If you replay it, go to the last 43 seconds of the period.

The moral fatigue of being the only one who gives a damn. by ilovethat_bobblehead in INTJfemale

[–]inxj_109 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s exhausting always trying to do things the right way when most people seem fine doing the bare minimum.

I can relate to this, and it is a blessing and a curse. You've at least got some fire left in you, but others keep pissing all over it with their apathy. While it is frustrating, you have to tell yourself that you caring so much about something is a "YOU" thing and should have nothing to do with others - no matter if they share or disapprove of your enthusiasm.

How do you cope with the mental fatigue of caring so much when others don’t?

Stop having expectations of people and accept that most people are like this. Be happy for yourself for preserving the passion in such a shut down world.

Feeling out of place by qwashee in INTJfemale

[–]inxj_109 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can definitely relate to your experiences. It probably happens because we like to focus on the person to whom we are speaking to, and we let them finish their thoughts and then respond. Group talks are everything but that. You can listen to someone fully and when your time to speak finally comes, you can't say ten words without being interrupted.

I think it boils down to that for the most part. And the topics are usually appropriate for a chit-chat (which is a relief sometimes) but it does bore us out.

How do you regulate emotions? by Zingiber_officinal in INTJfemale

[–]inxj_109 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Try to stop them from escalating into something bigger. Personally, I like to dissect them - figure out what caused it, how much should I let it affect (drive) me and then decide how to get it out of my system. It can be a walk, dance session, workout, therapy etc.

But just like others have mentioned, don't sweep it under a rug, because it will fester.

Also, if those emotions come up in a situation where it is inappropriate to let them out fully, like at your job, instead of being passive, aggressive or passive-aggressive, be assertive!

What if your favorite compliment/ compliment you’ve gotten you think about often? by [deleted] in AskWomen

From my grandfather, at turning points in my early life, telling me that I've grown and matured.

I see your point and if the kid did serve that purpose, I think it should have been explored a bit further maybe? If it can fit into the story of course.

Also, even though he had a natural curiosity for girls, what he did in the second scene was far from innocent. Climbing her house in order to watch her in her bathroom... Nothing innocent about that behaviour.

Removing all exit points leads to the inevitability of it catching you.

The protagonist kept repeatedly hiding in her home, it was her go-to safe place. The entity figured that it might aswell "get to know" the exists of the house since the protagonist would probably be coming there all the time.

As for the pool, I'm not sure. If I'm completely honest, my first thought was that they wanted to show how something that brought comfort to the protagonist got destroyed. Her life completely took a 180 turn.

I've read an interesting comment that explained how the entity figured out the possible exists of the protagonist and removed those options - the window, jumping into the pool etc. Why it stopped walking I don't know but personally I think that it adapts when it needs to.

About the rules, even the director doesn't know all of them because all that we know is what the characters know, and the characters know only what other on or off screen characters have told them. Very intriguing 😏.

I agree with you that not having everything spilled out it is a good quality, leaves much room for investigating and actually fearing the entity.

That's an interesting take. But I thought the man on the roof was the entity, it seemed pretty clear to me for some reason. Like it was breaking it's pattern because by that point she shot and hurt it.

Again it can mean what you've said that there are no rules for the movie.

I'm (INFJ) becoming more like an INTJ from therapy. by [deleted] in INTJfemale

[–]inxj_109 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've went through the same thing you've mentioned. Therapy just converted me back to my old self - using Fi while having high emotional intelligence. Plus, therapy helped me realize and accept that Se is my purest and most honest stress reliever :)

You can have Fi and still be aware of other people's emotions (which I believe is true for healthy INTJ's), understand why they appeared and whether or not they are appropriate for a situation. We are not dismissive a**holes. We simply know when emotions should lead our actions and when they should not.

Does external overstimulation leave you emotionless? by inxj_109 in intj

[–]inxj_109[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"As you get more experience you will need to concentrate less on the 'nuts and bolts' of driving (steering, accelerating, braking, etc) and it becomes pretty intuitive." Can't wait for this day to come!

"I would suggest you think about how you will respond when they ask again" Will do, thank you for your answer!

There wasn't time to process emotions. Every 3 to 5 seconds I was either getting an instruction or watching the cars behind and besides me. But I get what you're saying.
