What is the most nonconformist you have done? I like how some of you guys push boundaries.
My entire life.... maybe. I dunno.
I tend to show up as "nonconformist" because I have a clear (yet fluid) view of the world and I adhere to that above all else. If something happens that falls outside of my Fi Quantum box, then I will probably conform to whatever will get the ball rolling, or make other people happy.
Example:
Friend: Let's go to dinner! Where do you want to go?
Me: (Thinking..... hmm, I don't really care, but I know they are kind of picky so I'm good with whatever they want.) Hmm, you know I am kind of in the mood for anything. Is there somewhere special you want to go?
Friend: Oh.... well, if you don't mind I would LOVE to get pizza!
Me: Sounds like fun!
My Fi QB says: Making a friend feel good/happy is the most important thing.
Or:
Example:
Friend: Your tool box is a disgrace. What are you thinking? You need to buy the following: *makes a list*
Me: (She's being pushy... I don't need any tools despite what she thinks because I don't plan on fixing anything because I am lazy) Yeah, not gonna do it.
Friend: YOU HAVE TO!! I MADE A LIST!
Me: That's nice. You can make as many lists as your heart desires. Still not gonna do it.
Friend: You're being childish!!
Me: That's nice. Want to watch a movie?*****
My FI QB says: I don't need a wife, thanks though.
Maybe not the most concise of examples, but a bit of an idea. It's pretty much why I never did drugs. It (sad to my dad) wasn't because I was afraid of my parents being mad, or because I never had opportunities... It was more of a "hmm, do *I* want to try this? Hmm... not really. I don't see any benefit, and lots of potential negatives... Ok, that solves that!" So even when I had people pushing me on it, all it did was make me dig down deeper and ignore them. And part of my inner philosophy of "Govern yourself, idiots"
***** Hilariously enough for my birthday this year her gift to me was buying me all the items on her list. She even thought that she had "won" when in fact I feel like I won. A- She got off my back. B- She spent the money. C- I didn't have to do a thing but be lazy.
