I've been trying to type an ESFJ, one of those ESFJs who gets Fe-Te-Ti-Si on cognitive function tests. The hyper-Js.

She is quite emotionally volatile and hypersensitive to others. She has this fear that her friends will leave her and fears their judgment. She is driven, has materialistic tendencies, describes herself as "overrationalizing everything" and hates when people tell her to ease up. She is a exceptionally caring and conscientious friend. She loves social interaction, loves and sometimes prioritizes sex, loves social convention (read: prom was a cluster fuck of tension for a solid month, already has her wedding planned, etc.) and climbing the ladder. She always prefers to be in control and wants to function as the concrete pillar in the middle of our shared circle of friends and can be pushy.

I have been completely unable to enneatype her. Anyone who can help would be greatly appreciated. Feel free to ask for elaboration.

Could you elaborate a bit more please? I'd say 6w7 or 2w3 (maybe) at this point, which is pretty common for xSFJs (I got a workmate to take the test and she scored high on 6 and 2 as an ISFJ). Hope that helps.

I'm no expert; but sounds 2w3 to me.She sounds a lot like this ESFJ 2w3 so/sx I know who thinks she's an INTJ for reasons unbeknownst to me :dry:.

[MENTION=15964]Planetary Walker[/MENTION] Thanks for the help. She is this strange blend of dramatic and conscientious. She has perfect grades but leaves intellectual pursuits and desire for knowledge at that, which maybe rules out 6w5?

I would be more inclined to say 2w3 then, but I still don't think I have much information to really draw a conclusion. If I were to say e6, I would say 6w7 over 6w5 then, so yeah. I'm not an expert either but I still think I can help with what little knowledge I have lol :)

Based on the OP, I'm thinking she's a social 2w3.

What is it about her that's confusing you regarding typing?
