People who know me on lesswrong tend to tell me that I come across very differently in person than I do online. I think they are right although I suspect that my personal interactions with people here (few though they may be) are rather similar to who I interact in person in the ‘real world’.
I know from experience that acting like a typical INFP in an online environment where INFP is rare is a recipe for disaster—it just doesn’t work. I also find that I am best served by rationing my lesswrong interactions and keeping them balanced by interactions with INFP friends (and lovers). Too much dealing with “Js” just gets tiresome. I actually suspect I’ll take another hiatus from here soon and get my intellectual stimulation from the textbooks and papers on my to-read queue for a while.
I wonder if some of your personality dimensions fluctuate or are on the border. For me, the E/I fluctuates and so does the F/T. I’m always an N and P. Are you right on the line between T and F?
I’m very close to the line on T/F, fairly close to the line on E/I.

This makes INFP sound a lot like Elliezer.
Good point. That’s likely to make it harder to discover Fs here.
Aww. ): I hope you’ll still talk to me.
