[ISTJ] ISTJs: Is love worth the trouble?

[Giggly]

Aww raz. that was a sweet post. I'm happy to hear about the new developments in your attitude too.

It's worth it, because love is the ultimate form of loyalty. An ISTJ that loves you is one of the greatest gifts a non-ISTJ can ever receive.

They dont know what they are missing!

Still true.

Well, it's been 2 1/2 years since I created this post and asked the question. I'm 29 now and my life has changed quite a bit since then. I was actually able to stick to my life plan exactly as I described in that first post. I even got married, believe it or not, to the first girl I had the guts to ask out on a date.

I wish I could say that the replies to my post had something to do with it, but in reality, I just needed to be patient and let life happen. It all worked out, and love has transformed me into a better person. Experience was the solution.

To any lonely, single, virgin ISTJ's out there in the same situation that I was, be patient. Get your ducks in a row if you need to, and don't get discouraged. Love isn't trouble, it's a process. Sure there's uncontrollable hormones and foolishness, but there's also potential for a deep and rewarding friendship and the luxury of completely being yourself without fear of rejection.

To my clueless and ignorant past self: YES! Love is most definitely worth the trouble!

What a silly question...

Now that is an awesome end to that chapter.

^ Holy shit, from the OP situation to marriage? God damn. You ISTJs waste no time.

Now I see why my (now) ISTJ boyfriend wanted a straight answer about whether I wanted to be with him. You guys are very "no ifs ands or buts."
