Welp, I'm incapable of intimacy

[Brilliand]

Hmm... I think there are some parts of the relationship that you could have managed yourself. Under Model T, your constructivist nature means that you would determine when emotions are brought into play; I imagine this would manifest as some half-assed attempt that the ISFp responds to with real emotions. Well, maybe that's it.

That first quote reminds me of the unhealthy 7 description. If you're a 7, have a look at the Enneagram 7 growth recommendations and see if they help. Although the 7's need sounds sort of like , I'm not sure this is something an ISFp can do for you. Maybe she can help you along, if you keep her nearby while you help yourself.

If you aren't a Seven, do you have any idea where "you can't enjoy it because you are so worried that you won't" came from?

UGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Screw it. I'm going to be a hermit.

I feel more depressed after reading this thread.

Right there with you. Pretty sure I screwed up what would have been a pretty sweet relationship with an ESE because of the inability to correctly deal with intimacy (that sounds very 'robotic' but I can't explain it any better).

Awww.

Look on the bright side, ethical males are even worse misfits.

Duality isn't magical, unfortunately.

How about logical females? Guys get all up in your emotional grill and you just want them to btfo.

I appreciate the logical females.

Trust me.

To be sure, I was never comfortable enough around her to prompt those things very aggressively, but I did try to prompt them.

Enneagram...yeah I'm like a 6w7 or something. What she said is 100% true though. I couldn't have said it any better.
