'I've been a mother for four years and in my good moments I feel this way too. I'd probably characterize my experience as: Most of the time: Tedious Chore - picking up toys, laundry, making...
I work for a big engineering company. A few tips: My favorite detail delegatees are INTJs- Capable enough of outside the box thinking to understand my directions. If the work involves having...
you misunderstand. If we were all the same temperament- balanced, not bad at anything but also not great anything, our ingenuity as a species would decrease dramatically.
I wonder if you're really so confident in your silliness, or if its just bravado as a distraction.. The renaissance wasnt great because everyone was the same.. it was great because everyone was...
My last interview: no, you don't understand.. My working part time really isn't going to be a problem for your project. I'll be as good as three full time employees. (Doh! That sounded arrogant..)...
this is one of the most enfp posts I've ever read. Someone's got some well developed Fi..
Exactly.. Unless the stuff you're trying to learn has to do with social graces or relationship harmony (or disharmony) Fe is just going to limit the info your Ni has at its disposal.
I pretty much get along with everybody.. I know I can make most types uncomfortable at times, but I think it adds spice to a conversation. There are some types that I'm often frustrated with:...
'Getting stuff' easily is more attributable to Ni than Fe..
This sounds very un-entp ish.. Lashing out in anger over not cleaning your plate? Understanding your moms actual type could go a long way toward helping your relationship. My best guess would be...
yeah, I'd say from experience Infps can be one of my most difficult types (my mom).. It's the Ti versus Fi. A balanced infp can be great, but anyone using Fi as a crutch I basically have to handle...
I have two, a baby and a preschooler. The bad- the kind of impact I think I'm capable of making on the world is epic. My visions of grandeur usually involve solving world hunger or at least...
Ah.. the table, and it all becomes clear. So.. it's essentially MBTI with one dichotomy added to account for emotional stability. I wonder if an SCUEI and SLUEI have notably different cognitive...
um, I know next to nothing about the big 5.. I just took it and these are my results. Where does the SCUEI come from? I think my results are misleading. I answered based on my internal thought...
I'm reading through this thread as I'm at a crossroads in my career, trying to decide if I should take on a leadership position... but I had to stop- I dont think the 4 necessarily map to one of the...
Just for kicks, I think that the fact that you consider the mbti, administered by an expert, completely useless as evidence of ones type.. when in reality research shows that such tests have around...
Ha, I actually thought ebullients comments about my type were yours- hard to tell what's going on sometimes when I'm on the iPhone.. So you weren't quite as obnoxious as I first thought. And darnt if...
Wow arkigos.. You're kind of a belligerent little thing aren't you? Lol.. I could appreciate such passion if I was attacking your core beliefs but we're talking about some rockstar's type.. It might...
actually Jung himself thought he was a Ti, Ni.. And while I'm obviously not positive of my preference of Te over Ti, never having been hooked up to EEG, I think it's possible. Regardless- additional...
Adam Levine is an ENTP. He's so drawn to uniqueness, he's a non-conformist, he's overly confident, quirky, intelligent, outgoing and eloquent while still thoughtful.. The list goes on and on. He's...
Awesome ill take you up on that. Are you by any chance single? :)
Does the book talk at all about marrying someone of a similar temperament? Because I'm afraid she would just use it to continue justifying her Se choices..
What about Infps who are very critical of others? My mom is an infp, single and actively dating. Most guys never get beyond the first date because they're just not attractive getting older...
I think you hit the nail on the head here- I often sense that the dissapointment she's brooding over is only the tip of the iceberg. Still, I dont know what to do in these situations... Like...
I would love to resurrect this this thread.. I'm an Ne T (entp) and my infp mother seems to live this uber pessimistic, divorced from reality life. I'd like to be close to her, but I feel like every...
Hey Ben, if you click on the link it goes into a decent amount of detail on the study.. 'mostly the same preferences' is closest. similarity on N/S is the most important. xNFx reported highest...
This is getting completely off topic, but much of what you say doesnt actually make sense.. Myers and Briggs based their work on Jungx92s cognitive processes with only a couple minor...
lol, It's bucky again. This is the second time in as many days you havent actually read my post:
Hey Raich, you should look into the study- xSTPs and NTs are sort of exceptions.. better with Fs than other Ts.. ISFPs would be a nicer fit for you (if not for them, lol)
I wish i could find the actual thread with links to the research (anybody else know where it is??) but the official MBTI test alone actually types someone's primary function and attitude accurately...
Couldnt agree more. Socionics is ridiculous...
To be completely clear, the study claims that type correlates to ‘effective communication’ and ‘relationship satisfaction’. There certainly may be differences of opinion on this, but I think those...
lol, most Ts I know like facts.. and Ns and Js and Ps and Fs for that matter.. I didnt know facts were solely the domain of Ss :)
Most cognitive preference geeks i know have become pretty good at it though. I personally dont tend to settle on a person's type until I've spent quite a bit of time with them- and my personal...
The prevalent opinion seems to be that MBTI and other frameworks for understanding temperament/cognitive preferences should not be used in choosing a life partner. I've seen too many friends and...
nice.. also, hypocritcal, considering.. Let me be very clear. I am passionate about this subject. I've seen too many friends and family members in horrible relationships.. Peoples'...
Um.. I think you got a little prematurely excited there bucky.. did you read my post. I definitely DID date based on type (happily married now) and I definitely advocate dating based on type. ...
Arent ENFP’s supposed to be the best at typing people? Do you need for them to have it tattooed on their foreheads? I’d think a conversation would suffice.. You ‘think’ common values, but...
Well, yes, that's axiomatic.. however, are you arguing that no two people are alike in any way? You cant be, because that's just silly. People are alike in lots of ways.. I have brown hair, and my...
Lol, What does that even mean?
HappyCamper pinkrasputin firedell myexplodingcat just to name a few.. I know this thread has been dead a while, but I stumbled across it and cant help myself.. Dont use temperament as a main...
that's a big statement with nothing factual to back it up..
Where does this flawed ideology come from? It seems to be the prevalent opinion, and it just couldnt be more wrong. I really like my two close INTJ friends. I love to hang with them. We have some...
Antichrist I think you mean anecdotally. Here's another anecdote- I'm an Ne dom and dated an INTJ and it was an epic failure. He was far too insular, and my desire to be constantly out adventuring...
Antichrist Are you trying to say you think an INTJ and an ENFP are a good match? Might I suggest you exercise your T and think about that one a bit before suggesting people with legitimate...

*patiently waiting for werewolf wannabe* hahaha
This surprises me. I would have expected strong links on all four dimensions... We're all strong Ns. We score between 80 and 100% on most tests. We're also all strong Es except my mother.. ...
Yeah, you guys could do all this.. or just not date INTJs. Talk about incompatible, lol
If he's an Se I'm a monkey's uncle. He cant see the trees for the forest.'
