I've been pretty sure I was a 4, but now I'm starting to think type 7.
4ish traits
-fear of being ordinary
-deep convictions
-disatisfied with lots of things
-intellectually deep
-introverted (well, I'm certain much more introverted than most ENFPs I know)
-enjoy things that are dramatic
-not knowing my personality type is frustrating
-extremely self absorbed
-if something is wrong with me emotionally, I stop everything to fix this problem before going back to whatever else I was doing
-as a kid I was extremely weak and lacked self confidence. I am strong now, but it was totally not there to start with
-acute self awareness.
non 4ish traits
-don't struggle with envy
-not melancholy
-no connection with type 2
-don't struggle with strong emotions
-extremely low neuroticism (the only thing that really freaks me out is physical pain and this is probably a self preservation thing more than anything)
7-ish traits
-perpetually wanting to be a kid
-hedonistic/pleasure seeking
-into fashion and beauty
-like to be noticed (I don't feel the urge to be excepted, impress people or gain people's affection, but I do like the "whoa! who's that!" factor)
-1 sounds like my stress. I do turn kind of "sinners be judged!" under stress and become more formal and authoritative
-Head center sounds more like me than feeling center
-I have extremely sophisticated tastes and am very picky about things I'm into such as high grade tea or opera
-I require a lot to function properly (if I am uncomfortable, sleep deprived, deprived of good food or go for a long time without tea, it affects my performance quite poorly)
-7s are said to make an "entrance" whenever they walk into a room. that is SOO me!
-not self conscious at all
-7s are said to precieve themselves as extremely high value even when on the outside they have nothing. if this is true, that definitely sounds like me
-I tend to get addicted to things (although I usually get more addicted mentally than physically. for instance, I find day dreaming extremely addicting)
non 7-ish traits
-introverted. I could be wrong, but I see an EP 7 being much more extraverted than me (perhaps I'm really an INFP 7)
-not materialistic (I care little about quantity, but I am very picky about quality)
-I don't feel I am quite as light hearted as a 7.
-not shallow (perhaps this is a misconception about 7s, especially NF 7s)
-I sometimes enjoy being serious (although I can't keep it up very long)
