But so are you! posted by Tal on September 08, 1999 at 00:24:24: : : All this nonsense about us 4s being over-dramatic and precious because we claim to be "special". Don't the others get it? "Special" is a state of mind, but also EVERYBODY'S truth. You're special. She's special. He's special. I'm special. Get it? I got it eons ago! : Well that's mebbe the mature way of looking at it but not the average Four mentality which is more of an "I'm special and too complex for all the other superficial people to understand" one... And other types don't feel this way. 9's often feel that opposite, that they're not at all important. 2's often deny their own needs, not so much because they feel guilty receiving. Not all 4's are overly dramatic, but I'll bet we all feel special and different, at least some of the time. How did you manage to get over it so easily? How do you never feel that you haven't gotten what you deserve? - Hal -
