Just wanted to thank all the people who communicated with me during the short time that I was here and let you know why I suddenly disappear. Tomorrow I finish house-sitting and move back to my off-grid living place in the bush. And I also found that I'm quite addicted to information seeking on the ... |

Shepherd would be something for you, I guess. You are alone with your sheep and dogs all day, every day. Hmm, shepherd -- that's not a bad idea; thanks for that suggestion! I see you also clean houses self-employed; yes, that's what I've been doing. It's great when nobody is home, but can be tortur... |

INFJ strongly introvert (78%) moderately intuitive (25%) moderate preference for feeling (25%) slight preference for Judging (22%) I was surprised how well the description fits, didn't expect that. But a few of the questions were difficult to answer, may have to test again to see if the percentage v... |

You are very insightful Chickenbird, you help me understanding my past relationship better. I think it is the right thing to do, to break off contact when the situation becomes too much to cope with. But I always felt sorry that he was so easily upset all the time for no apparent reason, in situatio... |

The phenomenon as such clearly exists, otherwise there would be no reports of bizarre experiences, (of the kind that Charles Ford was collecting). The governments are aware of that, but as long as the phenomenon doesn't pose any immediate threat to aviation or the military, they don't need to contro... |

Yes, I think you are onto something here. He had a very staunch and dominant mother, so when I was harsh, strong or even angry, he felt safe, because that's what he was familiar to him. But when I was relaxed he may have felt threatened, because under the surface there could have been something goin... |

137 But some of the questions are really stupid and inadequate. Often I had to really think hard why they would ask that, to make any sense of them. Maybe someone on the spectrum should design a test that other people on the spectrum can actually relate to. Anybody here up to the task? (I might give... |

Something I noticed in my past relationship with an abusive narcissist was how quickly and easily they can spot it, when their partner is relaxing. Because every time I did, he would launch an attack immediately, never when I was alert and had braced myself for an attack. He always waited until I wa... |

It means he had full scientific training, which many hobby investigators do not have. I don't know what you mean by "full," but is any of that education relevant to UFO investigations? I was under the impression that these investigators had too little material evidence to apply much scientific trai... |

If aliens really are visiting this benighted world, then a few questions are in order. According to the 'star seed' hypothesis, the 'alienness' shows no visible, physical manifestations and is only a property of minds (if I have read the foregoing posts correctly). First question: Why are they - th... |
