An acquaintance of mine is an ISFP. He has a really bizarre sense of humor. Whenever he does a funny, nonsense tumbles out of his mouth. English words, but totally random, non-sequitur stuff. He has a penchant for making awkward moments even more awkward, to try to get you to laugh.
He gives me this face a lot: kind of a sidelong glance, a mix of "holy crap you're weird" and vague distrust, when I didn't even do anything weird. Unless me talking to him counts as being weird. Makes me feel totally uncomfortable and crappy when he gives me that look. But I guess that look is part of him being funny, because all the rest of his friends think it's funny when they get that look from him.
It's not like he's unpopular. He's got tons of friends all over the place. And they all think he's funny. As for me, I can only laugh at his shtick when he and his brother (IxTP) are together. They make an amazing comedy team.
I try to be friendly and nice to him, but I get the feeling like this guy just really does not like me at all. Had that feeling since we met 5 years ago. It's a really nasty feeling. And I've tried asking him why he doesn't like me or what I did, and he says there's nothing wrong. I feel like there's a username and password I have to login to in order to understand this guy, and everyone but me got the login instructions. I don't think he's intentionally being a jerk, but I just don't get it.
He's the only confirmed ISFP I know, and he's left kind of a bad taste in my mouth. I don't want to judge a whole group of people based on my experience with one individual, so.... I don't know.
Does any of that sound familiar?
