How do you know about the personality types of other's?

I only know if someone tells me or if I've suggested they take the test and then they tell me the result. It doesn't come up often at all.

 

This is a thing where a lot of people on the internet pretend that they do but they actually dont and sometimes does a poor job at it.

In type me threads I could write a lot about what I do use, way too much to fit for a thread.
But in "concrete non-virtual" life, I most of the time do not type anyone. Ok, actually I have some types where I click quite badly, and I only focus on recognizing these (INFJ is not one of them, otherwise I wouldnt be here), but in general I dont know what type the person is unless on a type me thread online or if the person does tell me the type. However, recently one you tuber that I watched went talking about MBTI, I paused to video, think for 30 seconds, said to myself "INTJ or INTP, not that much Introvert" and the you tuber said himself: "I scored last time as INTJ, but today as INTP and I see more myself on the INTP description than on INTJ description" and I was pretty much happy that my guess was quite accurate. On that day (it was this week), in these 30 seconds I first thought of stereotypes, he fitted the INFP one, then I revised all dichotomies (I vs E, N vs S, etc..) and realized that there was too much Ti and Te, so I switched to INTP, and then I realized that the guy had somewhat of INTJ vibe and Te vs Ti and Ne vs Ni wasnt that clear, which made me in doubt if INTJ or INTP.

 

To tell you the truth, I don't know the personality types of others. I can only read them by what they say and do.

 

I have a bad habit of asking people to take the test lol

 

I have an INFP uncle who pisses me off.

 

Cool

People are all the same
