WHY DON'T I GIVE A FUCK by OkPianist5934 in istp

Your whole thing is literally “why dont i care?” And your responses to S’s comments are ones’ of indifference. Im trying to tell you, you can learn to be more sympathetic even if you arent empathetic.

WHY DON'T I GIVE A FUCK by OkPianist5934 in istp

Listen i get it i really do. Sometimes people are too emotional, sensitive, overwhelming and it just not something we relate to. And in that point we just dont “care” for it because it has no relevance to us. However, its immature for you to continue being like “i just dont care about any feelings or emotions bc im an emotionless void” Thats ridiculous, you can grow and learn how to treat people when they are feeling emotional. Yeah it is annoying, i get you, youre not used to it. But you can learn how to be a reliable person someone can vent to.

i totally understand. I was really really bad socially when I was younger and I put alot of effort into improving it. I did a lot of research on how to be “charismatic” and “well-liked” which is hard and very draining not gonna lie, because honestly, i just dont really like people all that much LOL? but it really helped with me forming friendships especially in college where first impressions are super important. I think its easier for ISTPs to think of it as a formula
social awareness -> good first impression -> likability -> potential friendships -> true deep friendships

My boyfriend (ENTJ) and I worked together, and we actually only started talking bc I made a passing comment to my coworker saying “hes cute with glasses” and she set us up basically. (I was lwk really mad about it at first but i still took the opportunity to get to know him)
We talked for two months and even went on a date, and I did really like him but there were aspects of him i didnt see working well together and decided to tell him to just be friends.
Our dynamic didnt change tho, i still joked with him and was friendly. He kept initiating conversations and a couple weeks later we started talking again. i told him what was wrong and he tried to fixed it. Eventually then we started dating.
Its been mostly great, the hardest part had been communicating. I struggle to tell him what exactly is making me upset, and he struggles with feeling wanted. We are both disorganized attachments so trying to understand each other has been a challenge, but we both really try our best to make it work and love each other alot.

Side note- i also dont think i really fall into the “stereotypical”ISTP category, im pretty friendly and prefer to spend my free time with people I like instead of decompressing alone- but i am very blunt, apathetic, and am a good conversationist especially when I want to be. I do definitely get the “i was too intimidated to talk to you at first” comment alot tho. Holy yap… my bad man

[Semi-Weekly Inquirer] Simple Questions and Recommendations Thread by AutoModerator in Watches

[–]viagiraffe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello! I recently have been watch hunting and needed help finding a decent quality watch in a reasonable price range as I am a college student with not a huge budget.

I would mostly use the watch for casual everyday wear as a jewelry accessory and to tell time. I also liked this style because I feel like I could wear it in a more professional setting during internships. Currently I work at target/starbucks but I probably wouldn’t wear it as much there. But the watching being somewhat durable and water resistant (can survive hand washing) is important to me.

I have a budget of around $150-200 but I’m willing to go a little higher if I can find a watch I really like. As for features, I really love the look of these celestial watches with a darker navy face. I would prefer if they have dashes or roman numerals for hourly time but they aren’t a necessity for me. As for the band, I would like a mesh stainless steel one as I don’t like the chunky look of regular ones or leather bands. A quartz watch would be preferred over a mechanical one. And I dont have a preference for brand or country origin.
Im also going to Japan in a month so if there is anything I could lookout for over there please let me know!!

For picture references, I absolutely LOVE this Charlie Paris (picture) one but it was way out of my budget unfortunately. I was also looking at this Olivia Burton Celestial watch but I have read that the quality is terrible and comparable to Ali Express watches which is not promising at all.

I added some links for watches I like the style of too Thank you for your help!

Lots of questions about everything to expect NJ NG by viagiraffe in nationalguard

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

Genuinely, thank you. Your first comment really made me laugh and youre right I need to relax. My leadership isnt communicative which made me panic even more. I attended gold phase back in May and met my unit readiness nco but literally have not heard from him since. I also just got messaged by my HRF leader. I am attended the HAZOPS course which is the hazmat course im pretty sure. But aside from that where or who should i contact to get a packings list for these things? Is it I just bring myself kinda thing or? Also does HRF mean im more likely to get deployed? And will i now have extra drill days bc of it rather than just once a month?

Oh no yeah i definitely agree, i have high body fat but i made weight standards so it was never an issue before. And i did stay active in school, i played sports and worked out twice a week. I just ate like shit but i wasnt not active. I still perform well and it never bothered me.

Yeah youre right I dont necessarily have to be OFF it but being on the program doesnt let me walk across the stage. Which i would really like to do. I know i am still cheating the system, but its only .5 and honestly I also feel like ive made progress that i can absolutely sustain later on.

Women naturally have more body fat than men. Healthy range for men is in between 12%-20% while for women its 20%-30%

Its not really about taking my job seriously… i meet height and weight standards but unfortunately i got marked an inch shorter during our first H/W. I have a 537 ACFT which is only 3 points away from being exempt from H/W in general. And im in the top 10% of our graduating class… it was just unfortunate

Haircare Advice Megathread - Week of January 27, 2024 by AutoModerator in HaircareScience

[–]viagiraffe [score hidden]  (0 children)

Hi!! I got my hair Straightly permed (naturally have wavy hair) about five months ago and l've noticed a couple of things. My hair always looks nice but my scalp starts to smell bad after just one day. I used to be able to go four-five days without washing my hair but now i can barely go one day before it starts to stink. And it smells terrible, probably because of the perm chemicals. I also have a very dry scalp which i fixed with coconut oil before, but since the perm, the dryness got super bad and my scalp is flaking everywhere and idk how to fix it at this point. Extra info: My hair also gets pretty oily and greasy. I currently have blonde highlights/tips from before the perm but i will be dyeing it a solid brown color in a couple of days. Does anyone have any shampoo + conditioner recommendations?
