It is an invitation to treat like a Christmas Card. It is pre-scan (observation), pre-orientation, pre-decision, and pre-action. Don't take any notice of the stupid Hawks INTJ. They are just imitating the Boss ENTJ.

PS: I did this once. She (ESTJ) replied back and I got my evidence of bullying and then she phoned the Police. It was unwanted.

This is not the best policy. What is best is to lead him out to the garden and squirt him with a "high pressure" hose pipe of water until he is soaking wet and has to take off all his clothes.

Prometheus

Prometheus having his liver eaten out by an eagle. Painting by Jacob Jordaens, c. 1640, Wallraf-Richartz-Museum, Cologne, Germany.

In Greek mythology, Prometheus (Ancient Greek: Προμηθεύς, "forethought")[1] is a Titan, the son of Iapetus and Themis, and brother to Atlas, Epimetheus and Menoetius. He was a champion of human-kind known for his wily intelligence, who stole fire from Zeus and gave it to mortals.[2] Zeus then punished him for his crime by having him bound to a rock while a great eagle ate his liver every day only to have it grow back to be eaten again the next day. His myth has been treated by a number of ancient sources, in which Prometheus is credited with – or blamed for – playing a pivotal role in the early history of humankind.

Love Bird in Trouble Again

Another fight with my intp

---

K. We had a severe fight. I feel absolutely....terrible...like utterly...I feel like asshole. The more I try to explain it to her...the more she detaches...and dear God it hurts so badly. It makes me feel so helpless to know that the more I express myself the more she shuts me off. I know why this is happening...I know how it is happening....I'm just expressing deep pain cause I can't to her.

[quote=thehigher;190128]I almost never whine. I don't whine to her especially. Now I come on here to merely get it off my chest. Thanks bud.

PS: please get off of your whole man vs boy/ masculine psychology/ game/ pussy vs masculine male psychobabble. I get it. You think women are not attracted to wussies and because I showed my weak side that she lost attraction. You're obnoxiously wrong if that is anywhere near what you think. Oh and stop pretending like you don't feel the same things some times. Some people actually decide to talk about it rather than deny that they have such feelings. Grow up.[/quote]

The distress reactions of INTPs are hypersensitivity to emotional relationships. This is not general hypersensitivity, not unless the INTP is a PINT (Pornographic Priestess). High perception INTPs may be more emotional.

Note in contrast the typology prayer of an ISTP is insensitivity. I am not sure I can reconcile these differences. ISTPs can go mad with grief and anger. It is called "Bear with a Sore Head".

Perseus (Official Identity Card if the Druids throw the Romans out)

Perseus (Official Identity Card if the Druids throw the Romans out)

I actually arrived in a Shooting Star meteor storm from the constellation Perseus in the last quarter of the year. It was written in the stars that Perseus killed Medusa the Gorgon and later rescued and married Andromeda. Therefore, I am a Greek, not a Druid at all. Sorry.

However, in the dreamtime (modern animism) I am a Golden Eagle (INTP) morph-shifting to Phoenix (XNXP) from Neptune but I am quite an adept shape-shifter when my energy levels are OK to my earlier Dragon (INFP), probably a Marzipan type) incarnation (living at Thundersbarrow) and to Snakes (ENTP) to spook the Horsemen or Atrebates (ESFJ). Altogether as a Psychedelic personality type (NP), I am not fond of the Guards (SJ) and the Crazies (SF).
This is probably more Druid style, but I am not trained in the ancient religion.

My most accurate (first) reading on the Paragon scale (1-12) was
Introvert 8
Intuitive 10
Thinker 7
Perception 11

My Apotropaic is a large green plastic Turtle (INXP).

Perseus has not adopted a Tolkien style D & D character, but in my previous incarnation as Glaucus (the fishermen changed into a God after eating a magic herb) I was probably a Nereid Elf.

My Political Compass position is in the Green.

I reside in the land conquered by the South Saxons, but my heritage is Cantium (Roman spelling). My DNA has not been tested but I suspect I am second wave (Ukrainian refuge). Possibly descended from German immigrants but with Bryonthic stock.

A third party might punch our lights out!

"Let's get a little closer."

"It is OK to touch me."

So far you have given him all the right nonverbal body language cues to show that you are interested in him and you have accepted him into your space, for now. He also proved he could carry on a decent conversation, you share some common interests, and he is socialized and not weird.

Comment: But NPs are weird!

We do not necessarily respond to body language, because firstly our Intuition says something is awry, and secondly our Perception might say so. Thirdly, a third party might punch our lights out!

When the Centre is Lost

The ENFP is usually a bundle of energy, but they can become exhausted if they are overloaded with work. They also will experience stress if their values and principles are violated and they see others in the company being hurt by policies that kill the human spirit. Then they become hypersensitive to what is going on around them. Facts become exaggerated. They have feelings of paranoia and may withdraw. To regain their equilibrium, meditation will help. Kindness and support by others, but not patronization, will help them get back to normal. Says Gloria, “I’d given a number of years of support to one boss, then he started bad-mouthing me. It threw me into a turmoil. I became suspicious of him and everyone else. Then a friend said that the boss was blowing up at everyone, not just me, and encouraged me to look at a position in a new section. I meditated to become centered again, then applied for the job. I love my new job and now life is great again. My old boss retired; he was drinking too much.”

NB: When the centre is lost "all purpose and direction is lost"

When the centre is lost in the circle, it cannot be found except by two lines crossing each other at right angles'.

Dealing With Stress From Work

by kipparent on Thu Jan 15, 2009 10:54 am

How do you deal with work-related stress? Each personality type has different stressors and copes in different ways. Better understanding of your own stressors and coping mechanisms can help you reduce the tension and anxiety work stress often creates.

When stressed, Guardians usually report being sick, tired, sad, or worried.

Since Artisans are usually optimistic and like taking risks, it takes a lot to get them stressed. But if they become severely stressed, Artisans can act out against others or themselves.

Idealists tend to work for a better future for all, so if things keep going badly and they lose hope, they become stressed. When Idealists experience great stress, they can have muscle or sensory problems.

Rationals search for knowledge, competence, and eternal truths. If these needs are blocked, they become stressed. When Rationals experience great stress, they experience thoughts that tell them either that they must act or think in a particular way or that they must not act or think in a particular way. The outside observer sees the Rational as driven by compulsions or prohibitions.

Here are links to articles on each of the temperaments, and how each of the types experiences, and is able to deal with, work-related stress.

Guardians: Bearing Up

Artisans: Acting Out

Idealists: Out of Balance

Rationals: Appearing Compulsive
