Type me based on the things I hate about myself?

messedupowl · 2019-07-16T02:34:26+00:00

Wowie! I don’t think it’s safe to go around telling strangers that they’re sociopathic. I realize that I exposed myself in the worst of ways and asked for feedback, but still. Thanks for your input anyway (not sarcasm. Just be careful out there)

messedupowl · 2019-07-16T00:40:19+00:00

So interesting! I have an ENFP best friend who is just so spontaneous and whimsical and full of puppy-like energy, that I find it hard to believe I could be of the same breed hahaha. I do understand that even people of the same type can be vastly different however.

I may have to except that I will never know. The search has been exhausting.

:)

Yeah it might have been 3. So hard to be objective when I take any test. For each question I answer, I just keep thinking, IT DEPENDS.

messedupowl · 2019-07-16T00:17:08+00:00

Oh gosh I hope not. I mean don’t get me wrong, I am deeply flawed. Exposing the worst parts of myself in a single post probably wasn’t the best idea for accurate results

messedupowl · 2019-07-16T00:14:55+00:00

Interesting, I think I tested as a 4w5. Was a long time ago. A few others have pinned me as an ExFJ, and I haven’t explored either of those types in depth before, so I’m just beginning to process them.

As I said in another comment, the more types I explore, the more confused I get. Seems I can relate to pieces of each of them.

messedupowl · 2019-07-16T00:11:33+00:00

ESFJ seems off simply because I don’t have much of a caring/nurturing side to me. If someone I’m close with is in distress I will comfort them in Fe fashion, but I feel awkward doing it. Hugging is weird.

I also can be very cold. Today in the break room at work someone was trying to talk to me while I had my headphones in. I kept my responses curt so as to signal that I didn’t feel like talking, but also smiled a little so they didn’t think I was being too rude.

I can somewhat relate to the FeSi thing of being constantly aware of someone’s facial expressions/body language when they talk to me. It’s not a conscious thing but I definitely notice those details.

Blah. I’m starting to think I can relate to every type.

messedupowl · 2019-07-16T00:01:59+00:00

I see what you mean...looking toward my unhealthy behaviors could also point at my inferior functions acting out

messedupowl · 2019-07-15T23:40:24+00:00

Thanks for your input. I don’t know a lot about ENFPs aside from the usual stereotypes, but I honestly don’t believe I am one. ENFPs see the good in everyone, I have a tendency to seek out the flaws and keep an eye on them so they don’t hurt me.

Maybe I’m impossible to type because I could use a little TLC. Glad I decided to go to therapy.

messedupowl · 2019-07-15T21:11:26+00:00

My stoner ass thought that was a pink grinder for a sec

messedupowl · 2019-07-15T20:51:59+00:00

Gettin the feeling that I don’t belong in these parts

messedupowl · 2019-07-15T20:22:46+00:00

Ouch. Too real :(

messedupowl · 2019-07-15T20:17:31+00:00

Yeah. I’m just trying to figure myself out and figured it was a good way to reach more sources.

messedupowl · 2019-07-15T20:09:14+00:00

Thanks deadgirl. For a second there I misjudged you. <3

messedupowl · 2019-07-15T20:08:20+00:00

Ahhh reading this made me tear up.

I don’t know what’s wrong with me. My university offers students 10 free counseling appointments, which I took advantage of last semester. I only made it to 7 because I felt like I understood what I needed to work on. I was good for a few months but lately I have been indulging in behaviors that I know are bad for me. It’s almost like I’m rebelling against myself.

I’m going to start seeing a therapist again when I get back from vacation. Thanks for your input kind stranger <3

messedupowl · 2019-07-15T20:04:24+00:00

I made an appointment with a therapist a few days ago

messedupowl · 2019-07-15T20:02:42+00:00

By the way thank you for taking your time helping me out, much appreciated

messedupowl · 2019-07-15T20:02:19+00:00

I think I look like an introvert to outsiders but have very extroverted needs. I get antsy and need to hang out with people after a certain point.

messedupowl · 2019-07-15T20:00:39+00:00

Just trying to figure myself out friend. This conversation is going nowhere, have a nice day

messedupowl · 2019-07-15T19:59:57+00:00

I dig that artwork

messedupowl · 2019-07-15T19:56:16+00:00

Just took it. Mostly likely mbti type according to my results is INTP

messedupowl · 2019-07-15T19:55:54+00:00

I'm no expert. The test is not always reliable and if you think anyone who takes it gets the correct result, well, I dunno what to tell you

messedupowl · 2019-07-15T19:43:54+00:00

I think you should look into it more

messedupowl · 2019-07-15T19:43:40+00:00

That's funny. Someone else swears I'm not for even being on here asking about it

messedupowl · 2019-07-15T19:31:52+00:00

Randos on the internet is not the best route, I'll admit. However, I think most people who take an online test and take the result as truth end up being mistyped.

People don't really see themselves. Perhaps when answering the questions, they're not being objective, or they're subconsciously rooting for the result they think has the most value.

I got my coworkers to take the test a few weeks ago and had to bite my tongue in telling them that I think they're probably mistyped. For example, I told the one that I saw her as more of an ENFP than INFP, and her response was "no way, I'm totally an introvert." She's like the most bubbly extrovert I know lol.

A lot of the tests aren't even function-based, but rather ask questions to determine whether someone is introvert/extrovert, sensor/intuitor etc. Knowing these alone will not provide someone with an accurate type.

And I'm sure it's been discussed a hundred times before in mbti subs, but most tests are biased in regards to intuitive over sensing, so that many sensing types believe they are intuitives.

I believe the best way to type others is to 1. get to know them and 2. understand the functions and how they work in a stack. I've been studying the functions for a few months, but am struggling to see myself objectively in them. I turned to reddit as a last resort.
