'I ditto many ones already said and would add a show on Netflix called Limitless- so completely Ne in its concept that I would recommend to anyone who will listen. There is also a movie by the same...
I LOVE the button pushing, but I have conditioned myself to play nice. I envy the ENTPs who are more fearless, but I hold back constantly and it makes me pretty unsatisfied. I actually need to back...
Function wise it is a good fit. I just have pretty well developed tertiary Fe which made it easy to relate to INFJs and makes me less trollish (is that even a word) than the stereo type of ENTP, but...
I did dabble in that type because I had a hunch I was more a T than a F, but never went to the extroverted intuition because I thought I was an introvert- Surprise! It's an extrovert! Anyway I could...
Took a little break to try and pin down my type and after much searching and some outside consultation, I am coming out of the closet as ENTP, which is why I felt similar to but not quite INFJ. You...
Everything Prada said! Those conversations are relationship glue and if they aren't natural, it doesn't work. Sorry to be so black and white here, but Te dominates need relationships that aren't...
I am visiting your subforum to get some idea whether I use Ti or Fi. How would you distinguish between the two? I am leaning more to Ti so I thought to explore the opposite for contrast. Give me an...
It took me a long time to conceptualize Ni. Basically the way I work is I take outside patterns (Ne) and organize them on the inside using logic (Ti) which can feel like descriptions of Ni. I am...
I am moving opposite of you- lived most of my adult life as an INFx but am discovering that doesn't really fit the way I think, just the way I behave- which is essence was a script I was following to...
My last test was Te 70% Ti 70% Ne 90% Ne 90% Fe 50% Fi 45% Se 20% Si 25% or something like that. Honestly think that on further reflection I don't use Te that much, I probably use Ne more but it is...
I would love an expert to finally help me pin down my type. I retest pretty often and have hit on a pattern of N dominate consistently over time. I spent so much time studying the functions and...
I can relate to so much of what you were writing about. Typing oneself can be such a challenge. I was stuck on understanding the functions for a long time because while I agree that they are the key...
I have two daughters seven years apart and the ESFJ is the older one. I do have to get on her to not parent her sister so I get that would be true. She tries really hard not to, but it's just natural...
First thing that came to my mind: huh huh huh they said tool... in Beavis voice and then I was off on a tangent. Nice thought vacation...
I have two ESFJs in my life- my daughter and my good friend. I understand where you are coming from. They definitely can have issues with the idea that some people like their space and autonomy, but...
My daughter is an ESFJ and is extremely sensitive to other people. Sometimes I wish she wouldn't worry so much about what people think and just be herself, but she would never want to hurt someone...

It's never too late to talk about a bad knee ;)
Haba Aba Daba Aba thank you for posting that and just to clarify that is not remotely what I experience. I just imagine the words, I don't actually hear anything in the physical sense. I think...
Wow. That was a great explanation of how it works for me. Given this data set, this must be a N thing, not particular to Ne or Ni.
Checked with the voices and they say no.
I am not exactly sure how to explain this, but I usually have chatter in my head. Either replaying a conversation or imagining a conversation how it might play out. Some of these are pretty complex....
Agreed. ENTPs are scary.
Obviously I am questioning my J vs. Pness. I am a pretty laid back J or a more organized P. You describe our relationship to a tee. I do so many things because he likes it done that way. Sometimes I...
Sounds like an interesting investigation.
Tell me more about being married to an XSTJ. I am pretty sure my guy is an ESTJ and it can be interesting at times. He definitely gets into modes and there is no distracting him unless I want an...
I almost always have talking in my head. It is more dialogue than monologue. I play out conversations with other people or even whole scenarios. This pretty much happens unless I am getting enough...
My first inclination is to present my idea and back it up if necessary with an argument. If I refrain from debating with someone on a point, it is because it is a futile waste of breathe not because...
That line... Well I can imagine the scenario in my head and no that is definitely not me. I worked with an ISFJ, my teaching partner, and she was the sweetest person but she drove me insane. I...
First off- catching ENTP interest required some bait- sorry no Death Star was involved. Second thank you for all the feedback- the INFJs are just telling me to not worry I am okay just being me....
I liked the feedback about evaluating which judging preference goes with which perceiving preference and I am not sure. If I had to make a guess, I would not say I use my intuition to read people...
Oh I would definitely skip variables- in fact I could benefit from slowing the process down a little sometimes because I over consolidate variables to get to a theory faster. I definitely start...
I am having an MBTI identity crisis. I know there is a separate subforum forum for this, but you don't seem to have the TJ obsession on posting place observances so I hope you will indulge me posting...
I am in the eternal quest to type myself accurately and I am stuck. Here are my results from the similar minds website function test: Te and Ti both 70% Ne and Ni both 90% Se 15% Si 25% Fe 60%...
Me too. Graduated high school in 1990.
Hi. I am new here and just jumped over from the INFJ subforum and I have to agree that the descriptions kept me mistyping as an INFJ because I like people and am not overly scientificBut I kept...
I can imagine that would be quite the change! That is a beautiful area, but I have to say I am partial to the west. I guess that makes us neighbors in the western sense- separated by a less than 12...
An ENTJ. I love both Bronte sisters' novels.
May I ask where? I am an Idaho girl myself.
First off, I am sorry you are having a hard time. I can relate to being surrounded by the younger and flashier, but I always remind myself I am the experienced and wiser and if employers choose flash...
What kind of romantic gestures do you like? Celebrating a significant anniversary later this summer and would like to do something special for the hubby. He doesn't go for fuss at all and seems to be...
It wasn't one thing, mostly just a feeling that INFJ was close, but not quite. What pushed it over the edge was sitting in a data meeting (I am a teacher) and having the person running the meeting...
Yes. I understand the mismatch now and what you are saying about nuances of personality. But I realize, I prefer the big picture system where there is some predictablilty and overarching trends in...
I made a thread awhile ago, trying to self analyze yet again (perfectionism rears its ugly head). The question that was asked to me in that thread was why does it matter and I want to explain why it...
How did I mix up the generations? I was basically a kid in the 80s and finding myself in the 90s and still basically a kid and if you at 38 could be my mom that would be a scientific miracle as I am...
I can hang with the Gen Yer's also. I lived their lifespan so I can relate to what they talk about and I stay pretty up to date on current trends. I have more trouble with the millennials though- not...
Sometimes I wish I had a fearless bravado where I feel I could be completely myself without an ounce of self consciousness like an ENTP. Sometimes I wish I had pure intellect and conclusions...
Aaaaaawwwwwwwwww!!!! You guys are reminding me of so much cool stuff. Also not helping with the feeling really old, which is something I struggle with, not sure why. Just went through about two years...
I also dissected stretch Armstrong and discovered the red ooze.
When I mastered no hands, I was ecstatic. I ride a 21 speed Mongoose now that I have had since 96 which I bought to ride to college classes because I was too broke for a car. I love to ride but don't...'
