Life is a continuous case study. However, having fun is part of it as well for personal reflection and understandment of other types. Did you enjoy yourself?
Yes.

This one time however, I did not really have fun with a case study. It was an ENFJ, and I could have sworn she turned it backwards. Her personality did a full 360, and she started playing games with me. Oh god, never again.
Rarely have this happen to me (although I occasionally do it to others), but when it does I tend to feel excited, rather than scared. I would probably try and turn it into some sort of competition, and just the fact that they realize what I was doing instantly garners respect. The people who do this are the more interesting ones, and therefore more worth the effort.
I guess, but that ruins the whole "controlled experiment" aspect of it. Now I have to deal with confounds and lack of applicability, and it degenerates into a confrontation of egos. Shit, if I wanted that I'd go to the club.
INTJs are absolutely brilliant at creating convincing sounding analyses which have only rough accuracy. The INTJ is definitely happy with this, being more concerned with official, recognized success than, say, the depressing obsession with truth of the INTP.
You don't have to make excuses for who you are, WAF. I certainly don't. Besides, you can't escape your nature anyway.
What does WAF mean?
Cherish these moments.Wow, I feel like an idiot.
It's not depressing in and of itself. It's the relation of the obsession with society. Half don't care, and 48% care deeply and are deeply wrong.Lol, okay sooo.... JF, I take it that you sometimes perceive that you have a depressing obsession with the truth?

I get your point though Costrin. I guess that's the difference between you and I. This sounds kind of nutty, but sometimes I do these "controlled experiments" in my head before actually meeting with the person (i.e. before I go to sleep). I try to make the imagined scenarios as realistic as possible based off of how well I know the person, how they will react, etc. Kind of like the holo-deck on Star-Trek. Still I face a lot of unpredictability. Maybe your method might be something worth trying out.
