'I'm cautious too, I like to think I don't take stupid or useless risks. But when conditions are good, I'm very decisive. I have this approach at things, a sort of default strategy, which I...
Benvenuta!
My dearest friends are: ENTP, ISFJ, ESTP, ESTJ. About romantic relationships: INFJ, INFP, INTJ. (Not sure) I am afraid I can't help you much with your research... Not doing your business,...
I can relate a lot with this, overall with the ENTJ explanation of promiscuous women. This is an argument quite often discusses between boys... make the muscle here :laughing: When talking with...
Sometimes it felt like that, but I was really young, like 15-16 years old. When I hit 18-19 I was through that... I mean if I had a breakup I could be sorry, or feeling sad for a while.. but I...
Deicida And you are intelligent, for you to be able to distort facts in such an intelligent manner. I (or others) could reply to you, showing where you are wrong and you will just continue to...
Yes, I am interested in neuroscience. Every research by the Max Planck Institute is much appreciated. I get your point and you are right - people are more likely to defy authority if they aren't...
Sure the results would have been different, but how much? The instinct to obey autority is deeply embedded in every culture and throughout history you can find a ton of demostrations about it. ...
Both Stalin and Hitler were firmly into the paranoid personality disorder AND they were both psychopaths. As you may know, psychopaths are amoral (indifference or disregard for moral beliefs, ethics...
Yes, I forgot to include this. It's almost second nature to me.
I don't hate types, I hate people, evil people. ... Is this a joke? You can't be serious.
I have an ENTP friend and yes, I have noticed what you describe. He decides quickly and, from my viewpoint, badly. As a J, yes, it's true, I take my time to make decisions about money and time,...
Yes, no further trouble. It all went smooth. Reading through this thread made me remember another episode. Curiosly, I didn't think about it, but posts above were related to dad. I respect my...
Ahah that was great. When I was about to obtain my graduation, the General secretary went through my academic transcript and found that one of my exams was badly registered and I had ONE day of...
I used to think that people are an important part of a business; instead, now I think that people are the business. You need to take a step back, because you are getting more and more frustratred...
I found this some days ago; it's a sort of odd description of ENTJs (but I think it's true)
Self-esteem issues and generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) during my late childhood and my early teens. It fixed over time, thanks to sport and some conscious efforts on my part. In my late teens I...
So, two centuries of Enlightenment and then... Kidding, kidding. Aren't you into financial astrology, RIGHT? I know of investment bankers and fund managers using financial astrology to make...
Yes, keeping track of long term goals can be quite an issue. So easy to get lost into everyday life. It's easy to lose focus, too. What I've done here is keeping a journal for my long term goals....
I was afraid of being inadequate, overall when I started studying at university. It came back when I started working. Reality checking made me understand that I was wrong and the average is very...
Lust is my weak point. Sometime I indulge in wrath. Triggered by incompetence, negligence, stupidity and many other things. And pride.
Done. Results were pretty accurate.
It has passed some time. First I want to thank all the people that have taken time to reply here. So, I am coming back to normal (confidence, mind clarity, no more back painx85) and it feels good. I...
I can be result oriented if a deadline is near or there is some urgency. Or if I'm trying something new. When things are more relaxed or if I'm successful at my attempt, however, I prefer a...
Job satisfaction? I will never be happy with a job, when someone else is my boss. Even if the boss is a great guy, with a lot to teach me, I'm not the one in control. I was lucky enough, when I...

Oh yes. As a teenager, I was obsessing relentless, jumping from an obsession to another. Back in the days, I felt somewhat overwelmed and sometimes I thought I had OCD, but my obsessions weren't...
It seems so. No offence intended but, if you are looking for help/insights why don't you just start a thread addressing your issue? You're not going to resolve anything random-posting complaints. ...
This. I usually connect all topics at the end of my speech and my point becomes clear to anyone. Plus, I often use metaphors to simplify complex situations/concepts.
Dominant. Sometimes too much - but girls like it so... never mind.
Actually, it took me sometime to reflect on those questions. As a child and teenager I had a richer inner world; I was more sensitive, I remember writing some poems, or being able to clearly...
I know what you mean. Look, I not even believe in relationships (I think humans are not naturally monogamous). Just I couldn't ignore the fact that my friend was/is, well, my friend. ......
L'Enfant Terrible Speaking of morality, I live by and stand firm to my principles (for example, never betraying a friend; never manipulate people; never cheat and so on). Same here, people...
Humans are social animals afterall... Not trying to assert myself like a psychology or MBTI expert here, but I don't think that using a dominant extraverted function automatically makes you a...

skydreamer Do you expend energy in interacting with people or do you get energized by it? In the first case, you're likely INTJ.
I am quite good at maths. In high school, I was a member of the mathematics team :rolleyes: But I was one of the worst in the team. I would say I'm skilled but not as much as physicists or...
Ahah yes; I would have to talk about that with more details. At first my smiles (when forced) looked like: - a sort of evil grin (!) - a sort of sexy smile (!?) Obviously I didn't want to...
I would say the ability to solve problems and difficult situations in a smooth and quick manner. That and the ability to ensure efficient execution.
I faced this same issue some time ago. I'm not able to tell how I come off to people; gauging their reactions I realized I was often perceived as intimidating or unapproachable; that was true both...
8w9 sp/sx/so. I also have some traits of Ones. Sorry if I can't contribute more but I am still studying enneagram and it's still a little confusing.
1) Lack of empathy. 2) Satisfaction for accomplishments comes to an early end... I want always more. 3) I'm so impatient at times. 4) Poor understanding of emotions/feelings. 5) Hard to...
Femme fatales...
I tend to be myself and authentic most of the time. However, I choose to appear dumber when someone is trying to fool me (most of the time I can tell very well if someone is being unfair); I find...
This reminds me so much of my arguments with my ENFJ mother. She distorts facts with feelings, that really makes me angry and I have the need to, yes, destroy her arguments. Then she takes the...
I don't like to get drunk; I am not able to bear eye contact with people and that annoys me so much. But... I love tequila; and sometimes I drink too much of it and I cross my limit. Usually I...
Thanks OP for these links, I gained a better understanding of myself and the phase I'm trough. I would say that my favourite triggers are the ending of a relationship and failures. Same...
In my teenage years I liked them; now I am not interested anymore.
In many fields - ranging from programming, economics, financial markets - I've proved to be really good at solving problems. I can see the full picture, and at the same time I can see the many, tiny...
Thank you all for having taken the time to reply this thread. I have started to work on my issues and I feel I have made some improvement - just a baby step. I'm more positive now. I am doing...'
