The fact that Leonard’s mother was more like Sheldon, is exactly why Leonard could be so empathetic and patient with Sheldon given his experience with that personality type

@CatGold5047 13 күн бұрын

And why Leonard didn't want to leave Sheldon, even though Sheldon drove him crazy.

That, and since Sheldon is so emotionally immature rather than an accomplished psychologist capable of picking him apart bit by bit, he was probably WAY easier for Leonard to deal with by comparison.

@Dr_KW 12 күн бұрын

I don't think his mother is the same personality type, possibly similar though. She seems like an ISTJ or ESTJ and Sheldon is probably an INTJ or INTP. Difference being Sheldon is capable of expressing love through actions for Leonard while his mother likely can't express her love either in words or actions. Probably why Leonard enjoys Sheldon and barely tolerates his mother.

@Kllgg 12 күн бұрын

Similar personalities but still very different. Sheldon was clearly autistic, but I don’t think Leonard’s mother was. Still enough overlap in their personalities for Leonard to make a connection.

@chrisarcher1146 12 күн бұрын

Y'all are comparing her to Sheldon. Sheldon is largely unaware that he does this kind of thing. Beverly knows EXACTLY what she's doing and she does it on purpose. They are not the same.

I know her character is exaggerated for comedic effects but I just can't imagine this person existing in society. Just one conversation shows how rude and uncaring she is. In our society you need other people to function. Even if you are like her you would need to pretend to be caring just to fit in. Even if you are brilliant no way she can get people to assist her to succeed or even not have people sabotage her to spite her. Sheldon is the same but at least he has friends and a enabling Leonard to support him. Beverly make have her own supporter or enablers to be so successful.
