Over the past few weeks, my conversations with different groups of friends somehow always involved the Myers Briggs test. I didn't think this test is always a true indicator of one's personality even though I majored in Psychology.
Because of these conversations, I have been reading more about personalities and relationships (hadn't done that since graduated from school). Friend Jade introduced me to a book called "The Witch of Portobello". I found an idea from the book that's quite interesting and got me thinking about the subject further. It says "...extroverts are unhappier than introverts and have to compensate for this by constantly proving to themselves how happy and contented and at ease with life they are."
In the web2.0 world, it's so easy to channel these "happy and contented" messages across. It also reminds me of an article written about a Facebook friend of mine - So open it hurts.
In addition, I also read an article about types of women that men avoid. One of them is "The Party Girl" type of women - "It's hard to have a healthy relationship with a person who is masking major problems underneath his or her party hat. Plus, we all know that people who can't amuse themselves without mind-altering substances just aren't any fun when the party is over."
Sounds familiar...
What do you think?
