Do you think you have rigid, porous, or healthy boundaries with people? If you wanna specify between acquaintances, friends, close friends, romantic partners, sure thing. For reference, here are some common traits of each: Rigid boundaries: * Avoid intimacy and close relationships * Unlikely to ask for help * Has few close relationships * Very protective of personal information * May seem detached, even with romantic partners * Keeps others at a distance to avoid the possibility of rejection Porous boundaries: * Overshares personal information * Difficulty saying "no" to the requests of others * Overinvolved with other's problems * Dependent on the opinions of others * Accepting of abuse or disrespect * Fears rejection if they do not comply with others Healthy boundaries: * Values own opinions * Doesn't compromise values for others * Shares personal information in an appropriate way (does not over or under share) * Knows personal wants and needs, and can communicate them * Accepting when others say "no" to them 3. Branching from the above question, which kind of boundary do you have for: * Physical (personal space and physical touch) * Intellectual (thoughts and ideas) * Emotional (personal feelings) * Sexual (emotional, intellectual, and physical aspects of sexuality) * Material (money and possessions) * Time (how someone uses their time) Not bad, not bad.

In high school, I saw a friend playing FE8 (chapter 6 or so?) and got hooked. Unfortunately, when I asked which FE was playing, he only said "Fire Emblem" - so I landed up playing FE7 (which was called just Fire Emblem in North America) for two weeks. I happened upon it while browsing around and didn't even bother lurking - I just started an account. 2 hours ago, DisobeyedCargo said: Alright let's go: 1. Thoughts on me? 2. Favorite video game? 3.

Here goes: Neither-nor. Both animals make me jittery. Generally more of a night owl. I exhibit a combination of both traits. Artistic? I really don't know. I exhibit all three depending on the circumstances. In languages, for example, I am visual and auditory. Toughest job? A project on the history of Russia - it took me about thirty hours. Dirtiest job? Cleaning the toilet (which, admittedly, isn't too bad at my house in light of the fact that our family showers once or even twice a day). Most rewarding? That project above - it was displayed very prominently at a school concert. Riskiest? Probably that time I climbed a forty-foot pole during my grad trip. Risque? Asking a girl to a dance - she accepted without question, but then lectured me the next day about how she was only going out with me as a friend and that there were no romantic implications. 28.

Rex Glacies Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 24 minutes ago, Sigismund of Luxemburg said: Not very much. What do you recommend? Hm. Well, Greek mythology is always fairly easy to understand and rather simplistic - its something I think everyone should at least have a basic understanding of. Roman mythology is nigh the exact same as Greek, albeit with different names for deities and characters. I'm fairly certain resources on them are quite commonplace. (I probably have at least 3 books on Greek mythology, excluding Percy Jackson stuff.) Norse mythology is my personal favorite due to a couple of its themes and interesting concepts, though it might be confusing at times. (It should also be noted that a lot of concepts, weapons, characters, etc. in Fire Emblem are named after the mythology, most notable in Genealogy, Sacred Stones, Conquest, and Heroes.) Egyptian mythology is also neat, though half the time I have no idea what is going on there. Those three tend to be the most often studied mythologies; anything beyond them is... hard to find or really weird. You know what? How about I get you started on mythology! I can give you a bunch of stories to read and give your opinions on, but first, I'd like to know what all you already know. VIII. ... What myths do you already know about? IX. Hot or cold? X.

Yes, though it isn't so accurate. I'd be honoured. Wouldn't mind, though I'd find it weird. In what regard? LoTR, the Silmarillion Yes, all three. Probably Godwinson or Normandy. The order of succession in that situation was quite blurred, and the kings seemed about the same in merit (to my limited understanding); so I'd want a ruler that was native or came from nearby, since they'd understand the people better. 9 hours ago, Natalie said: You should be very careful how you tread here, mister.

Yours truly thinks that you are nice, although a bit *ahem* quirky. Canada, U.S., Korea, Singapore, Bangladesh Italy, Poland, Germany, Russia, England, Sweden Poland - being surrounded by all that history would be such a great thing for me. The bitter melon.

Julius Nepos Posted December 29, 2017 Author Share Posted December 29, 2017 (edited) Just LotR and The Silmarillion, yet you recognize Rog of the Hammer of Wrath? Impressive. 16. How come you haven't completed any FE games? 17. Why is Domitian one of your least favorite Roman Emperors? 18. How can Didius Julianus not be one of your least favorite Emperors? I mean, his reign is basically a meme. You can't unironically like him. (I'm not sure if you knew of him, but if you didn't, definitely look him up; it's hilarious.) 19. Any favorite Tolkien characters? 20. Have you ever been defenestrated? If not, would you like to be? 21. Have you ever defenestrated someone else? If not, would you like to? 22. Have you ever defenestrated yourself? If not, would you like to? 23. Have I ever told you that I'm grateful to you for introducing the concept of defenestration into my life?

Rex Glacies Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 On 12/27/2017 at 11:37 PM, Sigismund of Luxemburg said: ENTP-T (or was it ENTP-J) - it fits me. Interesting. I was pegging you as ENTJ but this was reasonable as well. So now I will get you started on mythology! Hahaha! Starting with Greek! ... Or I would, if I could find a good Greek mythology website. But as it turns out, the best resources for Greek mythology is in books. So, Norse it is! XV. Thoughts on this tale of Loki the trickster? XVI. Thoughts on this story about Thor, the manliest man's manly man? XVII. Do you live somewhere rural, urban, or suburban? XVIII. Which do you prefer of the areas above? XIX. Katana, broadsword, or scimitar? XX. Eastern or western dragon? XXI. Samurai or ninja? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
