'I'm shy at the beginning. I need to get my bearings, get to know people. Then I'm more than happy to say hello to people.
Vank you very much! :laughing: (It's vark as in aardvark. :D )
Not offended.
Our personalities don't lock us into doing things. If you'd like to start to chew on these specific topics then please start a thread of your own but what I'd like to talk about here is the ENFP's...
You're absolutely right. There's nothing wrong with picking a side, and to say that you think you are right. It's when people want you to pick a side just because their worldview depends on...
I've balanced my work with my personality. I'm a night shift front desk attendant in a fancy apartment building. People ask how can you work alone? You're a people person!, but it's perfect. ...
I like to be on the fence. I'm not wishy-washy or can't make a decision, I just see all the angles and can see when making a decision on a topic isn't really necessary. Even when I am firmly on one...
When some feminists cannot stand you because you're a man but you're thinking like a woman.
Most of the time I have no trouble falling asleep. I lay down, put my arm over my face, daydream and I'm out. My problem is I'm an early riser and a morning person - up at 4am. So while I'm never...
I like everything, too. My parents were Classical/Opera/Folk music/Beatles hippy-nerds. My sister and I grew up in the video music era. I have an incredibly soft spot for 80's music. I was also...
I'm not a big fan of tats. That being said, there is nothing whatsoever wrong with getting them, having them, enjoying them. It's your body. I have seen very well done tats that I admired. I...
I love being an ENFP but sometimes it feels like a girly personality profile. I feel kind of bulldozed by all the guys who are T's and J's thinking that's how a guy is supposed to be.
Only... I've been here a hair less than a month. This morning I got three rapid fire achievements: 30 days, 90 days and a year. Fastest year I've ever known.
Hippy strikes me as an antiquated term, like greaser.
Not sure which forum to put this in.... I was walking to my car in the parking garage at my work - I work in a fancy apartment building. I saw a license plate that said: ENT1 And I thought...
I've got so much spirit, I run a Monk in Diablo 3. :D
My wife says I'm obnoxious when I drink. I get giggly and silly. One time with four beers in me I was singing the Star Spangled Banner using only the words Paper plate. I'm not much of a...
Here's my FB quotes box: Freedom is not a license for chaos - Norton Juster A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the...
Falling in love is druglike. Everything is fine. Everything will work. But... it's something that wears off. Why? Well, from a biological standpoint, life wants to make more babies. It makes it...
You're fine. Everyone thinks. Everyone feels. There are thinkers out there who feel too much, too. Remember, you're an N and a P. You're not necessarily thinking, you could be intuiting and...
The poll is skewed. College students and high school students probably tend to have more free time to hang around on Internet forums than adults. These folks - by definition - would be some...
All good suggestions. The big issue is exactly that: she doesn't communicate. I think her problem goes beyond being an introvert. I have friends who are introverts who can and do talk. If I could...
Good thing you're non-specific. We can learn everything about you down to your shoe size if you would have told us your exact age. :proud:
At home the deck is kind of stacked for the introverts because they're in their comfort zone AND have someone to talk to if they're feeling social. The extrovert is stuck because they have to go out...
I would suggest a mutual loosening of restrictions. You can still keep in contact, etc, but leave things open. Discuss the fact that it is a LDR and discuss what the two of you would do if either...
Delete double post.
Not quite. ENFPs can and do crash. Its hard for other people to notice because when we have others around it's easy to run off that energy. When you're alone though, with no one around to work off...
Is there any other kind? :D My wife is an INFP and I practically have to drag her to social events - drag is a strong word, but I spend many nights quietly at home with her, and it's only fair...
I'm apprehensive entering new situations. Takes me a while to warm up. Even then I put off my full extrovert as long as I can. Once that cat is out of the bag you can't stuff it back in.
Here, this will make you feel better. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=84WpcmJ28Yg
My wife and I are ENFP and INFP. Place is pretty cluttered.
Okay, fellow ENFPs, here's a tour I did of my hometown of Bellevue, Pennsylvania. I go by rufushonkeriv in this, which was/is my LiveJournal username. ...
The rattle of the air conditioner. It's pretty darned hot.
I attract introverts. Not sure why.
Thank you. I'm moving along, good to get tips.
Indeed. Kind of related - when I was in high school I had a phobia of asking out girls who were older than I was. Felt like they were off limits. It's silly in retrospect.
Well MY hand... DUH!! What hand do you think I would write with? (I'm right handed.)
I LOVE the feel of warm, wet cement under bare feet after it rains after a hot day. I like radio towers. They're just cool! The smell of fresh ground coffee when you first open the can. I...
I find that because I'm loud and silly, people feel comfortable around me and thus stand closer than I'd like. And it's almost never people who you would enjoy standing close.
I was only ENFP at home in elementary school and junior high. At school I was teased mercilessly to the point that I couldn't tell who was being mean or who was making an innocent joke. I was...
I was at a thrift store once and found the UGLIEST shirt I had ever come across in my life. Of COURSE I bought it! It had a collar and long sleeves, buttoned down the front - was orange and had...
I was a junior high/high school youth leader for ten years. I have three kids. (11, 9, 7: two girls and a boy) Yep, I get along fine with kids. As I get older I do have periods of having had...
-I'll make loud and annoying sounds in the car when I'm driving to work and back - you know, just making the kind of strange sounds that (for lack of a better term) special needs people make. I'm...
Sorry, can't read through 77 pages worth. Posting first. (That's kind of ENFP, isn't it?) Why are you even THINKING that? You're really... unique. Okay does anyone OTHER THAN [your...
That's an interesting take, about being the most introverted of the extroverts. I've always gotten along with introverts best. My father, wife and best friend are all introverts. I always assumed...
I've been going through a rough patch. No worries, I know it's going to end. I've felt this way before. There's some relationship issues going on with my wife, who is an INFP, but a VERY STRONG...
Hi. I'm Kevin. I'm 38, married, three kids. I joined the forum to see what other people with my temperament are like. ENFP isn't really common, best as I can tell. I've always been bouncy...'
