I'm another Sensor (ISFP in fact) who's felt out of place just about everywhere I go, and that's part of why I typed as an iNtuitive. How does that even happen, I wonder now? It seems a natural consequence that someone who thinks totally differently, who processes information and looks at the world in a totally alien fashion and is naturally strongly attuned to the deeper aspects of life, would end up being ostracized out of envy or perceived danger.
But how does someone who's just like everyone else fall into the delusion that they're a misfit?
Well, you are, by default. Several people here have already pointed that out.
Then again, I mistyped as an N for a couple of years for fear of confronting the truth.
Exactly...i initially typed as N. Its actually a mental process that helped me realize we go about things backwards. Nothing at all to do with the world itself. I actually get along very easy with both S and N types. As well as struggle with both S and N types.
I think the biggest issue between S and N is correlation...not reality.
