Saying that being a scientist or a mathematician is just "knowing a lot about something that already exists" is like saying that being a writer is just reusing words you've read somewhere, or that being a painter is just reproducing things you see, or that being a musician is just using those notes over and over.
It's reductive and ultimately dumb.

Nothing wrong with liking math but the way they teach it in school is completely useless to artistic people who need to know WHY something works to really understand it, the teachers themselves probably don't even know the real reason. If you taught the most complicated equations through addition and subtraction and with use of pictures and objects you would have a much more tangible grasp on why 7Xz54^^^>7 = 2/3Sin which is just meaningless symbols used to abstract meaningless answers in the eyes of an artist

They do teach you the theory. Most people just don't study it, and just learn how to do the exercises mnemonically and stick to it.
If you study the theory, the theorems, the reasoning behind the exercises you do you can visualise the things you write even if they're written with symbols.
At least, when I graduated high school we studied up to Calculus II and I knew what I was doing. You just have to fucking study it.
>>
Math is the worst. I never even learned BEDMAS, because every time I was taught that shit, the next teacher would just change it, so I'd learn that, then go back the other teacher, and then they'd tell me it was wrong.

Infuriating.

It wasn't like, "This is what you did, and this is what you should've done!" It was always like I'd made some fucking ground up mistake. It just seemed to change depending on where ever the fuck you learned it. So much for a universal language?

I don't understand you animal people. They're the biggest pain in the ass ever, and anything more than providing for them for the rest of their lives, letting them shit/piss wherever they please, and caring for them is considered abuse.

Rape, infanticide, genocide etc are all pretty common in animals. They're innocent because they're too dumb to understand that's morally questionable. Which is ok, but that suggests the opposite of the claim that humans are stupid.
>>

It was just upsetting to continually try, and be told that everything I do is wrong, and nothing more than that. All these teachers got so hard off the concept of numbers that they forgot that they were there to teach.

Another ISTP reporting in. Now gib me advise

>>18184768
This is pretty much math up until calculus where it's still formulaic but you need to use more reasoning and conceptual understanding. Then once you get past that it's a lot less "use this formula" and a lot more "prove why this formula works." But the idea is that you have to understand things like basic algebraic manipulation and fundamental mathematical properties before you can approach them with a bit more formality. I can think of something like the formal definition of a complex number as an ordered pair of real numbers and the laws of arithmetic on them (which are really basic undergrad things) being a lot harder to understand if you were never taught to FOIL or that sqrt(-1)=i. But I do agree with >>18184764
In that a lot of primary-high school teachers don't really know what they're doing because they were trained to teach those students, not to teach math.
>>18184822
You're asking why they don't teach you how to build a castle before they teach you how to build a door.

>Rape, infanticide, genocide etc are all pretty common in animals.
Including humans.

>They're innocent because they're too dumb to understand that's morally questionable.
Out in the wild, (subjective) human morals clearly don't matter. Animal instinct is what keeps them alive.

>Which is ok, but that suggests the opposite of the claim that humans are stupid.
We have the capacity to reflect on our (subjective) human morals, and yet people clearly still do questionable things for the sake of enjoyment. I'm not saying all humans are dumb, but a good portion are.

Because to build shit like that requires a set of information that builds upon shit you still don't have on lockdown. They're trying to teach you how to apply basic interest rates, and you're wondering why they don't teach you 400 level crap.

>>18184832
>Including humans.
Sure, that's one of my points. Humans can be shitty, but generally we agree that the guy eating his kids is kind of a dick. Animals are innocent, and dumb. Humans lack that innocence because we can reflect on our actions.

Maintain a schedule and hold yourself to it.
>>
>>18184831
Yeah I mean I totally get this, for most of my life I was the "math is really stupid, why do they teach me this when a calculator can do it, this isn't relevant to my life at all" type but really it took one teacher in high school to really change my mind and show me things that I hadn't seen before, and she's why I wouldn't mind ending up as a teacher if I meant I got to keep studying and learning new things all my life. It really is more of a parent/teacher problem than a student problem imo.
>>18184842

I've been trying this lately more because I have to than anything, but it's kinda funny how what's probably the hardest thing for an ISTP to do is the most helpful thing.

Depends on where you live and who you talk to. If I could avoid jail time, I'd be willing to eat a person or two hundred.

Yeah but you're probably kind of a dick so it balances out.

Adorable is subjective. Innocence, I don't agree with. It's all in the training, human or animal.

>I train and rescue animals, so pissing/shitting is never an issue. Don't lump me in with irresponsible pet hoarders. Please and thank you.

Yup, everybody's an expert, and nobody's wrong until they're told otherwise.

>I treat animals like animals, not kids. I don't want kids.

Good. We don't need more children, either. My point was that there isn't much difference, so a child would be more rewarding in the long run.
>>
>>18184855
I used to be same. I got over it by thinking about those people. They had shitty lives. They will learn eventualy. And sadly you cant do anyhing about it. We have to let stupid people be stupid.

yes, we don't need children at all xD

but Muslims need to have tons of children, don't be so racist!

If White people do it, it's totally unnecessary and only causes overpopulation! Think of the future generations! We're all gonna become one big mixed race anyway :DDD But le global warming is totally real and caused by man. Yes, that's a totally different thing xD.

Why have children and raise them Christian and with Western values? Dat's totally racis and mysoginiss and sexist you shitlord! Le patriarchy needs to be defeated, go Sanders ex dee. Athiesm rocks, woooooooo!!!!!11111 Gommunism is a great idea amirite? Fug Tonald Drumpfff :DDDDD

I do this for a living (the training/vet part), so I am technically an expert.

>My point was that there isn't much difference, so a child would be more rewarding in the long run.
And that's also subjective. I won't get any reward out of children because I don't feel the same way about them as people normally do. I get paid well, which is rewarding enough, but generally I find more enjoyment in interacting with animals over people. But I will admit that my profession does skew how I feel about humans in the amount of animal abuse I see on a weekly basis. That's par for the course.

I don't disagree. I just find it bizarre when I mention that I like animals and people think I'm some young dumb thing that hoards animals, or that I'm the well-to-do vegan type that's looking to save the world.

>Eh, just abused humans. Much more stubborn, no doubt.
I have sympathy for abused humans, particularly kids. Turning my house into a foster home when I'm old and providing some stability/wealth to a few kids is something I've thought of doing. But I'm just not interested in having my own.

Why live in a world thats now worthy of being save?

If life is such a flawed system that it requires my guidance, then it's only in the natural order for it to eventually fail. There's no reason to fret over it, and certainly no need to waste energy trying to prevent it.

>Think of animals or w/e its fight worth fighting

I owe nothing else any more than it owes me. This isn't my battle to fight, I'm just here to observe.

>>18184878
>is your selfishness caused by you being addicted to endorphins and short term enjoyment?

I wouldn't say so. I'm just me. As a selfish person, it's not as though I cannot perform selfless acts, but rather that in the end, my own experience matters more. There's no point in acting selflessly for the selfish. In that same way, I don't want people acting selflessly for me, either.

The closest I come are girls into pop culture and stuff, but that's not really something I'm super interested in-I just want to talk about books and history and philosophy and politics etc. I can't bear gossip. I think I'm going to die alone, probably committing suicide at 30.

Guilty. I've met a few of those types. Some people think they're the ones saving the animals, when in reality, the animals are the only thing saving them. It can be difficult to watch.

I wouldn't mind if you were trying to save the world, or end it, so long as you're serious about it.

INTJ here, I'm turbulent as fuck and somehow during the years I got it in my head to believe that finding someone I can love and who loves me back is going to calm me. Needless to say stuff hasn't been going my way despite me being fairly normal, but hey I'm good at making plans!
One day I'll grow a pair I guess.
Any advice is well-accepted
>>
>>18184925
High five. I've seen some INTJ girls on here.

>>18184926
But that's dumb. Go to a book club, take history/philosophy classes, go to politics debates, take classes about political science. Go meet people who are interested in those things, whether their gender is.
Also - friendship and affection matter more than "we share interests and talk about stuff that interests me".
I have few interests in common with my ESFx friends but they're pleasant to be around and fun anyway, even if they're not intellectually stimulating. And they love me crazy amounts.
>>
>>18184936
>But that's dumb. Go to a book club, take history/philosophy classes, go to politics debates, take classes about political science. Go meet people who are interested in those things, whether their gender is.
I have been. But male/female friendships always go down that path of "would I date you". I've lost many male friends to it, which is why I want female ones-and I've never found those.
>>
>>18184935
Advice: Don't expect anyone to make you a better person. Be a better person by yourself, that way you'll solve your problem AND not have the feeling of owing someone a thing, which may lead to oneitis and heartbreak.
>>
>>18184941
Then you're getting the wrong kind of friendships.
>>
>>18184944
Well how does one find "the right kind"?
I'm pretty attractive, so most of my male friends seem to get crushes on me, which tends to ruin the friendship.

And I've never met women into philosophy/history/politics that weren't into it from an SJW standpoint.
>>
>>18184944
>Then you're getting the wrong kind of friendships.
I was going to write a more elaborate answer, but basically this.

I've been friends with guys since I was born because my hobbies are male dominated and I really don't enjoy most Female-Female friendship dynamics.
I rarely if ever had an issue with guys falling for me, even if I'm pretty.
>>
>>18184942
I've heard that before and while I agree it doesn't get better. It just doesn't. Whenever something happens I stop being calm and cool, which is how I'd want to be.
I don't think a person will act and make me better, it's more like a passive help kinda thing. I don't want someone to fix me, I want to fix myself, but I haven't been able to and I lack motivation more than anything else. Perhaps love is going to give me energy, that's what I mean.
>>
>>18184950
>>18184944
Look guys, I've accepted that I'll kill myself by 30. You don't need to rub it in about how you've all succeeded at friendships, relationships, life in general.

>>
>>18184954
To me, it seems like you just want people to circlejerk with - you keep saying you want to be friends with people who share your interests and your opinions.
Why not be friends with people who aren't into what you like but are funny and nice to be around? Why not trying to expand your interests and go out of your comfort zone? Why not be friends with people who don't agree with you? It seems like you're a bit self-centered.

Because I find them boring af. I've done that. I did it all through high school and basically hid all of who I was so I'd fit in.
>Why not trying to expand your interests and go out of your comfort zone?
Like what?
>/Why not be friends with people who don't agree with you?
On what? I actually do have several friends I disagree with politically, or at least I have in the past.

I lost contact with most of my friends when I moved to go to university, as the only thing that really bound us was the constant contact. Now I have no one.
>>
>>18184982
>Why not be friends with people who don't agree with you?
There's a big difference between disagreeing on something, and having widely different interests.

30 is just that point. The point of no return. I don't know why it's such a big deal, but men have it too- you become a wizard at 30, for example.

I have some goals, I want to be a museum curator for example-and I'm well on the way to reaching that goal, for a 20 year old.

However, all these goals are kind of stale when you are so isolated from humanity. No boyfriend, no friends, family that doesn't like me etc.
>>
>>18185003
10 years are enough time to become a curator, getting friends and a boyfriend, having a kid and starting your own family and being reasonably successful.

So what? You're gonna kill yourself even if it goes okay? Waste.
>>
>>18185010
That's the thing, it's probably not going to go okay because I can't get out of this funk. I may as well give up-by 30 my parents will be dead and no one will miss me.
>>
>>18184997
I'm 6 months into the role and I've been getting comments from a fair amount of people that I've picked up the work much faster than anticipated.

I'm expected to stay in my role for 1-2 years before I can progress up the ladder. I'm getting bored out of my mind doing the more peripheral work while my older coworkers get to do much more strategic thinking. I want to set the direction not follow the leader.

>>18184993
> I did it all through high school and basically hid all of who I was so I'd fit in.
But there's no need to?
My friends know I'm a nerd, I have weird hobbies and odd political views. And they don't give a shit. One of my best friends LOVES bags and shoes and I buy the same pair of shoes every 9 months because the pair I own gets worn out.
Even if we don't have much in common, sitting around and chatting about life and laughing about the odd things that happen to us is still great. We don't need to debate about mid-1900 american novelists, philosophy or politics to be friends.

>Like what?
Like literally whatever? A sport, a cooking class, a language class. Learn a skill. Join a class about something artistic you've always wanted to learn about. Go to ballet, to the theatre.

>>18185015
Stop whining.

You're just a kid, do you realize that?

Okay, you have trouble getting in a meaningful relationship with people because you have standards - whatever.

Everyone has standards, yours are just kind of high. You know your options, either you keep looking or you just lower'em (just don't be stupid and hang around Chads forever).

You sound like you are doing the right thing. You're working towards your goal, you actually care about your grammar, you realize what's wrong with you and it's actually not that big of a deal. Why are you worried? Why does that deserve suicide on the long run if it's probably going to stop being a problem in the next 3 years?

Stop putting yourself as that adjacent human bean towards people, try to make yourself more relatable. I know some people just suck, only know 2 topics which they spend their lives talking about and act like 9 year olds. You're not changing that, but you can make use of that.

Also, stop Linkin Parking me.
>>
>>18185033
>Even if we don't have much in common, sitting around and chatting about life and laughing about the odd things that happen to us is still great

I just can't do that. I really can't. I know it's me, I know I'm weird and fucked and unfit for society, but I can't just laugh and chat about stuff that has no meaning.

Like I said to the others, there's no need to rub it in my face that you're so much better at life than I am. I know I suck-hence the suicide.

I get a lot of your angst. I'm a guy about to turn 25 in a few months, I've only had one absurdly unhealthy relationship really, and the idea of settling down with kids is becoming a sort of distant dream. Which in turn kills a lot of my motivation, since it's pretty cheap living single.

I do think you should consider the merits life has though. While it's not my goal, I'm starting to realize even living a single life isn't complete shit and if I give up that just turns whatever chance I do have into a 0. It's not like all doors close at 30, it's an entirely arbitrary marker folks have settled on just because that's when peoples goals often shift.
>>
>>18185039
I've tried and I give up. God, can't you intrepid extroverts accept that yes, you're soooo functional and happy but other people aren't and they're entitled to that and don't need your happiness and functionality rubbed in their faces.
>>
>>18185056
God, you're a whiny kid.

It's not about being introverted or extroverted.
You're just annoying. You sit there and complain - "wee wee, nobody loves me!! I'll be alone forever because I'm so special!!".
The fact that people talk to you just because you're cute, and those who don't want to get in your pants just don't bother should be enough to understand that you need to change something about yourself and stop your little snowflake attitude.

>>18185033

As for the rest of you trying to make her a positive go getter, realise that for some people that kind of faking it in friendships is more draining than being lonely. I know for extroverts its hard to believe, but that's the truth-being around people I have nothing in common with is just as miserable as being lonely, but it's also exhausting to boot.
>>
>>18185066
Social inadequacy =/= introversion.

Anyway, if you don't actually want to be friends with people, don't fucking complain that you aren't?
>>
>>18185056
I'm not rubbing it in your face sweetie. As I said, I have social problems of my own, I know it sucks.

But my point is: We are a minority, with all our traits and our semi-shitty personality. We cannot change people around us, so we have to fit in.

Good thing is that these differences have their uses.
The average normie is usually fascinated with our intellect, so indulge them to some commanding voice in group activities and there you go: You have a lot of drones doing work for you just because they think you talk pretty.

I do that a lot in manual group activities in uni. Good shit.
>>
>>18184919
Good idea. I guess that's all we can do.
>>
>>18185062
I don't have a snowflake attitude. Just a defeatist one. I don't think I'm special, at least, not in any positive way-just in a deeply dysfunctional one. But believe me, I have tried doing other things, and they just bore me and I don't find it fulfilling at all.

People do bother, sometimes. But as I said I find people boring, and I get that it makes me an arrogant bitch but I can't help it. But I'm shy and don't project an approachable attitude anymore.
>>
>>18185070
I'm not the one complaining. I was just showing solidarity. I don't care anymore.

I want friends like me, not friends that I either have to constantly tell them that I'm not interested in them (boys) or that I have to fake interest in or only talk about things I find limited.

If that's all that friendship is, then I guess no, I don't want it.
>>
>>18185066
I understand it's exhausting.

Problem solving requires effort.

You don't need to fake it, just need to be a little open minded.

Or find people with common interests elsewhere.

ENFJ - Original The Character

The more you think about it, the less most things have even subjective meaning. If you like to be thorough, you naturally want to be able to articulate the greater good you're fighting for if you are indeed doing so.

When you do, you discover that the concept itself is riddled with holes and contradictions, yet you're still utterly compelled to strive for it.

At that point it's very hard to conjure up the charm and warmth you're used to be capable of so easily, but you're still the same idealistically altruistic prick on the inside.

There's a reason I'm drinking on a weeknight.

INFP here

I feel deeply disillusioned with my life. I've grown to dislike everyone around me at my university, and I'm going through something akin to a quarter-life crisis (though I'm 20).

I hate where I live and where I go to university. I want to move away and start again. But that's unlikely.

I feel as though I've wasted my teenage years. I just want to be relaxed and happy around a group of people I care about, in a place I care about. But I'm not even sure if that's what I want. I just feel so confused and trapped.

Sehnsucht.
>>
>>18185087
As my feel-y friend always says - it is very easy to love people who are just the same as you, but love is accepting the things you don't understand.

You don't want friends, you want mirrors. You don't want to know people, you want for others to be the same as you so you can easily fit in without putting any effort.
I hope you grow out of it and you get happier.
>>
>>18185087

I won't get interested in you as anything but a friend because I probably live a thousand kilometers away from you.

You do it out of need and necessity but after a while, it becomes hell the mere thought of having to fake interest and act as if there is the tiniest bridge that can connect you to the others. It gets so mentally and physically draining you actually get depressed which in turn probably fuels the cycle.
>>
I don't get it-what are you all doing jumping down that INTP girl's throat? She seems to be aware it's her fault and not think she's better than people, and you're all being rather patronising and/or rude about it. I'm an INTP guy, and somewhat similar to her (although I think women tend to crave friendship more than men-In terms of relationships I think it's the other way around). She's right, you can't help finding a lot of conversations boring and unfulfilling- after most outings with friends I find myself wishing I'd stayed in bed. It's only with a few select friends that I actually enjoy my time.

Prolonged exposure to things and ways of interaction I don't like (being "open minded" in other words) doesn't really help either-it just feels like a chore. Yes, I'm fucked, she probably is too. But it's nigh on impossible to change your entire personality to make you fit with the more common personality types and make you happy. It's just the way we are.

You're annoying too, so you can't really understand.

I feel like I'd die if I didn't try again and again knowing full well most likely things will go the wrong way.
I don't have motivation, it's just fear of what would happen to my person if I stopped trying which propels me to go out and fail once again. It's failure after failure after failure, but that's kinda my fault because I want something hard to get.

Sorry for starting the whiny argument.

As I said before, i'm in no way an extrovert. I have very few friends (mostly acquaintances), am shy AF and find it hard to meet people with common interests.

But as I said, you just can't change people around you, so as far as it is possible, try to roll with it. You will meet people that think alike and that you can relate to, it's just that with the current personality and traits you narrow down the amount of people that fit your likeness.

Just try to be sociable, because once this/these persons come along, you'll still have to be sociable enough to befriend them.

People around me are also extremely shallow. My country's culture and society is basically led by the media and by what the "cool kids" do. It sucks because it fucks up the prospect of having specific groups of people with some sets of personality, such as mine. But I have to roll with it.

My offer stands. If you want to talk to someone, i'll try my best to be a good friend for as long as you like. Always good to meet someone new.

I am sorry for your predicament, I feel you.

I gotta ask though, do you realize how horrible it is to say someone is shallow? Try to step out of yourself for a little and bear with me.
That someone who you say is shallow is as much alive as you are, he has similar perceptions, he doesn't think that much about himself, probably, but he is conscious.
He's conscious, he feels and sees and thinks and hears as much as me and you do. How cruel is it to say someone is shallow? Their life is shallow compared to yours or mine? Do you think that what they do and think has less value?
Someone thinks I'm shallow, I'm sure of that, and they think their life is better or has more depht than mine, that would mean discarding the entirety of what I perceive and do.
I very much wouldn't like hearing someone say that about me

So not responding to what an environment bombards you with is better?

Why would it be better? On what grounds do you think your view is better than theirs?
How about this, they are influenced positively (ie they agree) by what the environment they are in tells them to do, are you sure you are not influenced negatively? Are you sure you are not influenced at all?

You are obviously going to say yes, so why would life detached from what surrounds be better? Why do you think it would have more depht?
I just struggle to see any objective authority, whose words are truth, that is able to define which person's thoughts have more value.
I ain't gonna take your word for it, or mine, or anybody's, because on the subject of personality we are so much up our ass I can't trust us.
>>
>>18185224
No one is right, no one is wrong.

Whatever it is you believe is right, there are people somewhere that agree and people somewhere that disagree.

Since human beings are led by their social nature, we have estabilished means to cope with those discrepancies in mindsets and beliefs, one of them being a moral etiquette and a search for qualification through individuality, which favors our survival amidst our own.

I'm no guru, no scientist. All I have in my favor is that for many years I have observed people from all kinds of perspectives and beliefs, not guided by prejudice or opinions. To this day I very often try to put myself in people's places to try and understand them better, even if they disagree with me and might put me in a losing position somehow.

But I fail to understand people who often know what is right and wrong by our moral etiquette and human standards of existence, and still try to proliferate their ways without giving themselves the benefit of doubt. They just blindly follow whatever strikes them fancy with no regards for morality and others around them, and they expect to be understood.

No.

But I agree. Maybe this is also my mindset, my bias on the subject. After all, aren't we all taught by our environment? But even if that is the case, I'd rather exercise my individuality and intellect by being analytical and also critical of my surroundings and the people in them, since I find that useful for my day to day existence and well being. Given that I am alive and well and most people I know under the circumstances mentioned are fucked and have their life expectancy/quality greatly reduced, I think I am right.

The idea isn't to do the test and accept the result, and forge your personality over it.

INTJ.

The top part is right and it hurts even thinking about it. Entry level job at 27, no drink, drugs, single? mad nerd with below average social skills.

Bro is making mad cash and is leaving home soon. He is my absolute best friend and has been there with my mom and dad whenever i needed them. I love him and my family so much, we all get on so well and only thing stopping me from going mental.

I wish I was better so I could make them proud.

I've taken multiple different versions of the test over the past 6 years and have gotten INTJ every single time. I don't even know if I would call this a personality test, it just shows you how you think and process information.

>>
>>18186640
I'm still trying to understand it myself. I've talked to a ton of people, both irl and online, and they all agree that this is just one of those special relationships. The two get each other and the intj can protect and lead the infp while the infp tends to the unseen emotional side of the intj.
I don't study this shit since it's just for fun, but people with those traits tend to do well together.

The test is based on traits you perceive yourself to have that are sorted into common groupings of said traits. Zodiac is literally arbitrary based on when you were born. I never understand the comparison.

Which tends to be so disconnected from the person, you might as well pull random shit out of your ass, unless they happen to have enough background in psychology to know what they are doing. The average person absolutely blows at introspection and self reflection.

INFP here, decently good at math and logic. I'm doing a bachelor of computer science right now. If you find a group of friends that really support you, then INFP is not that bad.
>>
>>18187294
Just like it's pretty normal to wonder about how the universe or life on earth came to be, the result you get from wondering about the stuff is rarely worth too much unless you already have some knowledge about the things. Not the best example of course.

>>18187295
Unless you're a total sperg or extremely extroverted, there are fine variations which are not easy to judge from your own perspective.

What? Well you admit it's not a good example but the way you think isn't something mysterious and unknowable, it's what you experience every day. You don't need to study psychology to think about it and notice things about it.
>>
INTP here. Overthink the shit out of absolutely everything, no matter how trivial. I'll sit up all night just thinking about how I should talk to a girl I like over text. Feel like a fucking retard when I'm around other smart people, but feel like Einstein around any other normal person. Working on a bachelors in Physics
>>
>>18187320
>You don't need to study psychology to think about it and notice things about it.
Sure, just you are very, VERY likely to come to false conclusions and ideas. Also notice the things that don't matter while overlooking the things that do. You can make an encyclopedia of the known brain biases and probably another from the ones we don't even know yet. Hell, even knowing the brain biases doesn't guarantee that you don't fall for them.
>>
>>18187288
>unless they happen to have enough background in psychology to know what they are doing
You think you need a background in psychology to analyze your traits and habits? You literally just need an ounce of self-awareness and you're good.
>>
>>18187237
Thanks for bringing up ex's you piece of shit. We were both INTJ and INFP as well
>>
>>18187336
You're likely to come to false conclusions about things, but you're not likely to be THAT far off either. Most people have some idea of whether they prefer going out or staying inside and reading a book, and MBTI questions usually aren't asking anything much deeper than that.

>but you're not likely to be THAT far off either
Obviously it's very unlikely to get a completely different result than you are just the result you'll get will still be basically your limited self image (Hey, I guess a non artist drawing a self portrait works as a better example) and you'll get a similar although slightly more vague picture with astrology too.

>MBTI questions usually aren't asking anything much deeper than that
Most are a bit more complex. Take the "initiative in conversations" thing which is only worth something if you lean very strongly to one extreme.

Are you implying all animal people would want kids? Animals are way easier to take care of than kids. Raising a child entails a lot more than looking after a retard.
>>
>>18187390
Depends where you are on the P/J spectrum I expect - and it sounds like you're far closer to the P side than those others, and picking up the problem of not have sufficient doubts about the ability for humans to accurately cast a judgement/act overly cocksure.

But, as an INTP I'm biased. "Join the masterrace", maybe.
>>
I am INTJ and for the most part i don't like other INTJ people

some act very autistic sherlock holmes

>you are either bullshiting or just retarded
How would that make me retarded? I married for practical reasons, not because we want kids. I'm responsible enough to know that now would not be a good time to have them. Maybe if I'm in a different place mentally, I'll adopt later on.

INFJ

this is like the 3rd time ive taken this test and ive gotten different results each time.
i dont know how or why i just answer how i feel i should.
to me all of the questions seems very situational and dependent on the person that the situation is being acted upon.
this is stupid yo.

Why are INTPs such narcissists?
>>
>>18187862
>Why are INTPs such narcissists?
because the world rejects us and so we are stuck in the eternal dilemma of whether we are fucking stupid or too smort, it's very tricky because either option is equally susceptible to bias
>>
This test is full of shit because it's not really accurate at all. I do this once in a while because it's fun and I always get a different type each time. My conclusion is that this is a more emotional based test, because its what you feel in the moment that will be your type.

This time I got ESTJ-A.
>>
>>18187914
The whole point is to do it once. Do it more than once and you will subconsciously change your answers based on your predetermined expectations.
>>
>>18185780
>Not that you could
Is he right? I would like to change
>>
>>18187924

If you do it once then you should have the exact same result the next time you doing it. Otherwise it isn't accurate at all.It's nonsens. But you don't because it reflecting what you feel in the moment when you doing the test. if you for an example feel more blue then you will get a personal type that's somewhat more reserved and vice versa if you're more outgoing and happy.
>>
>>18187848
alright
then ill do it one last time trying not to think about it and thatll be the true answer.
here we go.

architect.
really threw all of the overthinking of the situation out the window
so i guess this is my true personality?
also did it twice just to be sure.
>>
>>18187964

No it isn't your true personality. The problem with this kind of test is that it's categorise 16 personality when in reality its more fluid. If you read every each personality you will more or less say that's every typ is you. Also is very based on what you feel when doing the test.

So no, 16 personalities are not accurate at all and I wouldn't use it to say that I'm this type or whatever.
>>
>>18187424
>some are cool who are just very focused and very goal oriented and like to put it to good use and not brag about it like their some kind of super human

I'd say I more identify with this, autistically proclaiming my goals can often become my downfall, so I tend to steer away from that

29 year old male ISTP here. Here is some advice for all my younger brethren.

Find a place to be social. By this I mean a specific place you can go where you can always see the same group of people and meet the occasional new ones. Despite your urges to be alone you do need some social interaction and companionship to keep balanced and this gets harder and harder the older you get. I had a cafe I went to and got to know the owners. Became friends with them and I would just go and visit for a while once a week. I slowly started getting to know the other regulars and eventually became friends with them as well. Frankly we are shit at meeting new people and this is the best way to do it since you can join in on the group and observe instead of being forced into a 1 on 1 with a stranger which I am sure is something you don't much enjoy. A smaller group of 3-5 people is the sweet spot.

As for working try to keep your options open. Even things you really enjoy at first you may get bored of down the road. I love food and cooking so I went to culinary school and became a chef but the fact that I HAVE to do it day in and day out is just draining the enjoyment from me. One time in between cooking jobs I did a brief stint of road building for a logging company and that change was great. You will probably enjoy any job where you get to work with your hands and are not just repeating the same task every day.

If you don't already have one take up an art or craft. I have been wood carving for half a year now and my life and mindset have both improved. We love tools so find something that will let you use them.

Don't expect people to be logical. The majority of them just aren't any good at it. You will also probably hurt these peoples feeling without being aware of it.

Meditate. Your mind is full of conflicting shit and useless information that you pick up throughout the day. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5GSeWdjyr1c

As for romance I am clueless so you are on your own.
>>
>>18187944
>>18188047
If your mood causes that much of a change then you are obviously borderline in the aspects that swing back and forth. This is a spectrum not an absolute.
>>
>>18187974
The problem is that while MBTI is often presented as a personality test, it isn't, really. Your MBTI type describes how your brain perceives and processes information, not your personality.

The personality descriptions given with each type are stereotypes. These may describe common trends among people with the same type, but you shouldn't take them too seriously.

That said, I didn't notice the hotlinks. Who does that anyways? Lazy writers. Whatever. It is well cited, not that I cared to begin with. The test is about as deep and complex as one of those paper fortune tellers we used to make as kids. Ours might have been a bit more accurate. Everyone is a fag at heart.
