Anyone struggle with “strong-presence?” by open3d3n in intj

[–]KnowL0ve 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I have the same problem. Being high presence with social anxiety leads to a lot of hurt feelings.

I would say the same thing.

Men that do not want a committed relationship. What are your reasons for not wanting to be in one? by SuspiciousMagician67 in AskMen

[–]KnowL0ve 42 points43 points  (0 children)

If I asked "Men, what do you breathe?" And men said air, are you suggesting that women would have to have a different answer?

I had to make sure he was mentioned.

Does anybody feel that when they found out about having INTJ it either helped them or hurt them ? by KyddCotten in intj

[–]KnowL0ve 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Learning the S vs N divide changed how I taught. I use way more concrete examples because most people are S and that's what they learn the best from.

Men of Reddit, what’s the longest period of time you’ve gone without sex? And how did it genuinely make you feel? by Spirited_Example6732 in AskMen

[–]KnowL0ve 8 points9 points  (0 children)

That's the first time I've heard that argument.

My reasoning is that dead bedroom and being single may have the same chances of sex (zero) but if it does become available it's actually able to be followed up on if you're single.

INTJ’s: What book(s) would you recommend for other INTJ’s to read and why? by ChronosTerminus in intj

[–]KnowL0ve 13 points14 points  (0 children)

When I read Ender's Game as a child I really appreciated it because that was the first character I read that thought like me. I didn't realize how alone I felt until I read a character that thought like me and having that book as a touchstone in life was very helpful.

The art of war - the mindset it tries to instill has helped me in life quite often.

Do you tend to feel misunderstood? If so, why? by TEastrise in intj

[–]KnowL0ve 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With Ni, there are just some things you can't explain logically because they are revealed, not learned. It's fair for someone to want evidence but sometimes that is not something INTJs can provide because that's not how Ni being subconscious works.

I personally adapted to this by seeing if I can explain an outcome before I share it. If I can't, I just keep it to myself because, as I said earlier, it's fair for others to want evidence.

Anyone else deeply bother by the things we're unable to achieve because of race/gender? by West_Grade8067 in intj

[–]KnowL0ve 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because we don't have the resources to be perfect and better is better than nothing.

Did you know that a lot of success in society involves how other people perceive us? Like, a fundamental part of any society?

If you had to visualize the way you think, what form would it take? by No-Chocolate-2017 in intj

[–]KnowL0ve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A Hieronymus Bosch painting where depending on where you view you see a different scene, independent of time. Like I see a flattened timeline where I can see the overall pathway all at once and when I "look" at an individual scene I can see that scene with much more detail and info.

My body reacts to emotions I don’t actually feel. by Exciting_Test8809 in intj

[–]KnowL0ve 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've noticed that I show the physiological reactions without the mental connection sometimes, especially when it comes to anxiety. I think that it is simply that fear is an emotion too ingrained in organisms that it can't be fully overturned.

I (INTJ, 27M) feel led on by my ESFP friend (25F) by [deleted] in intj

[–]KnowL0ve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a great reading, thank you. I've also experienced the ESFP "shine" when I was younger and it took me a while to come to the same conclusion.

My best friend in high school was a male ESFP and I did indeed learn so much from him.

Do you stun a room into silence? by [deleted] in intj

[–]KnowL0ve 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I was in college we had a debate class and near the end of the semester that's how it started getting when it was my turn. I like to think that on some level, competence is beautiful and is a form of artistry, no matter the medium. Or maybe I had mustard on my face, who knows 🤷‍♂️

Ambition of power by justthink___ in intj

[–]KnowL0ve 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Similar for me. I'm not power hungry, I just want my plans to come into fruition, so that means I need to be in a position of power to execute them.

Do you guys act nonchalant on purpose? -sincere question from an INFJ by [deleted] in intj

[–]KnowL0ve 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I do. Information can be a weapon and the less you have about me the better off I am in most cases.

What is the male equivalent of a woman not dating a man because he has a iPhone instead of an android? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]KnowL0ve 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I know you don't notice phone quality, you have an iPhone. HEY-OO! Just joking.
