Are they as others-focused as ISFJ?I’ve have gotten along well with them however their utilitarian approach occasionally irks me.
- Too private. Regardless of how long people have known them and close they are, it’ll take many Fi counselling sessions to get to the core of their problems. While they love and appreciate that someone recognises how they feel, their awareness of the underlying problem (or thought patterns) is limited and any input is dismissed quickly (although I realise this because they’re TJ and don’t spend time introspecting).
- Too others focused (this is only where pragmatism is necessary, otherwise they'll tend to themselves first), more than once I’ve seen people take advantage of their practical and charitable nature. Your duty is your duty, if no one else does it; your not obliged to do it.
- Too literal. Taking words at face value.
- Paranoia. Heightened in e6 ISTJs.
- Inability to read others so they project and they're rarely correct. They can be judgmental, too.
- Dismissal of opinions and thoughts before complete understanding of the issue.
- Rigidity, tradition, routine.
I'll entertain this idea. I think it's because most ISTJs are e6 => e6 is known for their anxiety => anxiety is a common cause of back pain.
