There is a site called LiveJournal.com where you can make private or "friends only" journal entries. I have a Live Journal. It's very helpful if you just need to vent, or don't want people to offer their opinions on what you've posted. Everyone needs a space to vent. I just don't think Type C is the most secure place for it.
I felt you two were just seeing this whole post as self-centered. I do know there is a lot of selfishness in loving ideals instead of people, and that is why I was repenting. I do not reject them after finding out they are flawed, this is where I start making a true effort to love them as they are. I have never just "rejected" anyone in that way, and that's the truth.
Yes, I do need to clean-up inside of myself, but ultimately, I do this in order to be more effective and useful in society. I start to get really annoyed with myself if I stay in the P mode for too long and find myself contemplating my emotional needs and all.
I was discussing this with my ENFP friend the other day, and she didn't really understand this. It is a priority for her to contemplate within herself for days and all. I have also seen such comments here from INFPs. I feel useless and impatient if I see myself doing this for too long.
Although I will say that I have met NFPs, that after contemplating and being respected in that need did amazing things for society, one of my INFP friends going to serve as a nurse in Africa and the Great North. I admire them very much.
I don't like being told again and again that I'm selfish and self-centered while I was repenting about it in the first place.
