Would you be able to type me?

[Kyora]

Hi

Thank you for clicking on this thread

I would like some help as I really don't know what I am... I'm only sure of two letters... I'm pretty sure I'm a xSFx. I've been hesitating between ISFJ, ISFP, ESFJ and ESFP. Most of my friends believe I'm an Introvert as I'm "invisible" in the classroom. I've asked a consultant at my workplace (she's MBTI certified) and she's pretty sure I'm an Extrovert but I don't know.

So I'm asking for your help. I would like to apologize for my writing abilities (I really suck at putting my thoughts into written words, my brain is a mess)

• What is your MBTI and Enneagram Type?
  
  I'm a 9w8, I think, and a xSFx.
  
• What got you interested in Personality Type?
  
  My ENFP friend She was trying to type me and ended up thinking I was an 8 INFP. Her boyfriend typed me as a 9 and ESFP (he's a 7w6 ESTP and he believes that we are alike)
  
• What kind of work do you do for a living?
  
  I'm still studying but for the moment I'm doing a student job in a Human Resources company (helps people during expatriation through intercultural coaching, etc.) and I love it I get to work my ass off (I hate doing nothing)
  
• What is the greatest accomplishment of your life?
  
  None so far? Maybe being born as a normal child and being able to grow up in a good family with nice parents (though not all the time).
  
• What would constitute a perfect day for you?
  
  A perfect day? Sunny, not too hot, being with my friends and my boyfriend and playing games all together and eating with them while laughing I love being with them as they make me laugh
  
• What are you most grateful for in your life?
  
  Being able to go to university and having lived a good life so far, being in perfect health and being loved by the people I care for
  
• Is there something that you've dreamt of doing for a long time? Why haven't you done it?
  
  Dreamt? Seeing my friend I met in 2008-2009, mostly my soulsister She's from Ecuador and I would like to go and visit her as I miss her so much...
  
• If you could change anything about the way you were raised, what would it be?
  
  Nothing. Nothing at all. I'm happy the way I was raised and I will probably try to raise my future children the way I was raised
  
• Share an embarrassing moment in your life.
  
  x) too many to share x) Maybe the day I fell at university. I was walking towards my classroom and I had to walk outside for like 20 minutes as It was far from my other building. I was walking and going up the small stairs (like 10 cm high, maybe 5 cm) and I wasn't really paying attention as I was listening to music. I did see the hot guys going down. I was walking up and then well I fell at their feets x) My bag opened and I was lying flat on the floor... They wanted to help me but I was so embarassed that I asked them to go on and forget about me x)
  
• Before making a phone call, do you ever rehearse what you're going to say? Why?
  
  Rehearse? never x) My brain doesn't work that way... even if I do try to rehearse, I forget it
  
• If you could wake up tomorrow having gained one quality or ability, what would it be?
  
  One ability? Being able to control my emotions so as not to take everything to heart as it displeases my friends, my parents and my boyfriend...
  
• What do you value most in a friendship?
  
  Loyalty and fun
  
• What is your most treasured memory?
  
  my year spent abroad
  
• What roles do love and affection play in your life?
  
  The most important role of course Without it I wouldn't work properly as I would feel left out...
  
• Your house, containing everything you own, catches fire. After saving your loved ones and pets, you have time to safely make a final dash to save any one item. What would it be? Why?
  
  My computer It contains all my pictures, it helps me talk with my friends and I can play oh now I wonder I wouldn't be able to choose between my computer and my frog toy (like a teddy bear) that has been with me since I was born and was given by my dad the day I was born
  
• Who would you want with you if you were stranded on a deserted island?
  
  my boyfriend as he is my lover and my bestfriend
  
• If you could do anything you wanted right now, what would it be?
  
  Buy a house and live there with my boyfriend... so that we would be able to spend time together (he lives 900 km away from me...)

  Play games with my friends

  No idea...
  
• How would your friends describe you?
  
  Clumsy, talkative, invisible, nice, too emotional, good housewife x), overreacting, procrastinating and messy and with a brain that has no connection whatsoever (I jump from things to things and that without any link [said by my boyfriend])
  
  

Will you be able to type me? Do you need more information? I would be pleased to provided some more

 

[baccheion]

If you register on OkCupid, answer 300-500 questions (maybe more), then send me the link to your profile, I can run a script that tries to guess your personality type.

 

[Kensei]

I'm not even going to read the rest of it xD I stopped halfway through it and decided you are so ESFP, that it's not even worth reading through a wall of information here's why:
You are very detailed in your speech, you mention the details in your story of embarassment like the time, and give imagery to the tangible things that happened(S) you mention that you love to be with your friends and your boyfriend and seem very confident in your writing style(E) you mention that you want to visit your friend because you miss her, and that seems like an emotion rather than a fact.(F) you are all about fun and spontaneous and random thins all throughout your writing (P)

 

[wolfnara]

Your answers are very short. I see sensing + feeling. ESFx because you seem so be focused on your outer surroundings more so.

[RobinSkye]

Yeah I agree with ESFP. Can't imagine anything else right now.

 

[HongDou]

WB to the forum!

I'd say ESFJ from this. Warm, friendly, adaptable, engaging, etc. It's interesting cus in the past you've seemed like a clear cut ISFJ but your answers give off a different impression. Maybe making a video could help?

But yeah from this you definitely seem like an extrovert who just gets timid at times. SFJ doesn't seem wrong - if you're ESFJ you're probably just one of the less tightly wound ones. ESFP could be right but there's some kind of "edge" that's missing.

 

[Kyora]

I believe that I went into a phase... I mean since I started university (I became much more passive and tried to be invisible in class)

Anyway I'm not sure if I'm an Extrovert but the Lady in my office asked me about my childhood and after that she said that I surely was an extrovert who might have developped her introverted side earlier

By the way, I just took the test http://www.typologycentral.com/forums/other-personality-systems/76690-oldhams-personality-styles-correlation-mbti.html

And got that:

Adventurous = 3
Aggressive = 1
Conscientious = 2
Devoted = 10
Dramatic = 6
Indiosyncratic = 0
Leisurely = 8
Mercurial = 16
Sef- Confident = 3
Self- Sacrificing = 5
Sensitive = 5
Serious = 6
Solitary = 2
Viligent = 1

Oldham's Style Myers-Briggs Types Primary Function
Adventurous xSTP (ESTP, ISTP) Extraverted Sensing

Conscientious xSTJ (ESTJ, ISTJ) Introverted Sensing

WHat is funny is that the three highest are :

Mercurial ExFP (ESFP, ENFP) Extraverted Feeling
Devoted xSFJ (ESFJ, ISFJ) Extraverted Feeling
Leisurely IxFP (ISFP, INFP) Introverted Feeling

I usually get those ESFP, ESFJ, ISFJ and ISFP when doing MBTI test (I use to get INFP and ENFP at first)

 

[HongDou]

ESFP works. You seem more SFJ to me but it's really your choice haha. But 3/6/9 types throw a wrench in any kind of typing thread so.

I usually agree with [MENTION=24824]Kas[/MENTION]'s typings so maybe they can help to (also since you just did the Oldham Style thing it made me think of them).

I still think the most surefire way to get an answer from the forum would be to make a video. Since your answers are very singular and matter-of-fact it could be easier to see how you operate in person. But obviously you don't have to if you don't want to.

Also have you considered 962 for your tritype instead? Or so/sx?

 

[Kyora]

Well It's not that I don't want to do a video, it's just that well... I'm not feeling a 100% well and well if I'm not feeling well my english will be shitty (more that it already is ) and I might end up speaking in french x)

The tritype? yes I have I believe that the 5 isn't quite right but I'm quite sure I'm a SP first

 

[HongDou]

Haha it's all good no pressure

Why do you believe you're sp-first? Just wondering!

 

[Kyora]

Well I went to a conference (smal one ) with my friend (a ENFP 4w5) [she dragged me] and the man asked some questions and we had to write down our answers. In the end, I had the majority of the answers in the SP category Then he gave us a paper and we had to speak with someone with the same variant. And to see if I was a SP, he asked me if I could open my bag and take out all the stuff inside :/

I had so many things like medicine in case I would be sick (not that often), lots of tissues, band aids (as I'm really clumsy...), etc. My bag was full of stuff for me and for others

 

[Frosty]

XSFJ, probably ISFJ maybe so/sp or sp/so? Enneagram not so sure of, maybe 2?


Tritype... 296?

 

[HongDou]

Haha that's so funny. Well I won't keep questioning your self-typing. But curious why did you carry around medicine and other first aid stuff for other people?

 

[Kyora]

Haha that's so funny. Well I won't keep questioning your self-typing. But curious why did you carry around medicine and other first aid stuff for other people?

Well because most of my friends forget that they can be hurt or have some headaches Like when I went to a concert with my bestfriend. I know how she is and I packed a lot of things in my bag for her (she always forget things). I had a water bottle, some band-aids, something to eat, etc. She was actually happy that I carried those things as she had completely forgotten My mom always told me to have everything with me (she's a ESFJ)

 

[Kyora]

XSFJ, probably ISFJ maybe so/sp or sp/so? Enneagram not so sure of, maybe 2?


Tritype... 296?

hi well I've thought about enneagram 2 but i think I'm more of a 9 but I could be wrong SP first I believe...

 

[HongDou]

Hmm...the case for SFJ continues.

I think out of everything, you seem like a (sometimes) shy extrovert. So I'm still gonna go with ESFJ but either ESF could work for you.

 

[Kyora]

Hmm...the case for SFJ continues.

I think out of everything, you seem like a (sometimes) shy extrovert. So I'm still gonna go with ESFJ but either ESF could work for you.

x) That's why I always hesitate between ISFP, ESFP, ISFJ and ESFJ x)

 

[Frosty]

Eh ISFJ's can appear extroverted, and along with INFJ's probably have the easiest time 'transitioning'(awful way to put it), between an introverted and extroverted persona/demeanor. I think it is more likely for an ISFJ to appear extroverted than an ESFJ to appear introverted, especially to the extent you are describing.

Your enneagram is more difficult though, but ISFJ seems likely. You seem very pleasant by the way and I hope you stick around, variety is the spice of life and so on and so forth.
