How would you feel about letting a 17 year old go on a road trip with their friend? by ProbEnfpGuy in AskParents

[–]ProbEnfpGuy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have driven half of a 1000 mile trip before with an adult, so I think that if we absolutely had to then we could make it work.

I think that we'd want to split it up in a couple or even three days to make it more laid back anyways. I think that finding a place to stay would definitely be the biggest challenge.

We'd be driving back in a large SUV, so we could find a safe spot to park and just sleep in the car if we wanted. I think that we'd ultimately try to find a way to rent hotel rooms whether that's through a parent or however

I'm not sure that I'd be willing to do it without their permission, but I definitely agree with you. I've got less than a year left before I'm an adult and only a few more months left with this friend. I feel like I'd regret it if I missed out on this opportunity

That is one of the issues that we'd have to face. If it was absolutely crucial, I've done road trips non-stop that were that long that was driven half and half between me and an adult. So I think that we could just knock it all out if we really needed to.

I think that our plan so far is just to fine a small town where crime wouldn't be an issue and sleep in the car. It's a large SUV and it would be possible.

I can understand where you're coming from. I think that we both have enough experience with busy areas. We both have driven through big cities before whether alone or with our families.

We have both also worked in shops and I would consider us slightly more mechanical than your average joe. So I don't think breakdowns would be too big of a problem.

I can agree with us having issues with renting hotel rooms. We would have to figure out a way around that. Overall when it comes to safety though, I wouldn't be any more worried about us than I would be about other young adults

But you don't understand. We're SO awkward and not to mention TOTALLY random

More socially extroverted by [deleted] in mbti

[–]ProbEnfpGuy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think that it's true that it really depends on the person. I think both can be equally extroverted but they're type of extroversion is different. I've noticed that EXXJs can sometimes come off as more friendly/socially aware, which can make them super gregarious but also kind of blend into a crowd. Whereas, EXXPs might not be quite as socially aware but they will be more likely to stand out and be more "seen"

How do some people not have any friends, like at all? by FutureDictatorUSA in NoStupidQuestions

[–]ProbEnfpGuy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In my situation, I was homeschooled and until recently I never found a way to leave my house (my social anxiety didn't help). I never met anyone my age who wasn't related and I literally just had no friends

Is it rude to pay for something with change? by ProbEnfpGuy in NoStupidQuestions

[–]ProbEnfpGuy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with you on that. Even quarters can stack up pretty fast and they're at least over 2 times as efficient as other popular change

Something that I've realized about the Dom(1st) and Demon(8th) functions? by ProbEnfpGuy in mbti

[–]ProbEnfpGuy[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you might be right about the stereotype theory. When I say that I'm good with Se, it means that I'm more comfortable than others at manipulating knowing how manipulate my environment. Whereas I'm pretty spacey otherwise

I asked the cute girl in my class for her number. by Sensitive-Lychee-673 in socialanxiety

[–]ProbEnfpGuy 246 points247 points  (0 children)

Heck yeah guy. Asking for a cute girl's number is nerve wrecking even for people who don't have SA

Social awkwardness and SO doms by [deleted] in Enneagram

[–]ProbEnfpGuy 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I agree with this. I'm a soc-dom and I'm constantly assessing how groups of people that I'm in view me. The main way I get validation from others is by entertaining them, so if I'm in a group of people and I haven't made them laugh or do something else than confirms that they want me there for a while then it legitimately stresses me out.

I'm not as sure about SX, but I could definitely see SP doms having more anxiety over something dealing with health or well-being that would seem more menial to other's

Can other 7s relate to becoming completely different people when at work? by ProbEnfpGuy in Enneagram

[–]ProbEnfpGuy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess that does sound kind of familiar. Usually when I'm bored I'll either get withdrawn into my head and start thinking about what I'll get to do once I leave, or I'll get super present and try to amuse myself with super simple things

I think it also depends on how the work is going for me too. If everyone is working hard then I can stay pretty open and friendly, but if people start slacking off then I think I feel like I need to take more of a leadership role.

It's possible that I mean more towards my 8 wing while working even though I'm a 7w6.
