Ok so I'm currently on a job and living and working with this woman who I think desperately wants to be an SP.
She comes across as an ISFP i think when you first meet her. She doesn't stop talking about her interest in extreme sports- you name it, she does it all the time. Horse riding, snowboarding, MMA fighting, surfing, Playing with guns. It's like she totally wants to be the ultimate action girl. But when it comes down to it she is just a beginner dabbling in all these sports, so she can talk about them but in reality she has tried them all but isnt much good at any of them.
I had to ride with her the other day for work but when it started heating up and we had to gallop she got scared and didn't want to do it any more so blamed an injury and got off.
At home her room is immaculate and tidy, her clothes are perfectly ordered, her hair make up and nails are always perfectly done. None of this seems SP to me. And she moans all the time about her neck, her ankle, not liking her job etc etc. While trying to be all nicey nice.
Basically I can't figure her out at all. Why fake it? Anything anyone else has done she does it too. Why not just be yourself? I cant figure out what she really is at all. Maybe ISFJ? Maybe infj? Its not even really a personality type thing, I just don't like not knowing what someone is about... I don't like falseness! Is it just me that I can't see through her? The other girls found her really false right from the start but it has taken me weeks to start seeing it.
Any ideas why people behave like this? Why fake your personality and how the hell do you keep it up? Anyone know someone who fakes it?
