Okay, this is the last thread I will make in a while.
I was going to stop but I wanted I really wanted to ask others about this, but I want to get better at figuring out what a person's type is so that I can have an easier type predicting compatibility and/or trouble areas to avoid and understand that person better. It also would be helpful so that I can understand if simply I am doing something that is really offensive or rude, or if simply it is something to do with that person's dominant functions and If I am treading over a sensitive area, or...( it something else)
I am really bad at figuring out or telling what a person's type is though. I don't think the MBTI is the defining measure for understanding or evaluating a person; because everyone is still unique and complicated uniquely to themselves, but I wonder if perhaps it would save a lot of frustration if I became more adept at this skill.
Some of my personal experiences with type in real life: Another thing too: I think I've been surrounded by and have run into ESTJ's my entire life, or at least it seems this way on the outset. ESTJ's/ESFJ's, and they are always shaming, criticizing and I am getting into conflicts with them over their views on things. It's no offense to them, I just wish for example I could more easily find other NF's, which I've oddly hardly ever come across in my life (why is this?) I also wonder if NT's and NF's can get along well? I can be quite pensive and analytical and I think I can get along with T's quite well, though I wonder too if on average such would not be the case and they would see NF's as idyllic and head-in the clouds nonesense people?
When I took the MBTI in a group setting, I was surprised, it seems like NF's are like all the really weird people who are eccentric. I met a INTP who took the test, and we were quite similar in some ways, (I realized, I had a lot of NT friends in the past) and I can almost pass off as one, but my NF side comes out and they think I am "gay"-ish, or just really effete or something, I cannot really describe it. I was also surprised, the NT was always badgering me to be normal, and thought I was slow or stupid or something (which often, my demeanor is mistaken as)
