Common interests, I suppose. I'm into cars, trains, guns, planes, and stuff like that. I've always been interested in mechanical stuff. I was home schooled, and when I was fairly young my mom read me The Way Things Work by David Macaulay. I understood most of it right away and ended up having to explain it to her a lot of the time.haha. What is it about ISTPs that attracts you? Because you seem to have collected a few of them.
I certainly don't get along with all ISTPs, but I don't get along with every single person of any other type either.
There are times when I tell people that I'm worried about stuff. Sometimes that just makes things worse.On that note, are there any good ways to tell when a Te-dom/ESTJ is just looking confident...but not actually feeling confident?
For some reason people tend to think that I'm smarter and more capable than I actually am. So when I voice my worries about something like a college course people tend to not take me very seriously and expect me to do well anyway. Then I'm not only worried about my ability to do the course, I'm also stressed out by their unrealistic expectations. Then people are surprised and disappointed with me when I crash and burn immediately and have to drop out.
