I love the world outside, that is if you exclude all or most of the people in it.
That should be on a T-shirt.

So, in other words...
My fellow, lovely NFs, having been on a somewhat sensate sabbatical for a few months, I've come to realize... that there are more memories to be made than to simply be manufactured via fantasy!
Like you, I too can get perpetually lost, (and found), inside the safety of my comfortably chaotic universe of a head.
But there's a universe out there too!
Outside of you.
Other people, vacant lots begging for company, sand crabs boring holes underneath your toes in the sand, cinnamon dusted cappaccinos, conversations that begin at three in the morning.
Dancing!
Lovely poetry written on bathroom stalls, secrets exposed, secretly.
Tears, hugs, blue cheese drizzled with honey.
Dogs drooling on and outside your car, their tongues, their smiles!
Running on concrete with one boy slinging from your arms and the other one clinging on your back, making them laugh!!!
Sipping wine in a courtyard with a chain-smoking cancer patient.
99 cent stores!!!
Flirting with baristas, flirting with flirts, confiding in strangers with a knowing smirk.
Concerts, crowds, collecting bracelets from various vendors.
Touching people.
Smelling people.
Seeing them, feeling them... firsthand.
There's a whole world out there, beckoning....
CaptainChick, what about being exposed to people who insult you, act mean, act like jerks, etc.? Why doesn't that seem to affect extroverts such as yourself?
Reading this thread, I can't help but think of this:
I see trees of green........ red roses too
I see them bloom..... for me and for you
And I think to myself.... what a wonderful world.
I see skies of blue..... clouds of white
Bright blessed days....dark sacred nights
And I think to myself .....what a wonderful world.
The colors of a rainbow.....so pretty ..in the sky
Are also on the faces.....of people ..going by
I see friends shaking hands.....saying.. how do you do
They're really saying......I love you.
I hear babies cry...... I watch them grow
Theyll learn much more.....than I'll never know
And I think to myself .....what a wonderful world
How very flattering of you! :rolli:Jump.
Might as well.
Awful tune by Van Halen. Could easily be an ENFP theme song.
ARE YOU KIDDING?!!?CaptainChick, what about being exposed to people who insult you, act mean, act like jerks, etc.? Why doesn't that seem to affect extroverts such as yourself?
I just got off a plane and got like three hours of sleep.Because They just say: 'That's just them and their opinion, I can find cooler people, whatever.'
As an introvert we value the self even more, so if someone criticizes it we feel attacked as a being. Extraverts see it more objectively, usually.
How very flattering of you! :rolli:
