Well, I am new here in this forums (see my introduction thread) and I did probably not invest enough time yet into this MBTI stuff, but I find it very interesting and would like to learn more about it.
What I started with is getting to know my own personality type. Actually all the tests I made in the last days give me the same result: INFP. However I am not really sure whether it fits completely to me.
I was surprised to see so many people here in this board and many of you seem to be already good enough to try to analyze other people on their type. I would be happy if you could help me find my personality type too
However, I am not completely sure what kind of informations you could need all. I thought it would be a good start when I give you the result I got from a test I found here:
http://www.typologycentral.com/foru...2-functions-analysis-what-s-my-mbti-type.html
I always thought in the past of me of being more a Thinker than a Feeler. That is probably because of a quite stereotypical thought of "Thinker" first. I think very much for myself, had always the reputation of being an intellectual and intelligent person, because I am mostly extremely reserved and also shy, people don't know much about what is going on in me (though there were few persons which seemed to understand me, thinking especially of one person) and I really did many things at school with ease.
I never had to learn much for school and now I am starting my studying. My school grades were not bad, though they could have been better - reason being I got my grades mostly because of the written tests and exams, I never actively wanted to take part by speaking in class, however when teachers just took me, I could say something and my oral exams went excellent.
I think I am a very introverted person, I have already written in introduction thread:
So it seems to me I fit to INFP mostly. And while I feel strong for justice, symphatisize with the weakers strongly, avoid conflicts and wish about a harmonic society, I actually am not very good in noticing other persons thinking. I often don't know how people feel and how they think often. Also I feel very unsure how people think about me personally. That is probably a reason why I am able to get along with most people, but have problems to really trust people and establish relationships. When I read in INFP profiles they seem to be able to be more emphatisizing and understanding other persons feelings.
Does this something mean? Or is it just being the cause of a very inferior Sensing ability? Or am I just overrating it and it is relative normal?

I think I am a very introverted person, I have already written in introduction thread:
I am very calm, need my own space, have big trouble going on to other persons (taking first step), in conversations I am taking a more passive role, I am very reserved to people that I am not very close too, however, with people that I am more close to I am a bit more conversational, though still then I have big problems to express my inner feels. At the moment I am quite isolated after I left school and started studying a few months ago, having lost touch to most school mates (and that left I have only a bit contact, I wish it was more), not having found new friends so far at university - I am not really happy with it.
So it seems to me I fit to INFP mostly. And while I feel strong for justice, symphatisize with the weakers strongly, avoid conflicts and wish about a harmonic society, I actually am not very good in noticing other persons thinking.
