    One word on how you see reality or the world

    i asked this among friends. got 100 responses. putting it on a map has been a learning experience, seeing how diverse my friends are, there's been so few repeated words, surprisingly. thanks to OP for the idea. the only infj amongst them answered "hell". i feel sad for it, but it is as it is...

    What books/stories have made a difference in your life?

    thank you all for sharing. I think I'll go down to the bookstore sometime this weekend to browse some of your titles. Books have always been a sort of salve and enlightenment. Had heard about Randy Pausch's The Last Lecture for a while, but never got down to reading it. Searched for it just...

    What books/stories have made a difference in your life?

    And why - be it in terms of sharing insight, changing a perspective, being a catalyst for enlightenment, inspiration to make you want to be better, or sheer, unadulterated fun relief etc? if relevant, include the age-range/life stage that the particular book appealed to you as well...

    What makes someone a good partner?

    my head is spinning from all the notes I've made. I do have a question: how do i know if an infj means what he says (i.e. without any need for open/further intepretation), if assuming, there's all these background analysis and expectations going on, i'd be right to think then that there's a...

    How do you feel about makeup?

    I like makeup! It's fun! The face and body is a beautiful canvas, and i think if one is using it to bring out the attractiveness within, why not. =) Also for work, it is more professional in my line - clients expect someone well-growned, professional, and we don't always wake up with perky...

    infj/entp issues

    what is important to her? If an INFJ holds family, faith and love as their mainstays of life, and she loves you, if you were to put her in this position of having to choose between the three, i don't see how that will not create a huge dissonance within her and tear her apart. while her...

    Love is essential

    By living it perhaps... you learn to love someone, and yourself, by the little choices we make everyday - are we choosing to be kind, respectful, trustworthy, someone who can be trusted. honesty, emotional authenticity. i've found that like attracts like - it is hard to love/be loved if one is...

    A Good Solid Question

    Because most people do not really care about something, unless it happens to them. It is easier for most people to inflict pain and seek pardon, than to be the one inflicted and have to forgive. Whether cheating is right/wrong... depends on the individual. I've ended a friendship which...

    How do you respond to confrontation?

    I struggle with conflict. On the surface I'm non-reactive/reasoned. But inside, it's a turmoil of emotions and stress building up. Sometimes my head hurts. The worst part is before and after the confrontation, when what-ifs scenarios keep playing through my head, and the conflict gets...

    Is this the end?

    Hi there, I've been lurking and wondering to post or not for a while - your thread was hard personally in many ways. I can only speak for children, as I've volunteered with abused/ abandoned/ delinquent children and teens. - children will not be able to fully understand why you're walking...
