Just starting up an ENFP intro post to facilitate new members, as you may not know I would trust many of you with my virtual life, so expanding that to new people would be awesome! The idea of this is to show that there is a community here; if that’s something you’re interested in, also having a start point will help that community grow! *huzzah!*

So if you’ve been waiting to spray your rainbows like a gosh dang firehose now is the time to do so!

BUT hive mind be damned, I'm an ENFP and my Fi tells me I'm an individual! Don't worry sir/madame, we have some things prepared so you can set yourself apart like the shining :star: you are!

We want to know about you! Consider these basic questions, don’t feel like you have to answer them, but they just happen to be there in case you get stuck :) *an Italian accent is encouraged but not mandatory*

1) Where are you from/where do you live?
2) How old are you? (Ballpark is more than fine)
3) What sort of work are you doing?

Some Extras
4) What do you look to gain out of being here?
5) How did you find out about your type? (It's ok if you're still unsure)
6) What are you favourite things in THE world!?
7) How long have you been putting off paying those bills??
8) This question has been left open, let that Ne go free range bby!

As the ultimate incentive, answering the questions (or just saying hello) will result in this being your honorary theme for the day ;)

The power is YOURS *Captain planet face*

In short, this is a starting point for those of you that are new to the land of the forest critters, we'd like to meet you (maybe with song)!

If you have questions about any of the above feel free to message me and ask ^_^

Okaaaay I only read the first page, sorry guys! I really don't have enough patience-
Since I am new here, why the hell not?

I actually looooooooooove to answer questions, ghehe :tongue:

1) Where are you from/where do you live?
Well, I think I live in another dimension to be honest, but irl I live in a small country next to Belgium and Germany.. tadaaaa the Netherlands!!! :)

2) How old are you? (Ballpark is more than fine)
25 years young

3) What sort of work are you doing?
I work for a webshop. Data-entry and customer service. It's just because I just started making a career and I needed money+people!

Some Extras
4) What do you look to gain out of being here?
I kinda need to spill more, I work 40 hours of week and it's hard to find people to talk with about what I need to talk about. I actually need more 'talking' and less 'speaking' , if you know what i mean...

5) How did you find out about your type? (It's ok if you're still unsure)
Still unsure I guess. My first result of the MBTI assessment was INFJ and been in that community for quite some time.
I learnt a lot from them and made some friends, but INFJs are for me ALWAYS talking about serious subjects and even though I love that in contrary to the small talk daily of the mass, that was TOO MUCH. (yeah in capital letters..)
Then I related a lot with ENFJ but never felt quite 'good'. I am still doubting between ENFJ and ENFP but ENFP is more 'me' and ENFJ is more 'what my parents/people want me to be/what I am if I am too demanding of myself'.


6) What are you favourite things in THE world!?
Pfew.. hard to choose from the million things I love but ok here goes:
- Travelling, discovering new places, sleeping in new beds, taking a train to an unknown destination, meeting new people
- Unicorns!
- Scifi / Fantasy stuff (Supernatural series, BTTF Trilogy, comics etc. nerdy stuff I guess)
- When I finish a project in a good and nice way :)

7) How long have you been putting off paying those bills??
Lol I don't do that anymore. When I was young I was extremely impulsive, didn't pay and had huge problems with money.
I've grown up and NEVER do not pay a bill. Because I will freak out then. Everything needs to be ok with that. (just so you know!
:laughing: )

8) This question has been left open, let that Ne go free range bby!
Okaaaaaaaaay bby! xx
What should I do with my life? Do aliens exist? Should I go do this, that ? (and repeat that 10.000 times a day)
Why is [insert object] like that? etc
[quietly judging you]

@Blackbear
Haha, seeing that you're a bear *or a floating hat chasing a train*, I'm actually impressed! I wouldn't expect many people at all to make it through the first page *except for me I've read the first page like 10000008398 times cuz this thread is like my child*.

GOOD! cuz I love responding to answers! FUN FACT: did you know that the netherlands made carrots orange, they used to be purple and white! Until you crazy cat dutch peeps came along and bippity bopitty booped our carrots into orange! you guys be trippin!

Well then it's pretty cool that you've found a way to communicate with us from your other dimension, the dimension of tapatalk emoji's! So if belgium has chocolate and germany has... WW2, what's the food of the netherlands?? *don't you dare say orange carrots!* xD

That may be your age in the other dimension, but here all ENFPs are forever 12 ;)

OH GOD, data entry! D: that's like the last thing most ENFPs should be doing, especially if you have 7 going for ya somewhere! AND you have to work around bikes, I feel for you my friend

5. Haha, yeah I hear ya and we'll get there on your type I think! Lucky here we tend to like the serious chats and the silly ones :tongue: *not hatin' INFJs, love youuuuuu* ENFJ might just be how you present, as you say, I dunno I've still gotta re-go through your other post!

Why does everyone else have a better bed than me!? even the couch beds win, it's no fair... as if! prove you've been on a train! :kitteh: I was JUST on a train once again, but I knew where I was going :)

Hahaha, I knew I remembered them unicorns correctly, it -WAS- you! :words::words::words::words::words: *muhahahaha*

YES, you almost lost me at supernatural (I hate the promos... "which brother WILL die???!" SHUT UP niether of them will! xD) BUT then I realised what BTTF is and I'm BACK...from the future! *it's your kids marty!* no wonder you like trains so much!... I was never huge on comics, just the simpsons and dad used to read me the phantom :)

Look at you all organised with money! you should teach the rest of us!

OH I will repeat that and then go back in time and repeat it again (but 10 times doesn't sound like that many times) :3
[don't you judge judy me]

Later hoverboard skater!

Ok as I said in the other thread.. People I am sorry but these posts are long and it honestly freaks me out.
You're pretty hilarious. At work I actually laughed (wow.). Seriously never happened xd
lol yeah I wanted to read the rest as well.. I love reading about others :)
You are seriously WEIRD! We did not do that :eek: (I hate carrots..)
Well who needs drugs if you have carrots? :frustrating:

Ok idk what to say to that so I guess I just smile and say: good one.. :laughing:
Ikr? I praise myself for being able to come back to reality sometimes. I loooove my imagination as much as I love reality..
Yeah I always feel like that anyhow. Forever a child in a world full up serious people with stone faces.
Oh I replied to this on the other thread :unsure: Data-entry.. enough said.. How to kill yourself slowly: data-entry. yay.

Haha I never meant to be offensive to anyone. -just sayin-
I don't know if that is actually true. It could be the other way around as well. I present myself as enfp but in fact might be enfj. Well we could think up theories for as long as I live (because I love to do that.. )
I have really no clue how you come to be talking about beds.. Where is this post going seriously? lol

I really love trains though. Ok but as the wise say, it's not about the destination but the journey. :shocked:
But im glad you knew where you were going cause honestly irl if you don't then the train won't end in Alice in Wonderland but in an old train station with creepy men and having no money lol..
(sorry I hate quotes kinda.. it's too general to be true about anything..)
Yeah I just bought a new one tho. Veeeery soft and fluffy :) much better than yours haha!

lol I typed that exactly in the other thread o_o
I was thinking about what you said about Supernatural and honestly wanted to rebel like: I LOVE Supernatural I will show myself that I do aargghh. And then I was like, whatever, too much effort ghehe.
"We don't need roads for where we're going!".Gotta love Doc though. I love him and Marty so much it hurts.

lol stop it you

exactly.. now you finally understand me. Trains and I are unseparable (seriously)
ok :laughing:

Edit: How to kill yourself slowly.. data-entry and customer service. v_v
 
#105 ·
Haha, yeah, they are pretty long, at least mine next to always are! Sometimes I go back over them and scoff at how much I managed, how my hands aren't permanent claws from typing, I'll never know o.o
I'm glad you found it funny, that's dead set all I really wanna hear (it's actually a problem)..
You guys so did it! it wasn't us! Carrots can be pretty good though providing all the right forms of dip... but NEVER carrot cake *bluh!*

Personally I don't think I require the influence of drugs! xD (carrot or otherwise)

I loooove my imagination as much as I love reality..
I like this a lot, can we get this on a shirt?? preferably carrot orange xD

Oh I replied to this on the other thread :unsure: Data-entry.. enough said.. How to kill yourself slowly: data-entry. yay.
Ugh sounds like fresh hell, you may as well take up smoking, drinking and straight up carrot drug abuse o.o

I have really no clue how you come to be talking about beds.. Where is this post going seriously? lol
I'll just step over the typing deal stuff, we've talked about that quite a bit xD You totally started it! "sleeping in new beds" -Blackbear 17th of May 2016 @3am ... I just ran really really far with it xD

I really love trains though. Ok but as the wise say, it's not about the destination but the journey. :shocked:
But im glad you knew where you were going cause honestly irl if you don't then the train won't end in Alice in Wonderland but in an old train station with creepy men and having no money lol..
THIS. This made me laugh, like wayyyy too much, it's never about the destination as long as the destination... isn't that xD xD

Yeah I just bought a new one tho. Veeeery soft and fluffy :) much better than yours haha!
I actually have no idea of what this is in response to, is it about beds?? If so it probably is! Uni accommodation single beds are like the creepy men/no money of beds!

I was thinking about what you said about Supernatural and honestly wanted to rebel like: I LOVE Supernatural I will show myself that I do aargghh. And then I was like, whatever, too much effort ghehe.
I totally respect that it's a good show! It's just the promos make me wanna grow devil horns and rampage.. but I've probably jinxed it now... and we all know that would actually end up carrot horns o.o

"We don't need roads for where we're going!".Gotta love Doc though. I love him and Marty so much it hurts.
Heck yes! If I grow up to have marty's nike kicks and doc's hair.. I'd be a happy man :)

GREAT SCOTT, how did you figure out my hyperlink secret ways, only people who have asked know how to do that!

exactly.. now you finally understand me. Trains and I are unseparable (seriously)
^_^ but this sounds like something you should see a doctor about :3 :3 :3

Dude!!!! How could i ever reply to this XD[emoji27]
 
#109 ·
Oh shit I liked this right when it was posted but totally forgot to respond! Never too late, right?

1) Where are you from/where do you live?
I'm from the Northeast United States. But in a week and a half I'll be moving to Ghana for two years.


2) How old are you? (Ballpark is more than fine)
22


3) What sort of work are you doing?
Just graduated from university but I will be teaching high school science in Ghana for the next two years. After that, I'll probably look into getting some type of job at a government agency like the EPA or NOAA and then get into international development, volunteer for political campaigns and organizations, then probably get into politics. Doubt most of this will actually end up happening but it's the plan for now :p


4) What do you look to gain out of being here?
I came here to learn about and better understand myself. I think I really was able to do that, especially from the time when I first joined and was just beginning to truly be independent, just beginning to discover who I really am. Now, I tend to come here for the Debate, Current Events, and Sex and Relationships forums.


5) How did you find out about your type? (It's ok if you're still unsure)
Well, I originally typed myself as INFP. I hate saying this because it sort of reinforces a negative stereotype of INFPs but it was largely because I was suffering from depression and social anxiety. I feel like I never truly, totally identified with many of the other INFPs but I have a good ENFP friend irl and she's so bubbly that I never really imagined myself also being ENFP, even as I started to feel that I really wasn't as pure an introvert as I thought. I'm definitely more of an ambivert but my strengths in functions definitely fit that of an ENFP better than INFP... so here I am!


6) What are you favourite things in THE world!?
My favorite things in the world???? I have so many favorite things but I'll give it a shot... politics, traveling, international development, beer, shrooms, experiencing different cultures, sex, driving, music (especially alternative R&B), hummus, cheese, learning, books, flannels, ice hockey, mangoes, acai. I think that covers most of it :p


7) How long have you been putting off paying those bills??
Hahaha don't even get me started. Sometimes I write an older date on my checks for my monthly car payment so they don't realize I sent it in on the day it's due :laughing:


8) This question has been left open, let that Ne go free range bby!
I guess one cool thing is that, for the first time ever, my sister and I are building an actual relationship. I think part of it is that I'm going to be going away for two years soon and who knows what will happen in that time but we both dealt with a bit of a shitty homelife during childhood. Our narcissistic mother would basically pit me and my sister against each other, where one of us, at all times, was designated as the good one and the other as the bad one. We dealt with years of physical and emotional abuse and I think it fucked both of us up in very different ways. I don't think she's really come face to face with the issues she's had as a result which makes me a bit sad, probably because her issues weren't as obvious as mine, which basically manifested in depression and social anxiety whereas hers have manifested in apathy. So while she seems carefree... I can tell that things do really get to her and she internalizes all that emotion, but at the same time being or appearing carefree is not really such an off-putting quality to others so it doesn't exactly affect her externally.

Anyways, we hung out for a while and it was so nice. This was one of my biggest goals to do before I leave for two years and I'm so happy to see it actually happening. Just wish we had more time... but I think now we are both on the same page and will be a lot closer in the future :))
 
#110 ·
That's ok! For I knew... that you had responded.. in your heart and therefore it's never to late my friend! Dude that's not a long time before a pretty big change, you must be hella stoked! Good luck to you in the pride lands :) (lion king probably wasn't set in ghana, but it is now).

2. ME3PO!

3. Someones got it all mapped out! Yeah it's always good to plan, it almost never works out that way but at least you tried to have somethin AND it gives you almighty end goals, may you teach well *blessings of stendaar open yee*. Send Kevin spacey my regards when you make it too, also you may have to ballot as land of the snakes, otherwise if I move to the states, I won't know you you are when voting, otherwise kanye west might get end up my got to *uh huh honey* o.o

4. Seems to be the way, but you've been here for much longer than I and I, good to see the system works!

5. Well pretty normal I reckon if you think about how things like Si can present, not that it's everything but you know what I mean. That's like me and my sister, we're pretty different on the outside but crunchy on the inside... which is to say we operate in pretty much the same way when it comes to this sort of thing. From what little I know my gut reckons you chose right!

6. So many good things mmmmmmmmmmmmm mangoes, as a man I could go for mango, that joke will hit one day I swear xD what got you into politics?? It's a rare thing I reckon at our age, but then I'm from a different country, probs a little different in the states of US.

7. Hahahahaa, I havn't done that in so long! I'd be much too frightened to try that sort of sneak now xD At least if you figure you have a car to do a runner! *doesn't really make sense for a car... driver? tyrerer? idk...*

8. Funny you mention this and I already mention my sister, we've become much closer in the last year or so! Always good to have, going away can make you realise what you have at home! Great introspection and glad to hear things are going well!

#114 ·
Thank you! @Subtle Murder for not murdering this thread, but instead reviving it :) *seriously the tumbleweeds were revving their engines*. Aw mannnnnnn we're getting cold days here but where are you getting the rain as well!? *I bet all the cash money it's melbourne* I want the cold and rain :unsure: Pretty sure I've seen more JC avatars than any other thing on the planet when it comes to PerC, haha, which has me thinkin that you retail manage the selling of various cheeses :p *taps nose*.

Been interested in mbti for quite some time but also trying to make sense of how I relate to other people, outside of just the people that I know in my day to day life.

hmmmmm favourite colour? i'm obsessed with the colour purple. :p
 
#116 ·
@verajessa, you've gone did it now! *todays been a very southern day* and is that vera as in- first name aloe :3 It's pretty damn swish that you have an alias though, will that be your stage name too??

Canada ayee, there are a few canadian's here, so they'll know what is up unless they've frozen to death, I've been interested in one day moving there and in asking around I've had a number of different and interesting perspectives :) If you know what I'm talking aboot... *nope*, anything you'd really like to see yourself end up in as an actor?? Good luck with that either way btw!

The testing happens a lot through uni, why didn't we have that, damn australian system is way too laid back when it comes to career development, have you ever coloured a cat? I once put hair gel on one of ours.. it did not approve o.o

That's alright and I guess you wouldn't be paying for health care either *ayyyyye* *feel free to slap me at any time, i'll consider it tutoring*

My fav colour is red for ferrari reasons, but i'll respect purple too :) well congrats you passed! and welcome btw! I don't think I've said that one yet :p
 
#123 ·
Hahaha with acting I'll keep my real name as it's too late now. :p Thankfully I'm in Vancouver, so I don't have to deal with the frozen deadly weather that is Canada. Although i did live in Ontario for one year and then decided I couldn't stand the cold and moved back home. And thanks for the welcome :)

@Jimmy why are you no longer ENFP?
 
  • Like
Reactions: Jimmy
#118 ·
Haha, ok i'll try to explain it, pretty much there's a few reasons, first is that I now believe I'm Fi before Ne (so people have been telling me but you have so much Ne, which may be true, but my Fi almost always has a say first). Crux of that too was that I don't relate to the core of Ne dom, which is experiencing first and foremost in order to expand. I really related to the idea with INFPs that the experience is secondary to self or whatever, so like my understanding of the world is more salient to me than actually experiencing it; in short I like thinking about things, I don't like doing them, new things tend to make me uncomfortable. I seem to be checking with my Fi first, which is why I have to push myself to 'extravert' so much, but I digress.

Other thing was finally understanding how position within a stack can really change how that cog function presents, so I finally got Si and Te in the right context, that was mainly thanks to the INFP 4th functions article (which I only read days ago). So that article summed me up more than anything has yet (other than 9) and I believe that went beyond just consistencies with ENFP and intuitive things. I just couldn't ignore that article.

Those reasons are the crux, also I realised how INFP some of my viewpoints were in past posts, like I dunno now I understand it in closer to full it seems to fit way more.

So yeah people keep saying I use lots of Ne, but I really don't believe it comes up very much before Fi (and then there's the other functions too.. I also didn't relate to Si as 4th, don't get me wrong I'm still not 100% (which I never will be), but I think INFP with ENFP tendencies makes more sense now. Haha, sorry for the long winded, people have been asking me a lot and I get why, I just wanted to get most of it out there.

OH and I think it makes more sense with enneagram, there's a bunch of reasons, unfortunately there was also a bunch I didn't realise sooner.
 
#119 ·
@Jimmy The part about Enneagram is why I think you're ENFP. Your tritype makes someone more introverted, but the energy levels you exude show Ne. As far as Fi being important, well of course, it's your judgment. Ne often is working, even when you aren't realizing it, since it is always perceiving. But you know very well when Fi is in use. Doesn't mean it's dom.

You're work on this thread, especially the OP, is pure Ne creativity. INFPs would have taken a different route, but you posted in a way that indicates extrovert and Ne dom.
 
#120 ·
Yeah that was the reasoning with enneagram I had originally, haha, problem is I see it going either way and I can't see any evidence that either of those arguments is closer to true over the other. I get your argument re Fi too, trust me I've thought about all this, I even discussed it with a psychologist and we agreed that the chicken vs the egg argument (in terms of feelings vs thought) first is too difficult to really establish.

So yeah like I suppose it would be 'easier' to tell when Fi is at play because thought processes are harder to track, especially if Fi plays into emotions and things like that. So yeah I'm just not convinced, like sure these posts might be very Ne dom, but to me that could easily be 'state' and not 'trait'

So yeah I'm still not confirmed and I still have a line of reasoning that I could be ENFP, but in the presence of what's in front of me I just don't see it right now. Things like anxiety and feeling introverted in a new town make it harder to tell, but even then I dunno I think there's too much weight on the INFP side, because it's also Te and Si too, so unless that article had been describing overlapping manifestations of various types it's hard to go against the overall argument I'm on.

I seriously don't mean to be difficult and I know you've been on this stuff a lot longer than I have, but I'm also trying to get as much out there in terms of my processing as I can :p

So I guess I'm also saying, I've literally thought of your side on this, but I don't see a way of showing that, which means I'm more inclined to go off what's hopefully closer to solid. You could well be right, but the other side is just a little less murky right now (e.g me to a tee http://personalitycafe.com/infp-articles/76770-recognizing-inferior-function-ifps.html).

I'm hoping my logic isn't flawed, but instead limited xD I'm also a but defensive because I just changed, so soz.

@Jimmy I sincerely respect how you feel about this. :happy:

I don't, but since I can't beat you until that I becomes an E, the only thing I can do is shake my fist angrily over the internet. :dry:

*Shakes fist angrily* :angry:

Ironically it's going to be a waiting game of experience to take it to the next level I think, whether I like it or not, time will bloody tell! On the weighting of everything I can think of it seems right, but in all honestly- fucked if I really know, haha. Imma be I guess.. :crazy:

EDIT: Just to try round it off before bed, I think a big part of my Fi experience is comfort, so whenever I achieve that (like with these forum posts) my Ne gets permission to free roam, but as the which is first is tricksy and possibly false, then the other functions come into the consideration. However that argument doesn't explain why other INFPs who feel that way would still be different ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I cannot contain all the brilliance in this thread.

1) Where are you from/where do you live?
I live in a quaint estate along the coasts of Vihamanafushi, Maldives, thanks to my imagination.

2) How old are you? (Ballpark is more than fine)
All I know is, I’m mentally ten.

3) What sort of work are you doing?
I’m a freelance daydreamer/professional Netflix binger. I’m quite passionate about my jobs. I take them very seriously. I’d have to say that it’s not easy juggling both jobs in a day.

4) What do you look to gain out of being here?
  • New friends!
  • Interesting stories from different types
  • Downloading funny memes from threads

5) How did you find out about your type? (It's ok if you're still unsure)
My INTJ best friend asked me to take the MBTI test 3 years ago. And voila, that’s how big bang happened.

6) What are you favourite things in THE world!?
  • Adventure Time
  • aliens
  • animals
  • anything that gives you Diabetes
  • astronomy documentaries
  • Aurora Borealis
  • books
  • galaxies
  • history
  • laughter
  • mangoes
  • music
  • mythology
  • people
  • rainbows
  • sunsets
  • sweaters

Ah, aren't alphabetical orders and bullets satisfying?

7) How long have you been putting off paying those bills??
*cringes*

8) This question has been left open, let that Ne go free range bby!
How many ENFPs does it take to change a light bulb?

It probably takes only one. The ENFP would convince the light bulb that it doesn’t need to change for anyone because it’s beautiful in its own way. The ENFP ends up not changing the light bulb anyway.

So the final answer is none.

Oh, that reminds me, I have to pay the electric bills. *cringes even more*

Holy shit you're hilarious 😂 may I join you in the Maldives? To me it's the closest thing to heaven on earth. Your last answer for the last question made me laugh and think at the same time; that's a first so thanks for that! Hope you pay your bills soon xD

Ooohh, this is fun.
1) Where are you from/where do you live?
Hanoi, Vietnam. I study in Philly.
2) How old are you? (Ballpark is more than fine)
In college
3) What sort of work are you doing?
I am a food blogger / social commentator , a task that I name "promoting democracy in this collapsing country " lol

Some Extras
4) What do you look to gain out of being here?
People confessions and all that drama, it's fun, like you grab a popcorn and watch a sitcom of people's interaction.
5) How did you find out about your type? (It's ok if you're still unsure)
I did the test for about 8 times. It's really weird how I got ISFP first, then ENTP, then INFP, something feels off everytime. So I read and minimize down to ENFP.
6) What are you favourite things in THE world!?
Urg, it's so hard with these types of questions
Anything hedonistic

7) How long have you been putting off paying those bills??
At the last minute xD
8) This question has been left open, let that Ne go free range bby!
What is your bubble tea flavor?
I am a Habanero Pepper

Sorry I almooooooooost missed this one! and I would have gotten away with it too.. love all your answers! like I love democracy! but more so food xD If I link you my instagram account can you blog about it?? Make my instagram great again! :O (it's all food), ohhhh and my fav tea flavour is either raspberry or apple (I havn't had enough variety haha), it would be russian caravan if they took my suggestion and put the vodka in it! Anyways welcome to the forums and enjoy the popcorn! The way things tend to go it'll probably run out quick! :Smilies3:

1)Earth, but sometimes somewhere else, as I'm sure you all understand. :)
2) Well, I believe in being direct and honest, soooo...I'm 15. I'm sick and tired of people assuming that I have no intelligence whatsoever because of my age, however, so DON'T DO IT.
3)What sort of work? Well, I'm currently trying to find employment over the summer. Nothing fancy, but I'm fairly sure that I'll get a job at a local restaurant.
4)I took the Myers-Briggs personality test based on pressure from my SO's mother, and was struck with the incredible accuracy of the results. I hope to be able to enjoy talking with people who think like I do.
5)As stated before, I took the Myers-Briggs personality test because of pressure from my SO's mother--turns out my SO is an INTJ, which is supposed to match up well with an ENFP, I guess. Still a little skeptical of it all but I'm a trusting guy.
6)Favorite things in the world? Well...nature (especially mountains/rivers) and people. And my SO.
7)I don't have bills to pay (see my age, haha). However, I will assume that is a question meant to provoke an answer that describes how often I procrastinate in my day-to-day life, which I will assure you is quite frequently.
8)Well hey now! Um...I generally don't like coming up with questions about myself, but OK!

Hey you!
*surprised voice* Me?
Yes, you! What is your...favorite color?
*laughing* Green! Yay! I'm appreciated!
 
#134 ·
Yo! Well you definitely don't sound unintelligent; on the contrary your mind seems to be teeming with so many possibilities! I'm just a couple of years older than you but I feel you. Adults around me especially assume the younger we are the dumber we are compared to them. Annoying af -.-
And yeah I guess INTJs are a good match but just some advice I've learnt here myself: don't base everything on those supposed compatibility stuff and all the related things. Those are just a guide and don't predict how well you will match with someone. I had that misconception and it took me a while to get over it so I'll just put it out there haha
And nature is amazing! The reason green and blue are my favourite colours is because they're nature's colours!
What's your favourite food then? [emoji14]

@TheQuirkyArtiste,

it appears we have a resurrection on our hands! well, kinda.. maybe.. I dunno xD All I can say is with the certainty of a 9 is that I haven't seen you around these parts much!

I like how you went through all the places you've been and ending up on Gillette *the best a man can get* sounds like a good place to end up! Being a cartoonist sounds really cool, I'd be interested in seeing anything you've done for sho!

Love the detail, lots of info! but i'll finish by saying my rent is $640 a month.. so arghhh you win!

Thankssssss for the response :)

Yeah, I used to be pretty active, but kinda dropped out for awhile...met my ex on here, and after that bombed so horribly I kinda avoided the site for quite a chunk of time there. Besides, my laptop died last year so internet access isn't the easiest thing nowadays. :p

Okay @Jimmy

How are you still here all friendly and active? xD I mean look at you breaking all the "Ne's loose interest very quickly" rules and answering every single intro xD Don't get me wrong it's nice to see that you're still on it and I am probably just that "upset" because I didn't even manage to be an active member for a month or so xD Well at least I can blame it on my ENFP nature which I btw found to be my actual personality type! Yaaay the riddle is solved xD No I figured that my doubts towards being an ENFP just came from a bit too much temper and a bit to little self-confidence.

I am not even confident if my writing here actually fits into this thread. Probably not... Meh doesn't matter a true Manatee doesn't care xD

xD Oh my god, I feel so bad for not responding sooner, especially after you were like- look at how much you respond! and you totally caught me! xDyou didn't see anything.. :p I'll be honest though you're not alone! As even I have not been as active on here for the past while (although I still check back almost everyday out of reflexive boredom haha) and yay! Glad to hear you feel more settled with type! Confidence hits can cause a lotta confusion on typing, so I hear ya on that! Double glad to hear from you again! and I apologise for being such a cotton headed ninny muggins and not responding sooner :p

Hahaha, a true manatee forever moves forward until they hit the glass window ;) So you keep moving forward, wavin that Austra(a) flag!

1) Where are you from/where do you live?
Born in Asia, Lives in California

2) How old are you? (Ballpark is more than fine)
Mid 30s

3) What sort of work are you doing?
IT

4) What do you look to gain out of being here?
Try to understand myself and help others

5) How did you find out about your type? (It's ok if you're still unsure)
This is quite a long journey. I first got ENTP from 16types, then went on Reddit forum. Someone told me that my answer doesn't sound like ENTP, which leads me to a journey to find what's my right type. This leads from doing tests from different sites and then understanding cognitive function. When doing different searches I pull answers from many different sites, including PersonalityCafe. I have also embarked on enneagram test which shows my type and the correlation to ENFP. Then I delve more into ENFP deeper which confirm my type

6) What are you favourite things in THE world!?
Hanging out with people I love

7) How long have you been putting off paying those bills??
I have to rely on auto-payment or else I get dinged with late charges
