CowgirlJane 14,260 Posted July 3, 2015 Sorry...I can't write a new post with the Kindle...bug in forum. I hadn't thought much of it but some profiles indicate their personality codes. I have been tested for real but also did a couple of free online quizzes to confirm I am ENFP -the Inspirer. I am really strong on the E (extrovert) not as extreme on the other letters. I started reading about it and it was insightful to see how I might be coming across to others in a dating context. I was most surprised to find that my personality type blends well with someone who is a little less extroverted for example. I have been on a few dates with a guy who is a very confident professional musician, he is an INFP...so while introverted he is not socially awkward in groups. That actually feels comfortable. Anyway...I have recently been coming to grips with some of my weaknesses like..I'd rather start new ideas and projects over finishing old ones.... I am really working on becoming more organized and disciplined. I am also working on accepting the fact that I love change and unconsciously stir the pot but that can be very disruptive to less...flexible people. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sharonintx 1,275 Posted July 3, 2015 I do. I took the test just now. I got this: Your Type PreferencesIntrovert(67%) Sensing(1%) Thinking(38%) Judging(56%) Because you appear to have marginal or no (1%) preference of Sensing over Intuition, characteristics of more than one personality type may apply to you:ISTJ and INTJ.

AvaFern 3,516 Posted July 3, 2015 I do! I've had to take the test a few times for work and school things. I am INTJ...all day long, lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bandista 7,466 Posted July 3, 2015 I am an INFP and took the test again today just to see if it has changed any; nope. Have fun with musician dude. Bass player by any chance? My husband is an extrovert (piano). What I notice most is that, while we both enjoy being social, I require downtime afterward to recover and he does not. We've been together 25 years+ and he still doesn't really get it that I need some quiet time and silence. Not in his vocab, lol! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

_Kate_ 2,224 Posted July 3, 2015 I am a both or sometimes, maybe, depends on the situation, so a Yes/No answer doesn't really work for me. Interesting though. Kate Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CowgirlJane 14,260 Posted July 5, 2015 I think the real power in this knowledge is understanding how your traits might be perceived by others. One small example is reading someone say that "how do you tell if an ENFP is interested since they flirt with EVERYONE? I thought..I certainly do not flirt with everyone but i can and Do talk to anyone,anywhere about anything....ah, that might be perceived as flirting by some. So my take away? Next time I am really interested in someone..be very deliberate about how I am interacting in that social setting. Never really occurred to me but looking back I can see that I have missed out on drawing a cool person in and making him know I am interested. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VSGAnn2014 12,992 Posted July 5, 2015 Yup. Depending on the day I take the test, I'm an ENFP or an ENTP. And yes, @@CowgirlJane ... we DO flirt with everyone. But they often think we're just arguing with them. And just for fun, I married a complete opposite, an ISTJ. Boy, is he a classic ISTJ. I tell him, "We are so lucky to be together -- we have infinite opportunities for personal growth!" BTW, ENFPs are often referred to as those who "Envision New Fantastic Possibilities."
