[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am, as an INFJ

Very intuitive.  This doesn't mean that I can see the future, or have extra sensory  perception.  It means that I am super observational and see patterns quickly. I do sense a bad thing coming,  though,  but what that thing is isn't always clear.  I have an enormous sense of dread.

I can size a person up very quickly.  If they  are fake, I know  it.

I do have a lot of empathy, which exhausts me.

I need my alone time. Maybe even a nap to shut myself off.

I do care about first impressions, too much about my own.  I am afraid of mistakes..which is why I'm not in the medical field.  It would  traumatize me to make a mistake and hurt someone.  Also, I would worry about it constantly. I appreciate people who have the confidence to do those things.

I am not a big risk taker, but I'm not  afraid of change.  I like new things, creative things, but I'm not going  to bungee jump or drop acid.

I overthink way too much.

I love art, abstract art, creative art, film, writing,  books,  music.  Dark sense of humor.

I procrastinate,  but (!) I will get  it done.  If it means all night the night before,  it will be done. My procrastination is stupid.  Really stupid.

I'm better at accepting criticism now.  Nope, didn't  like it when I was younger. Or now,  but I'm older.

I'm organized.  But, in a project, it won't look that way.

I can read a room in seconds.

I am up late. Every night. It's my time.

I want to read everything.  The smart phone is the best and definitely the worst  thing  for me.

I live outside of organized groups- religion,  clubs,  cliques, career ladders.  I find the sociology of people fascinating.

I love my family,  very protective . It was hard to  be an empty nester, but I did ok. I miss my family,  though.

I love animals,  and I "get" them. Even ones I don't like really...snakes,  reptiles,  fish.

I can feel fear  in others. People who are angry are often fearful.

I am warm and open , but if someone reveals their true  colors, I'm not going to engage further.  And, that means I knew who they were before,  but they had a chance to prove otherwise.

I am, however,  a loyal friend. 
I have a hard time holding up all the balls in friend relationships, especially when my kids were small, I was working, too much going on. Constantly beating myself up if I don't call or engage for a period of time. It's much easier now.

I'm doing ok in this pandemic. I miss everyone,  things,  but I can  live with myself  for a long time. Lots of stuff in my head. I am never bored.

I won't engage in open conflict.  I will just shut the  door.

Some people say this Myers Briggs is BS. I've found it to be helpful, actually, in many ways.   Of course,  there are exceptions to everything. [/quote]

OH MY GOSH, you're me!![/quote]

Me too. Amazing. What do you both do for a career? Do you have very vivid dreams or psychic type of dreams or experiences?[/quote]

I am this poster. I was a teacher,  not the best choice  for  me, but I did ok- just didn't appreciate all the energy draining aspects and politics. It wasn't my true "calling."

I do dream vividly, dreams aren't really psychic, though. I can definitely sense  something coming generally, and while I won't know  what it is specifically,  the *something* always  happens,  and it's significant. (I don't  get "messages",  see dead people, etc., nothing like that.) It's just a heightened abstract sense. [/quote]

What do you do now?[/quote]

College adjunct, part time...I could  be retired. I am old enough to be. If I could do it again (?)..journalist, research,  library science,  content writer.

The internet changed things along my trajectory.  Had it been  there when I graduated college,  things definitely would  have  been different. [/quote]
