[MENTION=17131]Beyonce[/MENTION] is she the female version of Alex Louise Armstrong?
Anyway I'll try to relate to her and see where we differ.
-Her free time is almost always spent doing something with friends. She loves to go to parties, dress up, get hammered, and have a good time.
I sorta relate to this, but I need me time too.
-She's positive but with a fire inside. She's energetic, self-confident, second-guesses others before herself, and she doesn't really blend in with the crowd.
I can't seem to blend in with a crowd even if I try, I always stand out and I can't help it. I have my moments of doubt, but I think confidence is my natural. I sometimes hide my confidence with diplomacy.
-She can get so caught up in what's going on in her immediate surroundings that she isn't really good at checking back in with her friends that aren't around.
I usually keep track of one or two people so I never forget to check in with them, but otherwise I'm not very good at keeping up with my other friends if they aren't close.
-Not too concerned with academic success. Doesn't respect the teacher unless she likes him/her as a person, but still marches to the beat of her own drum.
I relate to this a lot, especially in grade school. Once I got to college I really focused on studying.
-Her main goal in life seems to be to have fun and be happy. She's not very vocal about her vulnerabilities, and she often withdraws and doesn't talk to anyone if she feels stressed or upset.
I relate to this.
-She's friendly and engaging with anyone as long as she doesn't find them weird or creepy. If she does, she'll still be diplomatic to not cause any trouble but generally avoids contact with them.
This.
-Generally laid back and easygoing with a positive attitude, but she also can take on the role of the leader if no one else will. With me personally, she's more directive because I can't make decisions with much certainty really so she decides what to do.
Right, I'm not directive unless I really have to be because I feel like I'm cashing in my karma too early. Unless someone really needs me to be bossy I wont. Not that I don't end up controlling things anyway, it's not that I try, it just happens.
-Uninhibited, will do anything despite what people around her will think or say.
ehhh not so much me, but I think this was beaten out of me at a young age (figuratively and literally) I've just been in too many culturally sensitive situations, and around too many violent people.
-Flexible. She once told me, "when you live here, plans can change all the time so you have to learn to go with the flow."
She seems very helpful, and yes my backup plans have backup plans.
-Loves her TV shows. She often sends me clips from TV shows like Ugly Betty and she'll be like "omg we are these two." We still tell each other that we're like Meredith and Cristina from Grey's Anatomy. She's my "person."
lol
-She likes people with quirks. However, she won't hesitate calling something weird if she thinks it is.
quirky people are the most interesting
-Doesn't like to be relied on. She once didn't talk to her friends for a week because they all expected her to be the designated driver, when she didn't even want to go out (she just wanted to stay in and hang out). Sometimes she likes her alone time with people to bond.
I don't think 2s like being relied on. Superman helps people on his own terms. People relying on me usually means letting people down, which makes me look bad. No one wants that.
-She'll try to make sure everyone is happy and having a good time. She doesn't like seeing her friends sad or uncomfortable, so she'll do anything to try to help.
ehhh I try to help, but within the confines of what is manly.
-She knows what's acceptable or not. Back when we were younger I wanted to invite my friend over to a garage party, but she said I shouldn't without asking. She's definitely better at taking other people into consideration than I am.
I always take other people into consideration.
-She's pretty open-minded about anything if you're her friend. She's willing to change her perspective about things because she'll always ask you why you do something or like something.
I love hearing different perspectives, it's one of those great things about having a mind--it can change.
-Dedicated to lacrosse. She's very passionate about it, her teammates, her games, etc.
I'm often dedicated to something. I don't mind being relied on for something I dedicate myself to.
-Kind of rejects the French part of her identity. If someone would use the French pronunciation of her name (that isn't her dad), she'd say "no! it's 'gen-uh-veev'."
seems image conscious
-Very sweet and caring, engaging and adventurous, but also no bullshit and direct.
I guess that could be me? Once I drop the diplomacy my words can sting (but it's like a targeted sting, so like if I had to hurt someone's feelings I know which feelings I'm hurting ideally).
probably 2w3, hard to decide between ESFJ and ESFP. I ultimately settled on ESFJ for myself because I related to Ne a lot, but clearly was not Ne dominant.
