You think I don't?Rasofy - He seems to be also asking for various advices on how to act or what to do in a certain situation. Once again, I can't relate to that, I prefer my own thoughts and my own personality
Your life will get much easier once you get humble enough to recognize that there are people out there much more qualified than you to know how to deal with pretty much any given situation. Besides, when I ask questions I'm looking for good data to make my own conclusions.I don't ask people what I should do.
My parents have been paying everything so, despite the fact that I find parties boring, I get a lot of free gifts and some good food. Money is not an issue for them, and I know they would be offended if I told them I don't want more parties. Birthday parties have a lot of social value to them, and it's important for me to be a good son once in a while. That said, it is a rational choice for me to participate in.In one of his posts about the irrationality of birthdays, he implies that he condones to all that nonsense, and yet he thinks it's irrational. That makes him a hypocrite, which I do not do. If I find something irrational, I skip doing it.I think the first time I've told my parents to not organize a birthday was when I was about 10 or so, as the money I was gifted was stolen and used to buy my clothes anyway and I used to get relatively good food.
You need to get rid of this cynic pragmatism and learn the pragmatic value of reciprocity. There's still time.However, I never bring a present if I go to someone else's birthday: they have to invite me because I'm "family" anyway, therefore bringing a present is impractical and pointless, as I don't care what they think about me in the first place - the important thing is to get a lot of quality food.
I also like how this guy categorizes his points with the help of "-."
Isn't that contradictory?
Yes, of course. It's good you recognise it as a shallow assessment but it's also not the way you should go about typing yourself.. that relating to random segments of others' posts supposedly in your MBTI group. If you wish to try and relate to them, communicate, otherwise you should provide common examples of the way your mind works in receiving certain external information.I've given my thoughts based on ~5-10 posts, by reading only the original posts in each of the threads created specifically by them. I didn't create this post to analyze them and I'm not saying that they ultimately are the way I've described them. I took the basic information that I had a look at and compared it to my thoughts and actions.
Now it's time for the communication game, possibly limited to this topic.
You sounded a lot like [MENTION=5143]Salomé[/MENTION] there. Perhaps you will relate to her style more.I like being honest.
In their way. There's always many ways to deal with any situation, constantly asking for advice; that I see as being unconfident. If you can solve a problem (decide) yourself, why ask others to solve it (make a decision) for you? Think for yourself for once.
As far as I know, inferior function develops after the primary function. Then goes the rest, not sure in what order.
Because it isn't, I am not looking to put myself in a frame and live by the defined rules. I'm merely looking for what type I am according to it for curiosity purposes.
.
This is the order of "importance," not of the sequence by which they develop.
Extroverted feeling should let me feel for people and want to be respected, sometimes get a bit emotional and maybe not always base my decisions on logic. I'm unsure about this though.
Not sure what you meant by this.
So far, I liked her posts the most out of the posters of which posts I've compared previously.
Doesn't it make more sense that the main function needs balancing out?
[MENTION=13260]Rasofy[/MENTION] and secretive about her type. (why isn't there a smile in shadows? Like the bandit smiley in Skype?)
It makes more sense to me this way: primary function develops first, then the inferior develops to balance out with the strong primary. Then Ne and Si as "helpers."
Generally, everyone uses every function. Typically 4 functions are used all the way and are developing slow until you're 30 or 40, unless you hasten that process consciously. The other 4 functions can be used, however that rarely happens, even rarer if one uses them extensively, as good as the primary and secondary functions. The inferior and Si (was it tertiary?) simply influences your decisions. The influence can depend if you are conscious about what manipulates your decisions shadowy from the bushes behind you. In that case, you can ignore identify that your decision isn't entirely based on feelings or logic and tailor it as if the inferior/Si wouldn't be influencing it.
That's my theory anyway.
Sometimes she appears a bit too enthusiastic,
First and foremost - feel free to ask any questions.
I have always thought I am INTP, liked ENTPs, wanted to be INTJ, thought ENTJs are stupid. Reasons, respectively: Personality tests said so; they are fun, deduced from the movie character "Iron Man"; they achieve something; in the movies they are presented as those spitting fat guys, cleaning sweat from their foreheads and ordering everyone around to do everything. However, I have investigated more about the types recently, and I've found out that my information about the types wasn't all that well presented, including INTPs. I am even in doubt of what type I am!
I think this problem is partly here because I haven't had much experience yet.
