Are you proud to be a senser?
whatever... it's all the same. I'm not proud anymore than I'm dissapointed.
I could sense that.Quote:

No.
It's ok, you'll learn to love yourself .... or die trying. =D
I wish I'm a sensor so that I wouldn't keep bumping into things, be excellent in sports, and be alert to my surroundings.
Me too. Wish I were a sensor.Quote:

I like soccer though, but I'm not particularly good at it, or any other sport.
lol, it very much does actually. :lol: I come here every day and leave thinking, "hmmm, I'm pretty happy to be me." I often feel that some people just can't think this of themselves here. I find it sad really.Quote:

I'm an N, and there's something strange because...I bump into things at home all the time and I don't know where I have placed my keys etc etc and I also always drop little things when I'm moving - but the moment I play sports, my hand-eye coordination becomes good and I'm hyperalert - I haven't seen any difference between me and the sensors I know in this matter (except that they are slightly better at shooting whereas I am better at carrying the ball/dribbling), some of the are worse, the very talented ones are better, i've played team sports and my performance depended a lot on which team I was in, but I was very good at basketball, but also way too short to have any hope so when I was 16 they just flat out told me that even if I was good I wouldn't have gone any far, then I tried dancing+cycling, but the first was gay even if I was good, the second I was very good again but mmh, I didn't want to become impotent
(btw, I know an ENFj which is a very good rugby player, an INFp which is a skater/basketball player, an ENFp which is a GREAT soccer player (one of the best I've ever seen), two ENTps basketball player that are in a A-level team...)
I think that whole "If you're not an N you are terrible at sports" is a bunch of horse shit.
You meant if you're an N?Quote:

I didn't have a girlfriend at the time, but I still got scared and decided that wasn't the route I wanted to pursue.Quote:

Cognitive functions play a role, but stuff like athletic aptitude comes down a lot to genetics.Quote:

Thanks FDG.
There should be an option expressing indifference.
Just cuz you're a sensor doesn't mean you're good at anything.
or maybe the S in ISFP isn't helpful in sports, i cannot be sure, but i am a massive phailure in basketball.
I used to want to be a sensor big time. This was before I knew about type. I just knew I was different from most everyone else except for a few kids here and there at school. I felt it was some sort of wierd trade off. My brothers were good at sports and seemed to fit into the real world and so did my parents and I was off in La La land wondering when I was going to get my script so I'd know what to say. I couldnt even understand the joy they got from certain activities which left me cold. As I got older I started to see some real advantage of being intuitive but I think it all evens out in the end.
heh.Quote:
