Thinking I'm an ISFJ, but not sure

I would guess E over I.

That's a definite possibility, as I did score ESFP on a test pretty recently. I'm not sure why I got E over I on that test, I forget. If you could, why do you think I'm E over I? I'd be interested in hearing why you think that. (All this personality stuff is so interesting to me.)

Haha, me too

13. It's Saturday. You're at home, and your favorite show is about to start. Your friends call you for a night out. What will you do?
I'd either lie and feel extremely bad about it and want to call them back but fear that the plans without me were already made, or I'd just go and forget about the show. If I was in a good mood I'd definitely forego watching the show and go out with my friends.

19. You got a whole day to do whatever you like. What kind of activities do you feel like doing?
I'd probably go out to populated events so I could meet and hang out with new people (Specifically, I want to find a partner and hang out with them, get to know each other, and make love.). I don't know if I can see myself fulfilling that wish, but I don't like being so resigned to this lazy 'eat/sleep/watch TV' life so I really wanna get out there.

ISFJ (and 9w1), because of your reaction to non-comformists, your pre-determined automatic responses.
"I either look up new information and run through it in my head or just theorize." That's rather vague, but I'll put it in the Sensor category. It depends on what you're actually doing with the information. Sounds like a preference toward introversion, either way.
http://www.personalitypage.com/ISFJ.html
"They constantly take in information about people and situations that is personally important to them, and store it away. This tremendous store of information is usually startlingly accurate, because the ISFJ has an exceptional memory about things that are important to their value systems. It would not be uncommon for the ISFJ to remember a particular facial expression or conversation in precise detail years after the event occurred, if the situation made an impression on the ISFJ."

Internalizing feelings is an ISFJ trait.

Mal to the rescue!

Mal to the rescue!

That'll be $5 please!

 

[Honor]

That'll be $5 please!

I'll take my 10% cut

Hey, thanks for replying, and special thanks for that startingly accurate definition of how I store memories. Looking back on the question in which you quoted my answer, I think I didn't read the question accurately. If I want to learn about something new, I look it up online and think about all these possible situations I or others could deal with--fantasies. The stuff I read about has to do with psychology, self-destructive activities, etc.

How about I be so kind and give both you and Mal $5? Hell, make it $10!

Yay!

You sound like some of the ISxJ's in my research program... there are more than often expected in there

Fantasies of a concrete nature? Nothing paranormal, futuristic...

 

[Mal12345]

The fantasies about me are usually either ones where I hit rock bottom, a few years from now, or where I have a career as a cool, quirky-ish actor, also in a few years time. They're fantasies that help uplift me a little (yes, even the 'rock bottom' ones in a way). My answers on this question keep changing by the second, because now I don't even think I have fantasies about other people, unless I'm involved in some way.

Rock-bottom in what way?

 

[LittleV]

Huh, really? I wouldn't expect a whole bunch of them in there, maybe only a handful. What other careers do you see ISxJs as typically being into?

In the program, they're often the ones who'd focus more on rote memorization/structured teaching rather than implementing research... but they're very thorough and productive. I'd generally see ISxJ's in many places: (during my undergraduate career) they'd tend to stay further away from philosophy or the physical sciences (physics/chemistry)... while gravitating toward engineering/math, business, psychology, biology, etc. So... you could imagine the many careers that would fall under those majors.

 

[Mal12345]

"Rock-bottom" as in 'I end up living on the streets, addicted to drugs and selling my body' type of rock bottom.

How much would you charge? Would it vary?

 

[Mal12345]

Granted I'm no expert in the world of prostituting, but I would prefer for my customers to set the price. If I couldn't do that, then I'd go pretty cheap and make the prices vary based on the sexual acts I'm doing.

Kewl. I may just be in your area in a few years.
