I'm a low-drama person but I would not say that I do not have sharp edges. I'm just less demonstrative about them than others seem to be.I have heard this more than once, sometimes as a good thing, sometimes as a bad thing. I have no sharp edges, I am not a dramatic person, rarely cause fuss yada yada.
I agree that I'm not a very extreme person. Or at least, I'm not overt about my extremes.My current gf joked that I'm not normal because I am too normal (well she likes it) and that normal people can't be that normal. This crossed my mind a few times, that I find no extremes in my character and in general I dislike any kind of extremes to begin with. Is Delta averse to extremes of any kind or is it more of an individual thing? I know some Deltas that have eating disorders (a few Delta NF's) or are sleeping around too much, but that's about it. I am not talking only about habits though, I'm more talking about character.
I could see the "too normal to be normal" angle. There are a lot of things people do I think are weird but when I mention them I get the weird looks instead.
I think where Delta's weirdness usually comes across is that we're all independent-minded in a disconnected and possibly free-spirited way. Even I can admit that there's a paradoxically young-mind but old-soul quality to how we focus on our inner fulfillment and self-satisfaction at the expense of a more enterprising, engaging, or glamorous lifestyle. Which influences our tendency to be thoughtlessly zen about things others see as a "big deal" and makes us seem small-minded as a result. Never mind that we also have our highly personal pet issues and projects that we can get worked up over as well.
Regardless, every quadra has their image burdens to deal with. Being considered boring or normal is hardly bothersome.
