Is that Elric of Melnibone I see as your avatar?

I've had 'aloof' levelled at me a lot but sometimes I find it's code for, "I don't get you so I've decided that you're a puzzle". Still, if it's working for you, nice.

Yes, I agree about thought/emotion. I think there is something that's captured by the T/F dichotomy in MBTI but 'thought' and 'feeling' are the wrong words for it, much like J vs. P.

I don't know if my problem is that there aren't enough hours in the day so much as that there are too many days all rolled into one, such that I have to choose a shape from many possibilities in order to share time with others in realspace. For the most part I'm doing the things I want to, though. Money constrains more than time.

I liked the way you said it, it was simultaneously warm and hilarious.

Yes, exactly that. It's an idea I've been playing with a bit, though, that 'romantic' isn't a fixed and clear idea for everyone, but varies. The 'rose frame' being the one we learn to look for. Uprooted and fixed rather than growing in the earth.

I got here a while ago thinking I was an INTJ because of the stereotype that INTPs don't get things done. By the time I figured it out, my seatbelt was already on.

Maybe she wasn't really a bunny.

I don't know, your INTP may just be young and skittish. My take is we don't really do what we consider 'games' and what some others seem to think is given as 'subtle romance'. We're slow to move but if an INTP is interested in you and you're not looking through rose-frames, you'll know.

Whose realms?

The humour.

I am slain.

too bad, I'll have to read it someday I guess

I shed in tears seeing so long text seriously don't have a summary?

This guy writes really well. I read several of his pieces. Thanks!
