[MBTI General] Why are all the NFs jealous of the NTs?

[ajblaise]

Because we can visit Africa without adopting 3+ Sub-Saharan children.

 

[Haphazard]

Because we don't have as much to hide as they do.

Seriously, have you seen how many threads there are in the NF private forum?

 

[Nocapszy]

Right now they're jealous 'cause they can't post here.

 

[Maabus1999]

After reading their private forum, they definitely seem to care about discussing us more then us in the vice versa.

Why some folks over there posted valid observations, I think the main reason is we frustrate them beyond belief at times, though at times I don't think we know how we do/did it.

Though sometimes we do and its fun to push the buttons...especially the big, RED one

*LAUNCH*

I was just funnin' around, and assumed others were too. I don't dislike NFs a bit.

But yes, difference always leads to frustration because we don't understand and/or approve/disapprove of the same things. It also potentially leads to admiration.

 

[MacGuffin]

Because they start threads about how we get under their skin, but end up saying how dammed sexy we are anyway!

NT FTW.

 

[MacGuffin]

Also because we don't have to worry if someone doesn't get the joke. It's their fault if they don't get it!

NTs RULE

 

[Synarch]

I actually really like NF's. Especially, ENFP's and INFJ's. I just also like teasing them.

 

[INA]

Because we can appreciate (and secretly revel in the fact) that people may hate our guts without needing to think they are unhealthy and need therapy. Our world won't collapse at our feet.

 

[Oberon]

Because we can visit Africa without adopting 3+ Sub-Saharan children.

...each with his very own fly on his lip.

Thank you, Sally Struthers...

 

[Usehername]

lol.

When I was in Sub-Saharan Africa, almost everyone was gushing about how they wanted to "take one home" except for me and the two other INTJs. (And the ESFP afraid of kids.) Totally forgot about that one!

 

[MacGuffin]

Because we don't stop fighting because we are emotionally exhausted or guilty, but because we just got a bit bored.

your stopping sucks.

 

[MacGuffin]

your stopping sucks.

Starting is more fun.

 

[digesthisickness]

Starting is more fun.

only if they bite...

 

[ed111]

I'm not sure what the reason is, but I'm sure there's a rational explanation.

I'm not sure what the reason is, but I'm sure there's a rational explanation.

Actually, it looks like there are 12 pages of rational explanations.

 

[MacGuffin]

True, NTs just aren't good at manipulation like the NFs are.

 

[digesthisickness]

True, NTs just aren't good at manipulation like the NFs are.

eh. they just think they're good at it, and because we actually are, we let them think it.

...

it'll be interesting to see who doesn't get the subcontext of this conversation.

Yeah, but they often don't even realize they are being manipulative! It can make them so much more effective at it. I mean, for an NF manipulation is such an in-born trait it's the rare NF that understands how present it is.

Even pointing out there is subtext won't magically enable people to get it.
