I have discovered some new qualities about myself, and would like to be re-typed based upon the new information I will be sharing.
I would describe myself as a bit of a wanderer and daydreamer. I seem to act on impulse and not have many plans or place much thought upon future outcomes, although I do have a romantic mentality and enjoy fantasizing about future possibilities and hopes, such as what kind of partner I could have, what profession I would ideally be involved in, what my children will look like, what kinds of friends I will encounter and meet, where I will be living, etc. I have been described as being a bit spacey, distractible, and unfocused on my environment and surroundings as well.
I have been described as having the potential to succeed if I were to acquire a more ambitious attitude toward life, but am admittedly a bit scattered and lazy, tending to procrastinate and do things on a whim at last minute. I enjoy reading realistic young adult fiction or coming of age stories I can relate to, but do not connect well to fantasy and sci-Fi genres that seem rather ludicrous to me.
Instead, I prefer hearing people's personal stories and reflecting upon their experiences while relating them to my own. I also feel connected to certain fictional characters and feel involved in the stories I read or shows I watch, and have been passionate about certain fandoms in the past as well. On a surface level, I seem easygoing and to be a good listener and communicator, but am more intense than I let on and can be insecure and sometimes become paranoid and obsessive about certain topics, worrying almost neurotically about issues others would find nonsensical due to my anxiety problems.
Regardless, I try to be as tolerant, open-minded, and non-judgmental as I can be, despite being a sensitive and sometimes overly emotional person at heart. I sometimes struggle to let go of the past and can be begrudging and passive-aggressive as well, a source of inner conflict in me since I want to be perceived as fluid and accepting of everyone. I am described by many people as being caring to a fault and needing to just relax about people and let things be and to stop worrying over what others think, which I have been working on. I am constantly trying to figure out who I am and try to label myself, and sometimes fall in the habit of seeking my source of identity from the wrong sources and people.
My hobbies growing up included writing, drawing, and art, although I have since abandoned most of these due to being overly consumed by social media and instead spend most of my time on there or listening to music instead. I also enjoy deep, meaningful conversations with people about life and exchanging experiences with them, and feeling connected to other people is very important to me. I am also impressionable and tend to be influenced or swayed by others too easily and believe in what they say, an aspect I hate about myself.
I would also describe myself as a chameleon of sorts, shifting personas depending on who I interact with or what group I am around. I am also pretty shy around most people initially, although I have since become much more open over the years. I still consider myself an introvert however, since social interactions and excessive stimulation from people tends to exhaust rather than energize me. I am used to being alone with family for the most part and would rather have one or two good friends and a committed romantic partner than dozens of fake friends.
I do have several acquaintances from over the years, however. Lastly, I often romanticize potential partners excessively and tend to idealize them too favorably, only to be disillusioned when I see their negative side. I can be self-absorbed and a bit moody as well although again, I am working on that. Freedom is also a great value of mine as well. I hate feeling controlled or "owned" and dislike feelings of confinement. I am curious about different people and cultures and a big hope of mine is to travel the world someday with someone I truly care about.
Based upon everything I have shared, what personality type out of each of these do you guys most likely believe I am? How do I differentiate between being an INFP, INFJ, ISFP, and ISFJ?
