When I'm walking or driving with someone else, I often sink so deeply into the conversation and "forgot" where we are heading.

The other person will often ask "Is this the right way?" or "Where are we going?"

Does this happen to you?

 

[Halcy0n]

All the time.

I'm such a space cadet that I'll spend ten minutes trying to find, say my brush, only to find out that it was in my hand the whole time.

My poor ISTJ momma...bwahahaha. :laughing:

Basically, yes. But I can't--or really don't like to--drive with a lot of distractions, anyway. I mean, half the time, it seems, I end up taking myself somewhere I never inteded to go even when I'm driving alone.

hahaha this made me chuckle hard. i also have an ISTJ momma and i know i caused her grief growing up doing stuff like this. my ADD has caused me severe disadvantages in life, especially when it comes to concerning myself with details. that's how come i can't give a speech without pausing every two minutes to try to remember what i want to say.

I get so wrapped up in conversation, in the other person, the rest of the world melts away. I forget to be self-conscious, I forget that I might be bothering people because I'm too loud (yes, *I'm* that obnoxious person), I forget where I am and what I'm doing.

One of my best friends is an ISTJ and it drives her mad all the details I miss, all the ridiculous things I do, how inefficient I am. She definitely balances out all P and NF tendencies I have (a lot).

 

[Hammerhand]

If i really enjoy the conversation, yeah. Then i stop caring for other details, such as time, place, appointments, etc.

 

[Stallout]

Oh yeah, definitely. I get wrapped up in conversation and walk the opposite direction of my next class at times!
