    I think an ISFJ is less likely to cheat, but only if their emotional needs are met. If their emotional needs are not met they could be just as likely as anyone to cheat because it will be difficult to let the person that they are currently with go. They may not want to hurt the current person's feelings and know how to end the relationship appropriately. As a result they could end up getting in over their head with two or more people at a time.

    No offense, but that sounds just plain ridiculous and somewhat well...dumb. How does any reasonable person become involved with more than one person when they weren't originally seeking it to begin with? Are you sure you weren't just playing the field and ended up biting off more than you can chew?

    It could be that his/her current wants (wanting to meet emotional needs + not wanting to hurt the other's feelings) are so strong that they outweigh the moral boundaries originally set. Emotions are a powerful thing, particularly so for a Feeler type.

    Perhaps, but I don't think you're really in a position to make that kind of a statement. Even though you may, for all intents and purposes, be correct.

    You hit it right on!!! Very perceptive response.

    So you'd rather cower out of a relationship than just fess up to your mistakes? That doesn't sound very mature at all. Quite frankly, don't be surprised if you end up losing everyone due to not being able to deal with your emotions.

    If you think I'm being harsh well...I don't know what else to tell you.

    No, I don't think you're being harsh because it's not my situation (Thank God!). I just know that when I speak with Fe types they usually find it difficult to hurt other people's feelings and find it more difficult to bring an end to a relationship.

    No one likes hurting others unless they're sadistic or something yet avoiding being the issue out of fear of being "mean" or hurting someone you claim to care about is childish and rather selfish. Plus you're only stunting your own development and growth in the long run. Not to mention that you're playing with other people's feelings. I'd say what you're currently doing is much worse than momentarily allegedly hurting someone by cutting ties with someone.

    You're going to have to pull the plug on someone, question is who and how will you do it? :p

    Out of curiosity, have/do any of the aforementioned people acknowledge your devotion/steadfastness to them?
    i didnt get your message until now, next time try putting a @ before my name to "mention" me. To answer your question I dont hear them say it, but i think they act a certain way towards me because of it. We are not really a sappy bunch who talk about feelings.
