Why Can't/Don't INTjs Just Get Over it Already?
Yeah. Why don't we? Or maybe it is just me. Individual sob story blow by blow details don't really matter, but when I've lost things that were really important to me, I spent a lot of time either utterly paralyzed or flopping about and gasping like a fish on the beach. Once the initial horror is over, it really takes me years to get over it.. I think everyone does this when something devastating enough happens, but it seems like others tend to move on in a reasonable amount of time, or maybe, like me, they are just incredibly good at hiding it. For an idea of how often, and what sort of events, I can think of 3 times this has happened to me. Once, was over a job. In the end, because I basically felt like a hollow shell, that one also cost me my relationship with the only man I have ever truly loved. I fell out of love with him, because my heart was shattered. I felt like the old me was dead. The other two, ill-considered relationships (to sum up in a word: burn). You would think that as rarely as I let someone into my heart that I would be more careful about who I choose. Basically, on the rare occasions when I have made myself vulnerable, and got burned, my recovery has been very slow.
