@MusicGal

Me too!!!!

Hello, personality type-buddy! :)

me too!

@JustaPeony I'm another INFJ does the -T make a difference?

@Cadence this is gonna be a long one.. So dive in only if you're really interested in typing :p

It's really common for either type to mistype as the other since both types share the same auxiliary-tertiary axis (in this case it corresponds to how they make judgements).. However, you will have just one type.. The easy way to figure out which type you really are is to determine whether you're sensation oriented or intuition oriented..

So if you're an extraverted sensation dominant (ES-P) you would prefer to focus on concrete data.. I.e. The live information you are receiving from your external surroundings via your 5 senses (a what you see is what you get world).. You'd be really good at kinesthetic learning (learning by physically doing things).. You'd be comfortable dealing with objects (living or non-living) and figuring out how they are useful to you in the moment and how you can physically influence them.. Also, you'd enjoy active participation in whatever is occurring around you at any point of time.. This is why ESFPs are generally called the life of the party or the entertainer.. Cause they are full of life and are into activities like dancing or singing or acting.. Also they would have a sense of style which is very aesthetically pleasing, but in a generally accepted (what is popular) sense.. They also tend to have commitment issues because committing to one thing could make them feel like they might miss out on other experiences.. But when they do commit it's pretty serious and deep.. I guess this is one type I've seen that doesn't appear to be serious on the surface but there's a deep ocean of emotions underneath the happy go lucky exterior which only a select few are privy to.. Also they can seem to be a bit too all over the place externally but they have a very strongly ordered inner sense of purpose in life and they are go-getters.. And they do not enjoy over-analysis because they feel like it's a waste of time unless it has some practical outcome.. They are way more practical than ENFPs can ever dream of being.. They have deep affection for animals (especially dogs).. Not that ENFPs don't, but an SFP's love for animals is something more at a cellular level cause it rises out of a craving to receive and show unconditional acceptance.. An ENFP would find an animal adorable and shower out with love but an SFP would be moved to tears by a random dog looking into their eyes.. They also have very sharp physical observation.. What color, what size, what taste, what smell.. They love outdoor activities, especially those which bring them in touch with nature..

Now coming to an extraverted intuition dominant (EN-P).. They are more like dream children.. Away in an imaginary world.. Going through life as perpetual active observers.. They love being surrounded by stimulation but their modus operandi is to sit back and take it all in, as it is, and then make connections between seemingly random things.. They get a kick out of experiences which help them seek connections between people and objects and emotions.. So if you're an ENFP you're more likely to be a like a big child.. Always filled with child-like wonder and always eager to explore the world just to figure things out.. How will this affect that..what happens there if I change this here.. And you would likely get bored of something once you've figured it out.. You would need to constantly search for something new to stimulate your mind.. So here you get a different kind of commitment issue.. It has more to do with eagerness to explore than to do with fear of restriction.. This is what makes ENFPs so creative and gives them the ability to know a bit about everything and this urge to explore is never satisfied.. Not to say that ENFPs are not as lively or physically skilled, but they're relatively introverted compared to ESFPs and would 1) Enjoy observing others more and motivating others to have a good time and 2) not be as tuned into their physicality as an ESFP would be.. They are also pretty optimistic and would be very encouraging towards others.. Their sense of style is also very pleasant but more individualistic.. It expresses their inner aura rather than what is deemed popular (you could relate this to the hipster dressing sense).. Also they are creative in a different way.. ESFPs in my experience are do-ers and ENFPs are show-ers.. So they tend to be more inclined towards behind the scenes art forms like photography or painting or writing.. And ENFPs are very very witty.. ESFPs are laugh out loud funny.. But ENFPs have a cutting wit which is driven by their keen abstract observation.. And they would surely enjoy analysing and discussing outlandish and unproven theories and ideas which have no practical application cause these are a great source of entertainment and inspiration to them.. An ENFP wouldn't ask for scientific validation or practical application.. Yes things need to be logical but that doesn't mean the possibility doesn't exist..

All that aside.. No one can make either of the types do something they do not wish to do.. The are both strong believers of freedom and expression.. And both like being liked and valued by others (approval and validation matters).. ESFPs would be more honest and upfront about it.. ENFPs would pretend to not care too much about it but it deeply hurts them when they find out that someone disapproves of them..

That's about all I can think of right now.. Hope it helps you figure out which type you are.. We all have a bit of every type in us.. But a majority of the time our mind tends to function as per the function stack of one type.. So eventually you'll be able to figure out what your functional preferences are :)

PS: ESFPs hate being told they fall under a category.

Me too. Sounds very correct.
