This can't be true, also INFJ, can you do the test again as INFJ supposed to be rare... :)

That explains it, only that I would say it's the other way around. |

Bull, we're not really that rare. Statements that we are rare come from a research conducted in a single high-school somewhere in the USA in the early days of MBTI. That is not credible nor representative at all. |

I took this test and once again I come up as an ENTP, and the description is still extremely accurate. ENTPs are very knowledgeable, rational and quick-witted, but they love to argue and play devil's advocate for mental stimulation and their own amusement, and can be insensitive or dismissive especially towards those who are unwilling to argue back. I think anyone on TA could agree that sums me up.

EDIT: I also find it insightful that the write-up mentions that F types in particular get along poorly with ENTPs because they strongly dislike criticism and arguing. Mr OrangestO's results come back as an F personality type and he goes around calling me "SYSTEM Jackass" for my conduct, which almost certainly stems from him taking a tongue-lashing in MD for liking some Tiesto bollocks or other. |
:stongue:
This is the first post I've ever liked of yours. High five!
OT: I would expect an Internet forum to naturally attract "I" types. |

I'm an ENFP according to the test, but I've always had a lot of close friends who were strong willed and very keen to argue about damn near everything. I feel I tend to balance them out a bit, I'm usually not very confrontational and don't harbor much interest in winning arguments, preferring to help them think a bit and ask some questions here and there. In the end i find these people tend to welcome a break from constant conflict every once in a while.
What the description says:
| quote: |
Generally, ENFP friends are likely to be quite idealistic and sensitive. Every stick has two ends and the ENFPs’ sensitivity is not an exception – it enables them to connect with their friends and acquaintances very easily, but also makes the ENFP very vulnerable to criticism. This is why ENFPs tend to avoid people with strong T and J traits – those personality types are likely to have strong opinions about a variety of topics and the ENFP is likely to feel quite uncomfortable arguing with them.
|
Thing is you don't always have to argue in that way. Although I'm often offended by rigid thinking patterns i do not let that compromise my relationships with people, often assuming the role of social lubricant.
I haven't had a fight in ages either.
Some more thoughts:
| quote: |
People with the ENFP personality type tend to be curious, idealistic and often mystical. They seek meaning and are very interested in other people’s motives, seeing life as a big, complex puzzle where everything is connected. Not surprisingly, ENFPs tend to be very insightful and empathic individuals – this, plus their charm and social skills, often makes them very popular and influential.
On the other hand, this can also be a disadvantage as the ENFP is likely to worry about not being sufficiently original or spontaneous. If they are not careful, this personality trait can lower their self-esteem.
|
This is spot on.
| quote: |
ENFP personalities are usually characterized by high levels of enthusiasm, especially when it comes to things that spark their imagination – in such cases, ENFPs can be very energetic and convincing, able to easily convince other people to join their cause. Ironically, this trait can also turn against the ENFP, when they suddenly find themselves in the center of the stage, being seen as leaders and inspiring gurus by other people. ENFPs strive to be independent and, unsurprisingly, do not always welcome such attention.
|
Possible, although i generally tend to avoid such situations.
| quote: |
ENFP personalities are very emotional and sensitive, seeing feelings as something that everyone should take time to understand and express. However, this trait can also cause a lot of stress for them as ENFPs may often focus too much on other people’s motives and possible meanings of their actions. People with this personality type are observant and intuitive, but can make serious mistakes trying to use their interpretation of other people’s emotions as a basis for their decisions.
|
Haven't had anything too bad happen on this regard. But i can imagine. My mind is very chaotic in general and I'm often rather selective in what i hear. Which doesn't half annoy people sometimes.
| quote: |
ENFPs are also likely to have difficulties dealing with routine, administrative matters. They are more interested in freedom and inspiration than security and stability, and this attitude is usually clearly visible – an ENFP would rather try to come up with an interesting solution or an idea, no matter how difficult that is, than deal with simple yet boring tasks.
|
Oh yes.
| quote: |
People with the ENFP personality type know how to relax, drawing on their imagination, enthusiasm and people skills – for instance, they can be very serious and passionate about work during the day and then let off steam in a wild party in a nightclub. This switch between the two modes can often be instantaneous, often surprising even their closest friends.
|
I'm honestly never very serious regardless of the situation. Can get really uncomfortable sometimes, but I like relativism too much.
Then again my job doesn't exactly involve a lot of responsibilities so who knows.
| quote: |
Finally, ENFPs are non-conformists, following their own path and trusting their intuition. Their talents are numerous, but they all rely on the ENFP being given enough freedom. People with this personality type can quickly become impatient and dejected if they get stuck in a boring role, unable to freely express themselves – but when the ENFP finally finds their place in the world, their imagination, empathy and courage are likely to produce incredible results.

Yeah... I'm not exactly there yet but hey. I do love to dream. :p |

Actually I meant that I don't think I'm like Jay at all, or he's a different person in reality.
I also draw the conclusion not to take that the rare part too seriously.
Or INFJ's just love trance ;)
I thought it was interesting to see the difference between System-J and Bierheld here especially for the F part. |

| People just love being told they are unique/special. Bunch of fags. You aren't special OR different. :stongue: |

Yes, a test that defines you as one of sixteen pre-determined personality types is most definitely telling us we're totally unique.
You're pretty special Jenny, but not in the good way. |

Look man, you're the one all glowing over how "accurate and incisive" a ing personality test is (you did it when you were 15? and you're still the same person??? HAHA). Confirmation bias much? Fag.
Additionally:
The INFJ type is believed to be very rare (less than 1 percent of the population) and it has an unusual set of traits.
you.
:stongue:
edit: I bet you have your "type" tattooed on your . |
