'I'm inclined to say that you're is a Ti user. I really don't see factual details in your written-out thoughts so much as I sense clarity and precision in the presentation of ideas. That's not to say...|||Hi pik--thanks for the cultural perspective. I'm aware that my mother loves me, although we've learned to keep each other at somewhat of a distance most of the time. I have a hard time conversing...|||Hmm. I will consider it nonetheless. Plus, the chance of me changing her mind is practically zero :rolleyes: I don't believe she knows much about MBTI beyond each of the basic binary traits.|||Well I don't think MBTI and the Enneagram are necessarily independent. 5-dom people are predominantly IxTx, 8-dom ExxJ, and the list goes on.   And when I say she's out of the house a lot, I mean...|||Not being well-versed in MBTI, I'm not familiar with either of those types, but I'm inclined to say that she's more ENFJ in that respect. For several months, several times a week, she kept attending...|||Yeah, that's something I thought about, too. I think women in southeast Asian cultures are expected to be more submissive in public.   She is capable of having quieter, more relaxed discussion, and...|||The context to that quote, life is centered around conflict and stress, is when I tell her that she doesn't need to be so demanding and upfront. She has said that several times, but in particular...|||So I'm an INFP, and for some reason I'm naturally averse to the idea that my mom has the same type as me. She's such an inflexible thinker, so surely she can't be! But she claims she took a...|||Now that I think about it, you seem reminiscent of INFP in several ways. As an INFP, I'm very emotional, but I have strong skills of analysis. I think you're drawn to science (esp. cognition and...|||Well, each MBTI type is formed by a functional stack, consisting of one introverted Judging, one extroverted Judging, one introverted Perceiving, and one extroverted Perceiving function. For example,...|||Ahoy, ye lasses. Glad to have you two in here--you both seem very enthusiastic. Us INFP's are just so lovable :P  I'd also advise you check out the Enneagram, since you're here. It's a wholly...|||There have been important people with less-than-genius IQ's. Feynman had an IQ of 125, and Crick's IQ is purported to have been 119. They both received Nobel prizes. On the flipside, though, those...|||Eh, I didn't think about the fact that INFP is Te inferior. I suppose it's easily possible.|||Usopp from One Piece.   Hmm, I've never thought about this before. Some people say he's an ESFP, others ENFP, ENTP, ENTJ.. I even saw INFJ once. He's imaginative and tells stories. He tries to lie,...|||On SD16, yes. 160 SD15 = 164 SD16, whereas 160 SD16 = 156.25 SD15. I'm assuming you know that the difference is small but not trivial. I'm not sure where you live, but I'm thinking in SD15 because...|||MBTI and socionics (not socionomics) assesses personality traits and how you process information. I think you should consider socionics, though. It's a novel pursuit of adding more rigor to MBTI, and...|||When I was 8 years old, I got around 135-140. Now that I'm 16 and on ADHD meds, I test closer to 145-150. I suspect that my IQ is closer to between 140-145. But in any case, those IQ's are sufficient...|||Phew. That was quite a ride, lol.   You definitely seem very Ne-Fi to me. You're attuned to possibilities and ideas in the external world (Ne), and you search for them according to your personal...|||I don't see any Te in you, so that rules out INTJ and INFP; you seem more Ti. Your concern for others and ability to influence or cheer them up also suggests Fe to me.   My brother is an INTJ, and...|||My first guess is INTP. You're perceptive, open-minded, and laid-back, and you repress your feelings in light of whatever is considered to be the objective truth. You're definitely introverted, and...|||You seem strongly ISFP. I HATE being misled is very characteristic of Se to me--you're acutely aware of personal space and territory. I also think that your gut feelings about people and your...|||Good lord, you're being dodgy. He's not asking how you see Se, he's asking how you personally relate. How does it connect to your experience? What qualities of your experiences are Se-like? Dude,...|||@OP: You seem more INFP in that you lack precision when you express your ideas. Grammar and spelling mistakes also aren't really inconsistencies, per se. I get the impression that you're more Fi than...|||Instinctively, reading OP suggests to me that you're a 5w6. You hoard knowledge like a 5, and I feel that you are more of an independent thinker than a 6. The 5 is an ego type, while the 6 is a...|||Pardon me for playing devil's advocate here, but I thnk INFJ's are about as evil as anyone else. Perhaps we are predisposed to falling prey to false causes, but it's not as if we're the only ones. I...|||Born unto this earthiness, dirt under your fingernails Shrouded in darkness, placed into a world Of no meaning; no fulfillment; no joy This endeavor is futile.  Dig away at the emptied earth. The...|||1. no one 2. a panda 3. glance at it and move on 4. huge 5. no 6. candles, artifacts, paintings, glass objects 7. plastic 8. glance at it and move on 9. lake 10. fly over it|||though i understand why some people are not as proficient at certain academic subjects, i never really related to that too well. i've always been very good at most subjects in school. i am not as...|||the INFP's dominant and auxiliary functions are Fi and Ne, respectively. by extroverting our intuition to support our introverted feeling, or emotions, we create a reality based on our intuition in...|||haha, i know that feeling to a great extent. i've had a bit of a disaster in the past year after falling for a certain girl.   american society is so strongly centered on hedonistic principles....|||INFP's have a habit of idealizing the world around them in order to cope with reality. unfortunately this is not a healthy coping mechanism, even in the situation of two people maintaining a romantic...|||Africa - Quartered|||i cant say ive been successful in dealing with my depression, but here's a few coping methods i've discovered:   listening to happy music. music is an excellent tool for controlling your thoughts....|||i've been practicing the sport of fencing since i was 8. it's a neat sport and encourages individual development more so than any other sport i know of, both mentally and physically. i'm ranked...|||docs.google.com/document/d/1stLRQLSsbE_w92WKeWUmsJo-aTwen30lfTXHI0x9now/edit  please don't judge me!
