As a ISTP I'm pretty good at noticing what the person feels or his intentions when he says something. Problem is once I know this info, I fail to handle it for my advantage.
Example:
Scenario: Drinking alcohol at a house party with 15 people, and you can clearly notice some girls attracted to me.
X: bro why dont you drink alcohol?
Me: because I'm on diet, you know this muscles don't come without sacrifice.
X: You are a pussy!
Ok. So it's pretty much clear that the guy has a inferiority complex and specially when around girls, guys tend to alpha male other guys and tease more often. Specially if they are jealous or intimidated by your presence.
Problem is that I fail to handle this situations even though I know HIS intentions and end up being quiet which makes me feel like shit. And I really envy people how are quick and witty with comebacks and leave this guy in a bad place with a simple comeback.
Whats the best mentality or way to deal with this as a ISTP?
Ignoring is not the solution, tested first hand experience because they take you for granted and keep comming at you. And it sucks to know WHY they do it and not be able to handle and shut down the situation.
Cheers
