O.O you guys rehearse speeches @Daeus @Emma-Flournoy??? That’s… awful. 😛 I have imaginary conversations but I never consciously rehearse anything. XD
I suppose that’s because J types like to come prepared and Ps just like to deal with it when it happens. More power to ya. 😉
@Bluejay that sounds about right. 😀Since we’re talking about MBTI, I might as well mention that though each person is dominantly one of the types, it’s very seldom they fulfill ALL the stereotypes. For instance, INFPs are supposed to despise logic, despise debate, and do everything they can to avoid conflict. I despise discord. But I love logic and honest debate, and I can also be fiercely competitive. That’s just me. That’s Kate. It has nothing to do with my type whatsoever.
On top of those little personal contradictions, each type also comes with its own surprising paradox. Here— I’ll try and post a chart.
October 7, 2016 at 12:43 pm #18797Yup @Kate-Flournoy. The difference between J and P, I guess.
Did you re-rehearse it afterwards millions of times in preparation for a similar situation in the future?
@Daeus Kinda; more like resaid it a million times afterwards with how I wish I’d said it, and berated myself for not having been calmer. 😛
@Bluejay Yeah, that sounds right. I’ve got both of those.And then I’ve got extrovert aftershock, which is thinking about everything I said, after the fact, and worrying that I was too extroverted, and that I might have put someone off, or given them the wrong impression, or offended them…kinda like this quote from Pinterest: What the the types think about before they fall asleep: ENFJ: what that person meant when they said that thing and how to now approach that person in light of this thing. Wonders what their own response to the thing says about them. And this: I’ve got 99 problems and 86 of them are completely made up scenarios in my head that I’m stressing about for absolutely no logical reason.
@Daeus , I’ve felt this way several times after my interaction with you in the past, on KP and in person; it’s totally not your fault, just my overdeveloped sense of worry (or that I really was being too forward). So since I’m talking about this—I’m sorry if I was ever being too forward or made you uncomfortable; and I’m sorry in advance if it happens again. 😉
Whew. It’s good to get that out.
And if I never really was posing a problem, I’m sorry now for worrying about it…in case it’s making you uncomfortable. *groan* It’s kind of a vicious circle.I know on a forum like this I have absolutely no reason to worry that I’m offending someone; but I do anyway. So now, dear KeePers, if I’m ever acting weird after a long conversation, you know—it’s probably because I’m worried I hurt someone’s feelings or said the wrong thing in one of my posts. I shall try to worry less.
Thanks for letting me rant. I love brothers and sisters in Christ who are understanding. 🙂One more thing—I hope this post doesn’t upset anyone, for any reason whatsoever. 😀

October 7, 2016 at 1:03 pm #18799October 7, 2016 at 1:40 pm #18803I’ll rehearse or write out a question if I’m going to call someone, @kate-flournoy, but normally I just plunge in and hope everything works in. And as for that chart… *covers face with hands* Yep, pretty accurate.
Here’s another one.
INTJ - Inhumane. No-feelings. Terrible. Judgment and doom on everyone.
October 7, 2016 at 1:41 pm #18804Hmm…that didn’t work. Let me try again.
INTJ - Inhumane. No-feelings. Terrible. Judgment and doom on everyone.
October 7, 2016 at 1:41 pm #18805Yes!!!

October 9, 2016 at 8:29 pm #18883Aaaahhhh!!! My contradiction and those two quotes of yours, @emma-flournoy. *hangs head* I have nothing more to say.
Oh, wait. The no offense speech was well worth the time you spent writing it, if only for my merriment. Very humorous.

@Daeus Heh…I take that to mean I was worrying for no reason. 😛 (But—‘accepting but judgemental’, your contradiction! I could have had reason to worry!) Well, thanks anyway. I feel very much easier now. *wry grin*
I shall endeavor to control my worry.Aaaahhhh!!! My contradiction and those two quotes of yours, @emma-flournoy. *hangs head* I have nothing more to say.
What, you mean you get that too?!
October 10, 2016 at 1:05 pm #18909@emma-flournoy Yep. Those describe me perfectly, though what’s even more true is that I play through possible future situations with people and converse back and forth with them, generally saying something wrong and then talking my way out of it. My favorite mental game is playing myself conversing against a friend and then trying to avoid answering a certain question from them, without seeming to try to avoid it. Sometimes I even start off by proposing that I can talk myself out of answering anything and then beg them to try me.
Also, I may or may not have subconsciously decided that your tendency to worry over words is a fun button to press. I may or may not be mischevious like that every once and a while. I shall have to think about this.

October 10, 2016 at 1:26 pm #18911@Daeus… *glares ominously, shakes finger* If Emma is my agent, I am equally her protector against mental destruction, and I myself am indestructible. *shakes finger again* So have a care, sir, what you do.

October 10, 2016 at 2:23 pm #18916@Daeus That is hilarious.

*groan* I can’t answer for my worry, then. 😛
Okay…we’ll see if that happens how often I can tell when you’re faking. I’m generally pretty good at reading people, but…hm.🙂
October 10, 2016 at 2:50 pm #18918@kate-flournoy *folds hands* *smiles lightly* I wouldn’t try it.
@emma-flournoy Well, I wouldn’t exactly call it faking. I prefer to think of it as being selective with my impressions. I guess you can phrase it however you want though, but that’s just you.🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢
