Trying to narrow this down. The last time I did one of these, I got INFJ. And while I see how they formed that conclusion, I'm not sure I agree..I think I might just have strong Fi which maybe looks like Fe (plus, most of my tritype is Compliant.) But I may not be quite as educated as others on here. Thanks if you try to read all this and/or answer.
1. What makes you angry?
I think the root of my anger is feeling like people are ignoring other people's rights, and a sense of entitlement: being a rude guest in someone's house, starting conversations with people just to tell them all about yourself, any fake or overly dramatic displays which rile others up like animals instead of prompting unbiased thought. Things of that nature.
2. What do you like/dislike most about people?
I like the complexities and depth that we all possess; to me, people are like art in that sense and have amazing potential. I dislike how they often seem to keep things at surface level if it offers immediate satisfaction -- "I know I can do better than this, but this is what's easiest and/or more profitable."
3. Do you like animals? Why?
I like dogs and that's about it, lol. I love their emotional vulnerability and innate honesty, for the same reasons I wish people behaved similarly in that aspect. They're just very pure.
4. What do you like most about the favorite people in your life?
One is accepting of all different outlooks and puts people at ease just naturally, but doesn't put up with any shit either. Another one of them is the kindest person unless she sees something she feels is incredibly wrong; then she has no problem standing up for her cause.
5. What do you like/dislike most about yourself?
I like my sense of righteousness and how much I WANT to do what I feel is morally correct, even if I fail or act without enough forethought sometimes. I dislike the fact that I get blinded by what I think I should be doing on a moral level (I'm not always right about people) to the point where I screw myself over sometimes; I can be very gullible and reckless. I also dislike how sensitive I am over things that shouldn't really matter, partly because I might lash out when it's not necessary.
6. Do you care about being fashionable? Why/why not?
I care about having my own personal style, not so much being fashionable. My style matters to me because it's how I try to show likeminded people that I'm on their frequency, and it's how I represent my philosophies externally. I strongly believe in being the change you want to see, which style plays a part in for me.
7. Do you prefer to fit in or stand out?
This is complicated as it's not this black and white to me. I think I subconsciously choose to stand out but it's because I'm trying to find those kindred spirits. I don't seem to care about standing out amongst them when I find them.
8. What activities do you enjoy?
I like to write slice-of-life romance, go for long walks in nature, sing, talk to those I connect with, things like that.
9. What makes you feel secure?
When I can tell I'm being understood by someone I'm talking to and vice versa, who appears to be enjoying my company as much as I do theirs. Also when I'm alone and just enjoying myself through walking, laying in bed watching my favorite shows, etc.
10. Do you like being in a relationship? Why/why not?
Honestly..no lmao. I feel like being in relationships causes me to think about my own wants and dreams even slightly less than I would if I were alone -- relationships kind of make me more "dumb," subconsciously. But my wants and dreams are all I really have in life and I don't want restraints on me.
11. What do you love and why? Could be people, things, places, etc...
Love is a strong word I need to use carefully, so this is hard. I know I love dogs for the reason I gave earlier. I love '60s rock because the vibe back then seemed very freeing and appreciative of the 'simpler' things (like 'Waterloo Sunset' by the Kinks.) I don't want to say I love people because my perspective depends on the day.
12. What do you spend the most time thinking about?
I guess just who I want to be and the flaws I want to work on.
13. How much have you changed over the years? Who were you as a child?
I'm a lot more bold and outgoing (in the right circumstances) now. For example, up until I left college I never spoke to anyone really. But after I got out and started working, I did a lot of customer service work and realized people aren't so frightening afterall.
