I have taken the MBTI test several times now and each time it shows me to be an INFJ or an INTJ, but the T/F only vary by about 1% either way. Could it be that the questions are not thorough enough? I'm pretty sure I'm an INFJ but I am also pretty sure that I have a highly developed T. Anyone care to help?How common is it to walk the line between T/F?
Things about me that might help. I don't like to talk about my feelings in public. I rarely, if ever, cry in front of people and while I may be touched or moved by a situation, I probably won't sound touchy/feely but will try to "just be there" and "just listen". I like a schedule but I always schedule "free time". I like a skeleton outline better than a hardcore schedule and I love an occassional free day. I love things that challenge my mind and make me think. I like puzzles, problem-solving, etc, but I also love to write poetry and stories (novels, actually). I will write a science fiction story then turn around and write a heart-warming coming of age tale, both of which is well-recieved by my readers. I love nature. I hike. I camp. I fish. I practice baguazhang kung fu. I used to be a cross country runner and loved it. I still like to run and exercise. But I also enjoy translating ancient manuscripts. I speak Spanish, some Cherokee, Lakota and English. I can read and write in Latin. I love languages and have a library of dusty old books to help me translate Greek, Hebrew, Nauhatl and other languages. I don't like angst, complaining, whining, negativity or "dark poetry" about sucky relationships and so forth. I like poems about nature and the "bigger picture" of life. I made top grades in Biology, Astronomy, Art, Linguistics, Literature, English, all kinds of History courses and have a keen interest in Cosmology [I've written secret papers on it that I haven't the nerve to publish yet]. As I write this I realize that in real life I walk a fine line between T and F and that sometimes my J isn't terrible strong. I am certain of the introversion and of the inutition. I have had tremendously accurate premonitions my entire life and therefore, I had to start looking for a logical way to explain their existence. I also have to think about a thing before I know how I feel about it.
Okay, that should be enough. I look forward to some help from other IN people. Muchas gracias.
