His completely effortless normality is very attractive to me because it’s opposite to my traits so it’s very comforting in the balance. If I dated another INTJ that would probably implode from anxiety lol.
Yea i forgot about ENFPs. Thing is with those types and also ESFPs, they are all super cool but also extroverted and crave physical as opposed to theoretical action. We would go out and do sht every night and it could be fun, but draining. Not sure I know any other INTJs irl or online. I like very feminine women, submissive even, which I would assume an INTJ woman is not. I like soft feeley female types. Think really fkn hot nurses.

My INTJ gf literally remembers every last fuking slight she ever felt from somebody else. I can see why she wants to avoid people. She's basically the exact opposite of me. I'd literally rather kill myself than live in such a panicked, judgmental state of mind. Idk how she does it. It seems fukinghorrible/10. There's not a chance in Hell she could be with someone else like her.

You are always giving them attention and tending to their needs and there is no time or peace for quiet contemplation or solitude. You have to be continually n giving mode and caretaking mode.

Of course I would have done my utmost best to be the best mom possible, but it would be out of moral duty, not from any natural maternal nurturing instinct. And I think I would have secretly regretted having kids. If my ex had wanted them I would have done it for him though.
I'm totally fine with it because I don't have an interest in kids, at least not in the near future. I think being a mother would be EXTREMELY draining for her. She needs tons of alone time and solitude.

Generally when someone types "if you are autism" instead of "if you are autistic", I assume they are autistic.

So rest assured OP. You are Autism.

That's how me & my gf are. I don't think it could really work, otherwise. She's also one of the most hilarious people I've ever met. Her brain works the opposite of mine so she really gets me to ponder things, see "systems" or patterns in people or events I otherwise wouldn't notice, & majorly LOL at certain perspectives she has on chit

So that’s one end of the spectrum and the other end are relatively normal or high functioning people who are just “off” socially.
At one time I was a psych minor and took Abnormal Psychology, which is where all these labels are from, and the professor said pretty bluntly that all the disorders she was going to talk about really are present in all people but not to a degree that drastically affects their life. Its when someone has such a problem that a label has to be applied so that person is fit into something.. can you imagine if we didn't have these labels, it'd be like the old days where they called them all retarded and put them in a special "training school." The labels are mostly from the DSM, which is just a way for insurance, doctors, the medical community, etc to put people that have real problems, into categories and to communicate what these people have. Taking these things and saying there's a spectrum and that you might "have it" is counter productive to the whole notion of psych which is to help people. Not cause problem by getting people to think they have some disorder. The new medical approach is a multi faceted paradigm that doesn't focus as much on what the label illness is. They still use it, like I said for billing etc, but each person is so different that a specialized approach is needed for each person that have real mental illnesses.

cliff is we all have problems (who is perfect?). Don't try and label your problems as a disorder unless its so bad its taking over your life.

Found that was one of the interesting things in my research splurge (don't think it's been mentioned yet) - they really don't seem to give you a diagnosis unless you say it's negatively affecting your life. Kinda does and doesn't make sense to me, but I think one good way to look at it is as benign autism/whatever disorder, a la a benign tumor.
