'It can be difficult to tell sometimes. Both would seem to have lots of friends but only a few very close friends (probably from different friend circles). One interesting indicator I thought of might...
I have recently had a situation where someone I've been friends with for 6 years (a male ISFP friend) has been, in my eyes, turned against me by his psycho girlfriend. 5 days ago he said some very...
Yes my old ISFP friend said he falls in love all the time with everyone. Don't know what that's like as I tend to fall in love with someone who demonstrates that they are not scared of me and show...
Don't watch TV or play computer games or other distractions. You'll find yourself doing something else. Perhaps ESTPs have this ability that they just have to NOT do what they don't want to do or...
I feel like I just need to put myself out there, to shine and show who I am. I get really disappointed when it seems I haven't shown who I am (which I interpret as whenever I get negative feedback...
Within limited resolution, there must be an actual perfect or best thing, that cannot be better. However we either don't know what it is, or can only imagine some aspects of it (for example...
I find it difficult to forgive without taking the perspective that the offender is just ignorant. That their perception of the world is somewhat different from mine. For example in my world,...
I suppose when people have impairments in something like empathy (either emotional or cognitive), they are often not viewed as human (or they even doubt their own humanity themselves, which can...
This makes more sense now. I think both with dominant Ni do form a picture of someone instantly, then how they test it is different. Usually the way INTJs do it seems to be they act immediately...
So, it's pretty hard to tell for sure. I was mostly going off these: Active use of Ni is described as Pursue a greater level of awareness to transform who you are and how you think. Source:...
At first I was going to say statistically no, but after reading your post it definitely seems to be INFJ. You might get mixed up with INTJ because of the dominant Ni and with INTP because of the...
People will often try to label, but they don't mean it. It's just their way of making sense of their world. It's nothing to do with you, really. You can be aware of how they label you to the extent...
Have any of you achieved completion in your life? For example, you've seen something so beautiful you just think, that exists, therefore my life is complete. The mere fact that that beautiful...

Anthony Tony Robbins: Unlimited Power, because I saw a picture of someone reading it. It's from 1986 when NLP was this snazzy new thing coming out, but it's great to explore the foundations of...
I thought Ni-doms often like to win arguments, so maybe you should argue on the INTJ or INFJ fora? There are probably already all kinds of arguments going on there already which you can join (I...
Now that I think of it this does make sense, ESFJs have the capability to be the coldest (ENFJs not quite because they have some part of them that wants to appeal to the masses whereas ESFJs may...
I think it's just my iNtelligence :wink: Of course I think sex is important but I've been frustrating myself too much about it from it being my life's purpose and not getting any, seemingly as a...
Agreed - I think this is something about Ni that bugs me sometimes, as if they have to start off with an initial concept of who you are based on almost nothing (and which often we can see is...
Absolutely! I've usually just been an explorer kind of person. Used to like going outside a lot, sometimes going to places where people could get lost in harsh conditions (and absolutely loved...
I've evolved a lot since I wrote that post. I think probably my expectation that it would be incorrectly perceived as inappropriate made most people think that I must think it's inappropriate and...
Sometimes I get accused of staring (too much eye contact). Some times I might not look someone in the eye ever is if I think they're a psycho.
Se is pretty good at detecting all personality types really. That's because on personality page it says one of the things helpful to ISPs is try to identify the personality type of people you meet,...
I think it would be awesome.
Everyone has all the cognitive functions, I heard the main difference in personalities is just which ones you're comfortable with. So you know what Se is, but you might not be comfortable immersing...
Better than how I could have said it.
Thank you. I extracted the useful information. Cool, obviously it was a joke but then again, I have everything on that list and it doesn't work. What works must be what GTBean said. Time to...
That makes sense. Interestingly I've noticed the effect is stronger in people with auxiliary Te rather than dominant Te. Probably the people with dominant Te also see me as judgmental or...

A very good description. Some otherwise-good people keep accusing me of categorising, [over] analysing and judgmental and I just don't get it. It sounds to me like they are the ones...

I've always thought messing with people was wrong to the extent that it harmed me because I didn't mess with people, but now I'm discovering that it's OK and I'm developing some skill at it....
No, I mis-saw an N there not an S. ISFJs may do similar things but don't let me know (though how would I know in that case? not certain on this point). Sorry.
People who say everyone is selfish are essentially saying ego is all there is. There is a thought experiment that can prove ego and selfishness is not all there is, though, which I call...
One think I've always noticed with INFJ (and ENFJ) is they tell other people what I mean/think/feel, so when they're around, everyone's opinion of me is dictated by them. This usually happens before...
Virtues, objective morality. Edit: deleted values because of possible misinterpretation of the word - for example, wealth and popularity don't count, even though they can be called a form of...
Positives: I will do anything for you (within reason). Potential Negatives: I want to do anything for you (within reason). Pretty much sums it up neatly.
That's quite a change :) Welcome, how's life in the VIP section?

It's interesting as the opposite personality to INFJ it's more like I can see the bad side of most men (unless they already think life is easy and they can easily get what they need) but I tend to...
How do you think one can best demonstrate to an ISTJ they really accept and appreciate them and there's no pressure?
Admittedly he's usually very quiet around strangers, but I guess he was thought of as having the gift of the gab because he couldn't stop about some things, entire lectures/seminars would just flow...
The names like Scientist etc are just so lay-people can begin to understand it better. Most people don't seem curious to know what the term INTJ means, even if you explain what the letters stand...

Do you like more spending time alone or spending time with people? Sometimes it's mis-written do you spend more time alone or with people to which I would answer alone. But written the way above...
I guess so. I was bullied quite a lot growing up and didn't want to use violence, plus didn't get taught self defence (and still don't have time for it). I still feel the bullying has had a lasting...
ESTPs like ENTJs though, as far as I know. ESTPs like following plans and figuring out tactics, ENTJs like planning.
how about taking your son to martial arts classes :)
Ability to turn inanimate objects into women.
Something you might have noticed is that SFJs seem to be a lot like cats. The ESFJs I know seem more like lions or lionesses but usually more like the type you see in The Lion King, not real...'
