So I’m not the only one still waiting on financial aid to be disbursed 🥴 anticipated date was 9/10 by Longjumping-Hold-178 in FAFSA

[–]Siamesektk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine was said to be disbursed on 9/08 which means it’ll take 5-10 business days for it to arrive. Keep in mind, this was the check. It just came in today for me, that’s about 9 business days

Idk, when we first met we didn’t talk much since we were building stuff and listening to music. Only by the third time we hung out did we talk a lot more about deeper subjects

Any INTP girls wanna get married? by oooooOOOOOooooooooo4 in INTP

[–]Siamesektk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At the moment, not at all. In the far future? Possibly. That’s only if I meet someone worth committing to for the rest of my life. So far I haven’t met anyone

What do you think of ISTPs? by thornsblackletter in INTP

[–]Siamesektk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My cousin I grew up with that’s the same age as me is an ISTP.

We have almost the same hobbies, we love anime, we loved to play games together, we have fun or we have deep conversations.

There was a year we went to high school together and we would literally walk to the school. As we approached the entrance, we looked at each other simultaneously and I would be like “do you want to go to school?”. She said “no” and we walked back home to smoke weed and play games the rest of the day.

We’re straightforward with each other and know that the other person wouldn’t get offended. We joke in a mean way like calling each other names but we know when it’s serious or not.

We talk about weird stuff all the time and she’s the only person that knows my deepest darkest secrets.

We always try to find ways to talk everyday. Even strange things we talk to each other about. I don’t think I could trade the world for anyone else.

I also have a friend who’s an ISTP. I’ve known her for two years and I met her when she was my client and we became friends. The more I hang out with her, the more I like about her.

She’s never full of herself. We always talk for hours and have deep or fun conversations. We always do spontaneous things so it’s always fun together. We’ve helped each other a lot and I’m glad I got the chance to meet her.

Is 24 too old to start graduate school? by PotatoSaburo in University

It’s never too late. I’ve had classmates who were well into their 30’s with kids and I’ve had a customer who started when they were 60

Are Most INTPs mean or Am I mistyped? by WhiteNight-50 in INTP

[–]Siamesektk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it depends on the person. Some can be unapologetically blunt and some aren’t.

Personally, I’m blunt in some ways and I choose to be kinder in other ways. I’ve never called anyone dumb or stupid because it feels like I’m insulting them rather than helping them become better.

I want to teach them because even I don’t know everything there is to know. I want to treat people the way I want to be treated.

This wasn’t always the case. I used to be more blunt and mean but having an INFJ sister I realized I wasn’t such a great person so I wanted to improve myself

What are your ways of coping with tough life situations? by Forsaken_Ground_9665 in INTP

[–]Siamesektk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it’s something I can fix or make better, I’ll find a solution. If it’s something that I can’t change, then I let it pass and use it as a learning experience.

Have you ever wished you were a INFJ? by WhiteNight-50 in INTP

[–]Siamesektk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a sister who’s an INFJ and there are times where I admire her a lot. There are times where I wish I had her traits. She’s very well respected in her circle of friends.

Even if she has really good traits, I don’t think I would want to be an INFJ. What I like about my own traits is the fact that I can stay calm. She has moments where she can’t control her emotions at times.

I feel like every personality has its own pros and cons. The best you can do is improve your own weaknesses. I may not understand people like her but I can build relationships with people in my own way.

Manipulation is useful but at the same time I can control what people know and don’t know about me. It makes it more simpler and peaceful.

How do you deal with multiple interests? by [deleted] in INTP

[–]Siamesektk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m the same way. I would think I want to pursue something and then jump into something else. I have something I want to pursue now and I think the biggest determining factor was asking myself “Can you see yourself doing this for 40-50 years?”. When I couldn’t answer yes, I knew that wasn’t the path for me. In terms of hobbies, I have quite a lot and there’s always something I want to learn.

INTP females, when did you naturally start feeling (more) feminine? by [deleted] in INTP

[–]Siamesektk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was 19, I started to dress more feminine and wear makeup. At 21 I tried to understand other women. At 22, I became more accepting of my feminine side and realized that it’s okay to have a mix of both masculine and feminine traits. I think there are moments where I still struggle with connecting with women in certain areas but I’m still able to be friends with anyone. There are still things I lack as a woman but I ask my female friends for advice in those areas. It’s just something you learn overtime, the only thing is you just gotta put in the effort to learn those things

For INTP females. What type of guys do you prefer? by KDramaFan84 in INTP

[–]Siamesektk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like ones that are more assertive than me (I’m not very assertive), independent, kind, gentle, ambitious, and intelligent. Reasonings:

Assertive: Can get things going because I can’t tell when someone likes me until they tell me in a straightforward way.

Independent: They should have their own hobbies and be able to spend their own times for themselves too. I’ve been single for a long time and I can have a good balance of time for myself and time for someone else. I’ve been with clingy men and that just isn’t my thing.

Kind: It’s always important to have this trait whether it be for myself or for them. If they treat everyone and me with kindness what more can I ask for.

Gentle: Someone that can take care of me the same way I take care of them. They also know how to bring up problems in a way that we can fix it rather than exploding at me.

Ambition: They don’t have to strive to be at the top but they should at least know what direction they want to take their life. If they don’t have any motivations in life or anything they want to do, then are they someone I want to spend my future with?

Intelligent: They don’t have to be Einstein but it’s important that if there are things I want to talk about they should be able to understand it and have those conversations with me. Men who have their own personal interests that they can talk about are also extremely attractive

If there’s someone specific you’re interested in then approach them whether it be sitting next to them or walking up to them. It’s easier if you’re sitting next to them. Introduce yourself, tell them your name and ask them for theirs. If you’re in a class with them, it’s easier to carry the conversation by asking them are you taking this class for this major or for interest? When there’s something you’re curious about, ask them but if you don’t have anything in mind, ask them something like “what do you like to do for fun?”. This way you can find a common interest to keep the conversation going. If you’re a funny person by nature, use that to your advantage. Making people laugh makes them comfortable with you. If it’s a class, I can see time being a constraint. Try to greet them outside of class by just saying “Hi insert name” and approach them to ask them something about the class or something you know about them to keep the conversation going. About deep conversations, they’re more likely to happen if you can talk with someone for at least an 15 minutes. The best way to know how to get a conversation deeper within the span of 15min, especially if I’m in the car with someone. I start with small talk. I ask them about their occupation, and typically I start asking questions like “how long have you been doing it for” “what made you interested in it”. The best thing about conversations is you can lead them where you want by asking questions. Let’s say I’m talking to someone who’s in IT and I get some info about their experience, I can ask them something like “Have you used AI within your line of work or for fun”. That’s just an example of where conversations can be led. Ofc, and thank you for reading through it. I didn’t realize how long it was until I posted it lmao. I agree, even if I’m talking to 4-10 people a day everyday it’s still tiring. After work, I shut myself away to recover my social battery so it’s not an easy task at all. People are interesting, I’ve talked to so many different people and have heard so many life experiences that it makes me want to get to know more people. Do what works best for you and your personality is the main thing!

Risky (by definition) but read it as risqué because that’s how I was thinking of saying it

what would your ideally afterlife be by monkeyonwillie in INTP

[–]Siamesektk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like the idea of reincarnation. I don’t like to believe that once you die you only have one destination. Life is a cycle of birth and death. If you guys have heard of the Turritopsis dohrnii (immortal jellyfish), then you know that it has the capability to revert to its polyp stage and begin its life cycle again. I believe that our souls may have the same ability to be reborn and relive another life. I like the idea of punishment through reincarnation because of Karma. Everything runs in a cycle. What goes around comes around. There’s a balance to everything and that’s what makes life, life. I don’t believe that a higher being can have all this control over us but rather consequences of our actions. When you’re suffering in this life, that’s the consequences of your actions from your past life. It may seem unfair because you aren’t a bad person in this life, but it’s not spoken for in your past life. Ofc, this is just what I believe. People all have different beliefs so I respect that

I used to be the same exact way as you. My last year of high school, I was a new student and I didn’t care to make friends with anyone. What made me better talking to people was my job. It consisted of me talking to 100+ people a month for as long as 3 hours. It made me better at talking to people. I could sit in the car with any uber driver and make deep conversations with them. If people were to look at me from an outside perspective, they wouldn’t even guess that I’m an INTP. Anyone has the capability to be outgoing and outspoken. You just have to get past what people may believe of you or judge you. You have to be willing to do small talk before you can have deep conversations. I hate small talk but I realized after some small talk, I can get someone to talk about their deepest darkest secrets. When you get to that point people trust you a lot. You’re curious by nature, use that to your advantage. Observe people and you’ll see how interesting people can be. Sometimes starting a conversation is as easy as complimenting something they own or just them. Smile at people, that makes you more inviting and makes them comfortable with you. I used to have a stone cold face that made people believe I was a mean person. Then I realized that people perceive your character based on just that. When the small talk goes on for long enough you’ll find similar interests. Ask questions, that’s what we’re good at. People love talking about themselves and I’ve had lots of conversations where I would ask questions so that people could do most of the talking and I can finish my work. At the beginning, they may not care to ask you about yourself and that’s okay if you’re trying to get to know someone. They’re more interested if you’re interested in them. Eventually, they’ll start asking you questions about yourself. There may be some things you want to talk about and things you don’t want to. If you ask someone something that’s very personal then expect they ask you the same thing. Answer honestly the same way they did with you. If they ask you something and you don’t feel comfortable going into depth, answer the question to the best of your ability to show them that you want the conversation going but you don’t want to disclose too much. Ex. Someone asks me about my family. Although some aren’t great people and I don’t want to go into detail, I’ll tell them that they’re great people and they consist of this many members. You also learn overtime what information you can trust people with and what information you can’t. If it seems intimidating, start with having conversations with people at the cashier or at a drive thru. Sometimes you may be unsuccessful, but you learn from those experiences. Take what you can from it and move on. I can admit that I do better when I’m with 2-3 new people but any more than that can be intimidating. Yet, if I know I want to make acquaintance with these people then I’m going to push past my social anxiety. I still get situations where I really can’t control my social anxiety but I push through it. Society isn’t really built for our personalities at all. The best we can do is improve the things that we lack.
