How are you introverted ENFPs?

VanillaCat · 10-07-2008, 01:30 AM

I'm not really introverted, but people sometimes think I am...

One way is that I can't really hang out with someone for more than two days.
By the third day, I'll be so bored and unresponsive. It's so terrible, Lol!

And in school I'm pretty quiet in classes, but totally freaking loud at lunch and other random places, like maybe gym and stuff.

What about you?

During school, I'm the class clown, active and full of energy to the max.

Then, on some days, I just chill on the computer after school until its time to go to sleep
of course on other days I go out partying or hang out with large groups of people. I'm very social, and thus not introverted in many ways

I am, perhaps, the most extroverted recluse known to mankind.

Being sensitive has its ups and downs.

I need to feel people in order to surround myself with them, sadly, I rarely feel people so I opt for my own company instead.

What do you mean by "need to feel people"?

Yea I have an ENFP friend that is just like that. I used to think he was more ENTP, but hes definitely ENFP and a videogame nerd hardcore. Pretty much most of his good friends are introverted but that could also be because hes an artist.

It means one of two things, the first being intrinsically instigated, where I need to be in high enough spirits where I like and hence "feel" people in general, and the second being extrinsically influenced where I actually feel the people whom I am surrounding myself with, i.e. I actually like my company.

Does that clear it up, any?

Yeah that makes sense. So is it fair to say that you don't like most people, which is why you are a loner? And you are really that reclusive? I don't think I've known an extrovert to have that trait.

ahhh the old intuitive-in-a-sensor-environment syndrome. i have it horribly. i tend to be extremely quiet and can't really do small talk well.

What exactly is a "sensor enviroment"? and at the same time.. what's an "intuitive" environment?

well imo
"sensor environment" - ppl talk more about what's going on around them
"intuitive environment" - ppl talk more about what's behind the things that are going on around them. just more abstract.
