Religion exists because life is chaos and that doesn't...|||being adored by many is more accurate for me but not really the leadership bit|||I've had a handful, I am in to a lot of the theories, I read LaBerge's book. I go in and out of phases, I usually have better dreams when I do very little in the day.|||Do any of you ever feel like you are constantly chasing things; relationships, success, perfection, happiness; in vain (when you think about it)?  I just thought about this, I get so desperate for...|||I stopped looking for you I stopped waiting for you I stopped dying for you and I started dying for myself I aged rapidly I became fat in the face and soft in the gut and I forgot that I’d...|||Finally watched the film, Gandhi last night after meaning to for a long time. First of all, it's a really good film and a good history lesson for anyone (like me) who doesn't know the full story....|||Well, Hitler and Ghandi; both said to be INFJs, clearly if that were the case they must have both felt compassion but I imagine Hitler felt most of it for the indigenous German people whereas Gandhi...|||If the whole world was INFJ then many important things would be left undone, we'd spent a lot of time contemplating and discussing but no action.|||Seeing another thread about parent-types, I thought I'd mention my parental difficulties. My dad is an ESFP and we have never been emotionally close because of it.  My dad tries to substitute...|||Bigotry - usually based on lack of compassion/empathy.  Selfishness  Realism - in general, I hate having to think about my mundane job, having to do mundane chores, it's usually all the sensors...|||They sure do, even when I don't contribute much, they just seem to gravitate. I will have to start using my INFJ/counselling nature to consciously make friends and influence people a bit more.|||For one, I think threads like this are interesting even if they have no straight answer.  ESFJs, they deserve a mention, I can see how a relationship would be practical but that idea would seem to...|||I wouldn't call it a rigid decision making process, or at least it isn't under the surface. I'd say what triggers me to act impulsively is something which triggers strong emotion. So if I met someone...|||What they should remember is that we also give others a little lift and keep the peace; we let others get the good stuff and we save most of the bad stuff for ourselves.|||I definitely know what you mean, we don't like to say sensitive things willy nilly.

Neil Young is definitely an...|||Same here. That's why I'm here.|||I'd say pound for pound and with a little experience, ISTP and INFJ clash a bit, we annoy the hell out of you and you frustrate the hell out of us. Funny how you guys are called mechanics, the two...|||I clash a bit with an ISTP in truth; ESTPs are okay with me because they get things of their chest, when/if we clash I can get the closure I want then.

Did you immediately take a liking to strangers? No I didn't like going out of my comfort zone, I hated having to meet new people and was...|||Why's that?|||I would have thought an ESTJ or an ENTJ.
