MBTI

Defender

Sentinels ISFJ

Very dedicated and warm protectors, always ready to defend their loved ones.

'That makes a lot more sense than what I've heard before. What I heard was that ISFJ's are 14%. I live in the United States and I only know one ISFJ besides myself, lol! So I definitely agree that...

Thanks! I won't worry about it.

Yeah, I would say you're an ISFJ. It's a pretty awesome type to be but then again, I might be slightly biased!

I don't cry very much. Just because I'm an ISFJ, my instinct is to help people. When I cry in front of someone, it makes me feel vulnerable and like I'm the one who needs help. I do cry a lot...

I love that song!

From your description, I would definitely say you are either an ISFJ or an ISFP.

Fynest One Whoa! You have a pretty good memory then. Especially the part about remembering your weight. I didn't realize just HOW much us ISFJ's have in common until I started reading this...

Whoa! I loved all the things you listed. Sometimes people post things on this thread that don't seem to match up to the typical ISFJ. But I was like LOL exactly! at every single thing you listed...

Yup! I can identify with all of these . . .

Whoa! Same for me. I've only met one other ISFJ, but I know oodles of INTJs which are also one of the rarest.

I don't know. I think I do pretty good when I tell a joke to a crowd. But I have to admit that I only tell jokes that I've practiced before. Kind of like giving a speech, I don't like to wing it.

For me, I would say: warm and caring quiet reserved tactful funny aware of others considerate optimistic

I'm still trying to understand why both of them were shot.

My goodness! What an amazing song. I was almost in tears after I watched the video though :crying: No wonder it's your current sad song.

The cold never bothered me anyway! So yeah, I like cold weather. Although my favorite season is fall, not winter. I like the cooler nights, piles of leaves and dustings of snow. It's so refreshing...

lexierose this is my favorite reply to my post. I really appreciate you giving your thoughts. I don't think you could be more spot-on. As I was reading through I kept saying Yeah! That makes so much...

Thanks! I'm glad it's not just me. You're right about if it was my dog, it would probably hit home a lot more with my emotions.

I know :crying:

Yeah, I really like kids, especially ones under 5! They're so darn cute and lovable. So you're probably right, it has more to do with your interests.

Thanks for you reply. That makes a lot of sense. And don't worry! I wasn't going to turn in my ISFJ card or anything. I'm absolutely 100% positive I'm an ISFJ :)

So as an ISFJ, I have a deep care for people, how they're feeling and how I can help them. But when it comes to animals, I'm afraid that I'm cold-hearted. A couple months ago, my mom's dog (the...

Heck yeah! This happens to me all the time. I'll have to pay attention to which one I listen to more :)

Yup! That's me and my mom. Here is a link to play Simon free online. Basically, the computer will play a color pattern. You just have to repeat the pattern. Each time you successfully repeat the...

That is so cool! My mom is an INTJ and her instructions were usually pretty vague. In fact, there were even times that she would say can you go get the 'thing' from downstairs and expect me to...

Yup. This sounds pretty spot on to me. By the way bluekitdon that is one fantabulous avatar

Raawx I'm curious what you mean when you say someone can be ESFP with ENFP tropes. What are tropes?

I definitely agree with what others have said. ISFJs want to be needed. If we feel like a relationship exists for our benefit, we're not happy at all (at least in my experience). I'm not sure all the...

I feel you there! My schedule can be booked and I still find myself saying yes to everyone I know :)

Yeah, I guess so. I usually don't feel that way on the inside, but I probably end up being very composed and calm on the outside because I'm an ISFJ and all.

Sophi Me too. I would love to be an author. I hope you get a chance to someday soon!

Thanks!

Okay. So in the past couple weeks, I've received an unusually large amount of compliments about how I'm level-headed, stay calm and make good decisions in stressful situations. Frankly, these...

I've often wondered how accurate the population percentage statistics for MBTI types are. For example my type is supposed to be the most common, accounting for 13.8% of the population. I've only met...

Wow! That sounds like me. I've tried a daily schedule with time slots several times over the last couple years and it only lasts for a week or two. I inevitably fall behind my time slots and then...

Sophi - Are you a professional writer? Or do you do it as a hobby? I think writing is so cool and I wish I could do it more.

Amazing song! I've never heard it before and I love it.

I like it. Talk about sensible!

Thank you! That is very encouraging to hear.

Oh dear! That is hilarious and sad all at the same time. I remember a time in one of my classes (a pretty large one) when my instructor made some announcements and asked someone to come up and...

BTW, cool avatar!

Thanks for the input. This is getting crazy! *scary music starts playing* It doesn't sound like this is an issue with just a specific browser or anti-virus software. Maybe there's a hacker on the...

Yes, exactly! I like being the go-to for people when they need help and support. When I'm feeling bad and accept help from someone else, I feel like I can't help other people now. I tend to...

This is interesting! No, I'm not using Avast. I am using Firefox as my web browser (has virus blocker add-ons) and Norton as my anti-virus software.

LOL about creeping on the INTJs! Yeah, it seems like it works when I go the PerC homepage, but it's when I try to access the ISFJ subforum that it tries to block it.

Welcome! Sounds like you're more educated than I am on MBTI and Enneagram :) Glad to have you around because I ♥ INFP's

Whatamigonnado? Say Welcome! Glad to have you finally stop lurking and join the crowd! *hug from brave internet surfer*'
