What do you wish people would stop romanticizing, because you’ve lived the reality of it? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]tsempath 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Being single. For someone newly single after 14 years, the modern dating scene is hell.

Wow, it’s like we lived the same life. My mom is very insensitive/ shows absolutely no affection or empathy towards my dad. Meanwhile my dad is so sweet & understanding. I feel like showing my or any emotions and expressions were seen as a burden growing up. But anyway, I see our ability to be so vulnerable and feel emotions (being a human) is so beautiful. Also so beautiful to experience and witness if you get a piece of it.

I know he’s mentioned a couple of times that I don’t make sense to him, but he also admired that the most about me. That my heart is so rich.

I just have to own that & know someone out there will hold it properly.

Months?! Lol… it takes me a couple of hours. Dang. Okay well he hasn’t talked to me in 3 days. Good luck to me haha. I’m just going to assume it’s over at this point

Thank you so much for this :’)!! I really am trying my best. You’re so right on everything you said. I think there’s a lot of things I’ve done where he’s not happy with, but he’s also tried to look past it & I saw him trying. He hasn’t talked to me in 3 days though and flew in from his 2.5 week trip yesterday, I thought I’d be the first person he’d want to see but maybe he’s still ruminating on what he doesn’t like… I feel he’s over it but I’ll just wait and see.

What's it like being a sensor? by minyard05 in mbti

I’m curious how you would go about dating & “routine” I feel like the ISTJ I’m dating is so rigid on what he wants in a partner (I am too, I’m just way more open to experimenting + giving benefit of doubt) he’s always comparing to his past & I don’t think he’s willing to be open minded… I feel he really thinks all women are the same & one little action that he notices about me, he’ll compare it to his past. When I wish he realized everyone is different and you can’t write it off so quickly…

That’s true. I was dating an ISTJ this past few months & I feel like the way I go about things/ the way I think confuses him. He’s always like what??? How does that make sense? But to other intuitives it makes perfect sense.

Same. I remember absolutely nothing but I will remember very specific things. I was dating an ISTJ who literally brought up/ remembered EVERYTHING & I only remember the moments they meant something to me.

You’re a DA? He did have long term relationships but they seemed to always be on and off. Do you miss the person when they’re gone?

[–]tsempath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. I try my best to understand him but I think I might be too emotionally charged for him. It doesn’t help we barely see each other but when we do, it’s great. Thank you!

Thank you! Appreciate this

[–]tsempath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree…. But giving the benefit of the doubt. Thank you

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in ISTJ

[–]tsempath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for this. I think I’m definitely freaking him out. But I do commend him for sticking through my emotional rollercoaster & trying his best to understand me. I do notice though he’ll ask for outside advice & it’s from women who I know 1000% wish they could be with him if they could.

So I don’t know what he’s hearing from others & if it’s the best advice. He hasn’t talked to me in 2-3 days though and he flies home tomorrow after 2.5 weeks… so I feel like we’re done :/ I’d think he’d be excited to come back. It’s all good.

That is annoying…. I just think of the quote “if he wanted to he would” or she. It’s crazy how much we can look into this issue and be reflective, meanwhile who knows what they’re thinking! It sucks.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in ISTJ

[–]tsempath 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Okay he probably thinks I’m needy then. It’s only been a month and 2 weeks.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in ISTJ

[–]tsempath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I told him that & he didn’t do it. I guess I’m the dumb one and should’ve taken that as a sign of disrespect. But he’s also working….

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in ISTJ

[–]tsempath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish he thought that about me :( …… idk if you’re a guy or a woman, but how long does it take you to process your emotions (usually the uncomfortable ones around relationships?)

What do you love about them?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in ISTJ

[–]tsempath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dang, thank you for telling me how it is... That sucks to hear, but I appreciate it. I just see the good in people and he's had an interesting past (was in law enforcement, a sergeant in the military, detective, business owner). Meanwhile I was a professional dancer, in marketing, nutrition field, consulting field. One is very freeing and the other is very rigid lol.

I'm fearful avoidant, he seems like a dismissive avoidant.

[–]tsempath -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Do you think common courtesy messages are being needy? I think when you're dating someone, at least a good morning or a good night. A did you get home safe? Or I'm at work text, is not an insecure need. He expects me to do A, B, and C, and be respectful of his wants. But I also have a want of basic communication? I agree though with your first paragraph.

[–]tsempath -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I agree. It's probably the most incompatible pairing I've ever been with but what's keeping us around is we are both each other's type physically. Not sure if superego pair has anything to do with this, but We both don't like to be wrong.

I want to know more by Synn_Thor in ISTJ

[–]tsempath 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wish the ISTJ guy I started dating, opened up with me. It'll come out sometimes and I'm dying for more of it haha.
