[ISTJ] How not to pursue an ISTJ

[Take Five]

Don't use excessively foul language.

Hmm, my ESTJ hates swearing too. Like she covers her ears and gets nervous, as though the police are going to knock down the door and arrest me. I think it's pretty cute really.

Do something cool or fun. They hate that.

I think it's the latter. Who made the ENFP the thread police?

When it takes an ENFP to give out the tough love, you know you have a problem.

Erin sounds hot when she's pissed.

Well I for one don't expect people to change. This thread just explains why certain people shouldn't expect to get lucky with us or why they should just avoid us in general if they're planning to do any of the above. Not that it would make any difference because I'd just walk away anyway.

It just makes me uncomfortable and takes me off guard. I need to prepare myself mentally for these things.

I'm with Shadow on that it makes me feel uncomfortable. I'm not so sure why either. This might be a conflict between E/I?

 

[Lady_X]

okay...sorry, said i was bowing out...i just don't get it. the introverts i've known appreciated the friendly...but i get that a lot of you don't so..okay.

 

[Eagle]

To much friendly can be overwhelming. Just bombard us with lots of information to process. Extroverts just don't dwell on it.

raz, I saw someone who looked just like you on the Jerry Springer show. I'm cereal. I thought it was you. Are you in love with a girl and got her pregnant and then she cheated on you but you're still in love with her, but your best (unattractive) female friend who you constantly talk to about the girl you love has finally confessed her feelings for you on the jerry springer show and now you dont know what to do?

lol.

 

[nightning]

Too much work involved... how about not pursuing? Better to let the ISTJs reel themselves in.

 

[Amargith]

agreed. they do just fine on that

You probably don't want to be quoted again, but it relates to what I was going to say, which is that even though a lot of the things being mentioned sound true, romance works in weird ways (old but accurate stance, I think) and sometimes we like things we wouldn't have expected.

That's why it's tough for me to give a good answer for this thread.
