|||Cute zany girls.  http://www.deadline.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/zooey-deschanel.jpg|||You've piqued my interest. Is it too personal to share? Being that you seem fully aware of how INTJ's behave, there is only one typical INTJ thing that I can think of that could be a deal-breaker for...|||When my previous relationships ended, I became cold and distant immediately when it happened. Like with my previous girlfriend, she said she wanted to break up with me and my response was OK. and I...|||Hate is a strong word. Was it intentional? I find it difficult to believe that an INTJ hates you :)|||There are probably a few sociopaths and pyromaniacs who'd also find that enjoyable. You may want to check with your psychologist.|||We do? :O  I don't.|||http://i680.photobucket.com/albums/vv165/jt217/thDenied_Encino_Man.gif|||http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CMNry4PE93Y|||The reason I don't like something like that is because immediately it is said, it seems scheduled, and I feel pressure to perform. It's hard to put to words, but to make it short I hate it when sex...|||Build it and they will come.|||So, how you doin'?|||No. You seem to be reading my viewpoints with very biased eyes. Everything is not black or white. I did not say that all sarcasm is meant as a test, but I did say that I utilize sarcasm as a test....|||I've learned that absolutely everyone loves a spelling nazi.|||House MD (and Dexter) makes me feel understood more than I find it funny.|||I use emoticons a lot, I find that it eases most conversations. I still don't think they belong in sarcasm. I like people to question whether I am serious or not. In case you didn't know, it is...|||Really? I think most people have a very hard time seeing when I'm being serious or when I'm being sarcastic in real life. The INTJ poker face is hard to beat.  someone: Does this make me look fat?...|||Because my batteries are empty. I try to do minor disappearances every now and then just to maintain my sanity, but yeah, mostly just because I need to be alone. I've actually moved to other...|||Yes. Mostly by movies though, seldom through real life experiences. Real life is too filtered and mundane.  Other than that I tend to change deeply when someone I love leaves me shattered.|||I don't even. Something happened, but I'm not sure what.  Abort mission.|||An ENFP wa-- oooh what's that!'
