Reaction to whole thread:
Oh, ferk, no!!!!!!!!!! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Where are all these Ns coming from?
The next time I hear some durpety durp durp call Alice an ENFP, I'm gonna puke on 'em.
No one in those books was an N....no one...that I can see.
"Oh, yay, they tell the future and read minds, so they must be Ns."
***red error buzzer***
These were senses to them. Sixth and seventh senses, sure, but senses nonetheless. As soon as he meets someone his senses cannot penetrate, he's LOST. Same with Alice. She cannot 'see' past the werewolves and their 'stench'. Oh, yeah, guys really ENFP right there. Organizing parties and decorating everything like crazy. Loves shopping and fashion. Correcting shitty fashion. Organizing other people's weddings. Always doing shit for other people even when they don't ask. Overbearing, overexuberant. The hostess of parties galore. Sounds really ENFP to me. /end sarcasm
And Edward. Sure, he's smart, creative, loner, strange, and musical, yay he must be an N. WTF? There are wayyyy smart, observant, creative, great SJs that also think outside the box when need be. I really, really, REALLY don't see the N though. Sure I guess an NT can act all overprotective and stuff with people they love and also feel intensely, but it is not about that.
Granted, I have no idea, maybe he is an INTJ...but I really, really, really think ISTJ.
Edward: ISTJ
Bella: ISFP
Jacob: ISTP
Alice: ESFX
Emmett: ESXP
Rosalie: XSTJ
Jasper: ISFJ
Carlisle: ESFJ
Esme: ISFJ
Reneesme: ISFJ
The mother: ESFP
The father: ISTJ
Minor characters: mostly SPs except her BFF who is like a raging ESXJ. The pack of werewolves are mostly SP/SJ; the vampires are nearly all SP/SJ;
Seriously, the redeeming quality of the books is that you can get lost in a world of thought so different from you own. And that it is so easily written that you don't have to think - Ã la Harry Potter.
I don't relate to any of those characters. Really. The closest one I MIGHT come to is the mother. Maybe. But still, I wouldn't be so in the moment - "Let's get married when I'm still 18 and have a kid and run off 3 months later, and marry someone 20 years younger than me 20 years later, and scurry here and there." I'd be thinking, "I cannot get married now, holy shit, I wanna go to college, and get a good job and have a career, and I don't want a baby, I'M still a baby, and that's so much responsibility, and well, I want to do this and that and that and that......15 years from now I'd really regret it and probably freaking hate my kid because I was still a kid, and my kid would hate me, and I don't want that either. Besides, who is this fuckwit I'm with? I hardly know the guy. And I'm so incompatible...totally not doable in the long term, and who wants to live in a stupid shithole like this my whole life? Oh nooooo, hell no, I'm moving on, and byeeeeeeeeeeeee!"
