Thank you for that. But unfortunately not everyone is like that. We're like spiderman and many others are like J.J. Jameson.Oh, everyone trusts my girlfriend.
Actually, everyone wants her as a best friend or something. You guys are so amiable and stuff.
I only care if that person MATTERS to me.Does that bother you though?
Personally, I don't care about other people's opinions of me, as long as they have their facts right about me in the first place.
He seems to feel bad about the trouble that's escalated from the original rumours, like he thinks it's his fault. Which it isn't.
Thus the bane of my existence.... I have this issue as well.I can see that; people who aren't naturally altruistic won't understand people (ENFPs) who naturally are. But I am a very open and honest, "this is me whether you like it or not" type person, so I've always been seen as very trustworthy.
However, despite how trustworthy I am, I can be a pretty suspicious person. It's like I have a really hard time believing that other people are as upright and honest as I am, especially if they are more private, less direct by nature. (On the other hand, sometimes I'll trust people too quickly, due to my enthusiasm over a common interest or viewpoint, for example.)
I see what you mean. I guess that's why we are gathered here on Per C so much! LOLAnything that requires me being punctual, reliably consistent, and constantly serious will result in me being overlooked. Fair enough, I guess. Those are not my strong points. Still hurts, though, because I take it personally. Hey, I could try!
I've also found that it makes a big difference what personality type we are talking about. Conformists won't trust me, because I'm not a conformist myself. I do follow the major rules, though; I'm not a total anarchist. But they'll just assume that I'm irresponsible altogether, which is not true. Or very serious people will think that, because I inject humour into situations, that I can't be trusted with more serious issues. That's also not true. I take people's problems very seriously, but I just find that my own way of looking at things requires me to see it from all sides--one of which is the funny side. Being funny does not mean you are any less able to solve serious problems. In fact, I find it has the opposite effect and long before serious people are finished debating I've figured out what to do and I'm wondering why they can't see it.
Ironically, people who are "rebels" tend to reject me, because I don't conform to their particular standards of rebellion.
I can get along with pretty much anyone, but I'm never accepted as "one of them". *shrug* I guess I'm not.
Mainly the conformist issue and the issue regarding being serious.Haha, which issue? I think I listed like 3
AND YET YOU QUESTION ME AT EVERY TURN!Hmm, I don't believe I become suspicious of healthy ENFP's. I can't say the healthy ENFP's I know are perceived as having alternative motives, but I have known one or two of them to be flagged as too nice too quickly. That flag usually is taken off in a timely manner.
