Hey,
Just wanted to ask a question to any ISTPs who are married or contemplating marriage. Do you really look on it forever? Are you able to plan ahead and commit completely like that?
I am 25 but struggling to comprehend the concept of being with one person forever. i just don't see myself being able to commit like that. I am honest about it and therefore wouldn't ever make commitments i felt unable to keep.
But i was wondering if this is just me as a lot of ISTPs on here seem to be married/in very settled relationships.
However on the ISTP type description it says: "If the ISTP says 'I Do' it usually means 'I do for now'" and there is a lot about ISTPs struggling to commit and plan for the future etc.
Has anyone else felt like this or not? Is it something you have had to deal with and get over in order to make lifetime commitments?
