Questions
6. What career are you in or looking to be in? What are you doing right now to help you achieve this career goal?
Mmm... I'm not too sure, but I'm looking at doing something that involves new material and constant analysis.

7. What is your friendships like with both genders? How many good friends do you have and why are you friends with these people?
Most of my friends are males. I like to have a remarkable amount of privacy therefore I only indulge others with personal information If im very comfortable with them. As is the case with females I only devote my "valuable" time with them if I'm extremely comfortable. I really don't like sharing to much info about myself and don't like to have many relationships where that is a primary factor. I've been known to hole up with even some of my best guy friends.

8. What paranoias do you have?
None that I recall.

9. What are your vices?
Too lax on things, very care free, let things happen and adjust as they come.

10. What are your fears?
Well, I don't really have any deep seeded ones they usually come to the forefront when the need(?) arises.

11. What is your relationship like with your parents? siblings (if you had any)?
I get along great with my dad(INTJ), can discuss more theoretical and challenging things with him at the drop of a hat. My Mom(ESFJ) is a great caring person who speaks her mind and always has my best interest's at heart to a fault. I can at times be a bit of a dick with her because of my need for things to be logically sound and not based on emotions. Sisters are both great ENFP and INFJ but I clash with the ENFP a lot over things but she is surprsingly compassionate and vulnerable despite her exterior. My other sister is too nice, caring and thoughtfull most of the time it irks me, because she tries to rub these qualities of on me. She can have her bad days but she is definitely the one that is always worried about how you are and will work tirelessly in the background to make sure you're ok.

12. How are you with expressing emotion in public?
Willingly? not so much, except for anger when it builds up enough. I'm like a sieve when it comes to girlfriends.

13. How do you think people saw you in high school? How do you think people see you now?
In highschool, I think I was seen as reserved, not assertive, athletic, secretly smart and not as outgoing as others expected or would like. apparently others listened when I talked(too quick to follow my advice) Teachers on the other hand saw me as a smart ass with an annoying ability to make the unreasonable logical as I saw fit (bullshit with flair and "logically" sound connections). I got the underachiever label; Constant attention, praise, motivation shtick that used to bug the hell out of me a lot, even from peers. :D Now pretty much the same but not as explosive.

14. What do you see as the point to your life and life in general?
Just to constantly have the ability to learn and explore new things. I like to be engaged in something intellectually stimulating or rewarding. I find its the only way to feed my curiosity and passion.

Female

5. What religion are you?
None at all.

What religion is your family
?
Some sort of protestant Christian.

6. What career are you in or looking to be in? What are you doing right now to help you achieve this career goal?
I am looking to be a professor in the field of Rhetoric, and I am currently undergoing the necessary process that is the equivalent to having my fingernails pulled off one by one (grad school).

7. What is your friendships like with both genders? How many good friends do you have and why are you friends with these people?
I am in the process of gaining new friends since I recently moved to a new location and also managed to completely alienate the friends I had from back home. The process has been easier than I at first thought it would be.

8. What paranoias do you have?
None that I can think of.

9. What are your vices?
Pure laziness.

Being labeled "stupid".

My relationship with my parents is good. I definitely enjoy it more now that I'm completely away. As for siblings...I have two brothers and one sister, and I get along perfectly with my two brothers who are INTP and ENTP. There is more friction with my sister who is an ESFP, but she is okay most of the time (just not in an argument, good lord).

12. How are you with expressing emotion in public?
Never do it. The whole idea embarrasses me.

13. How do you think people saw you in high school?
Quiet smart girl who didn't work to her potential. To those who knew me better, I was slightly mischievous, but that almost always flew under the radar of authority figures because quiet, nice people don't do bad things.

14. What do you see as the point to your life and life in general?
There's a point?

2. Are you male or female? FEMALE...avatars are not necessarily representative of gender!
3. What country do you live in now? What country are you born in? USA, same
4. What cultural background are you? Pretty run-of-the-mill American. I have some recent north German background, though.
5. What religion are you? What religion is your family? I'm agnostic, my family is Lutheran

Questions
6. What career are you in or looking to be in? What are you doing right now to help you achieve this career goal?
I could be happy with a range of careers. My ultimate goal might be to become a symbolic anthropologist. Researching and teaching something I love would be amazing. I could also see myself as a translator or a tour guide or a genealogist or working in some creative field. I think working in comedy would be cool :D. But right now I'm in college studying Anthropology, Spanish and German. I figure it'll all come together somehow in the future.
7. What is your friendships like with both genders? How many good friends do you have and why are you friends with these people?
I can be friends with members of either gender pretty easily. I have about 8 or 9 pretty close friends and one best friend. All of my friends are pretty different from each other, but I don't have trouble finding elements of commonality between myself and them. I have a lot of interests, and my variety of friends reflects that :D. I have my academic friend, my goofy friend, my artsy friend...

8. What paranoias do you have?
I'm very paranoid about a wide variety of things.
9. What are your vices?
No real vices...caffeine and computers.
10. What are your fears?
Missing out on things/opportunities, feeling incompetent, not living up to my own high standards, being totally alone
11. What is your relationship like with your parents? siblings (if you had any)?
My relationship with my mom is pretty close. I can talk about most anything with her, though I suspect she may zone out a lot while listening to me. But even though she's very different than me (far more emotional and practical - ISFJ), she's never dictated my behavior or interests. My dad...drives me nuts. No siblings
12. How are you with expressing emotion in public?
Not good. I'm so chill in everyday life that when I do express emotion, I feel like I freak people out or draw unwanted attention. I particularly hate situations where you are expected to express emotions.
13. How do you think people saw you in high school? How do you think people see you now?
Ugh. High school. I'm sure they saw me as quiet, generally friendly, nerd, virgin mary. Now? Some still see me the same way (I only graduated 2 years ago), but others see me as funny, intelligent, good at reading people and situations, good at explaining things, good at making people feel welcome. They also see me as paranoid, and probably think that I don't know how to live "in the moment" - which they are correct about.
And finally....
14. What do you see as the point to your life and life in general?
I'd say to learn. Learn about everything and anything I can from all perspectives, and help to bring my enthusiasm for learning and understanding to others. Also to form relationships, but that falls under the umbrella of "learning" as well, as that involves learning about and understanding other people. I don't know about life in general, I can only speak for myself

6. What career are you in or looking to be in? What are you doing right now to help you achieve this career goal? i'm a computer tech and i'm working on moving up to manager then eventually a director
7. What is your friendships like with both genders? How many good friends do you have and why are you friends with these people? I don't socialize with too many people outside of small talk, especially not females (i get weird around them and ask too many questions). I'm definitely a loner, and only talk to someone when I need information which I usually extract from them then leave. I'm only friends with someone when they have some kind of usefullness. For example, I have friends I call just when I play basketball, or fishing, or video games. I don't talk with them about anything else other than those areas. Haven't made many friends since high school, and don't really seek any.
8. What paranoias do you have? I always wander what people think about me and if I'm doing something that justifies them thinking negatively about me. I try to go unnoticed for some reason.
9. What are your vices? video games and movies
10. What are your fears? heights, doing something I don't like to do.
11. What is your relationship like with your parents? siblings (if you had any)? parents - ok, sister - stranger
12. How are you with expressing emotion in public? Emotion is only shown in my home, or when I'm alone.
13. How do you think people saw you in high school? How do you think people see you now? People have always seen me as the funny quiet guy. I think they think I'm some kind of genious too for some reason, maybe cause I bring logic to every conversation.
And finally....
14. What do you see as the point to your life and life in general? the point of my life is to get by without ruffling anyones feathers and to not do anything to tick God off. And apparently it's to waist most of my adult life on a computer.

I want to be a Graphic Designer/Media Communications and now i'm going to school and doing freelance graphics work.
7. What is your friendships like with both genders? How many good friends do you have and why are you friends with these people?
With many women I am very teacher-like; i love to give advice and in many cases i feel credible to give it. With men, regardless of age or whether 'm into them or not, i have an air of being flirty and charming. Not sure why.
8. What paranoias do you have?
No real paranoias. I don't believe in regrets and i don't have any stresses.
9. What are your vices?
I'm a little arrogant and aggressive, and often indulgent with many of lifes pleasures.

10. What are your fears?

I'm afraid of shooting stars and getting stuck in an elevator. Those are kind of trivial, but i do best if i don't think of potential fears to clutter my head with negative outcomes.
11. What is your relationship like with your parents? siblings (if you had any)?
My parents and i fought when i was a teenager but usually we're pretty good now. I have alternative lifestyle compared to them, and they don't see why i would think differently than what i have been taught. They're both NTJ's and i'm an SFP. Very opposite.
12. How are you with expressing emotion in public?
My spectrum is relatively stable - i'm not afraid to be upset but generally i'd like to think i put up a good mood for the crowds. I want to make everybody around me happy and i know how one's mood can effect others.
13. How do you think people saw you in high school? How do you think people see you now?
In highschool I'm certain i was shy, artistic and rather disorganized; not much has changed, sadly. I guess i have more structure in my life, but not by much.
And finally....
14. What do you see as the point to your life and life in general?
To make people happy via my artsitic abilities and general optimistic attitude.

5. What religion are you? What religion is your family? Agnostic, same with family.

6. What career are you in or looking to be in? What are you doing right now to help you achieve this career goal?
I've never been motivated by this "career" thing. I'm a media producer but I would prefer to have a boatload of money and free time so I could travel the world.

7. What is your friendships like with both genders? How many good friends do you have and why are you friends with these people?
My friendships with both genders work out fine. I tend to connect and get along better with females, but I don't mind engaging in guy talk from time to time. Unfortunately, close friends are few and far between.

8. What paranoias do you have? I'm not really a paranoid person.

9. What are your vices? I like caffeine and get cranky if I miss an exercise routine.

10. What are your fears? I fear losing loved ones, though it's more of a latent fear. I don't have many active fears.

11. What is your relationship like with your parents? siblings (if you had any)?
The relationship with my parents is quite good. My relationship with my brother is choppy at times, but mostly not too bad.

12. How are you with expressing emotion in public? In public? I don't so much. In private? No problem.

13. How do you think people saw you in high school? How do you think people see you now? In high school: I was tall, skinny, and dorky. A little standoff-ish and not very friendly except toward those I took a liking to. And I'm not sure how people see me now; if I had to guess I'd say "reserved but kind". I seem to be popular with the older crowd - moms are always trying to hook me up with their daughters. :blush:

And finally....
14. What do you see as the point to your life and life in general? I haven't found a single "point" to my life. I'm always looking to make myself a better person and, through that filter, hopefully enrich the lives of others around me.

5. What religion are you? What religion is your family?
Atheist. A mix of atheism and some kind of Christianity.

6. What career are you in or looking to be in? What are you doing right now to help you achieve this career goal?
Engineering, but whatever I find interesting, really. Currently studying engineering.

7. What is your friendships like with both genders? How many good friends do you have and why are you friends with these people?
I probably have more close male friends than female, but I don’t value one gender over the other. I don’t get people who say they don’t like people of one gender. I’ve probably got about 10-15 good friends and 5-6 close friends. I’m friends with them primarily because I enjoy spending time with them, for whatever reasons.

8. What paranoias do you have?
None.

9. What are your vices?
Food, putting off things I need to do but really don’t want to, occasional impatience.

10. What are your fears?
I’m afraid of being trapped. Anywhere, doesn’t matter where it is, a physical or psychological situation. If I can’t get out, or I’m in a situation where I feel it’s likely.

11. What is your relationship like with your parents? siblings (if you had any)?
I get along alright with my parents and brother. But I can’t spend too much time with them. Family holidays lasting longer than a week were a nightmare. Family holidays could also be linked to the above question.

12. How are you with expressing emotion in public?
I don’t have a problem with it. I tend not to open myself up though, but if I’m angry/whatever, I’m not averse to letting people know.

13. How do you think people saw you in high school? How do you think people see you now?
Nerd/quiet/strange to those who didn’t really know me. Nerd/strange/friend to those who did.

14. What do you see as the point to your life and life in general?
I’m just here to enjoy it as much as possible. I realise I’m going to have to do things I don’t really want to, though, so I’m doing as little as possible in those areas whilst still maintaining an acceptable level of comfort. I plan on being insanely rich to aid this. But if that doesn’t work out I’ll settle for comfortably wealthy so that I can maximise my enjoyment.

dad's was great, truly supported me no strings attached(intp/istp? he wasn't good with Se like me haha so intp maybe XDD) felt he understood me more then anyone and never judged harshly, open minded unlike my mom(negative isfj most likely) who i have to be on guard with.
12. How are you with expressing emotion in public? pretty shy about it but if i'm with people i care about i'm okay but i do find i hold back till i'm alone more.
13. How do you think people saw you in high school? How do you think people see you now? probably a laid back individual, would talk to anyone, never cared for cliques, stand up for myself and others being picked on. didn't like be underestimated in smarts/ability. I never showed how much it hurt when i would get picked on but i would go home and cry my heart out.
I think this still stands for today but my sister said when i was 18-19 ish you have that no nonsense attitude i told her heck yeah i have too(mom haha)
me now hmmm? still a laid back individual(oh yeah haha) never sweep issues under the rug unlike my mother would like me to be(non confrontational)
for some reason i am more introverted then i used to be always loved being alone but woah lately. still naive but i have a backbone now that lets me realize where i should say no(thanks mom haha she helped me develop that backbone:yes: pretty much target practice for the future ^^P.
when I was in my teens i would actually go to my mom after feeling like it's my fault(crying for half hour/1hr)and say i'm sorry for what she should have been saying sorry for but now it's like i know i am not at fault here for how she's feeling and I did nothing wrong I haven't said sorry for her behavior in a long time(my fathers passing really developed me into better/stronger person and someone i met who saved me from her ways.
And finally...
14. What do you see as the point to your life and life in general? to stand on my own two legs and find the strength within no matter how scary it may be.
find out my authentic self and with that empower others through career possibly/my friendships.

hope i didn't ramble/bore too much ;)

Fine arts. I am currently looking into scholarships and a school in calgary and new york.

7. What is your friendships like with both genders? How many good friends do you have and why are you friends with these people?
Women bother me, but i can get along with a unique few that are laidback (this does not particularly mean they are boyish.) Males i can generally get along with; but boys i cannot. I have about 3 good friends; my brother and 2 cousins. I'm good friends with them because we're soulmates! we're meant to be together.

8. What paranoias do you have?

Procrastination.

Rejection, Failure, Betrayal, being abandoned.

Mother- love/hate. (not exactly hate; we just clash sometimes and get on each others nerves.) she's an ENFJ.
Father- :doh: i don't quite understand myself. Sometimes i get so fed up with him. I'm starting to think a lack of proper communication might have a bit to do with it. But regardless, i despise him for the most part, and yet he seems to be oblivious of it.
Brother- INTJ. We don't have a conventional sibling relationship. We have some mutual understandings on an intellectual level. But otherwise we keep each other at arms length (or at least he does).

12. How are you with expressing emotion in public?
It makes me feel vulnerable and uncomfortable. I'd die of embarrasment afterwards.

13. How do you think people saw you in high school? How do you think people see you now?
I don't know, i don't quite care i guess, since i never thought about it before.

And finally....
14. What do you see as the point to your life and life in general?
It's a mixture of apathy for the subject and the fact that when i try to think about it, a large amount of ideas swirl around in my head, so i can't really say.

Background


1. What is your personality type?

ENFP, but I keep questioning. :)

2. Are you male or female?
Male

3. What country do you live in now? What country are you born in?
The UK, always been here.

4. What cultural background are you?
Erm, British I guess? Middle-class, born and raised in a small picturesque town on the river Severn. Now I live in Birmingham, which is far more urban and exciting, though I love my home town.

5. What religion are you? What religion is your family?
I'm a (secular) Humanist, and broadly agnostic. My parents both claim to be Christian, but they're not practicing. I was a Christian when I was younger, but turned away from it when I got older. Recently I've explored Buddhism, and still practice meditation from time to time, but I'm really put off by any kind of formal religion.

Questions

6. What career are you in or looking to be in? What are you doing right now to help you achieve this career goal?
Geez, this is hard. Right now I'm a physics student, but I'm not really sure what I want from my career. All I know for sure is that I can't do a job in total isolation, I need something that involves interaction with people. Variety is important to me too, one career for life sounds like a big commitment. :( I've thought about research, scientific journalism, teaching, mental health nursing and musical performance amongst other stuff.

7. What is your friendships like with both genders? How many good friends do you have and why are you friends with these people?
Erm, I get on great with both genders to be honest, I have very close male and female friends. I have quite a lot of really good mates that I'd talk about most things with. Then I have an inner circle of 5 or so people who I would literally entrust my life with. I don't really consciously pick friends, I value all the friends in my life for different reasons. Some are great for drinking sessions, some are great for political and philosophical debate and others are pillars of support. I get on with nearly everyone in my experience and have plenty of acquaintances.

8. What paranoias do you have?
That people have a negative opinion of me, or will do if I say the wrong thing
That I'm not actually as smart as I think
That I am impossible to love

9. What are your vices?
Over-analysis, alcohol, tea. When I'm stressed I tend to develop less healthy vices and coping mechanisms. The first three are universal though!

10. What are your fears?
Rejection, failure, never finding out who I really am, dying alone.

11. What is your relationship like with your parents? siblings (if you had any)?
Pretty good. I have superb parents and I love them very much. I can happily chat to them both about most stuff, though I generally get on best with my dad since we have more shared interest. My mum is great for advice though, and is incredibly caring. I only have one brother, who is 14 years older than I am. We had a really good relationship when I was young and do again now, but we did have a dodgy period when I went through a spell of bad mental health. Reasons are complicated but mainly due to resentment on my part linking back to question 10. The important thing is we're close again now. :)

12. How are you with expressing emotion in public?

Generally fine with positive emotions. Showing weakness, especially crying, is a no-go though. I have to be alone to cry.

13. How do you think people saw you in high school? How do you think people see you now?
I don't know actually. That's really tough. Probably friendly, intelligent, enthusiastic and a little weird at times. I'd guess maybe similar now? (High school wasn't that long ago for me!)

And finally....
14. What do you see as the point to your life and life in general?
It's something I'm still trying to clarify. Learn as much as I possibly can about the world and how it works. Do something significant, make an impression. The point of life in general? I think that's up for the individual to decide.
