INFJ anyone?

[alwayssearchingforanswers]

I test INFJ on the Myers Briggs personality testing score and wanted to hear from any others who are INFJ,in particular to chat about relationships.
I tend to have an open,friendly front with plenty of friends but then also have this hidden huge part of me with intense feelings and complicated beliefs about people and things...I often struggle with these two parts of me and often feel like different people on different days

I am ENFP apparently. But I've forgotten what it means.

What is this? Never heard of it?

I can't remember what I was - but everyone smiled & nodded

sorry can't seem to get the link to work but just google it and plenty of info will come up.
it's been around for many years and is used to help people to understand themselves better and for career advice,life coaching etc

Ok will try now..

I am INFJ too. My husband says that I am interestingly contradictory.

I had to look up what you were on about!
As it says on the website, we can 'tune' our paersonalities & responses, as soon as we know ourselves well enough to make that choice.

Perhaps your intense feelings and complicated beliefs about people and things overwhelm you, sometimes, for lack of expression? If your personal comfort zone lies in the area of external relationships, that might mean you're great at expressing yourself on somebody else's lead. If that's what you always do, then you'll always be shaping your ideas to fit the other person's line of thought. It might be a good idea to begin expressing your own thoughts - to yourself - in whatever creative form suits you best.

You could try writing a journal, painting or talking to a recorder (or any combination). You would probably need your self-examination to take the form of a conversation. An exercise I sometimes do begins with the question: "What is my view on XYZ?" I start to write, then follow up what I have written with further questions - this helps me shape my ideas, to gain clarity. It also shows me where I might need to find out more information.

Maybe none of that means anything to you? Never mind

Found it!

Sorry I've come out as a ESFP!

Some things I can relate to, but I'm really not as out-going as it suggests,and hopefully not so superficial either!

Thanks for the website tip though, I'd never heard of it before.

I'm INTP, apparently-sorry.

Ah, I have googled mine, ENFP.

And this is INFJ, to help people with the OP.

you have to pay to take the test?

Nah, there are loads of online versions. If you pay, you are GNSO (Gullible Needy Self-Obsessed)

As opposed to TASO (Tight-Arsed Self-Obsessed), which is clearly my sub-type.

Just found a free mini-quiz here. It says I'm ENTP. The profile reads pretty much like me - but, then, so do horoscopes (all 12 of them!)

I'm not paying for the more in-depth test

Forgot to thank you for the interesting half hour!

I am ENFJ - discovered for free!

I think I may have done that test before actually. I wonder if my result has changed.

I did a course via work where we did MBTI. I am ESFJ to the extreme and it was very accurate. What fascinated me was we all had to wear our outcome as labels for the full course and every time I was irritated by someone I was able to see what personality type they were and to my surprise it was always the same type. I came to the conclusion that in life everyone should be MBTI tested and wear it as a badge. That way you could home in those you like and avoid those you dislike!!!! Sure would have saved me lots of heartache when I was dating

anyone else an isfj or am i really odd? what does that mean?

just read my profile and i dont think thats me at all.....mmmmm

ENTP.

hubliboo is ISFJ.

did the tests years ago so might be different now - but i think its funny he and I were exact opposites.

INFJ on the mini test, seems accurate from the description. Also have different sides to personality generally INF, but to operate in everyday life use the J part (description spot on on the importance of order and system in outside world for me)

ENFP for me which is correct given that I am an entertainer and writer.

On the mini test I'm ISFP, but on lots of the questions I was kind of "hmm, well, in some ways I'm like this, but in some circumstances I'd do that"... so maybe on a different day the result would be something else entirely. However the ISFP description sounds like the kind of person I'd like to be, so I'll stick with that

INFP for me - shall have to read what it means now
