    I've dated.. INFj, ESTp, ESFj, ENFj, ISFj, and I'm going out with an ENFp (I think?) now; sooo all the other ones?

    Edit: My current gf is INFp! BIG ERROR! (it definitely seems that way, a lot...)

    I've dated SEE, ILE, SLE and ILI.

    Order of compatibility ranked lowest to highest - ILE, SLE, ILI/SEE .

    It doesn't bother me that much tbh. However, there is a sort of disconnect that you increasingly feel between yourself and your age group (actually everybody if you dwell on it too much). IDK it was much worse when I was a virgin still (I didn't lose that until my mid/late 20s) and still is there a bit. I'm not sure how to put it into words, something along the lines of this... because of the total lack of experience you feel like you have no place or nothing to say as your friends are all discussing their relationships and dating practices, etc. You feel as though you can't honestly say, "yeah I know what you mean" and stuff like that, because, well... you really don't. Then, because of media and, well, just society in general, you also have to face the fact that even the majority of older teens have more experience in that stuff than you do.

    Eventually I realized how little this really matters, but I have to admit that it's still there in the back of my head. It's something that makes me really nervous about attempting to get into relationships too, because I feel as though I need to be upfront about it, but that I'll be seen as weird, childish, not appealing in some way to others of my age.

    sigh... it's one of those things that I'm sure means nothing (or very little) from the outside looking in, but when you're stuck in that position it can really make you feel isolated and ummm idk... broken.

    awwww. <3333 i totally empathize with this, especially the "broken" part. i used to describe myself like that all the time.
    i've gone through a new life phase (maybe it's the prozac- I have no idea), in which I don't feel so "flawed," but i do feel.....idk.... like, probabilistically, I'll be single for the rest of my life. I mean, if I wanted to, I could probably get a boyfriend. But I can't really force myself to "just date" anyone. And I never really like people. That's sort of hard to explain. I really like EVERYONE. I'm like "oh this person is interesting," etc. But, I NEVER think "oh I'd like to date this guy." Everyone just seems generic? after a while.
    AND the 2 or so guys per year that I do "fall in love" with are always ones I BARELY know- like the guy who I see on the subway sometimes. Ugh. It's like I'm Amelie. Except there's never the happy ending.
    Because I'm too shy. OR when I try to be assertive I just come off WAY too strong and turn the guy into a one night stand. OR he's really into me and I get instantly repulsed. OR I think he's boring because idk most people are? OR I just know he's not someone I can see myself with long term. OR I'm scared he's too good for me and I blow him up into some deity and can barely stutter in his presence.
    Bleh.

    Ritella sounds like ..... a lot of INFjs I know here.

    They seem to think that relationships never change, in terms of being single. "omg omg i'm going to die old and single", .... but I think that's just because they see themselves ultimately as unable to initiate and sustain a relationship. Lol, and then these "patterns" and "past examples" create a "likliehood" that nothing will ever "change".... it's very self defeating.

    So they sort of just sit around waiting for someone to do something about it.... which is, actually, appealing from my perspective. Not that I like the idea of a person feeling lonely or helpless, but that I like to be the person that "does something about it".

    I think, ultimately, I am a picky bitch who deserves to die alone.
    Some people are selective, but sometimes it's also a matter of unrealistic expectations from other people and a somewhat aggrandized view of oneself. There is a difference between waiting for someone you are really compatible with, and, standing back thinking you are totally awesome and everyone else is just shit, thus leading to disappointment and/or a skewed sense of compatibility.

    Not saying you are particularly one or the other, though. I advocate, strongly, the former of those two options. The latter is not really any different than its inverted form - thinking you suck too much to be in a relationship. Both of those things require some self improvement before you can even step into a relationship feasibly, anyways.
    Posts I wrote in the past contain less nuance.
    If you're in this forum to learn something, be careful. Lots of misplaced toxicity.

    umm.. which type haven't i "dated" according to this definition "let's define "dating" as getting to know someone...."
    ENTj, ESTj, ESFj, ISFj, ISTj, INTj, INFj, ESFp, INTp

    you made me realize i've dated almost all irrationals.

    but i've only been in a relationship with a ENFj(3 torturous years) and ENTp(on-going, though i'm not entirely sure of his type. but ILE is what i think now).

    ENFps are the best to hang out with so far. umm, i mean to date. they're accepting people, fun, etc. i dunno, but it confuses me why they chose to hang out with me.

    According to some other posts, that's not the case.

    If it makes you feel any better, I've also not ever had a bf before. Offers, though. But just those guys who, you know, no one would want to be with anyway....

    About what UDP said.

    This is what a certain IJ-Ne said to me about finding a bf.

    "I'm just about ready to get a man. I haven't been in a relationship for seven years. I'm happy about my life and I have two cats and a horse. But it's like I have this thing inside of me screaming for something." ... "What do you mean my life would change? Everything would be the same as before. I would have everything I had before. I would just ALSO have a boyfriend."
    First eliminate every possible source of error. Thence success is inevitable.

    HmmI am this way too. I have had a horrible ISTP BF, and one sort-of friend /BF ISFp. I was not in love with either one. Other people I have actuially "fallen in love with" tend to be totally out of reach socially, or literally (such as living on the other side of the world). I mean, I am a real mess when it comes to understanding the reality of an actual relationship vs my idealized version of someone.

    This causes me GREAT pain, and wastes sooo much of my time. I think I'm gonna die alone too blah...

Everything will disappear. And what human beings do is just as free of sense as the free motion of elementary particles. Good, evil, morality, feelings? Pure 'Victorian fictions'.

I mean, if I wanted to, I could probably get a boyfriend. But I can't really force myself to "just date" anyone. And I never really like people. That's sort of hard to explain. I really like EVERYONE. I'm like "oh this person is interesting," etc. But, I NEVER think "oh I'd like to date this guy." Everyone just seems generic? after a while.
    AND the 2 or so guys per year that I do "fall in love" with are always ones I BARELY know- like the guy who I see on the subway sometimes. Ugh. It's like I'm Amelie. Except there's never the happy ending.
    Because I'm too shy. OR when I try to be assertive I just come off WAY too strong and turn the guy into a one night stand. OR he's really into me and I get instantly repulsed. OR I think he's boring because idk most people are? OR I just know he's not someone I can see myself with long term. OR I'm scared he's too good for me and I blow him up into some deity and can barely stutter in his presence.
    Bleh.
    I think, ultimately, I am a picky bitch who deserves to die alone.
    I'm convinced I'm going to be alone for the rest of my life as well. I think I it might be for my own good, as well as the sanity of any poor soul I might date.

    All I need is couple of cats and I'm set for life.

    I'll tell you what
    there is plenty wrong with me
    but I fixed up a few old buildings
    and I've planted a few trees.

    Cats bad.

    What you need is positive thinking and/or an LSE.

    Nope. Nothing about him is appealing, not in the slightest.

    Aw! Listen, there is nothing wrong with being selective. Relationships are serious business (to me at least). What you said reminds me a lot of my ILI friend (also, Amelie is her favorite movie and I know that she relates to her character a lot). But some guy will like her and she will over think the whole thing to death and freak herself out and end up avoiding him forever.
    In any case, I am an advocate of taking things slow so that you get to really know someone before making any sort of commitment and/or if things start to go awry you can back out without being too emotionally invested and thus preserve your feelings a bit, heh.
    Climb the mountains and get their good tidings. Nature's peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees. The winds will blow their own freshness into you, and the storms their energy, while cares will drop off like autumn leaves.

IDK it was much worse when I was a virgin still (I didn't lose that until my mid/late 20s) and still is there a bit. I'm not sure how to put it into words, something along the lines of this... because of the total lack of experience you feel like you have no place or nothing to say as your friends are all discussing their relationships and dating practices, etc. You feel as though you can't honestly say, "yeah I know what you mean" and stuff like that, because, well... you really don't. Then, because of media and, well, just society in general, you also have to face the fact that even the majority of older teens have more experience in that stuff than you do.

    Eventually I realized how little this really matters, but I have to admit that it's still there in the back of my head. It's something that makes me really nervous about attempting to get into relationships too, because I feel as though I need to be upfront about it, but that I'll be seen as weird, childish, not appealing in some way to others of my age.

    sigh... it's one of those things that I'm sure means nothing (or very little) from the outside looking in, but when you're stuck in that position it can really make you feel isolated and ummm idk... broken.

    Hah...so I'm not alone after all I forgot what I did a search for just now, but I stumbled upon this thread and BG/Ritella pretty much sum up my sentiments here, heh (especially Ritella's bit about falling for people you barely know ). Reading this makes me feel a lot better about my own situation at least :wink: Mhmmm...I think I shall embrace my celibacy and become a monk

    Have not dated:

    Alphas: LII

    Betas: EIE, LSI, SLE, IEI

    Gammas: SEE, ILI, LIE

    Deltas: SLI

    Interesting, I've dated most types in alpha and delta. And no betas. Never thought of that.

    All of them. I'm a prude so I don't date unless I intend to marry.
