'Ack, I feel your pain fluffy_me . My dad and I are both ISFJ, and as much as I love him he can get under my skin like no one else. I get really annoyed when he can't let something go or he brings...
My aunt is an ENTJ kindergarten teacher which is kind of hilarious. She keeps those kids in line.
There was another thread that talked about this, my take away was... NFs look for soul mates. NTs look for mind mates. SPs look for play mates. SJs look for life mates.
One of my best friend from high school is an ESTJ and we get along great. It's been my experience that ESTJ + ISFJ is usually a good relationship, I've gotten along well with every ESTJ that I've...
Surprise for everyone. : mbti Thought I'd share that Dario Nardi will be answering questions on reddit's MBTI page on Wednesday February 13 at 1PM Pacific. He's one of the leading researchers on...
People use cognitive functions to think and process information. Someone with all or no functions would have no strengths or weaknesses, which everybody does.
I've had this happen talking to other ISFJs, it's easy to run out of things to talk about. But not always, depends on the person.
Introverted functions are harder to identify than extroverted ones because, well, they're introverted. I think it's usually a lot easier to spot Fe, Ne, Te or Se because it's out there and in your...
Strengths and weaknesses, a million times strengths and weaknesses. Being an Si user means I need structure in my life and I do best when I have a plan laid out and expectations set, and I need...
There is no one perfect match, personality type is just one of many things that make up who someone is.
Life mates.
She can't pretend to be happy, cheerful, or interested when she's not.
Nah, we're too similar.
Intelligence is really important to me. If I can't have an intelligent conversation with a guy I'm dating it's not gonna work out. It's not the only factor but it's a big one.
Sensor does not equal low intelligence. Come onnnn.
ESFJs can be great friends. Studying the ESFJ profile and Fe + Si may help you understand them better. But remember, there is more to a person beyond their four letters.
I got ISFJ when I took the official test in high school and the description fit me to a tee. I've taken online tests with varied results.
Dammit I thought this was Morgan Freeman.
I'd say ENFJ as well.
I think high school is a good time to take the test. Kids younger than that may have the functions well-developed but maybe can't necessarily answer questions about it.
I like being around outgoing people, they can liven up the conversation and make things more interesting.
You don't have to dispel MBTI. It's a good tool for better understanding yourself and how to communicate with others. It should not be used as a way to put limits on others or yourself, human...
Dario Nardi has done some research about the neuroscience behind cognitive functions. Here's a talk he gave at google: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MGfhQTbcqmA
All of them.
This is really interesting. There's been a little research into MBTI and the cognitive functions (especially Dario Nardi) but much of MBTI is still speculation and repeating things read on blogs and...
Jack from Lost was a well-developed ISFJ. His number one priority is caring for people which makes him a great leader. He's loyal to his friends and sacrifices himself for the benefit of others....
What's your plan here? That's probably what she is wondering. I'm guessing you guys haven't articulated what exactly your relationship is, she may like you but feel insecure because you say you...
I'm glad studying MBTI is helping you get along better with ISFJs, it's helping me get along better with ENTPs too. The shitty thing about being an ISFJ is it can create a loop where you're...
Because the other types are not who I am, I know people who think like that but that's not me.
Mother Teresa is always listed as the famous ISFJ. I dislike her on grounds that she refused pain medication to the suffering because suffering brings you closer to Jesus. If that's not a...
Pros: Makes it easier to communicate with others once you realize how they think is not how you think. Cons: Can lead to giving yourself or others a pass because that's just they way they are/I...
If you kept googling you'd find socionics which says INFJ is your dual.
It's a balance thing. The idea is that two extroverts together will never give themselves space for introspection and two introverts together will never want to leave the house. Results may vary.
Admitting it is the first step. :p
I'd think this could be an intuitive mantra as well. Some sensors can be overly-literal and just accept a statement with the assumption that someone is serious about their words and their plans,...
Being competitive depends on the situation. I think it's silly when people compete so hard for trivial things, i.e. I kicked your ass at bowling!! I totally crushed you! or I got 87 on that...
ISFJ: Expectations: Extremely organized Reality: I'm a total slob Expectations: Cannot handle any change, total traditionalist Reality: I love new ideas and different ways of doing things....
Hannah: ENTJ (I thought ENFP at first but she's just so self-centered, I say inferior Fi) Marnie: ISTJ Charlie: ISFJ Jessa: ENFP Shoshanna: ISFP Adam: INTJ?
1. Si is more how my mind works I'd say. I talk do tell very detailed-stories depending on who I'm talking to. 2. I'm pretty open and at ease around my closest friends and in small groups. It...
Are you really a gypsy? If so, please tell your friends to give me my money back and to stop throwing rocks after dark.
Not considering how other people feel about something is as illogical as making it the only thing you consider.
1. Gender roles are antiquated. Every individual and couple should do what makes the most sense for them. That being said I do hope to stay home with my kids some day when I become a parent. I love...
My brother is an ISFP and he's great with computers, he's had to fix mine a few times, always helps me install the chrome add ons and he's helped me uninstall viruses I accidentally download. He's...
Sensors can be prone to depressions too. Big changes are difficult for us. Graduating college, loosing a job, ending a relationship, feeling hopeless and like there's no plan. Everyone has...
I've always thought Obama was an ENTP. Lady Gaga too.
I call bullshit on this thread. It's really not so simple to generalize how well you get along with every single person of a type in any situation. I have one very good INTJ friend that I get...
My mom is an INFJ and my dad is an ISFJ. They're both very sweet and helpful and awesome but in different ways. For example my dad will usually sit and listen to telemarketers where as my mom will...
If it'll help you relate to her more and communicate with her better, great!
It'd be really interesting to see how self-compassion as they stated correlates with type. I definitely think this can be a problem for ISFJs, Si can create a feedback loop where we're...
This might correspond to Si, so SJ types.'
