#because we're always so preoccupied with how other people perceive us and might misinterpret our words and it can be debilitating

ESFJ teaching university
INFJ: What kind of course are you teaching this semester? What is it about?
ESFJ: Do you remember ENTP‘s class we had together before the pandemic? We wanted to conduct this experiment with the whole class, but ENTP never followed through with it. And I read up on it and found out that ENTP actually missed some aspects that should be considered in the experimental design, so now I‘m going to do it, but better and actually follow through with the experiment.
INFJ: So, you’re basically fixing ENTP’s previous mistakes, but with new students? 
ISFP: You are such a nerd.
ESFJ: The young students today missed so much due to online classes when it comes to scientific methods and INTP can‘t save all of them. I owe it to the young generation to educate them properly like INTP educated us.
ISFP: Following in her footsteps?
ESFJ: Some day, I hope so. I’m not as good as INTP yet and I’m still new to teaching.
INFJ: But you’ll get there. 
#i saw them again for the first time in over 2 years and i‘m a bit emotional#they still are the cutest couple on the planet and they made me sit between the two of them and i love them and wish i could see them more#and i love how deep all our gratitude towards our former intp professor runs cause she singlehandedly made us all who we are academically#also little anecdote: i think it's quite funny how most of the socially anxious people i know are fjs like the esfj here or me as an infj#because we're always so preoccupied with how other people perceive us and might misinterpret our words and it can be debilitating#like esfj is such a good guy like the absolute best person out there and he beats himself up about the simplest of things he did#but he's always very vocal about it like immediately afterwards when he's filled with regret over his words#and it's so adorable cause he's always so scared of accidentally hurting people which he usually isn't because we all know him#but then i look at myself also always regretting my own words out of fear of accidentally hurting people#but i'm not vocal about it i'll just play it over and over in my head scared that people were hurt and just don't say anything#and it's reminding me that it's good to come together with other people#and not just learn from each other like me learning from esfj that it's okay to vocalise my regret about my choice of words etc.#but also to learn to view myself the way i view other people that are like me and esfj in this respect#and that way realise that it's completely unnecessary to beat myself up about stuff just like it's unnecessary how they beat themselves up#i just think it's important and i need to be around people more and i know i'm rambling again i'm sorry i'll stop now have a good night#mbti#mbti conversations#esfj#isfp#infj
