Reading about your wife and your shopping tactics in the same post makes me think you used a heat-seeking missile method to woo and win her.


No, not really. By mormon standards we took our sweet time. I knew her for a while before dating, (we even disagree on what constituted our "first date", since we hung out and did stuff as friends - she claims she first asked me out, while I didn't even think that was a real "date") and then dated exclusively for a year before engagement, then about a six month engagement.

ETA: I guess I didn't see dating or marriage as "shopping" for someone.


Well, I'm "shoplifting marriage" because I cohabitate, so that means I can easily conclude that in order to be married, one must first shop.

Cohabitation=shoplifting of marriage. Marriage=shopping with intent to purchase.

Shopping is a bad metaphor for my P-ness (*snerk*), because I despise shopping. Despise it with a white-hot flaming fury. Shopping makes me suicidal, homicidal, comatose, and manic all at the same time. There are two exceptions to this: Music stores and Book stores, in which I can spend HOURS.

I don't know if it was meant to be shopping, necessarily, but how to respond in a crisis - if you're okay without having a plan.

I am definitely someone who doesn't like to shop, I like to go in, get what I need and leave (with some exceptions). The people who need to go to 6 stores to find something? and in the end, go back to the first store and get the first pair of shoes they looked at? Drive me a little nuts.

Well, feel free to go to 6 stores, just don't expect me to go along with you!

:lol:

Amen, brutha. If I'm allowed to wander into a bookstore, you may never see me again.

Yeah, it's kinda funny that we're both gay for the same things. Except being gay. Go figure. :-D

If there were four different initials for "introverted," that's how I'd score.


Reading this old thread made me super sad and nostalgic. Except for MizD's old post ^^^ which made me LOL.

(WC, still ENTP, very borderline on the E and the T.)

I found this very interesting and can relate to some of it. I thought other INTJs may find it interesting also.
