Also, how does that compare with your actual type?

Friends - ISTP or ISTJ

Family - ISFP or ISFJ

i think my friends and family would agree with INFP.

maybe INTP to some people, but not if they knew about the functions.

my mom thought I was an enneagram 5.

Everyone I've asked thinks I'm an ISTJ, usually with the least certainty regarding the J/P (but I'm sure if they knew about functions then that would clear it up).

I imagine INXP 5 or 9. Those who know me best would find it easier to see 4w5.

ISTJ or INTP. Sometimes ENTP.

Enneagram 8, 7, or 5.

I don't know, I'd have to ask them.

If I were to guess (which I am not confidant with), I would say most would correctly guess me as ENFJ. The more they know me, the more they'll likely guess this. Another set would guess me as ENTJ (in particular in a work environment). A lesser group would guess ESxJ. So ultimately, at least ExxJ. I doubt any would guess me as an I, and no one would ever mistake me as a P.

Edit: My mom would guess I am an introvert. That's because she's seen more of my internals come out than anyone else.

Enneagram wise they would all type me as 1w2. That one is very very obvious.

This. People often think I'm an extrovert too, that's only because I've learned to fake it. My enneagram is very obvious, much more than type and this is where people thinking extrovert comes from too.

real type: ISFP. Introversion and Feeling are painfully obvious.
how most of my family would type me: probably INFP
most exes: ISFP
friends: mostly ISFP, but I think at least one would say INFP
people who only know the surface: an ultra-stereotypical ISFJ (quiet, dutiful, orderly, uptight, a bit of a goody-goody). I am none of those things except quiet (and maybe a bit uptight).

Different parts of my personality come out with different people -- some have seen my S side more, others have seen more of my N side. I think my ex-boyfriends (ESFP and ESTP) and my ESFP friend brought out my Se more and therefore would type me as ISFP. Interestingly, most of my family and one of my friends (an ISTP) seem to think of me as this reclusive bookworm type and would probably say InFP.

My family I think would be spot on, although maybe my parents may go more for INTJ.
Friends I think would say INTP too, except I think a few of my more introverted friends consider me extroverted so ENTP for some.
Acquaintances I reckon would think I'm ISTJ, and for the guys in my design group I reckon they'd think INFP.

As for enneagram I think a lot of people would see me as a 6 actually.

No idea, one thing I do know is that INTJ has zero payoff in my workplace so I don't go there.

Coworkers who don't know me would think ISTJ or INxP 9.

Friends with who I'm more outgoing would see me as ENTP or ENTJ.

Family members would see me as INTJ or INTP.

Depending on the depth scale, I can chameleon other types quite well and I supposedly am an INTJ 5w4.

My family and friends would probably agree with my being an SFJ (of course, this is assuming they'd actually understand MBTI; hardly any of my friends are into it).

My mother says I am either an ENTP, an ESTP or ENTJ to her (she is into mbti as well).
I don't really know what my father would say.
About friends, among those who know about mbti, I've been types either as ESTP, ENTP, ENTJ or ISTP. I think the others would type me as one of those as well.

Sadly, I don't think any of them stupid enough to think I'm any type containing the letter E.

Probably INFJ. Other people tend to insist on that type for me more than I do. I was more organized and driven when younger, so I think they would typically say J. It's funny because I am organized, structured, acting, upon ideas and concrete objects, but when it comes to people I'm the opposite. I can organize events, can enjoy reasoned debates, and I keep my stuff organized because i could never find anything otherwise, and it makes me feel anxious to have random piles of stuff around.

My social interface is less J than it is for most Ps (if that makes sense). I think that's what Ni does to Fe for some people. Last week a young teenage student declared in a lesson, "you're not a teacher! I was talking the whole time you were and you didn't tell me to stop." It made me feel a bit discouraged, but I know she didn't mean anything by it. She kinda blabs with a limited amount of control over it, and she's cute, smart, I like her, so I just ignore what comes into conflict with what I'm trying to do - hence the conversation problems. I lack the ability to force people to do anything - even within the normal range of what I'm supposed to push. My INFJ brother is the same way, and my Fi-dom mother and sister to a point, but my sister can feel more directive in a way. She is still extremely Fi-dom P, though.

My parents and almost all my friends have agreed with ENFP.

The one exception is my ESTP bestie thought I was either ISFJ or INFP. :laugh:

Enneagram-wise, I could see some people typing me as 6w7 instead. But any friend who I've shown the 7w6 description to has agreed with it for me.
