This isn't as weird a question as it probably sounds.
I'm very down-to-earth and by no means a hippy with interests in the spiritual realm or whatever (although it can be intriguing), but I'm just intrigued at how my ISFJ boyfriend can seem to, literally, read my mind.
I've noticed it for a while, but just deemed it weird coincidence. Like, I'd think to myself that I really wanted him to call me, and then he'd call. [he just called me at this very moment!!! Point proven.]
Once, his mum accidentally called me and then he called his mum during the conversation. I asked him later why he'd called then and he said he doesn't know, he just felt something weird was happening.
But anyway, what really freaked me out was yesterday I was listening to an obscure song I like (by Diary of Dreams, for reference). He's never heard this song before, I'm sure of it. And yet, when I was listening to it with my headphones on in the room next to one he was in, he started whistling along to it, at exactly the same point in the track that I was listening to. There was no way he could have heard it - I don't play things so loudly on my headphones that anyone else can hear. He did a similar thing this morning with a song that was playing in my head. Really weird.
He also mentions things that have been occupying my mind a lot earlier that day or in the week, completely random things that he would never know I'd been thinking about. My ISFP best friend at school, and my ISFP mum, used to do that actually.
I wonder if SFs are really tuned in to people's thoughts in some subconscious way.
Anyone think there may be a grain of truth in this? Or am I reading too much into it all?
