I'll probably have more to say as I think on it but I'll say this for now. If you peeked in on me all by myself, you'd see me stare off frequently followed by a "feeling face". I'd probably look like an idiot...a short laugh, a smile at my thoughts, a sigh, a scowl etc...Because I'm my own...
I applaud you and find that kind of scrutiny refreshing! (and so INTP which I love) I didn't say your Uncle was wrong...and I didn't say your uncle was right. You have to struggle with this and decide for yourself. This is an opportunity/challenge to yourself. You have to be as honest as you're...
Sorry to butt in but do you think you're indecisiveness is out of a lack of courage or genuinely need to explore your options further? Sometimes the harsh things people say to us are an opportunity to define yourself. Decide from the best in you.
As for your angry reaction, if you don't...
Ok, this is weird but sometimes right before I fall asleep where flitting thoughts, images and the like happen but not actually asleep, I have the detached sense of myself as either expanding or imploding infinitely through time. That's the best way I can explain it??? In both cases it happens...
Ha! Narcissist aside, sounds like the advice was helpful and maybe the care and concern of members had it's own impact...My shameless attempt to give it a feeling spin;)
I'm looking forward to reading the threads you linked! Thank you. Philosophical threads are my favorite. And the subjective/objective dichotomy seems to come up frequently and maybe is a culprit in the fierce debates I frequently see here.
I'd like the forum's members to identify one or two threads that had some impact on them. Please explain what impact and why along with the thread link or title. I'm making this general but if you'd like some idea of type of impact, think in terms of "ah-ha" moments, vindication, schooled...
Expression is intrinsically rewarding...but only if I have someone to hear/see it. It brings me to mind Castaway. He had no one to talk or express to. Every time he had an idea or emotion, he would express it but become dismayed because there was no one there to hear it. He eventually used the...
After reading this thread, it brought to mind the movie Contact.
From Wikepedia on the film: A description of an emotionally intense experience by Palmer Joss, which he describes as seeing God, is met by Arroway's suggestion that "some part of [him] needed to have it"—that it was a significant...
I respect A.J Drenth's perspective immensely. Psychology is a good field for an INTP but not in directly conducting therapy (too people intensive) but rather in research. One area you may want to look into is marketing analytics. This incorporates psychology and anthropology toward qualitative...
I see both free will and determinism to operate and affect each other. The analogy I use is a river. At it's source it is small, fast and easily diverted to travel in various directions. As the river flows and tributaries feed into it, it becomes wider and harder to divert until it empties into...
I'm not sure if this is the right placement for this thread but if not, I yield to the moderators to move to a more appropriate place. I came across this:

"What's the main condition to sustain infinite potential such as ours if not a...
I had to giggle after reading your post op:) Dancing for me is about allowing the music to move me and having fun! Your description just tickled me as it's about a learning of how to touch and be touched. I suppose that could have a bearing on the touching thing, but my hope for you is to just...

How did I find out that I'm INFJ: I've always been interested in personality but about 5 years ago, I started really looking into Jungian types. Have known that I'm INFJ for 20 years.
How did...
I'll take a stab...Infants, within the womb are one with their mother connected by the umbilical cord and inextricably dependent. The differentiation process starts as infants outside the womb with our body cues. The sense of where you physically end and other things begin. It comes from your...
