Hi, everyone. I (female XXXX, here) & my guy (male XXXX, not here) have settled on what seem to be our most likely types. But after a notable amount of time together, I'm beginning to wonder if one or both of our typings are off. Would be interested in an outside point-of-view on all of this...
ME:
HIM:
Not sure if this is sufficient. I saw a thread with questionnaires, and I can fill one out, if needed; just let me know. And thanks for your time.
ME:
- Value nonconformity & independent thought. Welcome variety and the unexpected.
- Absorb information, voraciously.
- Inquisitive.
- Open-minded.
- Uncoordinated. Struggle to pay attention to what I'm doing (physically). Knock things over, walk into things, etc.
- Phenomenally lazy. Not proud of that, but yeah.
- Need a lot of alone time.
- Internal "cross-cut shredder" (bf's words, not mine). But not in a judgmental way ...more like analytic critique. There can actually be something almost neutral about it.
- Tend to be quiet. However, when I do speak, I'm often sprawling, covering a lot of ground.
- Well-intentioned, but can inadvertently offend people if I'm not careful. Don't have much of a natural filter. ("Gentle spirit; Coarse delivery.")
- I notice tons of things about people. When I voice them, people can feel examined, so I'll often just keep these observations to myself.
- Get strong hunches that I have difficulty explaining to others.
- Sympathetic.
- Get upset when people treat each other like crap.
- Prone to "do-gooder" fantasies.
- Despite what I just said, I'm not especially in-tune with my feelings. I only notice them when they're slamming me in the face.
HIM:
- Goal-oriented. Planner. If you offer an insight, he'll immediately want to know what it means in terms of action.
- Continually scanning for problems to solve. Happiest when he's productive or making a worthwhile contribution.
- Determined, to the point of fixation. Will not give up without a struggle.
- Joker (lots of double-entendres, wit, and wordplay).
- Always pointing at stuff he finds interesting, and saying "Look at that!" ("Look at that tree! Look at that building! Look at the sky!") Frequently distracted by things in the environment.
- Judgmental, with high moral standards. All about integrity & justice.
- Perfectionist.
- Anxious tendencies.
- Will research for ages before making a decision.
- Alert to what doesn't make logical sense.
- Has been described by multiple people as "professorial".
- Drawn to various sorts of physical/sensual exploration: dance, music, food, sex, wine, nature, travel, etc.
- Sees himself as sensitive, but that's not really the outward impression he makes. Can come across as tough/stern/challenging, especially if he doesn't trust a person (ex: salesmen).
- Recognizes symbolism easily, almost to the point of over-interpretation.
- Interested in emotions. But not interested in most people.
- Idealizes simplicity & authenticity.
