What do you tend to do by yourself? How do your thought patterns change? Refreshing? Draining?
Highly unlikely ENTJs dont get killed by their feelings for others too, sometimes.
Sure, they're human, but they seem to be able to shrug it off and go do their own business again fairly easily. I tend to stay influenced longer.
Maybe NT's are just better in control of their emotions than those flappy NFs.
my enfj gf would ponder over stuff by herself...or with me; apparently im the only person who gets her Ni-fueled analogies of life
she spends a fair amount of time alone. sometimes i think she only goes out for other people's sake and not really for herself...but shes a complete E

No, I meant they are just quicker with the revolver
Do you find alone time overall draining or refreshing?Hmmm..well I live alone so I do mostly everything alone. But socially. I totally don't mind taking myself to the movies alone, I rather see a comedy with someone else but anything else I'd rather see it alone) I do want to talk about a more meaty movie with someone after I see it, but I don't mind seeing it by myself. I don't mind shopping alone (in face I prefer it). I have more times than I can count gone out to eat alone altho I will take a book generally. I do the beach alone if no one is available to go with me and I don't mind....hmmm what else...not sure but I really don't mind at all doing things by myself.
As for my though patterns...I don't know that I've ever thought to think about how they change that's an interesting question. Do you mean are the changes refreshing or draining? I suppose that depends on what my thoughts are. Or do you mean how do they change while I'm doing what I do? Need to you clarify that for me before I can answer it I think.

This is one of the questions I have for myself, actually. I don't consider myself an extravert person *until* I'm amongst other people, so I wonder sometimes whether I'm an INFJ instead.
I find time alone to be very draining. The only time I can partially stand it is when I'm occupied on a task such as drawing for reading something. If I have nothing to do I usually start thinking about past experiences and it just ends very poorly for the most part.
I need huge amounts of alone time. I can't tell you the value I place on my alone time in the morning when the house is quiet and I have no one else's organic vibe rankling the atmosphere. It doesn't even matter if that person is being silent or is away from me - I can still feel them all over me and I have to flee. My head is a bus station full of people and their feelings/intentions that I will automatically try to process and assign. Fe-Ni, kneejerk. Like telling Einstein to pay attention to patents and ignore the equations.
Everything in it's place and a place for everything.
If I didn't a lot of alone time (and I mean hours of it) I would never be functional. Got to wash up and rid myself of the road slime from the day before. Processing and acceptance/rejection, like a person sorting through a box of donated clothes. Ridding your house of clutter and dust is feng shui, and I get a dust storm through my house every day that requires a thorough excommunication. I turn into a dragon if I don't get to take a tour of my island and rattle all the gates and check the moats.
I listen to music, write write write, light chat with friends as I can, but in a semi-removed manner until I power back up.
This is the life I WISH I had the capacity for.
