Woo hoo Wargod! Another INFP! Can introverts be competitve too? lol!

When I was taking that test, I knew I would be put in the introvert category, but I have a question for all introverts.

When it asked you if you were in a crowded room, (or something like that) would you tend to stand along the edge or be in the middle?

I said be in the middle. To me, standing along the edge would draw MORE attention to me, so, although I don't like to feel crowded, I would just get in the middle and chitchat for awhile, and then leave with the first wave of people to go.

Does this make any sense to anyone?

Nope, you're not the only one. I'm an INFJ too!

Webkitty, if I were to stand in the middle of the room, I would feel entirely exposed and vulnerable. If I'm at the edge there are fewer people around me and I can slip out more easily without making a splash. But what do I know, I'm just a cold heartless b*stard. :)

Hey Other Half (Square)..I got married at an air force chapel which is not much different from a courthouse. I hope your DH is not a Leo.

Right Fanny, that's why I said I would leave with the first wave of people, so I wouldn't make a splash.

And if the room was crowded, then I wouldn't be exposed, just hemmed in, lol!!

But all of us crowded in the middle would be looking around the room to the sculkers sneaking out, J/K!!!!!!!!!!!! (and your not a cold hearted b@stard)

Well, lets see....first of all the only way I'd walk into a crowded room would be if it was filled with people I knew well, LOL. And even then I'd hang out on the sidelines talking to a small group of people. While I do occassionally go out and party with friends I much prefer to either stay home or visit them at home...keeping it kind of 1 on 1 instead of a huge group.

It doesn't matter to me if its a crowd of family or a crowd of close friends...I am uncomfortable and tend to either sit in the corner watching whats going on or having a bit to drink, loosening up, and stepping a bit out of character, LOL.

Ok, I created a thread just for the personality traits conversation.

What is your personality

Dra - I'll take that test tonight it's gonna be tough though - hard to really base my personality on how I am right now since I have no phone..no car.. and no real spending money etc.. my q's will all be different then they will be in 6 months.


The fact thread is driving me crazy the past few days - I only seem to show up when it's at 16...17... lol... I want to do some '5'ers' or 10'ers but those always seem to hit while I am gone LOL!

Oh well I guess 2 10'ers would be a 20'er right?

I'll just do two sets of 10 and put em together LOL.

fanny/square still thinking alike. i have always seemed like a cold, heartless, b*tch/b*stard to others who don't know me/us. and yep would be on the edge ready to make a fast getaway. d.h. is a sagitarius(sp), we are so opposite.

Fanny

Fanny/Square high five's Square/Fanny, you cold heartless b*stard, you!

It's a good thing DH is a Sagitarius. If he were a Leo I'd say you were in trouble and would be divorced in 5 years.

(I'm stalking you, can you tell?) lol

Ok.. I'm kind of cheating here.. Didn't want to start a whole other thread, and similar things have been mentioned in people's facts here, sooooo...

I've been watching Taken on SCi-Fi and it has me thinking.. We have people here who openly admit that they have had, seen or believe in ghosts and or spirits, etc.

Has anyone here ever seen what they thought was a UFO or anything else along those lines?

I've seen a few weird things in the mornings on my way to work (before my disabilty) that I was never 100% sure what they were, but have never saw anything I knew for sure was "alien" like.
If you did see something like that, would you be willing to share it with others, or be more apt to keep it to yourself?

Mygetaway, I had a very bizarre thing happen to me once years ago that I can't explain. I haven't told very many people about it because it is simply inexplicable. I have found no rational explanation for the event, so I tend not to say anything.

Thanks for sharing that with *me* Sia..
I was just wondering about this since the shows been on this week. Telling someone you've seen a ghost is a little more common then telling someone you've been abducted or seen a spaceship. I'm not saying I believe 100%, but I'm not a firm disbeliever either. I tend to get a little wrapped up in a subject sometimes, and then I want to delve deeper into it..

(I'd like to hear more, but understand 100% if you don't want to share it in this forum.)

My earliest childhood recollection was what I believe to this day was a ghost (or poltergeist, whatever). I had an experience in my teens in my grandparents' ancient house which flipped me out, too. Having said that, I've never really sat down and asked myself whether I believe in ghosts and what does that mean to me. I've just had a couple of experiences that tell me to keep an open mind about it. I haven't had any close encounters of the 3rd kind, either, unless you want to count my Worst Date. I can't believe that there's NOT plenty of other life out there in the universe. I just don't think they're visiting us.

Mygetaway....I had an experience back in the mid 1960's. It was a beautiful summer night...the sky was clear and there were lots of stars out. A group of us ...about four or five were standing on the street corner talking. It was getting late, but we didn't want to go inside because it was such a nice night. We were teens about 14, 15, or 16 years old. Our parents could see us from their windows...so they allowed us some extra time. Normally we would have been in by 10:00, but this night we were out about 10:30.

We happened to be looking up at the stars...when one of my friends noticed a "star" was moving. We began to watch it as it moved in a direct orbital path like a satillite. We were discussing whether this "satillite" was one of ours or one of theirs (meaning the Russians).

As we were watching it...all of a sudden ...the "satillite" changed course dramatically (like 90 degrees) and shot across the sky. I mean it just took off in a completely different direction at a remarkable speed. It definitely was NOT a satillite. Now my friends and I were above average students...and stood there for quite some time trying to come up with a logical explanation for what we saw. We also had to convince ourselves that we really saw what we saw...and we all had seen it.

We left confused and somewhat uneasy if not frightened. I went into our house and was trying to explain to my mother what just happened...when the news came on. They announced that there had been a UFO sighting reported from Michigan Tech University. Michigan Tech is an engineering school...lots of scientific, logical minds there.

So, now I was certain that what we saw was the same thing THEY saw. It was indeed a UFO and it was never explained.

i have never had an encounter of the 3rd kind either, but i do believe in life out there very much. marysafan, wow.

I firmly believe that we are not the only sentient beings in the whole entire universe, how could we be? To think otherwise is rather arrogant, imo.
As science advances, I think the concept of "aliens" will become more and more excepted. (again, jmo)
I've never come close to a 3rd encounter or seen anything resembling a ufo, and I sort of hope I don't. I'm not sure they would be friendly.

Believing in ghosts, (invisable entities, demons, whatever) is harder for me to "get" but I did have a scary experience once that was also shared by 3 other people that we couldn't explain. It happened, and none of us have ever talked about it again. Just typing about it makes me feel uncomfortable.
So I'm not sure what to believe about this.

I was scrolling down, reading everyone's posts and thinking what my response would be. I was gonig to say although I've never had a close encounter-like experience, it would be rather arrogant to believe we are the only beings to populate the universe.

And then I saw Webkitty's post. Which was exactly what mine would be if I wrote as eloquently as Webkitty! :)

I've just had a close encounter with Webkitty...does that count? Seriously, she said it just right.
