Hi! I read your message about being a LPC and was wondering if you could tell me more about the process? I'm considering being a counselor too, and I'm wondering, do you enjoy your career? Why didn't you go to be a LCSW?
Thanks so much
This probably sums up the struggles between my boyfriend and me. Being and INFJ, I can understand most of his behavior, and I relate to most of his behavior. Oftentimes, I find myself feeling that, even though we're a committed couple, he still thinks in terms of him being single. He says he wants to anticipate my needs, but I think he has a really hard time with this, because he doesn't know how to make decisions or go about daily life with me in his mind. He lives so far in his own head that he doesn't realize how important actions and words can be. I try to be supportive and communicative. It does bother me most times, but I love him, and for all the bad, there is infinitely more good, and I believe that he will continue to learn how to think outside of himself as our relationship grows and time goes on. I try to meet in the middle and remind myself that INTJ's are extremely loyal, even if their words and actions don't always prove it to be so.
I have to say, I agree with everything you said on the INTJs and Religion thread. I just don't get it too. But apparently most people don't get us either, so go figure!
