ATTN: female ISTPs and INTPs

Sorry can't help you out. I've taken this test a couple times in the past, and once again just took it about a month ago and latest results are that I'm an ESFJ.

I guess I have to agree with this. The descriptions I've found are pretty accurate. I don't like being described so easily though, I like to think I'm just a bit more complex than their little 'summaries' describe me to be ;)

According to sketchy, unreliable websites I am most compatible with INFP or ISFP. However the use of random cheesy sentences such as "This is the [FONT=Verdana, Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][FONT=Verdana, Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]attraction [/FONT][/FONT]that can last a lifetime!!" make me question the websites credibility:D!

INFJ = Ni, therefore match well with Ne types. ENTP and ENFP.
I don't really know what to respond with, but I can probably answer anyone's questions..though I'm no professional. (probably know more than a lot of them, though :p)

I'm an INFJ and I have a hard time believing that I'd be a good match with an extrovert. I get along so much better (friends and romantic interests) with introverts. According to a professional analysis (done for a class), I'm slightly more N than S. I think I fit the description of an INFJ. I don't think I fit ISFJ descriptions nearly as much as INFJ.

Mine is different each time I do it. I'm an IENSTFPJ :p

Lol I was just going to say something like that. :D I did the MB several years ago and turned out to be INFJ (I believe, definitely "introverted"), but now I think I was labeled an ENFP. It's a bit of malarky to me. :|

Yeah that's what happened to me! I think I actually got the same results you did :D I was like, 'oh no, now I judge people instead of perceiving them?!' :D (MB peeps: I know I know, that's not what it means :p)

I dunno how I got from introvert to extrovert either :D


:confused:

but woop, i proclaim us to be MB twins! :preach: ^_^

Its not meant to box you in....The type you are is basically just your preferred functions. They might not even be functions you're good at....Just the ones that you naturally want to use. I'm ENTP, so my dominant function is Ne (Extraverted Intuition), but I find myself using Ti (introverted thinking, the dominant function of INTP's and ISTP's) a lot as well. Fe (extroverted feeling, dominant function of ESFJ's and ENFJ's) is something I've had to learn to use to get a long in society.

You might get lots of different types each time you take the test because you've developed the other functions well. You use different functions for different situations, with different people, for different tasks. So for that, its better to look more at some descriptions of the functions themselves rather than at type descriptions.

Personally I quite like living in the dark now that I see the "reality".

Makes me want to give every girl a chance instead of pretending I'm this guy:

I love Bob Newhart, but playing shrink isn't exactly my deal. :p

Malarky.. idk, it's not perfect, but it's better to have a window than nothing. Those who plead "I'd rather just stay stupid" only earn rancor. But I'm so immersed in another theory idk even know. lol

lol cognitive styles?

I know what you mean. Its almost hard to discuss MBTI separate of CS. It just adds a whole other layer of understanding...

Actually there is a whole book on what type goes well with what... but it's hard to decipher as it uses catch words and jargon those unfamiliar with the theory are unable to understand. I could translate! Contributors work well with Facilitators. You and Rachel were made for each other. :p

If we're thinking of the same Rachel, she utterly hates me. :p

Not that we didn't get along (rather well) for quite some time, but now she completely hates me haha.
