Yes, well, they don't call it projection for nothing.
Now THAT'S just funny.

I'm sure we all act like the "stereotype" of our type a good amount of the time - that's where the stereotypes come from in the first place - because that's how we tend to act. And I'm also pretty sure that a good chunk of people (all?) don't always make the proper adjustment (by behaving "out of type" when it's called for). There will be times when we don't do it. If you're the one guy who doesn't do that, then I want to come watch, observe, and take notes. So, if healthy = always knowing when to act out of type when the situation calls for it, then I still make the mistake and I guess I can't be considered healthy. Even when I'm 65 years old and Si and Fe are (hopefully) fully developed, I'm sure I'll still make the mistake from time to time.
What are some other reasons people may not take well to us?
What you actually said was "I don't know how else I could have acted". if that's the case you should seriously look into it.
If in reality you do know how else to act but in this particular instance didn't give a fuck, then fine, happens to all of us.
She seems to be describing herself.

There are a number of things that can result in people not taking well to someone which I'd imagine are independent of type:
- Complain
- Criticize
- Argue
- Show little interest in the other person
- Don't listen
- Tell people what to do
- Tell people they are wrong
- Don't try and understand the other person's perspective
I think he meant this to be a lighthearted thread and everyone else blew it way out of proportion.
I do so love seeing armchair psychology - always makes me chuckle at the attempts.
Well you are on an amateur psychology forum, wtf did you expect? Freud himself?
Hence, why I'm here. For the LOLZ. It never fails.

It's funny... you can really tell between those who have a knack for reading other people, and the ones who flail about randomly, mistaking their dislike for other posters with their own self-loathing.
Kinda sad, really - but funny in a perverse way.
Reason #1. Playing devil's advocate (or challenging everything that another person says):

Back to the point of this thread. Are there other things INTP's do (whether on purpose or unknowingly) that alienate us from people or cause them to not like us?
But anyway you do act like the things you are criticizing. :hi: that's not armchair psychology just an observation. I don't claim to know your motivation, just the end result.
LOLZ!
Do it again!
FYP. Are you guys tickling each other?
nah, I prefer an enfj.
Here's the problem - we don't instigate. Q and I definitely do have jerk modes, but it's usually in response to someone being a jerk for no reason whatsoever. If you're nice and considerate of others, we'll act the same in kind. If you're abrasive and self-centered, well, we'll make sure you leave unhappier than you came in.Fair enough.

the irony of this post knows no bounds.

See the difference?
Yes. You and Q are better than INTP's? Is it something like that?
