'Hey! I really feel for you and your situation... although I admit it's going to be tough to get an ESFJ to change their mind ESPECIALLY when they think (or in our minds KNOW lol) that their idea is...|||Wow... lenabelle this a great topic of discussion. I have never thought about this before, but it's something I think I'm quite resolute about. I don't think I could deal with infidelity... I think...|||Thank you for the question! To be honest, I love hanging out with people that share my functions, especially my dominant, but in terms of what my mind is locked on... that's a great question. For me,...|||It's over in the ESFJ forums under the 0 replies category if you filter it. All it said was something to the tune of What do you all think about a romantic relationship between and ESFJ and an ESTJ?...|||Thank you for all of this. I will definitely do just that the next time the situation arises. The problem for me has always been that, while I will fight like all hell if a value of mine is crossed,...|||Perfectly put! That's exactly what I'm getting at! And also, I bet a relationship with another ENTP (which would imply they're equally fond of debate as a main source of knowledge gathering) that...|||You know what, I don't know the guy at all, but it was a post from him in 2010 that I dug up that inspired me to post all of this. I assume is account's been deactivated?|||No! Hahaha take them back! A few have actually been bordering on creepy. There was one that I dug up under the no replies yet category where a guy was asking for video of standard ESFJ behavior so...|||I don't think it's off topic at all, quite the contrary. My whole original reason for writing was that scrolling through the ESFJ forum, where I spend most of my time, most of what I saw was other...|||Hahaha I didn't mean that in a literal sense, but I'm amused that such a site exists. That being said, I don't know how much merit I'd put in such a site XD.|||Hey All,  So I was searching through old posts (I like to filter my posts to find those with no replies so I can give love to those that got none hahahaha) and I stumbled upon a really old one from...|||Malkovich and Word Dispenser --> Thanks for your replies.

I know I'm sort of late to the party for this thread, but I think I have an interesting perspective to add, as I've had this exact situation in my life. I had a falling out with an ENFP, really...|||I too feel like it's borderline impossible to generalize this sorts of things, but perhaps there's another way of approaching this? For example, I'll look at it from the perspective of what types...|||To be perfectly honest, I've had a tainted view of ENTPs. All the ones that I have known have been so incredibly argumentative that I just cease talking to them. It's not even that we disagree, it's...|||Oh yes! For sure! But skiing for me is a really weird thing, because I'm normally really extraverted, but I don't prefer skiing with those that AREN'T better than me. I like skiing crazy terrain and...|||[QUOTE=Zombie Devil Duckie;4216899]I like working on physical things, but I like to finish them. If I get something that I can't finish it drives me insane.  I separated physical things because I...|||Sweet! Do you find yourself using it principally as an escape or as something in which you attempt to progress with no definite goal?|||Ok so here's the thing. Last week my friends and I got into an interesting conversation about the quirks that we had, trying to relate them back to type in one way or another. Everyone of us at the...|||Oh I love this topic! Fashion is definitively something I care about. I don't follow fashion, i.e. read magazines, watch shows, etc., but I am normally the one people ask for advice, especially for...|||Great points GuitarKat :) I agree completely. I didn't really do the best job of fully articulating the thought. I don't like sweeping things under the rug either. It's just... I REALLY hate...|||Great Questions! I don't have a lot of time right now but I'll check back and probably add more later.   What is the best way to initially connect with you? --> Probably showing an appreciation for...|||Very true! We love holidays, and traditions are incredibly important for us, in general that is. It probably comes for our love of the family, and the traditions that come from that. Christmas is the...|||F! For sure. It is also what I look for most in relationships and other people in general. I'm a 30 across the board for all letters, so numbers don't show the preference, but it's what I value most...|||Hey! Ok so I can kind of give some thoughts on this combo... or at least close to it. I'm in a relationship (and LOVING it) with an ISFJ. Granted, the N/S is a big difference, but I'll comment on...|||Here's a list of some, all curtesy of one of the books I love and cite most on here, Profiles of The 16 Types, William C. Jeffries:   PM Ariel Sharon (Israel), President Dwight David Eisenhower,...|||I hope this helps some of you ESFJs understand us better. Especially you @KeepingItClassy  [/QUOTE]  Hey, like I said in my post, the remarks I gave were about INTPs that I knew. The examples you...|||While that may be the case, it would still be nice to hear about how the conversation about the MBTI with your ESFJ started out. Do you remember how you first brought up the topic? That's really what...|||LOL Thank you for this, I had a good laugh. XD|||I know how to get to them once they get to that point hahahaha. If you get them to take the test, it's easy, I mean how did you convince them to take the test? I find most very strong ESFJs to be...|||Hey Guys,  Here's my question. (and this applies to everyone, not just ESFJs, because maybe you are or know someone who brought an ESFJ to see the light so to speak, with the MBTI)  How were you...|||My life... now so good thanks to this lol. Many thanks!|||1) What differences do you notice (besides the obvious...I’m not looking for function vs. function comparison, etc. I’m looking for real-world examples of things you do differently or moments in...|||Why not? *cracks knuckles* response time.  selena gomez is lame/ wack whatever --> I don't follow her socially, but I admit I enjoy some of the remixes to her songs, never the originals mind you,...|||Hahaha yes! I love your response petit, even I say that partially if not mostly because of that last sentence XD  Very good insights, it was my feeling that youth was a factor, but I think the...|||First of all OMG ZDD WHY DO I NOT HAVE A FRIEND LIKE YOU! SO JEALLOUUUSSS! I got screwed though, VERY academic environments tend to be NT heavy so I get no love XD.  That being said, gift ideas:...|||First of all, God Bless you hahahaha. Going along with lenabelle, I'd look for ways of getting her out there, sneakily. Lenabelle gave some great ideas, but as much as we love socializing in general,...|||I really love the show, personally. I don't have time to just sit down and watch tv or a movie alone anymore, so the only opportunities I have to do so would be at a party or get together with...|||Oh really? Lol sorry, I'm completely ignorant of the medical field, I'm on the other side of the academic spectrum entirely hahaha. That being said, so that you don't have to buy it unless you want...|||Hey! You've asked a bit of a tricky question here, because if she wants to be a nurse, then I would say go for the BEST med school out there, and for undergrad go for a school that will provide good...|||Hey Guys!  I had a fun chat with a few type-conscious people today, and one of the topics of discussion were types naturally prone to internal conflicts. The two that come to mind instantaneously...|||Yep, I agree completely with lenabelle. There's a lot of good lit. already out there and available, but some of it will vary based on the ESFJ's numbers, i.e. how much they lean to one degree or...|||It all comes from our desire to not... well... fail. Not to sound shallow, but ESFJs are very conscious about their image, and I'm sure that if he's an ESFJ he has thought about the concept of...|||Oh this is great! This is something I get so much! XD   I think it's honestly because we care. You'd be surprised how much you learn when you contemplate being in their shoes. We examine the...|||I agree completely. Here's why. I don't see the happiness, the camaraderie, or the fun of the royal family. All I see is the millions and millions of dollars that they make and, imo, don't deserve....|||You're in luck! I love this question. Here are some quotes from William C. Jeffries' book on type, Profile of the 16 Type, which I HIGHLY recommend you grab. This is some data in the book, not just...|||YAY!

I've grown up and lived in a family that is almost exclusively...|||Hey there platorepublic! :) I have no data to support that this is correct, so it's all purely speculation, but I would wager that not many ESFJs run (solo that is). If there is a group of friends...|||This is so very sad, but yes, we do want you to talk about the different things that we tell you. Let me give you an example.
