"As an ISTP, how can I improve my emotional expression and avoid coming across as distant?"

As an ISTP, it can be difficult to express your emotions and avoid coming across as distant. It's naturally going to be a bit of a struggle because it's just not how you naturally make decisions and engage with the world, but with a bit of effort, you can improve your emotional expression and connect with others more emotionally.

If that's what you want to do, here are a few tips to help:

Develop emotional awareness: Take time to reflect on your emotions and identify what you're feeling. This can help you to become more in tune with your emotions and express them more effectively.

Practice active listening: Listen to others and show that you're interested in what they have to say. This can help to build rapport and make it easier to connect emotionally.

Seek out relationships with people who are good at sharing vulnerabilities: People with strong extraverted Feeling preferences tend to be skilled at sharing their emotions and vulnerabilities. Seek out relationships with these types of people and learn from their example.

Hope it helps!
