So I found this in the INFP section and thought it would be useful for my fellow INTJS. Courtesy of Nova.

Take issue with something going on in society?

Having a bad day?

Have something on your mind that wont go away?

Experience something so fabulous you just have to express it?


Post your vent here!



+ And a friendly reminder to please be respectful to other members and leave your baggage at the door.

I should be worried about only sleeping 3-4 hours a night these days.

But I'm not... I've never felt more energetic before. *shrugs*

Why won't this LEAVE MY FUCKING MIND. Honestly. I'd like to stick a drill through my fucking brain right now for being so stupid. :dry:
Yup. I've had those days. Sometimes it's a week. Even brains came be such tiresome things...

So here's my rant.

When I join a new clique (which is often, as I have frequently moved during my life) at frist I'm quiet and observe the social tendancies of the group. After a week or so, I "open up" and fit right in. However, as time goes on I feel like I'm hiding who I truely am from everyone, though I let it show in snippets. Only with people I've known my entire life am I completely open with, yet even then I get called an over-analytical prick at times.
It's nothing personal, people!! Seriously! I just want to be myself and not be written off as an unfeeling little b!tch. Sometimes I just say things that I've noticed, then people get all offended or defencive because no one seems to know how my mind works. Often, people think I'm trying to argue when in fact I'm just making a simple statement of fact. I'm not trying to refute them, just set them straight. And if I'm wrong, I'm quite okay with them setting me straight so I'm not wrong again. As far as in person, I don't think I've ever met a fellow INTJ. It sux.
This is why I like this site so much: my type is affixed right next in my info over there <--
It's great because I don't have to make excuses for saying things that are coldly objective or perhaps a bit cynical. People know I'm not being mean, I'm just stating what I think and if it's criticism it is of the constructive sort. Oh, but if only everyone had a little bubble above their head dipicting their type so we could all just freely be ourselves right from the get-go.

I hate putting my feelings out there and then not knowing what the fuck to do with them. Sometimes I wish my Fi would just fuck off.

Calling off the wedding was the single best thing I have done for myself in a very long time.

I feel like a massive weight has been lifted from my shoulders. I'm glad he understands.

WOW. I am writing something good.....in a venting thread. Smexy Steve from from telstra spent two hours of his work time fixing the problems with Telstra. Yeah Tesltra really sucks hardcore anus....but just sometimes there is a person who cares enough to help the customer....mwah Steve.

I refused my stepfather to buy me a new laptop for obvious reasons....I don't like charity....but the strangest thing happened...I got a phone call to visit them and they had this sexy looking acer laptop for me....I am in shock and bliss at the same time:crazy:

Damn laundry will still flood....oh well.

I am awake at 6 in the morning on a Sunday, and this is how it happened: At 5 o'clock I was wakened by music, which my flatmate had on so loudly I heard it through two doors and across a corridor. I went to knock on his door and the music stopped abruptly. I think it was one of these radio alarm clocks. I had just dozed off again, when at 6 someone rang the bell - about 10 times I think. It is rather loud. I decided I could as well go and look who was there, and, if possible, strangle him for inconsiderateness. However, until I had crossed the yard to the gate he was gone.

I seem to be surrounded by idiots.

/end rant

Might as well do something with the time I gained...


Edit: It turned out my flatmate, who works in security, overslept, and his coworkers came here at 6 to inquire after him. Just now he has been woken up by the police. Somehow, he was neither woken by the extremely loud music in his room, nor by my knocking on the door, nor by the constant ringing of the doorbell.

I decided to (try to) suck up all the negative emanating from my unaware (ISFJ) wife....doing nice things, saying nice things, smiling, being attentive and giving hugs and kisses.........aiming to conquer the emotional and physical 5 year divide between us. All she wants is stability and money.

And like an echo, I am telling myself "you cannot change her, you cannot change her, you cannot expect her to change"....and my Fi is all out of whack, my mind caught in a circular maze....

I have a doctorate dissertation to write and I can barely sit down at my computer to do ONE thing for more than 10 or 15 minutes.....

The INTJ in me rears its beautiful head and monotones, "leave her".

But we have two young children which she has said and shown that she cannot take care of alone due to her inability to deal with stress.

During a regular day at a regular moment...I get on the verge of tears sometimes. What the hell?? I have to break free. How do I break free?
