Hi there :hi: I'm currently confused about my type.
I've always thought of myself as an INFP, because I've always wanted to be a writer, have strong ideals and values, and take my emotions and other peoples' emotions very seriously. I also try to empathise with others, and can genuinely see multiple sides to situations.
I've taken an online test twice though, and always get ENFJ.
I also love meeting new people. But, I'm very reserved, awkward around other people, albeit friendly.
I have secretly strong ambitions, where I want to save the environment, become an expert in multiple things an create amazing, groundbreaking work; but I procrastinate a lot or become confused and frustrated because when it comes to implementing them they don't live up to my standards nearly enough. I want to do many things and others really don't see/know how ambitious I really am.
I'm have trouble knowing how to gain information frameworks, or how to spend my time effectively. I struggled with knowing what the point of everything is a lot, or what to make of the world, which makes me act strange or a bit lost.
I also rant to myself a little when I'm alone about behaviours that I'm annoyed about, e.g. when someone's hurt my feelings/been cold, or about the environment
I also have this belief that there is a deeper, more mysterious, almost magical side to life than what we see.
I've struggled with deciding whether I'm an ENFP or INFP because I find both thinking about new possibilities/coming up with ideas really energising (Ne), but also find emotional conversations cathartic and eye opening. I'm not sure that I am an Fi-dom, because I'm always scanning my external environment, but trying to find meaning in it as well.
I also considered that I might be an INFJ as most people find it hard to read me, and my emotions can be very strange. I get weirdly sad/strange about things, and am constantly mapping out the future in my mind, or pondering the nature of existence. I also consider myself more Fe than Fi, in that I try not to offend people and am very aware of others around me. I'm also very aware of time.
I'm interested in people, emotions and possibilities, and fulfilling goals. I can't talk about my ideas very well. I'm also interested in details/perfecting things, but not obsessed with it. I'm also a bit clueless about how others feel a lot of the time, I can't really "read" people although I wish I could. Although, that being said, people often agree with me when I share my insights about them into their problems/feelings/thoughts, and with people I know really well they almost always strongly agree with me.
I love socialising, but I find it shallow and vacuous sometimes, or conversations don't have a point/end result.
I also prefer structure, organisation, beauty and honesty over anything else.
