What type is this person?

 

[jenocyde]

Wow, sounds like an entp... actually he sounds like me when I was a bit younger *gasp*.

 

[yenom]

Thanks

But he does not procrastinate though. He can work intensely from 9-12 without rest, though he never follows a schedule.


P and J seems to be the hardest.

 

[jenocyde]

I'm like that, too though.

A typical year for me: I go through months of just being on top of everything and being superwoman. Generally in these "manic" phases, I take on so much more than is healthy for a human being - I end up avoiding all my friends and family and just work work work study study study for months. Then I withdraw for weeks at a time, barely showing up to work and plugging my laptop into my veins. I sit in the dark and just let my computer or television think for me. (I'm in this phase now, which is why I'm always on this forum...) I read and absorb and generate nothing. Then I embark on something that other people feel is reckless and dangerous, or at least out of the ordinary. After that, I have a few weeks of endless parties and social gatherings, gallery openings and dating. Then I rinse and repeat the following year. I'm pretty predictable.

I was thinking ENTP, but ENTJ seems like a good possibility.

does he have a more..
in your face attitude (TeSe ENTJ)
or
manipulative and crafty attitude (NeFe ENTP)

 

[yenom]

Well he never follows a schedule, and he hates order and routine.

But like me, he has that un your face atitude, and extremely blunt.

He belives in the power of experience , He said this: "If you want to know the taste of a pear, you must change the pear by eating it yourself.If you want to know the structure and properties of the atom, you must make physical and chemical experiments to change the state of the atom. "

meaning, if you want to learn something, you must first do it and learn from the experience. rather than waste time theorizing and do nothing.

 

[Azseroffs]

maybe you're both ENTJ

idk.. ENTx though for sure

 

[yenom]

I am definitely not a J.

 

[alcea rosea]

ENTP or ESTP

The first part seems more like ENTP and the last like ESTP.

Quite definitely xTxP

 

[yenom]

ENTP or ESTP

The first part seems more like ENTP and the last like ESTP.

Quite definitely xTxP

If you lack regard for rules , does that make you a J or P? Because I know that both he and I hates rules and procedures.

 

[/DG/]

P, I believe.

I would say that P's don't like rules.

 

[Lasting_Pain]

ENTP. Clear cut case.

 

[Azseroffs]

xNTJs aren't particularly fond of rules.

 

[jenocyde]

I think it depends on what kind of rules. I would wager to say that most NTs of any sort don't like being forced to follow external rules, but there are some that like to make and enforce rules upon others.

 

[yenom]

My friend is also an extremely self-indulgent person. Is this a J trait?
I like to enforce rules on others also if it helps reaching wa goal, but onluy when necessary.

 

[jenocyde]

Um, are you sure you are not a J? I feel like a unicorn dies if I ever have to give a direct order.

And self-indulgent could be a J trait, I don't know. But it sure as hell sounds like me. I think self-indulgence is a big part of the procrastination process for entps, but I hate to speak for all of us. I just know what I'm like. And I am very self-indulgent.

 

[yenom]

Well, no. Because I usually procrastinate for at least half a day before I sweriously get to work. And getting to work is one of the lowest of my priorirites.

Js work on self-discipline right? I don't think they seriously indulge themselves.

 

[Split_Infinitive]

Disregarding rules is not a P/J attribute, I don't think, but a cooperative/utilitarian one. So your friend is most definitely one of the utilitarian types, so an SP or an NT. Your description did strike me as quite P, and probably quite extraverted. That lovely quote about needing to change the pear in order to experience makes me say T. So that leaves us with ESTP or ENTP. I'd hazard to say ENTP, as he seems more like the nutty professor type than the selling ice to eskimos type

 

[yenom]

why P but not J?

He is also very concerned with social injustice. But I think he's a thinker because he reads alot.
