i appear like an Nt, and can act like one to a certain degree, obviously not enough, but i can be like one a bit...

i was kinda joking, but also serious about this if you know what i mean?

thoughts?

You'll be fine.

It's when you discover that you have many of the symptoms of being an NT and that it explains every odd quirk or symptom or issue you have ever had and have never been able to explain (such as a constant need to stand around the water cooler at work gossiping) that you need to worry.

But don't fear because there are therapies out there that can help you to cope with suffering from NT Disorder even if it can't be cured.

(PN I am attempting humour with this post!)

On a side note, in water cooler situations how the water cooler actually works is usually more fascinating then the conversation going on around it.

And feeling the need to look at people in the eye and wanting them too look at you in the eye and feeling the need to be around others and chit chat and do small talk about stuff you don't care about. You hate to be alone and always want to go out and socialize and be with people and talk about anything going on in the world and in your personal lives and do gossip.

NT's seem to forget that my ears on the side of my head and that I don't need to be looking directly at their eyes to hear what they are saying.

I do entire transactions at the local shop without looking at the checkout person once! However I can tell you what's on the display near the till when I go there to pay lol.

This thread is hilarious. :lol:

You might be an NT if you would prefer to talk about the new shoes you bought over theoretical physics.

Y'know, thinking about it, you can get a decent conversation out of talking about shoes. Aesthetic. Practicality. That sort of thing. Without getting into fashion, which is just stupid.
