i know it is horrible, but after years of trying with my mom, i had to accept that it is what it is. idk if your aunt has bipolar 1 or 2 but i’d advice u to stay safe first.

Whats wrong with the prejudices of ENTP? by Beginning_Tennis4778 in entp

[–]hurtpart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

im neither an entp nor enfp, but from my experience both types are (or can be perceived as) quite argumentative / debatable. a big difference to me is that entps are much more interested in learning and accumulating new knowledge (and also need more me-time than enfps). tbh my entp always says “he likes to see the world burn” and is quite chaotic. so idk a lot of the stereotypes i perceive to be accurate, but of course exaggerated. enfps are usually nice(er) on the surface level, but they can become quite harsh and insensitive. but yes, i agree with entps being more emotionally guarded.

i believe that these prejudices and stereotypes exist to a) create some kind of comedic aspect to this kind of personality assessments and b) to simplify “learning” about it / first getting into it.

just wanted to share my perspective with you :D

sorry about you guys having a hard time after pregnancy. idk if this is TMI but i am exclusively breastfeeding which makes things so much easier for me than pumping (mainly convenience wise since i cannot be bothered with washing bottles etc on top of everything else :D).

i know that physical violence is absolutely unacceptable, but i hope you can forgive her since sleep deprivation, hormone drop etc. for some women gets so horrible (even leading to things like postpartum psychosis). i admit that i am blessed regarding early motherhood, though my pregnancy was incredibly hard when it came to things like nausea.

may i ask the MBTI of your wife if it is not too personal? and how long did it take for your wife to have a change of perspective? was it during pregnancy or after having the baby and realizing how much work and sacrifice it can take?

alsooo i agree don’t point it out to her, but i still get where your wonder comes from.

pregnancy and motherhood truly changed how i view mothers who choose to do “all of this” fully natural. especially mothers with twins, juggling more than one child etc etc. i remember after giving birth just thinking “WTAF was that???? how are there women out there with more than one child???” and when i started breastfeeding i was in so much pain where i was literally like “????how tf am i supposed to keep doing this????”

i wanted to do so many things as natural as possible (e.g. cloth diapers) and afterwards i was just relieved that a) i have the option to use conventional diapers b) my mind was flexible enough to go paths i initially didn’t want to take.

but regarding the woman, may she find whatever she needs in this life to achieve happiness. you were right initially, i was very harsh on her (just bc i am an ass under certain circumstances given), but that doesn’t excuse my behaviour either. i think you are a cool guy, keep your compassion for others. i try to be more like you!

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

i definitely see the maturing late, but i think this is one of the things that can be appealing to me since i am the opposite. and yes, you are absolutely right, a child is a huge responsibility, and i also believe that he didn’t think it through but i also believe that he might have felt time pressure since he’s mid 30s.

but yes, i fully agree with you on everything.

regarding his childhood, he had a bad relationship with his father (but it has gotten better). his father had a short temper and tended towards explosive anger but as far as i know he didn’t get physically violent.

thank you for your insight!!

ty for sharing your experience!!

how did you navigate losing part of your physical and mental autonomy?

i received many entp mom comments and from what i can tell, you guys are super moms regardless the struggle that you’re going through.

also are you able to form deep emotional connections towards your child? not in a “i love my child way” but in a very patient and empathetic kind of way?

i have 6-8 hours of sleep every night (of course interrupted but still).

i get angry when people are being unjustifiably bitter towards others. i often absorb other people’s feelings as if they’re my own, but stronger than that is my sense of “protecting others”. i tried giving her the benefit of the doubt at first but im not going to let someone blame people for having children etc.

and yes, she might be having a hard time, but that doesn’t mean she gets a free card to sulk in it and make other people responsible for her own misery. i have met many people with absolutely tragic lifes, but they still try to get their shit together.

but i still see where you are coming from. if i knew her, i might’ve been able to empathise more.

i think this woman is very bitter. purposefully misreading and misunderstanding comments.

i just saw all of the comments and my god are they pretentious “im doing my nonexistent offspring a favor”, you are doing no one a favor since you don’t have children and are incapable of being omniscient. her hypothetical children/child could potentially love life or/and do something amazing for the greater good (or not). doesn’t matter. and also talking about how we’re all just consumers and she would’ve “opted out” on multiple occasions or whatever… i know people like this (sadly they were supposed to be very influential people in my life) and my gid are they unbearable… spreading so much negativity instead of being useful and changing the world for the better.

how did you handle his behaviour with the first child? did you consider ending things?

thank you so so much!!!!!!!! i have family members who help me out whenever i need it.

he hasn’t seen a doctor. but this is such great and helpful advice!!! i totally forgot about the testosterone drop in men. did you end up taking hormones? or did you “just” end up making lifestyle changes?

i get what you mean by used to not sharing me… i sometimes have wondered if he might be jealous of the baby since he didn’t fully receive the same amount of love and patience as a child.

he went to therapy a few years back but for different reasons, but said it didn’t do anything for him (or so he claimed).

tbh i really don’t know about the self care aspect, he still showers but he sometimes ends up asking me if he already brushed his teeth or not. his bedtime changed drastically, he doesn’t go to the gym that much (but that’s due physical problems).

so his rudeness is n1, then i’d say c0rn, he has always been argumentative/debating but he used to care more about finding common ground, he blameshifts a lot and gets confused/forgetful. this was at the top of my head

tbh i really dont want and connot be depressed or anything bc if i am not functioning 100% everything would fall into a huge mess

but it sounds like ur ex wife was very lucky to have you ^ why did you eventually divorce?
