Hi peeps.
I'm often quite good at determining types of people whom I'm close to or have interacted with a number of times, but I'm pretty stuck with my boyfriend's case.
When we first met, on the second date I made him do the test and he got ISTP, with pretty borderline I-E and J-P.
Later when I had got to know him more, I took several tests on his behalf and I kept getting ESTJ.
I'm only positive that he is an ST
Some descriptions of each type that fit his personality are:
ISTP:
- Gets an incredible buzz from difficult situations (but NOT when already stressed out with work)
- Can be passive bystander until something grabs his interest
- Tends to break things down to constituent parts and does not like anything he sees as irrational
- Closed to emotional issues
- Thrill seeker and quite an adrenaline junkie (loves motorcycle, free diving, sky diving, parasailing, jet skiing, bungee jumping, etc.)
- Quite economic with words and a little terse in his communications (this aspect has improved since he's been with this INFP )
- Could be bored with too many routines and plans with too little room for changes.
- Enjoys DYI projects
- Gets bored and ignores data that hold little practical values (philosophical/deep/love/life discussions make him yawn)
- Adaptable and quite flexible
- Has a bit of a hard time being vocal about what he really thinks / wants.
ESTJ:
- Outspoken and organised
- Takes charge, brings order, structure and focus to situations.
- Dominant and quite controlling (at work, with making holiday plans with friends and me, and in his relationship with me)
- Everything has to be translated into facts and data and presented in a logical way, even "emotions"
- Has a hard time saying "No" when someone asks for help
- A bit conservative and traditional in male - female or husband - wife roles / masculinity - femininity
- Reliable, quite patient and more hard-working than most
- Needs to know exactly where he stands and what is expected of him!
- Prefers the known and rely on his previous experience
Also, he did Enneagram and got type 3.
I hope somebody could list some specific questions and analyse my answers to help me out.
