If his fatigue is getting in...|||But that's the thing...what's the limit of what you think you could have? Any time I meet someone, I'm going to find flaws, and when I find flaws, there will always be the voice in my head that there...|||Here's the thing...if I were him and I knew you thought like this, I would find it kind of manipulative. If you like him, just tell him? Respect his feelings and trust him to make his own decisions....|||Right now, I'd say that I'd never enter a relationship with someone I don't feel is right for me. But I'm also young. Who knows how my views might change in my late thirties or forties.|||The ego boosting is tolerable. Ego boost away, my minion. If you want to throw in the neck massage too, I'll deign myself to accept it.|||Good lord. What have you done to the poor kitty. I do hope you don't mean to say that you will subject us INTJs to such abuse.|||Ahh. The good old MBTI manual. I definitely have some preformed biases of their studies just based on the academic background of the mother-daughter pair who created the MBTI. I won't say more...|||Do you have a link to a study? I'm curious as to what else they tested. For instance, I am willing to bet that sensing may be positively correlated to IQ as well. I think it's more likely that people...|||And here I am thinking What are these people up to...? Surely, this must be some nefarious plan to expose our soft hearts and jiggly innards.|||I don't think I'm ugly or beautiful. Somewhere on the spectrum of average? I'm not as obsessed with making my body aesthetically pleasing as most of society seems to be. I'm grateful that I have a...|||This is really up to you. Sometimes, friendships don't last as people change. If you are feeling inferior or left out, you have two choices: 1.) Suck it up and put in more effort to make this...|||I love-hate having a rival. In the sense that I hate exams, but realistically, I know that without them, I probably wouldn't learn the material to the degree that I do. In the same sense, my refusal...|||VDI-P: 79% Visionary 66% Tactics 92% Introverted Identity: Perfecting  Interesting that there isn't a percentage for the identity. Based on the descriptions for identity under the VDI...|||Short Cake Cake The point is to make new friends! Don't limit yourself to places where your friends are. Go where you want to go, especially if it has something you particularly want to study or it's...|||Short Cake Cake Don't feel too torn about your friend. Here's the thing...she had just as much time to confess as you did. The fact she told you not to tell was probably a sign that she suspected he...|||If you don't mind, could you elaborate on the kinds of roles you play in the BDSM scene? There's some speculation as what INTJs or introverts might be, but the more data the better :)|||To the first, I guess it's a general question of whether the disease makes the patient. We often say that we shouldn't define a patient by their disease, but at the same time, they're clearly...|||Yes, memorization does get better with repeated exposure. You're strengthening the neural connections after all. I guess it's less about ability to memorize (I can if I want to), but I simply can't...|||...What do you mean by scientifically proven. MBTI has no science behind it. Whatsoever. It's not just because of inconsistencies. It's really just a popular fad in society.  As for 'nature is never...|||There is no variant of MBTI that is scientifically proven. MBTI was created by a woman and her daughter neither of whom had the scientific background necessary. I am not sure what you mean by...|||Okay, I'll apologize for this ahead of time, but I'm going to be a bit of an asshole/'that chaperone no one wants at the school dance'  1. I hope the person driving was not drinking.  2. I'm happy...|||Starry Eyed I believe one of the requirements of dickhood is selfishness :). But I certainly won't complain if you don't think I'm a dick. I didn't mean that I thought they were lying about their...|||bentHnau At this point, this is literally just squabbling over words.  We clearly both know how reproduction works. You're referring to how you need an egg from a female and sperm from a male. I'm...|||Is it just me or has there been a huge wave of incoming INTJs recently? I can't tell if it's out of the ordinary or if I'm just happening to be paying more attention to it. Not that it's a bad thing,...|||This is a cutesy version of a secretary or your mom (not yours specifically). I'd like to have one to help me run my life, but not as a replacement for an actual SO (I'm assuming this is what you...|||bentHnau You do realize that people can have children through other means, right? You can get egg/sperm donors for people who otherwise can't have children. If a gay couple decided that they wanted a...|||I'm not saying that cutting people out is mature. It's just the easiest way for me (I don't know how other INTJs feel about this) to deal with complicated relationship I don't want to deal with. I...|||I meant a heteronormative pairing, because I had a feeling someone was going to misunderstand and say that oh, you think only a male-female couple need genetic testing for children. I never said...|||Plot twist. The two people in the story are Stawker and Starry Eyed. Dun Dun DUNNN.   Starry, I think using age is one of the worst ways to tell someone you're not interested. It's kind of like...|||Hmm.  1.) You can just as easily die by ie. Not eating, not breathing, not drinking, sheer stupidity...doesn't mean our purpose in life is to eat, breathe, drink, and not being stupid (although this...|||An INTJ dude you're interested in having problems trusting you? Regardless of male or female, INTJ or not INTJ, being cheated on is going to leave a mark. There was an implicit level of trust that's...|||Hmm. I'd disagree. Genetic selection is happening all the time, but with technology and medicine, we're preventing a lot of it from happening. Back in the old days, if a child was sickly, chances...|||Helenka Wow, haha, I wasn't actully expecting you to explain yourself, but this is pretty cool. Also, can I mention I love how chill INTPs are (or maybe it's just you)? I was expecting some outrage...|||Did you let him know in the email that you'd be talking to a TA if this wasn't resolved? (In a nicer way than the blackmail-y way I've mentioned it lol)|||But really...when else could you pretend to be a school bus microbe?|||LOL. Magic School Bus VR version.|||Wow, life would be significantly more boring if I were ingesting food pills. I would say food makes up a solid 50% of the reason I go traveling. Some of the food I've had...literally mind blown. Not...|||Right...you're also learning team work. If you think you can do everything by yourself in most jobs in the world, you are sorely mistaken (believe me, this is coming from someone who was an...|||Acataleptic I'm in my 20's and have never been in a relationship. Right now, I'm at the place where I'm thinking it'd be nice if I did find someone of interest, but I'm not really bugged if I don't...|||Ahh, that doesn't sound like a merry Christmas.|||If you're not working in your enclosed garage with the car running, or leave your CO-producing heater on overnight, you should be fine?|||:( Yeah, doctors may have the medical knowledge, but they're not the ones interacting with your baby 24/7. They should listen when their patient gives them valuable information.|||I hate religion. I hate snow. I'm just a hater all around.  No not really. I'm not religious myself, but it is always interesting to see how other people view the world. It does get incredibly...|||fancy8 Two parts to this:  1. If you know he has a girlfriend, it's partly your responsibility not to lead him on (if you're right in your assumption that he is interested in you).  2. You know he...|||Helenka I'm not saying this to offend you so please don't take this personally. This is just me ranting about whatever I rant about...  I have a bit of a pet peeve when people say things like My...|||Hmm, but from the things I've mentioned is there anything on there that other people from other personality types wouldn't know about the people they're interested in? It's not like my info-gathering...|||Have you tried talking to her about this? Ask her if she's interested. And maybe when you guys talk, you'll find your perspective on things may not be what she's thinking. This is obviously...|||It's been a really long time since I've been interested in someone, but yes, in the past, I would collect information on them. As in, I'm not going to go straight in to let them know that I'm...|||We're talking about those that we unconsciously place at the top of the social pyramid. Those popular for hiring would be different.|||It's more than just expectations with T and F. Society (at least the Western) prefers people who are social.
