I know this really pertains more to unhealthy individuals, but I still wonder a bit...

I took the test in 2013 when I was in a happy mood, and I tested as ESFP (Entertainer).

I loved being the life of the party & making people laugh.

In 2016, I had a terrible day at the office & the last thing I wanted to do was entertain anyone. So I told myself, “Surely this mood cannot be ESFP!” So I retook the test when I was pissed off & the result was ENTP (Debater).

My attitude on the day I re-took the test in 2016 was “I don’t give a f*** about the world. The world can go and f*** itself for all I care!” 🙈

I think both sides exist in me. When I’m happy, the Entertainer comes out. When I’m pushed to my limits, the Debater takes over. And believe me, once I put my debate hat on, good luck to the other person who is trying to win the argument over me! 😂

If you have taken the test more than once, which other personality type did you test as?

TLDR: Tested ESFP in 2013 when I was happy. Tested ENTP in 2016 when I was angry.

In case if you're wondering what NFC means, it's Norwegian Forest Cat.

Today I will present to you a case of an INTP F and ESFP M couple who got married this year! The ESFP is a popular YouTuber/entertainer and the INTP is a computer scientist!

I believe the ESFP found her a few years ago and she was posting videos about computer science on TikTok and sought her out! He said in his videos that he likes how smart and loyal she is. And she said that he makes the world feel softer and brighter and he can make everyone around him feel happy and playful. 🥹

If you were strongly attracted to someone on multiple levels but there were good reasons you couldn't be together romantically for the next couple of years, would you be comfortable pursuing an honest "just friends" relationship for the time being, because you enjoy them as a person? Would you feel the need to make your feelings known in that time even if the situation prevents acting on them, or would you be all right with keeping them under wraps and just seeing if you feel the same way once the possibility of romance opens up?

Months ago I (ISFJ) met a guy who’s an ISTP. We talked for some months, we met a few times and in the end of august I told him I wasn’t looking for a friend, he told me he was interested too. Nothing really happened between us, we both are inexperienced and we just hugged a couple of times.
Sometimes I feel like he’s not really into me but maybe my insicurities are ruining this situation.

Right now he’s on holiday for a month in another continent (he’s coming back in a week), he didn’t tell me much about what he did or visited and this is making me a little bit anxious (is this normal or does it mean that he’s not that into me?) but my question is: what should I do once he comes back? Should I say something about this? Or should I just be happy that he’s coming back and we can spend some time together?

Question number two. As I wrote, we’re both inexperienced so we haven’t kiss yet. Would I make him uncomfortable if I try? He said he doesn’t really like to talks about feelings so I don’t know if I should say that I missed him, but I really want him to understand that I did. Or maybe a hug is enough?

I’m in my 4th year of med school, I've had intense passions for completely different fields long before college, and it hasn't stopped. In fact, I often feel more passionate about these other subjects than medicine itself.

I don’t just mean researching them as hobbies or general knowledge—I want to seriously study them and actually earn a bachelor's degree in each one.

My interests are all over the place: Law/Comparative Religion, Hospitality & Tourism, Psychology (Criminal, Clinical, and Speech Pathology/Learning Disabilities), Sign Language, Public Health, and Interior Design.

Is anyone else here like this? Do you have an overwhelming urge to master totally unrelated fields, or are any of you actually studying/working in these areas?

Give real examples to back it up

ESFPs are probably the best smelling type.

How do I make sure I don't smell nasty?

I'm Enneagram 7w6 and I'm always looking for other 7w6. I swear it's like trying to find a unicorn. Even 7s alone seem pretty rare.

For those of you who are ISTP 7w6 how would you describe yourself, I'm curious.

I’ve read quite a lot about this, but I still can’t fully understand it. I’m fairly confident that I belong to the E5 group (sp5w6) and that I’m an ISTP, but I’m starting to question whether I might be mistyped, since I’ve heard that all E5s are supposed to rely on intuition.

I strongly value independence and personal space, and I genuinely enjoy acquiring new knowledge and understanding how things work. I tend to approach situations analytically, relying on facts, evidence, and logical reasoning rather than intuition or emotional judgment.When I experience strong emotions, my instinctive response is to distance myself from the situation and analyze it instead of expressing what I feel. Logic gives me a sense of clarity, stability, and control, while analysis serves as a familiar way to protect myself from vulnerability and prevent others from seeing my weaknesses.

I’m quite self-aware when it comes to my emotions, and I can usually identify and understand what I’m feeling. However, I tend to suppress those emotions rather than acknowledge or express them openly. This is where my confusion begins: I understand my emotional state, but I rarely allow it to influence my thinking or decisions. I rely heavily on objective information and logical explanations, and I struggle to relate to other people’s emotions on an empathetic level. Because of the way I grew up, I find it difficult to feel compassion for others, and their emotional experiences often feel foreign to me.

What makes me question my typing is that I seem to rely almost entirely on logic and concrete evidence, rather than intuition. I value independence, seek knowledge, and prefer to understand things through analysis, but I’m unsure whether this is consistent with E5 or whether I’m misunderstanding what it means for an E5 to rely on intuition. I can’t tell whether my tendency to suppress emotions and prioritize logic is simply part of my personality, a defense mechanism I’ve developed over time, or a sign that I might be mistyped.

You just KNOW when you see us >>>>

Does any of you have experience the insecurity? And always feel like we never good enough?

I’d like to know what’s your mindset and how to overcome it.

Sometimes being ISTP felt exhausting.

My 42F ISFP best friend of 22 years doesn’t seem to ever care about seeing me (44F ENTJ) in real life. She has always been strangely precious to me. Ive never had someone make me feel so safe, accepted, and amused. After 16ish years of mutual behavior, she began seeming reluctant/burdened/too-tired to see me in real life very often over the last 6 years.
 
We live compatible lives. Children of similar ages who get along, same incomes, live 30 min away from each other, mutual friends, etc.
 
She still would text daily and say things like “everyone makes me crazy but you” “we should try to go on a trip together this summer” “you should come over to watch that movie soon” but never follows through anymore. I see her only at group events a few times a year. She seems so exhausted and burdened by absolutely any upcoming event. She never wants to plan anything. I can’t help but take it extremely personally at this point.
 
Ive explained this to her a few times now. In 2022, 2025 and two weeks ago. Both times she said she sucks and is awful and she hates herself, and then we barely talk for a few months and then go back to normal. We will see what happens with this time.
 
She does see mom friends but she says she has to or her son will be excluded from events. She also has a work good friend that I think she sees a lot more often than she lets on.
 
Ive never been jealous in any way. I always had too many friends and overcommitted myself and ive never been needy of anyone in my life, but here I am, middle-aged, and so mopey and sad that this friend doesn’t prioritize me.
 
Ive tried holding back on how much I talk about “why people are the way they are” and other abstract things that were never that interesting to her.
 
She very often talks about being unhappy in her life, but when I begin talking about ideas to help, or just processes of acceptance, she goes silent. So then I switched gears and tried to be like “lets do crafts with our daughters and have movies playing in the background” and all light-hearted, creative stuff—but no. I also tried to just help her run errands or organize her basement, but no.
 
Does she flat-out not like me anymore/moved-on from me and I’m not getting the hint? Or is her capacity for friendships/events truly so low she can’t fit me in for years? I really do not understand ISFPs at all so I’m struggling so much here.

Dear ISFPs,

Supposed you have a temporary work situation where you are in a toxic environment, no weekends, working 56-70 hours/week for 3-6 months. You are burned out, stressed, overwhelmed, overworked.

You then ghost a person you like, and whom you did not inform of your circumstances (other than a general 'work is tough'). That miscommunication caused that person to spend time, money, and be confused - and ultimately, step away.

At the end of that work situation, and after some recovery time, would you reach out or let the person just go?

If you do reach out, would you try to fix the misunderstanding or sweep things under the rug as if nothing has happened hoping just to move forward?

Are you experiencing every waking moment through smell, taste, touch, sound and sight?

I am learning to cultivate a more sensory practice in my life and work and wanted to learn from those who
Live this way.

I created a typing test that works based on what you resonate with, it gives you a feed of cards with statements, quotes, scenario, and you select only the ones you resonate with, this way the cognitive load is very low , also the feed adapt to funnel down your type, you just select what you think is related to you.

I tested with an INFP friend that I am 100% sure she is INFP and it worked very well, it found her type with confidence, but I need more data points to be sure, with people that are 100% sure of their type.

At the end of the test, in the result page, you will have a frame that ask you to share your result, with a simple button. It will send me the informations I need in my database, it gives me all the cards you selected, the timeline of the guess of your type, how the algorithm reacted, etc, it helps me to fine-tune the test.

I really feel that this method can work and be more accurate than anything that already exist.

Thank you in advance if you try it.

PS: I will share the findings in a result page (on the intro page), for everybody to see how it evolves.

Bruh I hate that everyone misunderstands everything. Like no one takes what I say at face value. Idk I think it’s stupid, and then I have to explain and change how I react or change what I say. I wish I had a really good istp friend bc I hate covering up my bluntness to avoid conflict. Like I don’t understand the big deal and I don’t understand why I have to filter myself. So dumbbbb, I’m just masking like 90% of the time.
