** These are really boring, folks! I don't have time to make them fun to read! Somebody post another blog in this section, please! I'm leaving this public because of the chance that someone will jump in and tell me something useful or even, gasp, LIKE me, but I think most people also don't have time to do everything that might be done.**
Addendum to avoid yet another short post: It's not ISFJ. If I see someone in trouble I offer help and comfort, but most of my time isn't spent that way. There's more, of course, to ISFJs but I'm tired of making the lists. I knew I wasn't ISFJ as soon as I read the first couple of things about them. Nice people, though.
Listed INTP things I do or think:
*I think intelligence is good and a lot of fun.
*I tend to notice and be bugged by improper use of the language, written or spoken. "You know your an XXXX when--" Aaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh! (Note to self: get over it. Communication is the main thing.)
*I collect large numbers of facts. I have a notebook of maybe 6 pages, front and back, of MBTI stuff. It's neater than my laundry closet, the back of the chair in my bedroom, my pile of athletic and nicer-looking shoes I've worn recently, the contents of my refrigerator, etc.
*books
*losing interest in projects once I've gotten about 75% of the good out of them
*less confidence that my answers are the best ones that could be found (than INTJs)
Not me:
*"cool and aloof"
*love of the abstract--trying to figure out personality types from abstract description is difficult for me. However, I understand the INT ones more than the INF ones. That may mean something.
*Maybe the main thing is that I haven't done as many important things as I think an INTP (or J) would have done by my age. The only career I had was raising my children. That turned out probably better than average, but now, I'm just enjoying life, while I still can.
So now, the list from most likely to least likely:
INTP
INFP
ISFJ
INFJ
INTJ
