[SJ] SJ .. What are you feeling at this moment???

[Haven]

I think one of the guys I work with is an ESFP software engineer. What are the odds?

 

[tinker683]

Feel like shit. Just had two good friends of mine tell me that I was ignoring them so now I feel like a really bad friend :'(

 

[Malice]

kind of guilty about the way I acted last night, not looking forward to work today and hoping to high hell I have a good long weekend because I certainly deserve it.

Like I'm surrounded by sheep. When I suggest something different I get strange looks, like the idea of doing something different is just unheard of. Because we're in person and mid-conversation, when I ask questions they must not be used to hearing, they have to take a second to recalculate from the normal answer they are used to spitting out, but what they come up with is really sad and unsatisfactory. I get a lot of stuttering and what seems like winging it. This I figured out in hindsight. I'm hoping they just need more time to drum up something different that will be helpful to me. I think that most of the creativity is going to have to come from me though, but I definitely need some help from them. I know people are resistant to change around here so I guess I have my work cut out for me. I can tell I'll need all the strength, resolve and perseverance that I can muster up.

I don't feel like myself. Which is weird for me because I've never had an issue with my identity, but now I'm having almost an existential crisis. I worry that this summer has changed me; now that I'm back to school, I feel like everyone else has aged three months and I've aged ten years. (I guess that's what living independently, adult-ly, alone and away from friends will do to you?)

Hopefully I'll settle into things later; but in the meantime, I feel like I've become an introvert, spending too much time in my head and too little time in the moment, with people. Pls pls someone make my shadow INFP go away!

Might you tell me what the exact context of this experience is?

 

[tinker683]

Conflicted. A friend of mine is in need of help but he's been in need of help many times before and he's taken advantage of me before because he doesn't know to keep his life together so now I'm not helping him but feeling really bad because of it. GAAAHHH stupid emotions

 

[Noon]

Extremely happy.

Feelings are only icky when they revolve around someone.

 

[Malice]

mixed and conflicted.

 

[Noon]

Tired.

 

[Saslou]

I want to post here today.

Fucking depressed and its lasted all day .. I think i need to sleep and forget the world.

 

[Noon]

[Giggly]

lol where have all the SJs gone....?

 

[Noon]

Giggly!

 

[Giggly]

Giggly!

Hey Noon. It's worrisome to me that there are so few SJs here. Not sure why, but it makes me feel uncomfortable.

 

[Noon]

^ Are you really a 9 now instead of a 2?

If so, awesome! 9s are one of my favorite types


oh and, I think I have a headache.

 

[Malice]

cold, tired, 'thinky', confused, etc.

 

[Giggly]

Confused.
I've been hanging around closed-off and/or cold people for so long that when I meet someone who is open and warm and friendly (which I really crave) I am completely startled and I don't know what to do or say or think at first. It's just not something I'm used to and I hate that I act weird at first.

 

[Tiger Owl]

I am currently feeling vaguely amused.

 

[Giggly]

I am new here but in case anyone is interested. I am currently feeling vaguely amused that I have procrastinated the entire afternoon away reading this forum because I don't feel ready to focus on studying for the exam I will take Monday. Not panicky, not mad, not anything really. Just vague amusement.
However, I am sitting in a hidden corner of a Barnes and Noble cafe with my back to the wall "studying" and a very EF, very attractive classmate showed up wearing skin tight workout clothes. She has quieted down now, after 25 minutes of non-stop, mile-a-minute, tangential conversation (very bubbly and energetic and thrilled to have a listener) the duration of which I was really wishing she would look away for a second so I could stare at her cleavage.
Any SJ's or NT's know how to break the spell of procrastination/distraction?

edit: I convinced her to take the MBTI (She was a psych major and couldn't remember her type so she was excited to take it.) and drum roll...
ESFJ.

1. Click the little red X in the corner
2. Move to another location that doesn't have the hot girl
3. Think about how awesome you'll feel when you get good results on the exam

BTW, I struggle with these type of distractions all the time too so I speak from experience.
