'I had a hard time choosing between self-confidence, self-esteem, healthy relationship, and maintaining a calm, peaceful mind. I went with self-confidence in the end.
I understand the humor part perfectly. I'll laugh and laugh at a man's dirty joke, and even join in, while the women around us are all saying, ewww! gross!. When I do find women that appreciate...
1. ISFJ 2. Both 3. Questions like these are why quizzes/tests don't yield accurate results. There's no black and white answer. Everything comes down to circumstances, and there's always room...
I see ENTP, too, and was just about to say this exact thing. I'm unsure as to why you posted a type me if you're so confident in your type? Just honestly curious. I definitely don't see ISFJ in...

I was going to write my own response, but realized that you basically covered everything, haha! This is pretty spot on for me. I'll add: I'm very bubbly, friendly and outgoing with friends and...
My answer is fairly simple, haha. I test ISFJ most of the time. Plus, after researching Si in depth, it seems more than obvious that it's my dominant function. It took me a while to realize that...
It really goes both ways for me. I love to spend time with people who can carry a conversation, since it really helps take the pressure off me to fill any silences. However, I love to talk. If I...
I pretty much always test as ISFJ, and many have typed me ISFJ on here. I don't exactly know why, but I can make a good guess. First, my inferior Te makes me want to believe that I am organized,...
I used to be really intolerant of them, until I had my own child. Now I understand them more, and I feel like I can interact with them more easily, so it's not quite as awkward. But I still can only...
I completely relate to this, and I don't think I ever consciously realized it until I read your post.
As a 9w1, I can't really argue this one. :D Unless I'm stressed, I am very friendly and I'm a people pleaser. That being said, I wouldn't describe myself as a hippy, hipster, or really that...
The stress I feel when someone asks, what do you do for fun? Uhhm. Well. I read. I... cross stitch. And... watch. things? It always sounds so dull and boring, but man, I enjoy the shit out...
I always test ISFJ, but the functions of INFP/ISTJ always spoke to me, so I always assumed I was one of the two. I think I misunderstood Fe for a long time, and I was convinced that I was a Fi user...
Never intentionally. I may accidentally embarrass someone because I say something without thinking, but if I realize my mistake, I feel extremely guilty.
I think a lot of people forget that Fe isn't about emotions so much as it is about values, morals and decision-making. Here's a list of how I experience Fe in myself: I avoid conflict by keeping...
These stereotypes are exactly what kept me from realizing I was an ISFJ for so long. Granted, I'm a people pleaser, a stay-at-home mom, and I forget to take care of myself. BUT... That doesn't define...
FDT Thank you. You've given me a lot to think about, and I've learned a few things. I appreciate your deductive reasoning in your second post. That helps me tremendously to understand your thought...
No offense at all! I know when I was trying to self-type, I would have read your post and said to myself that there was no way I was an ISFJ, because that's all so unlike me, and the post title is...
I think you pretty much nailed it. I struggle with low self-esteem, and I can be incredibly judgmental and critical of certain people. I don't like it, and the guilt happens sometimes right in the...
On the contrary, I've succeeded in being rude to people plenty of times. But I always feel incredibly guilty afterwards and wish I could take it all back. Also, my ability to remember exactly...
I have a tendency to be very shy at times, especially if I'm out of my comfort zone. If I'm in a new place meeting new people, I am very quite and will generally wait to have someone address me...
I posted my first Type Me thread months ago, back when this was all brand new to me and I didn't understand a thing I was talking about. So, here we go again, this time with the Entropic...
I decided today to move my home office into another room of the house. Not for any logical reason. I'm just excited about the change. My husband's annoyed with me because he doesn't understand why I...
I'm seconding ISFJ/INFP. I mistyped as ISFJ for a looooong time.
I see INFJ tendencies, too, especially this: But the rest of it screams INFP to me, especially:
The cognitive functions, as mizz said, are really the key. I am an INFP who has more balance in my cognitive functions. It's clear that my driving/preferred functions line up with INFP, but I also...
Husband: ESTP Mom: ISFJ Dad: ISTJ Sisters (different father): ISFJ & INFP I think. I didn't grow up with them, so this is really just a rough guess. Closest friends: 2 ISFJs I've just realized...
I'm married to an ESTP, so this is literally my life. On one hand, I feel safe and protected around him, and I trust him more than anyone else, but on the other... I feel small, insignificant, and...
You sound A LOT like me (scarily so), and I'm an INFP. So take from that what you will, lol. :wink:
I get INFP or ISFP from you, too. Those are both Fi dominant types, and it seems like you have a developed Fe, which may be the reason for your confusion. You are probably driven by your internal...
I can't people pretty much any day. I have spouts of confidence and energy, and I feel like I can take on the world. But when those spouts are over, I always dive into reclusiveness and fear of the...
Alright, so I'm a 6w5 INFP, so I look/act a lot like ISFJ, but the functions of INFP are 100% all me. So keep that in mind, I guess. 1. I am a rule follower by nature. I will break rules if given...
No worries. Humans will always be human, and reading your responses to each other is somewhat helpful, regardless of my initial drive to avoid the conflict and keep scrolling. :wink:
I think you're right, here. This is what I believe causes me to be quite gullible, because I definitely am. Ne/Ni is a little confusing for me. I feel like Ni is more of a big picture way of...
Probably even down to me needing to be told that, even when it's probably fairly obvious, right? :wink: The more research I do, the more I agree with you here.
I will say, it's definitely more difficult for me to see the overall purpose past my emotions in person. In the heat of the moment I tend to be more explosive, but only with those I'm closest to (so...
That's very insightful, and I recognize those patterns in my learning process. It's hard to really see the difference between what I want to believe is true about myself, and what actually is.
It started off that way, before I really knew what you were getting at. My immediate reaction was to get defensive, probably due to the wording. I think when people approach me as though I'm not...
I appreciate the insight from both of you. :happy: I see what you're saying... It's easy to take people's word as gospel when I'm so new to the subject. As I stated before, I have lots of learning to...
This is where I get super confused, because Fried Eggz argued many of the points made in that post, and had very valid reasoning behind it. I'm afraid I'll never understand the functions at this...
By all means, I'd appreciate your input. I came to this forum for help from people who might have a better understanding of typology than I do. Not trying to offend, but this type of response is very...
No need for apologies! I didn't take it harshly at all, which is actually uncommon for me. :wink: I admittedly need much more knowledge in the cognitive functions before I can truly self type myself,...
The more research I do, the more strongly I feel that Ne couldn't possibly be my inferior function, and that it makes much more sense for Te to be. I don't identify much with Ti. I just don't think...
Interesting! I'll have to look into this. My understanding of the functions is so immature, so I'd love to hear what makes you think I am Se and not Ne. From the research I've done today, I see Ne in...
I definitely don't think I'm ever convinced that life will be exactly what I imagined. I dream for the fun of it, rather than to plan things out with any expectation. Obviously, the dreaming can be...
Exactly. I plan which grocery store I'll shop at, I find the best neighborhoods, I'll look at homes for rent (even if we're not moving for months, lol)... I get so caught up in the daydream and it's...
Another thing to add is in regards to Ni/Ne. I jump from hobby to hobby, interest to interest, but have a small set of hobbies that I've never strayed from. Anytime my husband gets word of a new...
That's the first thing that put INFP on my radar, haha! Gosh, I relate to it so much... The only thing that I didn't agree with is being a master of self-care. I don't sit around eating junk food all...
I may be completely off, but from the research I've done today, is INFP a possibility for me?'
