Hey guys! Because I'm not 100% sure what my type is anymore, I figured I'd throw this out there. I always thought I was an ENTP but after realizing one of my close buddies is one, I've begun to rethink my type (although this could be a male versus female thing). I filled out some questions to see if you guys can maybe get a better feel on me. Please ask me for clarification if some things don't make sense. Thanks for your help!
How do you respond to clingy people?
Hahah NOT well. Clingy people make me cringe. I can't even handle clinginess from my mother so I certainly don't put up well with it from anyone else. Whenever people get overly needy with me I pull away hard.
Would you consider living in the nude for a period of time (a month)?
Am I the only nude person? Because that would draw waaay too much attention. Are others nude too? Because I seriously don't want to see that ughhh.
When you are romantically interested in an individual, how do you generally act (shy, outgoing, annoying, etc.)?
I try to talk to them as much as possible but I know I come off as dorky. I have no idea how to flirt and my jokes suck. Here is an example.
I was talking to a group of people about how it's unfair that my perfect dream man, Matt Bomer is gay, and how all the good ones I like end up being gay. So this guy I've been kinda interested in and who I know has been eyeing me up for a bit says 'well...you know there are some of us left around!' and he winks and walks away. To which I reply 'well then...don't you google Matt Bomer because that'll change!'
Name a city that best represents your personality.
This took me a really long time to come up with but I would say probably...Seattle?
What aspect of your personality made you unsure of your type?
Probably the extroverted intuition. Not sure if I necessarily look for a deeper meaning and patterns in every day life. I tend to take most things at face value.
What do you yearn for in life? Why?
Freedom and variety so I can choose my outcome and never feel bored.
What makes you feel inferior?
I don't necessarily get the feeling of being inferior but I do feel bad about myself as a person when I end up hurting others that I care for (I'm a cold hearted bitch to people I don't really care for), especially when my desire isn't to do that.
How organized do you think of yourself as?
I'm not necessarily organized and I couldn't follow a schedule to save my life, but I'm very clean and I keep most things in check (my room/house/car/work area are never ever a mess), and things that matter will get done and dealt with right away. More minor things, like for example let's say...returning library books can easily get forgotten. I don't even want to mention how many late fees I've gotten because of this because it's embarrassing.
You find harmony by making sure everyone is doing fine and belonging to a given group or by making sure that you follow what you believe and being yourself?
I like to make sure people feel comfortable, but I'm not there to hold anyone's hand, and I don't consider myself a team player by any means. People that approach me I will make an effort with, but I won't go out of my way to try to be everyone's buddy because I generally don't really care/have time for that.
Are you the kind that thinks before speaking or do you speak before thinking?
I don't even speak before I think, I act before I speak before I think and adjust along the way. I definitely don't have much of a filter and I do put my foot in my mouth sometimes.
Do you prefer one-on-one communication or group discussions?
Either or, depending on how I feel. Sometimes I find one-on-ones waaaay too intense, especially when the other person really feels like clawing into my soul, but if they're cool and understand boundaries I can do one-on-one. I can do large groups as long as there is some level of coherence - sometimes I find too many people in a room can become too much of a clusterfuck and no one really gets to talk to anyone. It really depends though. Ideal amount of people for me is between 2 - 4.
Do you jump into action right away or do you like to know where are you jumping before leaping? Does action speaks more than words?
Definitely jump into things. I will think about my decisions, briefly, but my best decisions have been made quite spontaneously.
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?
Who even has a scheduled start time for a show, now that Netflix exists? I wouldn't go out if it was like a night club or a party, but I would if it was a pub or something more chill.
How do you act when you're stressed out?
I get frazzled, talk too fast, do everything at once, drive myself crazy, but somehow get everything done. Some of my best work has come out of extreme stress.
What makes you dislike the personalities of some people?
I don't really like overly emotional people who spew their emotions all over the place. I also don't really appreciate it when people read too much into everything and choose to take things personally, especially when I specifically went out of my way to not make it personal. I talk a lot and shoot my mouth off sometimes so I try to warn people to tell me to shut up or to ignore me if I become too much.
Is there anything you really like talking about with other people?
I have a wide base of interests but most about things that are tangible and achievable. I don't really do ~wistful thinking and theorizing well.
How do your friends perceive you? What is wrong about their perception? What would your friends never say about your personality?
I've been told I'm ambitious, driven, quite intelligent, dorky/funny, passionate, opinionated, adventurous, and friendly. I can see all of those, although I don't really consider myself particularly intelligent - I just bullshit well. I'm also not necessarily friendly. I'm courteous and will never be a cow to anyone, but I don't really go out of my way to be everyone's best friend because I just don't have an interest in most people. I kinda like to just do my own thing.
I don't think anyone in this world would ever call me passive though.
You got a whole day to do whatever you like. What kind of activities do you feel like doing?
Whatever the fuck I feel like. Don't make me plan for my day off.
What is the greatest accomplishment of your life?
I started a pretty successful business with my friend and it has grown more than we ever thought possible. I'm pretty proud of that!
What would constitute a perfect day for you?
One filled with adventure!
What are you most grateful for in your life?
What am I not grateful for in life? I have amazing parents, great friends, I have had some amazing opportunities, I'm creative enough to achieve most of my goals, etc. Life is pretty sweet.
Is there something that you've dreamt of doing for a long time? Why haven't you done it?
Not really. I mean I have a list of places I want to travel to but most places that have become a MUST I usually just make time and save up to go to. Most things that mean that much to me I go after right away and don't put them off too much (within reason).
If you could change anything about the way you were raised, what would it be?
I would have a sibling! That's about it. My parents are insane but awesome. I wouldn't trade them or my childhood for anything.
If you could wake up tomorrow having gained one quality or ability, what would it be?
The ability to focus on one task and not a million. I feel pretty ADDish, although that could just be my age as well. Most other 25 year olds I know are also scatter brained as well.
What do you value most in a friendship?
Excitement! My favorite types of friends are outgoing, passionate, driven and successful in their own unique ways, independent, and not overly emotional (or if they are, they don't dump their emotional baggage on me every other day because I don't put up with that shit).
What roles do love and affection play in your life?
Without it I get really bored. I fall in love all the time and am always pining after someone new. I also get bored really fast which tells me it's all quite superficial, but there have been a few instances where I really liked someone for a long time and it's been quite wonderful.
Your house, containing everything you own, catches fire. After saving your loved ones and pets, you have time to safely make a final dash to save any one item. What would it be? Why?
My memory box!
Who would you want with you if you were stranded on a deserted island?
Tom Hardy? He looks like he could survive in the wild decently well and my chances with him would be pretty high seeing as I'm his only choice ahaha. Or this beauty of a man I know who I call my Captain America who is pretty much my personal hero and could save me from anything.
If money was no object, what would you do all day?
Drink, go to the beach, travel, have sex, play guitar, write, and work on whatever new business project I have at the time.
What is your favorite book?
As I Lay Dying by William Faulkner.
How do you present yourself to the world, at work, in conversation (perhaps in your choice of clothing or word choice)?
I can come off as a little shy if I'm in a completely new environment, but I usually make myself get over it and become comfortable with the situation quite easily. Once I've gauged my audience I kinda just let it all out there...I'm loud, opinionated, I swear too much, I'm kind of insensitive, and I'm probably pretty obnoxious. I dress somewhat trendy I guess? To some degree anyway, although there are some days when I look like a hot mess but I don't really give a fuck. If people can't handle me looking gross, they don't deserve to see me when I'm done up, so fuck them.
If you could have one mythical creature as a pet, what would it be?
Umm a dragon, duh! That'll teach people to piss me off.
What do you want to be when you grow up?
A writer probably. Or just to work on my business full time.
If you were a fruit or vegetable, what fruit or vegetable would you be?
Hmm a cherry because I'm classic but can be kinda tart. (I have no idea how to answer this.)
What is your favorite beverage?
Alcoholic? DEFINITELY a good IPA or an apricot ale. Non-alcoholic I would say either Cherry Coke or carbonated water, or for healthier options just a classic orange juice.
What's the most recent cool thing you've learned?
I'm learning to play and sing a lot of dorky country songs on the guitar so probably that.
You're on death row...what's your last meal?
Chicken tenders from Buffalo Wild Wings, a bacon cheeseburger from Red Robin, and a Cherry Coke. Ooh and maybe a mango sweet tea. Aaaaand some good key lime pie.
How do you respond to clingy people?
Hahah NOT well. Clingy people make me cringe. I can't even handle clinginess from my mother so I certainly don't put up well with it from anyone else. Whenever people get overly needy with me I pull away hard.
