Possibly...
This is an 'are you like this post'.
Recently, my mother drew my attention to how often I will give a qualified answer to a question that most people would answer with a simple "yes" or "no". It's got so that, when she asks a question, she will predict that I will say "possibly", "perhaps" etc!
I gave this a bit of thought and then explained to her that I never like to give a definite answer unless I can be 100% sure that I am correct. Now, I know that most people aren't so picky about an answer to an unimportant question. So what I'm wondering is this: could this be an INTJ thing (or perhaps INTP as I have traits of both types) or is it just me? In other words, are you like this?
