#someintrovert

The image below demonstrates the 6 most common personality types in females and males.

Seems like exrovertion is more common in females than males, but that is not what I am interested. Aside from that when you look at the percentages, introverts are more populated in both parties.

Has anyone ever thought:

Why do we feel like everyone’s extroverted around us?

If you have never thought that way, ignore it. 

Not everyone, but the majority of people

I need to hear something that stimulates my brain. I, of course, have an opinion, I may previously have mentioned what I realized about it in the blog, but I want to know what others think about that.

(Note: I know what the function stock is, but I’m trying to understand something here. You are not the creator of the MBTI,  and cannot resurrect Carl Jung to lecture me. Other than that I’m open to any idea. (This particular note is not for those who follow this blog. You guys are cool.)

(Note2: The picture is not mine)

•“Ni” is so dominant that it rules your life.

Intuition > thoughts+feelings.

•Full of empathy but lacking sympathy.

Meaning: Understanding their condition. Seeing things from their point of view but not being able to feel their pain as your own -until you yourself experience a similar incident. You can’t really tell how sorry you are for instance. (I need to explain this in a post like “empathy vs sympathy” because they are interchangeably used.)

•Motto: “I’ll be there for you, but don’t let feelings get involved please.”

•Everyone runs to you to talk about their problems because they know, you would always tell them the truth, but end up being discontent and claim that you’re so cold. Some even ask why I don’t just tell them what they want to hear. (?!)

•Wanting to help others not because I feel sorry them. It’s because I have to correct that particular mistake. Some ridiculous sense of “I’m here on earth to fix things because I know better than them(?!).”

•Superiority complex mixed with the idea of “accept everyone as who they are”.

•Eventually your thoughts and feelings learn to communicate with each other, and yet your thoughts love analyzing your feelings.

•Collecting patterns from every corner of life regarding human behavior or existence. Creating abstract puzzles with the collected data and spending your time solving the puzzle.

•Asking yourself frequently “I understand everything but why can I not relate to any of those?”.

This is just one of my "how would it be like if...?" works.

Considering the dominant functions, I tried to explain how each of them reacts when they are first introduced to an unfamiliar flower via story-like examples. 

I picked the rose flower as the thing external and portrayed it as something special. So, keep it that way while reading. 

None of those examples below are real events nor represent anyone.   

 Case: Imagine a world where roses have never been seen and discovered before.  Nobody knows what it is like. One day, a friend brings you some red roses telling you that those have been recently discovered and called "rose". So now, you know what it is called and how it looks like. 

INFP & INTP THE VISIONARY and THE SCIENTIST (THE INVENTORS)  

P: Perceiving. Sense perceptions.  

There is this phrase which I don’t remember where I heard of "A scientist experiments without anticipating results."  For those two, perception takes place first, and then the imagination process begins. 

There is some chance for both to grab it immediately and be prickled by its thorns, but I preferred not to add that scene.   

 INFP: (Fi) Smelling, seeing or touching the rose may remind them some sort of feeling regardless of having experienced before. It may also take them to a moment in the past, which may create either some relief or sadness.  Besides that, it can also remain a simple Deja-vu experience. All those emotions may lead them to philosophize and subsequently trigger their creativity. 

Example: 

Looks at it and says "It's red like blood". Some feeling occurs. Holds it first and then smells and goes "Oh! That feels like falling in love". Another feeling passes by. Then the thinking process begins. "Blood is life, and this smells like love. Does that mean, you feel lively when you fall in love? If you loved with your fullest potential wouldn't life become more lively and meaningful? Wouldn't you feel happy and content when you have love in your heart? Isn't it your heart that pumps blood to your body already?  So, that means love is life." (I wrote this focusing on how an INFP would verbalize their feelings. May sound weird. No offense.) 

This may evolve into a poem later on. Let's consider the poem is read in a public area, inspires hundreds, and evolves into a social movement or even revolution. Sounds utopic, but still probable. Examples may vary. As the thinking process goes by the result may be a piece of art, a story or even an invention. Perfume for instance.  

 INTP: (Ti) Same story. Someone brings them a bunch of red roses. They use their 5 senses to observe the rose like INFP, but instead of feeling they jump into questioning.   

Example: 

They may compare it to other flowers or an object and begin analyzing to see if they share any similarity. "Have I ever seen something like this before?" "Doesn’t it look like X?" Or no! "Y?" Questions about its scientific classification are likely to be asked. If not known, they will do some research. (object classification)

They may do various experiments on the flower. The shape of its petals may inspire them so much that it may lead them to come up with an idea, then the idea will turn into something bigger, such as an invention.  An INTP would like to know about every single detail about this new flower from its chemical composition to its architecture. Eureka moments are likely to happen.  

  INXJs: THE PSYCHICS (just kidding) THE FORESEERS 

Those who are able to think, visualize, theorize and foresee with less need of their 5 senses. 

INXJs: (Ni Dominant) (Days before the friend comes by.) Unaware of the discovery of the rose, they are reading a book where the lead character is eager to find the most interesting flower in the world. Then, they take a break and ask themselves "How would it look like if I found a unique flower?" (J: Judging) 

Let's say what they visualize is something rose-like. (In some cases, that may be almost identical to a rose.) The book itself or any other source may have an impact on the visualized unique flower. Besides appearance, the functionality and other traits of an interesting flower can be thought.   

Days after someone brings them roses stating that those have recently been discovered. Curious about their opinion the person asks "How do you like them?" 

Ni dominant: Shocked. However, they somehow keep a calm manner. 

"Oh! Those are really nice." Then questions begin to shower. Who discovered them? When/where were they discovered? How? How many people are aware of those new flowers so far? Do they have any benefits or harms for human kind? Has it been researched yet? And so on. (Judging) 

Inferior Se: Instead grasping the object they first ask questions. They also may not want to touch something they aren't familiar with. The assistance of senses is temporarily postponed –the sight may still be active. (visual perception)
