Wow. This part exactly. I always do this and avoid people like this in general. I don’t feel safe with them if they’re unpredictable. My friend also called me cold while we were arguing and I didn’t realize what she meant because I didn’t say anything that was brutal. I could relate to...

Thank you for this. And you read the situation very well when I didn’t know why I was feeling this way myself. I wasn’t able to get any sleep last night because of it and woke up realizing I messed up immediately by not just letting it go and apologizing right away and just let my ego getting...

I think you hit the nail on the head. I’m confused myself. The thing is I’ve never been in a situation like this. What would compromise look like in this situation? What would you do? I want to know how someone else would handle this because I don’t know how to work something out when both...

Over a week ago I got into a petty argument you can say with a friend. We haven’t spoken in a week but not in a bad way really cause we just both mutually ended the discussion and gave each other some space. Small fights are nothing and it’s nothing to end a friendship about. But it makes me...

I don’t know why but I never feel comfortable when I leave my house and step foot into the “real world”. For some reason I just feel I’m leaving my real self at home and whenever I step out I’m more guarded and not authentic. Because of this belief that the real me is at home, I just feel fake...

Thank you! I think my problem may be I’m too empathetic sometimes. I always think of how another person may feel or perceive the situation and act differently to make them comfortable. I realized when I do this I feel disconnected from myself. Have you ever empathized to much where you start to...

When I think about if I do have expectations but for me they seem like normal expectations. Whenever I meet someone I expect them to be emotionally intelligent otherwise I just write them off as being untrustworthy. I really don’t see anyone who doesn’t have emotional intelligence as being...

I think that takes a lot of strength. I keep pushing in my head how I react is a reflection of my character, and how another person reacts is a reflection of theirs. But I don’t have that much courage to be vulnerable to people who might look down on me because of it. And once you open yourself...

I agree on cynicism being a fools idea of wisdom. I hate it. I hate doubting people and being reserved but it’s just in my nature and when I fight it I feel I’m being inauthentic. The past two years I’ve made the effort to choose to be vulnerable and open my heart more. I’ve felt when doing this...

To add onto what I said earlier because I can’t edit it. “Similarly, I’ve weeded out bad people I’ve met and my friends were never able to. They always made me feel like a bad person for not being as naive and being able to doubt people like that even if I end up being correct. So many times I...

I was watching this movie last night and one of the characters wasn’t as introspective and they just seemed so in tune with themselves. I noticed everyone gravitated towards this person because they probably were enamoured by that as well and I’ve met so many people throughout my life who are...

I just realized you can’t answer question #3 with yes or no I apologize! Also I’m open to any suggestions for questions to add/remove to better test my hypothesis

Hey guys, I have a interview/survey assignment in one class and we got to choose our topics so I decided to come up with a theory surrounding our personality styles having influence on our political views. I have a theory that introverts tend to be more 'cynical' per say than extroverts? I...
