I feel like I relate pretty equally to sp, sx, and so.
what would you type me as?
[probable] 9w1, INFP/INFp
Social: I'm aware of most social norms, and follow them to what seems like a pretty moderate extent. I'm always interested in group dynamics, and I'm concerned when I sense tension and distance. I definitely have a strong desire to be part of something bigger than myself. Not very sensitive to criticism unless I feel it's warranted...then it strings for a while, but soon after I'm totally fine and am able to see the criticism as useful.
Sexual: I prefer conversations with only one or two people. The social complexity of conversations involving 3+ others is too much for me to handle, an intellectual overload, and I dislike the lack of intimacy. I have a drive for intensity, but I tend to be turned off by intense and theatrical people, thrill-seekers, etc. Though I realize "intense" is hard to define. I think I'm talking about unhealthy 4 traits: competitiveness, love of melancholy, contrived persona.
Self-preserving: I'm pretty lazy and can be overly concerned with my own state of mind almost to the point of paranoia. I don't have much more to say about this, but to me, sp-dom is a strong possibility.
and, if this is relevant: I'm deeply distressed by dissonance within myself and by rifts between groups of people. I'm guessing that that alone would indicate sp/so or sp/so, but I don't know. I've never had very close friendships, because I know so few people whom I can relate to on a meaningful level. Maybe that's why separations between myself and another individual don't bother me as much; I've just never experienced a break with anyone I didn't already feel alienated from.
I've looked at the 9w1 subtype descriptions, and the only one I definitely don't relate to is so/sp.
not feeling sp/so either. sp/sx is so me ("eyes and fingers of the universe examining itself, aware of how everyone is connected indirectly through the swamps of psychic muck...extrasensory decoder for the subconscious") except that I do feel significant social responsibility. same with sx/sp, which I'm leaning towards.
tl;dr
is it possible to be social last but
a. have moderate social conscientiousness
b. care deeply about the big picture and occasionally prioritize that over individual relationships and personal needs?
