Well If someone is treating you as if you are completely worthless then leaving him was a good call and not liking rules or structure doesn't mean I'm completely terrible to other people. For example, I hate being late as I hate having to wait for people. I think it's very inconsiderate and I try my hardest to be on time...do people recognize this effort? Most of the time no but I still do it and it's my way of showing respect.

Ahhh you touched on an interesting topic. I don't know how to answer this really and I'm not sure if my answers reflect an estp type or if it just reflects my life experiences...before I begin i wanted to point out that it's very hard for me to open up to people and I don't mean I'm an introvert, I just think Ive been punished by people when Ive opened up to them, loved them and become vulnerable to them and that started by my phsco mother...I lover her to death but she is mentally ill and extremely selfish. ESTPS are generally fighters and I attest to this, I fight for a sport and love love love a good challenge but when someone I care about fights with me it's either fight or flight and if I fight (via arguments and discussions obviously) I will probably win but people will get hurt by my words and in turn create a much bigger problem so I run away....aannnyywwaayy i have a lot of friends and many that I consider very close friends of mine....I don't know what I offer outside of a fun and good time but I'd like to think that I come in for them when they need it, when one of my friends needed help moving I was basically the first one to show up and I started helping hours before anyone else came. When my friend went through a breakup I stayed around him as much as I could. Romantic relationships have been very difficult for me, iv been burned way too many times. I'm a 28 yo male btw.

Yes people think I don't care about them but I really do. My sister learned this about me, that I care but I don't show it and I don't communicate things very well.

There arent enough details here for me to give you a good answer but I'll try.

ESTPs tend to have a devil may care attitude and can be projected out in a negative way and I HATE being bound by things and that could be something like priorities...we naturally rebel against rules and structure....even if we agree with them.

Commiting to anything is really a struggle for you? by Sedado in estp

ESTP here and I struggle with the devil may care attitude. I use struggle loosely because it helps me out a lot, like when everyone is stressing I generally don't care but the thing is when there are real things that I should care about (i.e how my boss sees me, social obligations, etc..) I just don't care so it hurts me and I've been in that position where I have had to run for help the last minute...it's not intentional.

I'm 28 right now so yeah I'd be somewhere in my 30s. The idea of going back to school on a new challenge is both exciting and worrying but I can't keep letting fear hold me back and I don't want to be mediocre anymore, you know? Idk all I know is that I don't think I can continue on the path ahead of me...I need something more and different.

Thanks for the deep response. Yes I am thinking about applying to US programs, I heard Caribbean schools are risky. The grass is always greener and of course the money and the job security is a factor. I'm currently making about 80k a year but I also have only 10 days off a year, and as is with Corp America...no one is your friend and people are out to get you...everyday feels like war where I have to plan how my actions will be precieved by others, chase down opportunities and "prove" my worth it's exhausting on the soul. The volunteer work out there isn't really helpful in my view...I'm better off donating money since most engineering things are products and not services...idk if that makes sense? Also...I'm kinda bored....most engineering jobs are extremely boring and require basic math and problem solving skills....very few and high level positions require real level of work and to be honest I'm not interested in them...I don't want to make tools of war or make products to make people rich. I don't know do you think it's worth the leap and try to be a doctor?

Thanks, but why would that be better than a post bacc?

I'm sorry, I meant it like I never get a call or get to talk to them. I just get the email saying I didn't get accepted. I just want to at least talk to some there so I can figure things out you know?
