'Yeah, actually the way I came to decide I am ENFP is also another reason I think I am. If that makes any sense. After reading posts extensively in that subforum, I felt in a very intuitive sense...
On the four questions you posted, I have no qualms or doubts about my answers to numbers 1 and 4 (energized, and casual respectively). However 2 and 3 stab at the heart of the matter for me and what...
Except that according to the cognitive test, I use Ti more than Fi, or prefer it or whatever. IDK, but I still think ENFP is right. The whole thinking vs. feeling conversation is still...
Personally I liked the explanations from Lenore Thompson. In the context of just cognitive functions (in no particular order), it seems like I use NE, Ti, Fi the most. Oh wait, I just looked back...
Thanks jessmk7 Makes sense to me. At work I'm designing software and writing code. I spend a fair amount of time thinking through that. It's mostly an internal process too. Also I draw a lot...
All this talk about typing and functions prompted me to take the test while I'm working (I've never done this). So my assertions look to have been born out. I've posted at various times that while...
Yes! As a general rule, those of us who didn't fit in to the stereotypes at school (and elsewhere at a young age), especially for being labeled geeks, nerds, gay, or whatever, and all the fun...
Hmm... I vote we avoid deciding the truth of the Genesis story as we may have individually interpreted it here, and stay focused on the are we connected thing. I'm just sayin...
I generally agree with this. I've always seen the creation story in the bible as symbolic and metaphorical, rather than literal. However I also think we are free to read it and make up our own...
Absolutely! Sorry about your dreams. I do totally need to balance between immersing in the social experience and getting away. When I get too much of one or the other I tend to get wacky if I'm...
I stopped short of saying this in my first post, but also the times when I really get introverted and need alone time are often because I'm feeling overwhelmed by this. If I am in a city I literally...
Being a guy who was raised by a single mom with no dad in the picture, and straight I can relate. I think there is a lot of this sort of harassment in American male culture in general. However I...
Holy poop I feel this so much! I really hesitate to say this in such a public forum for fear of being locked up. I usually don't talk about this. I'm not claiming super powers or anything like...
The interstellar gas cloud Sagittarius B contains a billion, billion, billion liters of alcohol. The outdoor temperature can be determined by counting the number of cricket chirps in fourteen...
What you guys said. Too much here to quote case by case, but the last two pages are spot on! There's really good material here. I think for me, being 7w8 in combo with ENFP helps explain the...
1.What led you to mbti? My wife and I took the test to understand each other's personality types, and grow our relationship. We are always looking to keep growing. 2.What made you come to the...
Agreed! Upon taking the test, I have to say that the percentages colored my impression of the meanings of the letters in combination. I say this with no small amount of hesitation, but I have...
I'm 7w8 as well. n2freedom yeah I totally relate to being more decisive and focusing when I need to. However I do relate to a lot of other ENFP generalities. Definitely not the smothering...
Heh, sorry I get a bit rapid fire when my intellectual juices are flowing. Yes here you go. Again, MBTI aside, I'm curious how accurate this is from the standpoint of how you take in and process...
This is EXACTLY, what I was trying to say! This is where I was struggling with the MBTI construct. I couldn't quite spit it out. Thanks for hitting the nail on the head! Also I am curious on...
Monkey King Wow! Thanks for breaking this down. Your post really helped me. Yeah, agreed on Te-Ni being a powerful combo. On Ne-Fi, I would add that it is a powerful tool in quickly...
Absolutely! The one thing I would add here is there does appear to be an innate preference or built in ability to use certain functions more than others. I would liken it to being left handed. I...
Not sure what you mean here? Did I get that wrong? I think I can put the unrelated possibilities thing in a better way. When an ENTJ makes a decision, there is a clear path from start...
I think my confusion on the matter and therefore yours comes from my internal conceptions on introverted and extroverted. When I see the i in Ni, I am thinking, This is an introverted function...
Absolutely! I don't think epiphanies are related to types. What I mean is that I think they are universal. Maybe the reasons/methods/routes undertaken to get there vary but the sensation and...
I would defer to your experience here. A couple of hours of looking at the functions only does so much. I really appreciate your patience with me in helping to understand the functions. So I...
Well it's certainly not the end of the equation. It's merely a starting point. However it's an accurate description of those functions in a vacuum. That's where the problem is. No one uses a...
Hmm I would say that Te looks at what people are doing to determine what is going on around them, and Ne looks at why people are doing what they are doing to figure out what is going on around them.
Hmm, I think I need to absorb MBTI theory and come back to this discussion. I feel like I brought a spork to a gun fight with how much I really know about the theory behind this stuff. What...
SO much for lurking! Nice thread by the way. I found it stimulating, and thought provoking. On the bit above, I am wondering about the result of Ne. The function of making connections I get, but...
Thanks guys! Word, orange is underutilized in men's wardrobes. Unless you count hunters and convicts. Hmm... maybe there's a correlation there.

Yay! I'm not the only one, and I'm in good company too! thanks Mucha!
Hmm I just realized something about myself. When it comes to attraction, I have a hard time saying what feature I like because I usually have an immediate, strong gut reaction about the essence of...
Are you considered hot or beautiful or cute by others physical standards? I don't know that I'd go that far. I get good looking a lot. My wife says I'm hot, but she's probably biased....
Fun hand made flash card drawings to music. Love this stuff! Love this song! Love the movie too! That movie and the story are bea-u-tiful! LOVE THIS THREAD!!!! More than anything else on this...
I don't know much about the MBTI compatibility. I am married to an ESFJ. I think we work really well together since she is a bit flexible with the organization/planning/structure and I have worked...
Here you go. http://personalitycafe.com/debate-forum/66048-astrology-you-true-believer-confirmed-skeptic.html#post1612349
Out of curiosity have you ever had your full chart done, or is this based on the general zodiac descriptions from the Sun signs? Astrology uses the position of the planets and is intended to map...
I love the hand drawn flash animation to music! I have a friend that totally does this, and it's my favorite! Link Link Link! BoiseMorgan's Channel - YouTube
WMDistraction For the record, I didn't personally find anything you posted to be disrespectful or such. I was gonna PM you as much but felt it was better expressed here.
n2freedom I just have to say that you rock! I am picking up what you're laying down. Thanks!
BTW I originally just intended to post my experiences for the benefit of the OP. However I seemed to have gotten mired in debating whether there is any merit to astrology at all. My bad. So...
I find this viewpoint interesting (bold is mine). Maybe cause I suck it up when I perceive contentions/conflict/confrontation. Sometimes when I get jammed up my damned feelings get in the way of...
Thanks chicky, you're the best! Sorry about your experiences. There are definitely a lot of shady manipulative types out there preying on people with claims of psychic abilities, etc. There is...
And we're off! Not sure how I became a poster child for astrology. That certainly wasn't my intent or belief. I do enjoy a debate, but some of the content feels more like using insults as an...
We're all absolutely entitled to our opinions. There are plenty of examples of processes and systems subject to similar contentions. MB typing is not immune to this either. However, I think...
Here I go dragging up an old thread. It seemed better than starting yet another one of these since it seems there are a number of them. So anyway... Yeah I think the zodiac descripions...
Fenrir317 Wow! Thanks for that insightful and super helpful explanation. It's funny cause I totally identified with both of your descriptions of these two types. Depending on the context/situation...
Holy scenarios, I do this a lot. I mean all the time. If I have an idle moment I am absolutely imagining all kinds of weird stuff all the time about the lives of people I know and love, and people...'
