Who you want to be versus who you are. | Page 5 | INFJ Forum

Who you want to be versus who you are.

Many of these one-word generalizations are much too vague. Surreal, how? Loud, how? How is "tough" different from "strong?"
 
But yes, for intuitives, it would be ideal. I think sensors would more often want to be ESTJ.

Nah, they secretly admire us. They just can't understand us. They still wish they could do what we do.

Exactly. Physically Tough? Mentally Tough? Emotionally Tough? This isn't a very well designed test.

i actually think it'd be more accurate if someone else (who knew you pretty well) did the test for you... less chance of bias

That one made me pause.
Surreal, like what? A Salvador Dali painting?

That's what I always think of in relation to the word surreal.
 
Yup. You've described the ideal person, both male and female, according to the sensibilities the media bombards us with.

Something like that. I actually value by introversion. I only want to be a little more sociable, i.e. crawl out of my hole once in a while, not extrovert sociable.

I feel sorry for ENTJs though. They never seem to know what they really want in life. They go for success, wealth, power and end up miserable if they don't get it, and sometimes even if they do.

ideal type - INTJ, real type - INFP


type ideal real type behavior
I 3 3 quiet, private, few friends
E -1 -3 outgoing, expressive, many friends
N 8 1 random, mysterious, non linear
S -5 -5 sequential, factual, practical
F -1 0 emotional, passionate, selfless
T 2 0 willful, stoic, self reliant
J 5 -6 planned, regimented, orderly
P -1 0 spontaneous, playful, fun

okay. So I don't feel J enough, and my current F and T is 0. I do feel like an INFJ, and somewhat aspire to be that by personal choice, so I apply subjective result as per my result being INFP, but the T part...I suspect coping mechanism.

OMG, what's happening with me.

I don;t have much respect for this test. It said I'm an INTJ whose ideal would become slightly less J and slightly less N without changing type. I am however an extreme INTP, who if anything would want to move closer to INFJ. There is no way that I am or would want to be a Te/Fi user.
 
Posting because I'm a little surprised by what I got from this one...

Wow! I can test as INTP a lot though so I guess I'm pretty content with who I am.

Also am I the only introvert who's completely fine with being introverted?

Edit: Looking at this I'm really not far off, It's not lack of N that makes me ISTP, it's too much S.

N 4 4 random, mysterious, non linear
S 4 5 sequential, factual, practical

Haha, not really, the last bit shows that I'm developed further than him. :p

Edit: I find it really interesting that I want to be less developed.

Not unusual for INFJ's to type as INTJ sometimes. Dove does, Indy does, I'm sure a lot more do aswell.
