I think I've experienced this with INTJs before, but I'm wondering if it could be some other type too, like ISTJ? It's just that I don't really think ISTJs do that to me in particular - it seems to have happened most with the INTJ. Anyone else experienced this?
Massive wall of text. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Nulla congue ex a orci efficitur, sit amet accumsan metus varius. Suspendisse semper sapien eros, hendrerit tempor arcu feugiat congue. The house burned down, my farm was attacked by a plague of locusts, my wife doesn't think I'm sexy anymore and she left me for another man, the truck broke down, my dog broke his leg and I'm crying over my beer, and so on and so forth. Can you help?
INTJ reply: No. (or a terse 'yes' depending on whatever the question was about).
I just had this happen recently (elsewhere, not in this forum) and was trying to guess the type of the person who said it, without having much information to go on about that person. It was a quick judgment where the person seemed to skim through what I had said and then gave an answer without emotion, even though the situation was personal and emotional. (I was just kind of copying stuff from country songs to fill that in. I'm not a man and my wife didn't leave me, but I've had some really awful crap going on in my life lately.)
Might some other type do that kind of thing too, depending on the situation? If all that I can know about this person is their personality type, then I am able to understand why they are doing what they're doing, and that helps me, even though I cannot easily get what it was that I wanted from them.
