I found some of the Silmarillion characters MBTI

I have to either keep my braincells for reading this or writing RP posts. You decide.

Write the RP post, please! 😂

Hmm, that sounds like Fëanor! 😂

As I said, not an ideal situation. 🙃

And for me personally, sometimes I find the Ni-Ti loop to be a much safer and more comfortable place than exposing myself to Fe, because I suck up other peoples' emotions like a sponge and that's just exhausting.

Fi alone --> 😊
Ni-Fi --> Neither safe nor comfortable.

Ni-Fe: This person used a period at the end of their sentence when they texted me. They hate me!

Oh. I found out they just like writing properly.

... could they like writing properly and still hate me?

Ni-Te: Lol, they wasted time putting punctuation in a text. Or it was autocorrect.

Well, I guess I need to figure this out now, as someone has asked me in a PM what my type is.

(Actually, they've asked me if I'm a very specific type, which I suspect means they've come to a pseudo-conclusion based on my behaviors on the Forum, and seek confirmation of their perceptions.)

Anyway, I suppose it's not a bad tool to avail onesself of and see what flops out. (I suspect, if I understand it rightly, it may change given the mood of any particular individual at any given time... but we'll see what I think after I actually get to the end of it.)

Gotta find where to go to make it happen... off I go into the forest again for a time.

Well, I took the test. It did not show me to be what the requester suggested.
I don't know if that's good or bad.
I suspect it just is what it is.

 

[Maedhros_Nelyafinwë]

Well now I'm curious what your type is, Ent!

I see MBTI as a useful tool for understanding people better, and for writing more realistic characters, but not as something that defines your identity or anything. I certainly don't fit perfectly in the stereotypical INFJ box.

 

[Ent]

Well. It SAYS I'm an INTJ-A.
Looking at the 'descriptions' it comes up with afterward, I do think it reflects some things fairly accurately.
But... so do soothsayers and crystal ball readers. (is there a difference between those two?)
And psychologists, and psychiatrists.
And even politicians and sports players.

So... there it is.

 

[Ent]

Oh my... the more I read some of this tripe, the less it sounds like tripe.

 

[Glorfindel Goldtress]

It's actually what I thought you'd be though I never mentioned it!

Oh my... the more I read some of this tripe, the less it sounds like tripe.

It's pretty good overall in explaining. I've yet to find something completely off for anyone I know who's taken it!

We're INTJ buddies! 👨‍❤️‍👨

Same as me.
These personality types try to describe how you think (the way your mind generally processes things). I reckon they describe things pretty well, though everyone will still turn out different based on their upbringing and what they choose to think about.

MBTI archive: INTJs are one of the rarest types in the world.
TTF members: huh.

Everyone: INFJs are the rarest type!

Me: *signs up on a personality type forum and meets a bazillion other INFJs*

Also, I've had multiple INFJ friends in my life. I think we can sense each other. 😂

Yes, and the other "rarest" and "one of the rarest" types, are all the other types the test produces.

Having pondered Humanity in all its glory(?) for a very long time now, I will say this... we may be able to 'generalize' about certain people and their general being given how they feel about themselves on the day they take such a test...(a very changeable, and constantly changing, thing)...but every single one is an individual.

They're like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're gonna get.

What is funny is that in my friend group from middle school, we have two INTPs, an INTJ and an INFJ. It's like a rare type party here!

p.s. - this is why we must always be in a 'proactive' state, rather than a 'reactive' one.

The 'proactive' state deals with what IS... not with what 'might be.' It is creative, and on-point.

The 'reactive' state either deals with what IS from a pre-determined set of 'possibly successful' response criteria, or deals with what 'might be' out from predefined suppositions and expectations. Both will be inadequate to the moment.

The friends I've had where I've known their type: INTP, ENFP, ENTJ. They were rare finds to me. They did not act like most people. Probably why we became friends.
Also, I think you'd find a greater amount of introvert and intuitive types online. The extrovert and sensor types are a bit more likely to look for social interaction in person.

Extroverts: partying their twenties away

Rare introvert types on different forums: So I found this little ladybug today, and I've appointed it to mend my Converse shoes.
