5. You are probably doing more than you’re being given credit for.
”¨ENFJs thrive off validation, but don’t always receive it from those around them. When this happens, ENFJs tend to get down on themselves and believe the lack of feedback is because they are not trying hard enough. Nine times out of ten, this is not the case. Every ENFJ needs to remember that not being thanked does not always mean not being appreciated — chances are they’re silently appreciated every single day.
6. You, more than anyone else, deserve your own care and concern.
”¨ENFJs are almost always the strong “Mama or Papa Bears” of any group. They are constantly watching out for their friends, but not always monitoring their own well being. ENFJs need to remember that their own health and happiness is just as important as that of the people they protect – after all, a group of cubs is lost without their healthy Mama bear.

6 Reasons Why Everyone Should Have An INFP Friend
INFPs are the creative and thoughtful friends who have an innate understanding of what makes people tick. Despite their quiet nature, INFPs are fiercely protective of the people and ideas that they care about. This highly intuitive type takes some getting to know, but you will never regret taking the time to do so — here’s why they make the best friends imaginable.
1. They’re natural therapists.
It doesn’t matter what an INFP actually does for a living — their single greatest skill lies in analyzing those around them. You know those days when you’re feeling a little off but can’t put your finger on why? That’s not a problem when you have an INFP best friend.
Within the span of a three minute phone call, they can tell you that you haven’t gotten over the judgmental comment your colleague made three days ago, which triggered a reaction in you this afternoon when your boss didn’t praise you for your latest project and you’ll get over it once you finally make peace with the fact that your mom never expected you to be as successful as your brother. INFPs possess a borderline scary ability to get inside your brain and figure out what’s going on — a skill that often saves you a fair amount of work.
2. They’re the least judgmental people imaginable.
INFPs believe that every set of actions has a corresponding set of reasons behind it – which is why they find it difficult to pass judgment on others. INFPs are the absolute best people to go to when you’ve done something wrong and need a safe space to work through your feelings. They understand that everybody makes mistakes. And while they may not coddle you, they will always make an effort to understand where you are coming from.
3. They’re spontaneous and fun-loving.
Despite their serious demeanor, INFPs possess an almost child-like appreciation for life. Once they are comfortable around someone, they can switch on their silly side at a moment’s notice. INFPs are those friends you can call up at midnight to come build a fort and bake cookies with you and be sure that they’ll answer with an enthusiastic “YES!” Once you get a glimpse of the light-hearted side of an INFP’s inner world, the energy will become contagious.

4. They accept your most embarrassing emotions.
An INFP is like the secret blog you kept in high school – you can tell them all your most pathetic thoughts and trust that you will never be ridiculed. If there is a feeling that exists in the world, your INFP friend has felt it ten times over. This means on the days when you’re feeling seriously #emotional, you can text them stuff like “I am the tree that falls alone in the forest” and they won’t even laugh at you. They’ll probably be all “Fear not, you always make a sound to me” and then you’ll both get this warm, fuzzy feeling in your heart and never talk about the text again.
5. They protect their loved ones to death.
There’s only one thing more important to an INFP than avoiding conflict and that is defending the people and principles that they care about. While they’re quietly unassuming at the best of times, INFPs can rile up like no other when they’re offended. And nothing offends an INFP like a person they love being crossed. This fiercely loyal type would go to the ends of the earth for the people they care about — and take down anyone who dares try to stop them.
6. They see your potential, even when you don’t see it yourself.
INFPs see the good in everyone they meet – almost to a fault. When you are down on yourself, there is no one on earth who you can count on to pick you up as genuinely and lovingly as an INFP. Chances are they have a carefully crafted list of things they admire about you that they’ve simply neglected to mention. This type is naturally inclined to see the best in everybody around them. And if they’ve selected you to in their circle of friends, they probably see a lot of the best in you.
All you have to do is ask.

Here’s What Would Happen If We Put All The Myers-Briggs Characters Into The Hunger Games Together
INFP – Since all fiction novels seem to be written by INFPs for INFPs with the message that the person with the kindest heart wins, this type often assumes that they would champion the Hunger Games. In the real hunger games the INFP is first to get shot off their podium because they were daydreaming during the countdown and don’t notice that the games had actually started.
INTP – The INTP climbs up a tree and reverse-engineers the entire Hunger Games. He picks apart the system, analyzes each of its parts, figures out how to dismantle the entire force field and then gets high on some game arena ganja and forgets to follow through with his plan. That night he falls out of the tree he is sleeping in and land on his own weapon, dying quickly and relatively painlessly.
INFJ – The INFJ forms a quick alliance with the ISFP who is outraged by concept of the games. The two sneak off into the forest and make camp, where the INFJ takes the first watch of the night. When a cruel group of STs comes to prey on the two of them, the INFJ throws their body over the ISFP’s, pleading to be killed instead. The group complies – seeing the ISFP as no real threat anyway – and the INFJ happily dies as a martyr.
ESFP – The ESFP is the capitol’s sweetheart. Charming enough to receive bids and athletic enough to run away from potential predators, they survive for a few days in the wild. On day three they get hopelessly bored in their solitude and decide to eat some wild mushrooms that they hope will have psychedelic side effects. They do. The ESFP wanders into the lake, thinking it is made of ice cream, and subsequently drowns.
ENFJ – The ENFJ had formed alliances with half the participants prior to entering the hunger games, which quickly turns into a cult known as “District Fe.” Participants listen to inspirational speeches each morning about the power of sharing ones feelings and watch a beautiful romance unfold between their leader and the group ENTP. One morning when the camp wakes up to find the ENFJ dead in their tent and the ENTP nowhere to be seen. The Fe district dismantles quickly afterward, leaving only the ESFJ to remember their noble leader.
ENFP – The ENFP survives for a while at the hands of the ENTJ that they have formed an alliance with. After three weeks of prancing around the forest yelling excitedly about all the super-cool special effects of the arena, the ENTJ finally shoots the ENFP just to get them to shut up for five minutes.

After three weeks of prancing around the forest yelling excitedly about all the super-cool special effects of the arena, the ENTJ finally shoots the ENFP just to get them to shut up for five minutes.
ISTJ – The ISTJ survives for a while by posing as an ISFJ in District Fe. On day four they are found hiding behind a tree pledging allegiance to the capitol. They are swiftly shot by the ESTP who passes the death off as blasphemy but really just didn’t care to hear any more empowered speeches about the ISTJ’s willingness to die for their district.
ISFP – After waking up alone in the forest, the ISFP decides to peacefully protest the hunger games. They receive multiple bids from district 11 but eventually starve to death because the forest creatures were too cute to kill.
ESFJ – The ESFJ forms an alliance with the ESTJ, whom they trust to protect them. They hold up their end of the bargain by cooking meals out of forest berries and diligently maintaining the campsite. The ESTJ keeps up their part of the bargain by killing the ESFJ in their sleep.
ISFJ – After the downfall of District Fe, the ISFJ isn’t sure where to go. They hang out with their best ESTP friend for a while then realize that one of them is eventually going to have to betray the other and dies in a stress-induced heart attack.
ESTP – Though unquestionably charming and quick on their feet, the ESTP has trouble staying focused on the hunger games for more than ten minutes at a time. They are regularly distracted by the physical challenges presented in the arena and die trying to slack line across two mountain peaks with their GoPro.
INTJ – The INTJ escapes quickly from the limelight and stews in an underground lair for several weeks. They develop a complex plot to take down each of their opponents then get killed when a flash flood hits their lair. It is later revealed that the game makers created the flood intentionally because the INTJ’s reclusiveness made for bad TV.
ESTJ – Though celebrated for their practical leadership skills in the beginning, the ESTJ becomes a liability near the end of the games. The ENTP decides to deal with this matter by asking the ESTJ what everyone else in the Hunger Games did wrong. While the ESTJ wheels off a long-winded rant about the incompetency of the other constants, he is shot through the heart by the sneaky and unforgiving ISTP.
ENTP – Keenly aware that they are approaching victory, the ENTP grows confident in their ability to booby trap the remaining candidates. They construct an elaborate set-up, prepare themselves for victory, then step in the trap accidentally and die at their own hands.
ENTJ – Realizing that there are only two competitors left, the ENTJ becomes stressed about not having planned out their victory speech. While they are developing a strategy for the contestants they will mentor next season, the ISTP sneaks up behind them and shoots them unfailingly through the heart.
ISTP – Wins. Was there ever any question?

7 Things You Should Know Before You Date An ENFP
1. Challenge them.
Quality conversation is the ultimate foreplay for an ENFP. This type thrives on exploring new ideas and appreciates anyone who can intelligently challenge the way they think. A good debate is a good first date. The more ideas you bring to the table, the sexier you become to an ENFP. Seduction, for this type, begins in the mind.
2. Be consistent.
ENFPs have an all-or-nothing personality, which is why they are drawn to the grounded presence of introverted, intuitive judgers. INTJs and INFJs make the best romantic matches for this type. Introspective partners are the ying to an ENFP’s over-zealous yang. Much like children, their excitable natures are comforted by meaningful, structured thought.
3. Keep an open mind.
ENFPs are weirdos. The sooner you accept this, the easier things are going to be. They have a new life plan every five minutes, may contradict themselves several times during a single conversation and quite often come to conclusions that have nothing to do at all with what you’re talking about. Take all of this in stride. ENFPs move a mile a minute but it can be a lot of fun to move along with them. Just make sure that you are open to exploring new topics, new activities and new positions. They seldom disappoint.
4. Stand your ground when it matters.
ENFPs are as stubborn as they are open-minded. They fiercely defend the values that matter to them and respect others who do the same. The way to an ENFP’s heart is to show them where your own priorities lie and to stand for those priorities unapologetically. ENFPs are not pushovers and they don’t expect their mates to be either.
5. Provide feedback.
ENFPs thrive on communication. They have a genuine investment in making their partner happy, but don’t always go about properly. For example, an overly enthusiastic ENFP may plan an elaborate surprise party for their introverted partner, who may in turn feel quite stressed by the event. In these cases it’s best to gently break it to the ENFP that you appreciate their efforts but the method may not have been the best. ENFPs are sensitive to direct criticism but value the health of their relationship. If they are doing something wrong, they want to know.
6. Make them feel free.
There is nothing an ENFP loathes more than the feeling of being tied down. While this type is often fiercely committed in a relationship, they don’t fancy putting their own personal growth on a backburner. A healthy relationship, to an ENFP, means that both parties are growing and evolving alongside each other but neither remains stagnant.

7. Get ready for some really strange whims.
You may have to gently inform your ENFP that yes, even though the documentary you just watched on penguins was way cool, you can’t go to Antarctica with them on Thursday because you have work. But sit with them while they Google the plane tickets anyway. It’s eternally the thought that will count.

Here Is What Happens When Each Myers-Briggs Personality Type Makes A New Year’s Resolution
ENFP
“I resolve to make less than thirty new years resolutions this year, and keep at least two of them.”
Outcome: Stays up for fourteen straight days in an attempt to complete first resolution and subsequently ends up creating fifteen more.
ISTJ
“I resolve to be less regimented and spend more time relaxing.”
Outcome: Schedules relaxation between 3:15 and 3:42pm each afternoon, during which time they create detailed lists of how they will relax on following days.
ESFP
“I resolve to party less… On weeknights… Before 5pm.”
Outcome: Drunkenly announces their resolution to five hundred of their closest friend on Thursday January 1st, at the bar, at 4pm.
ENTJ
“I resolve to screw over marginally less of my colleagues as I fearlessly charge towards success.”
Outcome: Keeps a detailed chart of co-workers they are not preying on. Eventually hires a colleague to manage this chart as a distraction while the ENTJ rises above them professionally.
INFP
I resolve to stop falling in love with the idea of people and being disappointed when their reality does not match up.
Outcome: Explains this resolution in a heartfelt letter to their love interest, who they just know will understand.
ISFJ
“I resolve to spend more time focusing on what I want instead of catering to the needs of others.”
Outcome: Mercilessly commits to this resolution until a loved one implies that it is inconveniencing them.
ENTP
“I resolve to only turn only every second conversation into a heated dispute.”
Outcome: Finds an unsuspecting ESFJ to debate the practicality of this resolution with.
ESFJ
“I resolve to gossip less and accept others’ choices without judgment.”
Outcome: Phones their closest friend to ask what their resolution is and then phones fourteen of their other closest friends to discuss their first friend’s resolution in totally non-judgmental detail.
ESTP
“I resolve to think through the consequences of my actions before I make them.”
Outcome: Adheres to their resolution for the first two – four days before being presented with a better plan and impulsively getting on board with that one instead.
INTJ
“I resolve to listen to the opinions of my less intelligent underlings.”
Outcome: Derives motivation from the opinions of commoners to fuel a series of research projects that prove everyone’s opinions to be indisputably wrong.
ISFP
“I resolve to give myself more credit for my talents and advocate for my own abilities.”
Outcome: Sits down to review their strengths, decides on twelve new ways in which their art form is imperfect and gets back to working on perfecting it.

ESTJ
“I resolve to find subtler ways of letting everyone know that my way is always best.”
Outcome: Loudly announces to colleagues that they all ought to make the same New Years resolution.
ISTP
“I resolve to get serious about one of my side interests and turn it into a profitable enterprise.”
Outcome: Develops a keen side interest in entrepreneurship, which they thoroughly analyze and develop ideas about.
ENFJ
“I resolve to avoid meddling in the lives of my loved ones, even if they are making a mistake.”
Outcome: Allows their friends to fail at their new years resolutions, then sits each of them down to talk about what went wrong and how they can fix it.
INTP
“I resolve to find practical implications for my work since the physical world does, unfortunately, exist.”
Outcome: Derives a theoretical implication for the practicality of their latest project and considers their resolution a success.
INFJ
“I resolve to be less of a perfectionist and share more of myself with others.”
Outcome: Refuses to disclose resolution to others, for fear that they will have to admit failure if they do not achieve it.

Here’s Where You Should Live Based On Your Myers-Briggs Personality Type
ISFJ – Zurich, Switzerland
If there’s anything an ISFJ likes it’s a clean, well-ordered environment where everyone gets along nicely and everything works the way it should. In the pristine city of Zurich, ISFJs will find themselves perfectly at home. Reserved but polite, the citizens of Switzerland don’t like to raise much of a fuss unless they have to. They go about their days, get business done as they should and then retire to their well-maintained homes with their close-knit families. Ever-neutral Switzerland is the ideal spot for the peace-seeking ISFJ. No fuss, no muss, no hefty disagreements.
ENTP – Hong Kong
Hong Kong offers a diverse fusion of the Eastern and Western worlds, with enough food, entertainment, languages, religions, diversity and opportunity to keep the ENTP intellectually stimulated until the end of time. This type loves exploring new avenues of thought and new methods of experiencing life. The sprawling city of Hong Kong is as diverse as the ENTP’s mind – constantly presenting a new opportunity to learn, progress and change. It is the ideal fit for the ever-evolving existence of the ENTP.
ISTP – Queenstown, New Zealand
Coining itself the “Adrenaline capital of the world,” Queenstown looks like a giant playground to the sensory-oriented ISTP. This type thrives on hands-on activities and is drawn to extreme sports like heli skiing, skydiving, mountain biking and hang gliding. ISTPs can usually be found dangling from cliffs with a Gopro strapped to their head and complete disregard for the rules strapped to their psyche. They’re independent by nature and adventurous in spirit – more or less the precise definition of a Kiwi.
INFP – Amsterdam, The Netherlands
Tolerance and mutual respect are at the core of Amsterdam’s values, which sits well with the peace-keeping INFP. This type craves harmony, connection and deep analysis of the human condition: All of which present themselves in the eclectic city that is Amsterdam. Once you get past the scandal of the drug scene, you find a fascinating well of culture that resembles the psyche of the INFP: Hesitant and reserved, yet deeply understanding of various forms of life. INFPs find comfort in the liberal values of Amsterdam, while enjoying the space to fully consider their own beliefs and values.

ESTJ – Shanghai, China
Known as the economic, commercial and financial center of China, Shanghai is an ideal fit for the business-savvy ESTJ. This type thrives on efficiency and progression in the workplace, which means they like to move up quickly. Shanghai offers the opportunity for ESTJs to play in the big leagues of international business, while still occasionally letting loose and getting rowdy in one of the many international nightlife districts. This impressive Chinese city places the hard-working ESTJ right in the heart of opportunity.
INTP – Silicon Valley, USA
Not so much a city as a suburb of one, Silicon Valley is an ideal spot for the innovative INTP. This type thrives in intellectually stimulating environments that encourage both logical analysis and creative inspiration. The massive quantity of tech companies and startup businesses in Silicon Valley allows the opportunity for this inquisitive type to thrive. There is no shortage of brainpower in the intellectual district of San Francisco, which means the INTP almost never runs out of new ideas to pick apart.
ESFP – Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
ESFPs like it hot – in every sense of the phrase. Rio de Janeiro is alive and thrumming with music, culture, passion and excitement, which is perfect for the vivacious ESFP. This type likes to be where the action is and where the party never stops. Rio de Janeiro provides unlimited opportunity for this people-centered type to mingle, mix and live it up.

ENTJ – New York, USA
If there’s one thing ENTJs love it’s getting things done – in the most efficient and progressive way possible. This innovative type likes to be exactly where the action is, so that they can analyze the action, come up with a more efficient way to harness it and then turn it into a profitable enterprise that they get to take charge of. What better a place for this progressive type than the center of the world, New York City? They want to be on top of all the latest developments and if there’s one place where the action never stops, it is in the big apple.

INTJ – Seattle, USA
As the most highly educated and most literate city in the United States, Seattle offers an ideal fit for the cerebral INTJ. This type is open-minded yet guarded, curious yet hesitant and private yet deeply ihesitant and private yet deeply intrigued by all aspects of the human experience. Seattle itself offers similar contrasts: It is progressive yet secluded, wealthy yet humble and urban yet environmentally conscious. INTJs find themselves perfectly at home in this progressive city, as the science and technology fields attract NT types in hordes. This means they have an ideal peer group to share thoughts, ideas and theories with. Plus the gloomy weather tends to drive people indoors, so the INTJ is free to shut themselves away to work on their latest project.
ISFP – Honolulu, Hawaii
ISFPs are the embodiment of the tranquil, harmonious culture of Hawaii. This type puts a heavy emphasis on aesthetics, which makes the lush backdrop of Honolulu an ideal spot for the artistic ISFP to find inspiration. Collectivistic yet reserved, this type enjoys deep connections with loved ones but takes time to warm up to others – which is why the small, remote location of Hawaii suits them perfectly. Small enough to comfort them, wild enough to let them roam free.
ENFJ – Florence, Italy
With all of the charm but less of the chaos of most Italian cities, Florence’s delightful streets practically beg for ENFJ invasion. The quaint streets and comfortable neighborhoods allow for close-knit communities to form, which is a priority for the ENFJ. This type loves nothing more than establishing deep connections with others and fostering those relationships closely. The family-oriented culture of Italy embraces these values whole-heartedly – with a country steeped in history and artistic creativity to boot.
ISTJ – Berlin, Germany
ISTJs like clear-cut, upstanding efficiency – and Germany offers the ideal cultural fit. The historical city of Berlin holds a heavy focus on education, development and intellect, which appeals to the no-nonsense nature of the ISTJ. This type doesn’t hesitate when it comes to getting things done and they enjoy living in a city that holds the same value. Patriotic to the core but private with their personal lives, this type enjoys the structured, independent values of Germany.
ESFJ – Los Angeles, USA
ESFJs want to be where the people are – particularly where the people are hooking up, shacking up, breaking up and living it up. This type thrives on connection, which makes the celebrity-ridden matrix of Los Angeles an ideal spot for ESFJs to keep up to date with the latest goings-on. Plus the ever-changing nature of the film industry provides ample opportunity for people-centered work, which is what the ESFJ truly shines at.

INFJ – Paris, France
Paris offers an unprecedented combination of class, culture, history and style. The city has been a metropolitan melting pot of artists and intellectuals since its first days and is unbearably attractive to the idealistic NFs of the world. Valuing privacy but feeling deeply engaged with the artistic community, INFJs find themselves blending nicely into the cosmopolitan streets of Paris. They are able to explore their interests in depth, engage with the history of the nation and keep to themselves as much or as little as they please. The delightful French culture of Paris sits well with the INFJ – who is as rare a gem as the city itself.
ENFP – San Francisco, USA
ENFPs barf rainbows. San Francisco barfs rainbows. It’s a perfect fit. But in all seriousness, the liberal values of San Francisco have been attracting NF types for decades. Known for its hippy-dippy attitude and intellectual focus alike, the city is a perfect fit for the idealistic, liberally minded ENFP. This type enjoys exploring numerous avenues of self-expression and personal growth, which San Francisco provides ample opportunity for. This buzzing, vibrant city mirrors the attitude of the effervescent ENFP in almost every way possible.

7 Reasons Why INFJs Could Rule The World And One Reason Why They Shouldn’t
Here is why INFJs would make ideal world leaders:
1. They have the impressive ability to predict the actions of others.
A unique characteristic of the INFJ personality is their ability to predict with eerie precision which move someone’s going to make next. Whether this is a sleazy political candidate or the powerful leader of a nation, INFJs tend to be one step ahead of everyone they meet. They can prepare and execute plans according to what will likely happen, not just what is happening currently.
2. They empathize with and respond to the feelings of the masses.
INFJs are highly in tune with what’s going on in the world around them. They feel the pains of inequality and unfair treatment as if they were experiencing it themselves. A healthy INFJ can apply rational solutions to emotional problems, which is no small feat to master.
3. They are idealists with follow-through.
INFJs see the world as it could be and they set their standards high. However, what distinguishes the INFJ from the other idealist types is their ability to convert their visions into tangible actions. An INFJ with a dream is an INFJ with a plan. They are in equal parts dreamers and doers.
4. They gain trust quickly.
INFJs connect quickly and deeply with almost everybody they meet. They pick up on emotional subtleties that other people miss and can efficiently get down to the core of what it is that someone wants or is hurting from. People who know INFJs for a short period of time feel as though they’ve known them forever – which makes this type easy to trust.
5. They’re inspirational as hell.
INFJs know exactly what they need to say to motivate, rile and inspire masses. They are eloquent speakers who offer concrete plans alongside their promises. They can instantly make a distressed group of people feel impassioned through addressing their concerns with precision and clear-cut decisiveness.
6. There are motivated by helping others rather than by personal gain.
The morals of an INFJ are highly stable – this is because they feel the pain of others almost compulsively. They cannot be happy with themselves until they know that they have done their best for those around them. While this attitude can exhaust an unhealthy INFJ, a healthy version of this type uses their powers for good. Their strong-willed, influential presence is focused on helping others, not on benefiting themselves.

Their strong-willed, influential presence is focused on helping others, not on benefiting themselves.
7. They are humble and down-to-earth.
INFJs are as far from being tyrants as it’s possible to get. This type rarely thinks of themselves as “above” or superior to others. They understand that we are all in this life thing together and we’re all simply doing the best we can. INFJs understand the core nature of humans better than any other type – which is why, naturally, they should be ruling the world.
There’s only one thing in the way of this plan, which is:
1. INFJs don’t want to rule anything.
An INFJ would hate ruling the world. This type dislikes taking center stage and prefers using informal methods for inspiring others. INFJs are wildly uncomfortable with telling others what to do, despite the fact that they probably do know what’s best. If there’s anything INFJs don’t want to be it is responsible for all of humanity – which is unfortunate because they would be absolutely excellent at it.

9 Unmistakable Signs You’re Dating An INTJ
1. They’re taking forever to make a move.
INTJs are not impulsive people. In fact, it could take them years to properly decide whether or not the two of you make sense together. First they have to discern whether or not they are attracted to you. Then they have to assess your suitability as a partner. Last but certainly not least (in terms of time allocation), they have to form an action plan regarding which steps they should take to win you over. This process doesn’t happen overnight. It takes a long-ass time for an INTJ to make a move but when they do, you can bet your ass they’re serious about it.
2. You feel a little bit like they’re studying you.
INTJs are interested in people – what makes them tick, what pushes their buttons and how they operate on a rational and emotional level. In the initial stages of getting to know an INTJ it can feel like they’re constantly analyzing you – most conversations are focused on you and you are constantly hearing the words “Interesting,” or “I see.” It takes a bit for the INTJ to shift the focus onto him or herself – they like to listen first and reveal their opinions second.
3. They don’t take well to changing plans.
If you’ve planned a dinner date with an INTJ on Friday, please – for the love of God – do not call them up Thursday night and say you’d rather go to a party. INTJs plan out their every move – they have probably been contemplating your date on Friday since Monday. Changing the plan at the last minute is offsetting to them – and will almost never go over well.
4. Sex is as mental as it is physical.
To the INTJ, arousal is not purely instinctual. Attraction begins in the mind and the best way to get them in the mood is to mention a sexual fantasy that gets them thinking – hard. INTJs are creative, kinky lovers who view some parts of sex as a challenge. They want to constantly improve their game and continually get their partner off in better, more creative ways. This type enjoys the mental connection that comes with sexual intimacy just as much as they enjoy the raw physical component.
5. They understand your motivations better than you do.
We all sugar coat our own core feelings – it’s how we stay emotionally stable. The INTJ, however, isn’t interested in sugar coating anything. They analyze people exactly as they are – the good, the bad and the downright terrifying. They’re often able to identify what it is that inspires and drives you on a level that even you aren’t aware of. It’s a little bit creepy at first but it becomes incredibly useful over time. Just go with it. They get you and that is (usually) a good thing.
1. They’re taking forever to make a move.
INTJs are not impulsive people. In fact, it could take them years to properly decide whether or not the two of you make sense together. First they have to discern whether or not they are attracted to you. Then they have to assess your suitability as a partner. Last but certainly not least (in terms of time allocation), they have to form an action plan regarding which steps they should take to win you over. This process doesn’t happen overnight. It takes a long-ass time for an INTJ to make a move but when they do, you can bet your ass they’re serious about it.
2. You feel a little bit like they’re studying you.
INTJs are interested in people – what makes them tick, what pushes their buttons and how they operate on a rational and emotional level. In the initial stages of getting to know an INTJ it can feel like they’re constantly analyzing you – most conversations are focused on you and you are constantly hearing the words “Interesting,” or “I see.” It takes a bit for the INTJ to shift the focus onto him or herself – they like to listen first and reveal their opinions second.
3. They don’t take well to changing plans.
If you’ve planned a dinner date with an INTJ on Friday, please – for the love of God – do not call them up Thursday night and say you’d rather go to a party. INTJs plan out their every move – they have probably been contemplating your date on Friday since Monday. Changing the plan at the last minute is offsetting to them – and will almost never go over well.
4. Sex is as mental as it is physical.
To the INTJ, arousal is not purely instinctual. Attraction begins in the mind and the best way to get them in the mood is to mention a sexual fantasy that gets them thinking – hard. INTJs are creative, kinky lovers who view some parts of sex as a challenge. They want to constantly improve their game and continually get their partner off in better, more creative ways. This type enjoys the mental connection that comes with sexual intimacy just as much as they enjoy the raw physical component.

Just go with it. They get you and that is (usually) a good thing.
6. They react best to direct communication.
INTJs have no patience for passive-aggressive comments or subtle remarks. If something is amiss in the relationship, they appreciate being told point-blank what is wrong and what the best course of action would be to fix it. INTJs want to maintain harmony in a relationship – they simply don’t care to achieve it through guesswork.
7. They don’t argue from their emotions.
To an INTJ, every conflict is a puzzle to be solved. Though they can get their feathers ruffled just like any other type, their first reaction is always to break down a given situation, analyze what is or isn’t working and strive to improve upon the existing method of operation. Sound a little technical? Because it is. INTJs use logic to deal with just about every component of their lives – which means they’re going to need a bit of reflection time before they can tell you how they feel about a conflict.
8. They do, however, experience surprisingly strong emotions.
Once an INTJ has decided that you are the partner for them, they become highly emotionally invested in the relationship. Though they aren’t always the masters of showing it, INTJs are emotional – even romantic – at heart. They show their love by devoting themselves to the relationship and by tirelessly working to improve it.
9. When it ends, they need closure.
INTJs are balanced out by Ne dominant types – that is, ENFPs and ENTPs. The tricky part of this equation is that both types are a little less relationship-oriented than the serious INTJ. When a partner leaves the relationship with little warning, the INTJ has a difficult time moving on until they can fully understand the cause for the upheaval. Relationships are a puzzle just like everything else and the INTJ wants to solve it before they can finally put it to rest.

8 Common Misconceptions About ENFPs
ENFPs have four modes of processing input: Their first is extroverted intuition (Ne), which dwells in ideas and possibilities and make connections about the world around them. The second mode is introverted feeling (Fi), which processes things according to an internal value system and analyzes how the ENFP feels. The third is extroverted thinking (Te) which organizes information in a logical fashion that produces the best possible results. The fourth is introverted sensing (Si) which organizes information and stores past experiences.
Because extroverted intuition and introverted feeling are the two main functions of ENFPs (and therefore the most readily apparent), quite a few stereotypes develop about how this type behaves and processes information. Here are eight common misconceptions about this ever-contradictory type.
1. ENFPs are go-with-the-flow
Here’s the thing about ENFPs: When we don’t care about something, we don’t care all the way. If we’ve decided that material possessions don’t matter much to us, you could come into our house, accidentally smash all of our plates and we’d be all “Hey don’t worry about it! Who needs plates to be happy? Not me!” But when it comes to our goals and desires, we are the least chill people imaginable. Everything this type does is deliberate, no matter how off-the-cuff is appears to be. An ENFP doesn’t just go on a trip or start a new job – they are constantly at work analyzing, evaluating and making connections between everything that they do. Plates don’t necessarily make the radar. But the big stuff does. And no ENFP is chill about the big stuff.
2. ENFPs wear their hearts on their sleeve
ENFPs are warm. They’re welcoming. They’re kind. But what they are not is comfortable with personal disclosure. This type has introverted feeling, which means they prefer to work through emotions internally. The main functions that the ENFPs use to interact with the world are extroverted intuition (Ne) and extroverted thinking (Te). This means that they enjoy asking questions, debating ideas and formulating theories aloud. They save the emotional stuff for when they get home.
Note: This is somewhat dependent on Enneagram type. An ENFP type 4 may totally want to read you their slam poem, whereas an ENFP type 7 would rather die.
3. ENFPs are commitment-phobes
ENFPs are not always quick to jump into serious relationships but this is more often an issue of compatibility than one of commitment. ENFPs connect relatively quickly with most people. But they want more than a surface-level connection and a few common interests: they are searching for a specific, intense relationship that both challenges and grows them. If they find this, they are ALL IN. If not, the horizons are still being scanned for what else is out there. With goals, plans and relationships alike, ENFPs are in all the way or not at all.

4. ENFPs are always happy
ENFPs hold the pervasive belief that there is always something left to look forward to. This does not at all translate to constant happiness. Though this type gives of a light-hearted, fun-loving air, they actually take life quite seriously. ENFPs feel their lows just as intensely as they feel their highs – they just aren’t as comfortable expressing negative emotion as they are positive.
5. ENFPs are promiscuous
ENFPs are known for being notorious flirts and highly sexually active, neither of which entirely holds true. While ENFPs are generally quite liberal in their values (Sexual and otherwise), they get off on emotional connection. Literally. This type does not enjoy meaningless sex and they have to feel connected to their partner in some way in order to enjoy the act. That being said, ENFPs do form connections quite quickly and quite often. Make of that what you will.
6. ENFPs are highly sensitive to criticism
Here’s the deal with ENFPs – we have a select number of people whose input we hold in high esteem. If you’re on that list, we take your criticism to heart in a huge way. If you’re not on the list, we could not care less what you have to say. Introverted feeling is very particular in this sense. If we respect you, your input matters. If not, what you say gets brushed off and the ENFP barrels on forward.
7. ENFPs are social butterflies
ENFPs love people – that’s no secret. What’s not as obvious is that ENFPs put an incredible amount of stock into their personal relationships. Trying to maintain five hundred surface level friendships would be exhausting for this type. They give off a friendly air, but are really unable to maintain more than a handful of close relationships at a time.
8. ENFPs are free spirits
ENFPs are not the free-spirited hippy types that they are so often made out to be. Though their values are liberal and their methods unconventional, ENFPs are incredibly driven folk who almost always have a clear-cut goal in mind. They don’t want to go wherever the wind blows them. They want to be the freaking storm, and God help anything that gets in their way.

Here’s The Most Attractive Thing About You Based On Your Myers-Briggs Personality Type
ESFP – Your confidence.
You’re sexy and you know it. It’s not just that you have rock-hard abs (though you usually do), the ease with which you attract your gender of choice is apparent in everything you do. You are effortlessly personable and the confidence you have in your own people skills is irresistible.
INTJ – Your intelligence.
It’s no secret that you usually have the highest IQ in the room. Everything that comes out of your mouth is an educated, thoroughly analyzed opinion and it’s difficult to champion your knowledge on almost any topic. You know your stuff inside out and backwards – and it’s hot.
INFJ – Your intensity.
There is nothing meek or helpless about you. You are a highly intelligent, highly perceptive individual who understands others on a deep level. This gives you the unique ability to connect quickly with new people. It’s an intense experience for those on the receiving end of it and it makes everything about you seem hella sexy.
ENFP – Your enthusiasm.
You care more about your latest idea than most people care about everything else in their lives combined. And the energy’s contagious. People admire the positive vibes you bring to the table and they want to share in whatever it is that you’re so pumped on – hell, they want to be the next thing you’re excited about.
INFP – Your depth.
There is infinitely more to you than meets the eye and your slightly mysterious vibe is compelling. People who meet you for the first time want to know more about what’s going on inside your mind – and it keeps them coming back for more.
ENFJ – Your attentiveness.
You have this very specific ability to look someone in the eye and make them feel as though you’re staring straight into their soul. The presence and introspection that you bring to the table is a rare gem and it’s unnervingly attractive.
ENTP – Your wit.
It’s not just the quick, clever jokes (though it’s also those) – everything about the way your mind works is both refreshing and compelling. You establish dominance almost accidentally through your intellectually rebellious nature and it’s insanely attractive.
INTP – Your indifference.
I hate to admit it but one of the most attractive qualities someone can exhibit in the 21st century is simply not giving a shit about the dating game. You’d genuinely rather be left alone to your thoughts and to the many emotional masochists out there, you’re the very definition of a challenge.
ISTJ – Your reliability.
You are the definition of the strong, silent type. People are attracted to your no-fuss-no-muss attitude – they want someone they can rely on and you’re the definition of dependable. Plus your dry humor doesn’t hurt.
ESFP – Your confidence.

ESTP – Your nonchalance.
You are personable, capable and confident – all seemingly without trying. We don’t know how you pull it off, ESTP, but your cool as a cucumber attitude is alluring and absorbing. Something about you just dares us to put ourselves on your radar.
ISTP – Your aloofness.
Your offbeat, somewhat distant attitude is endearing at worst and insanely attractive at best. Despite the fact that you’re somewhat reserved in conversation, it’s obvious that you’re a Jack-of-most trades who can take care of yourself with ease. Your aloof independence is hot.
ESTJ – Your decisiveness.
It’s difficult not to respect your frank, assertive nature. You go for your goals with no holds barred and you don’t care who or what tries to stand in your way. Your confidence in what you want makes others want to be the thing that you want.
ESFJ – Your togetherness.
You somehow manage to always be miles ahead of the rest of us when it comes to general adulting. You’ve got your ducks in a row and you’re looking for a partner who can measure up. People are attracted to you when they’re looking for a partner who’s got their shit together and pulls it off with style.
ISFP – Your sensuality.
We’re not sure if it’s your impeccable style, your quiet creativity or your unexpectedly rebellious side but something about you just oozes sexuality. You are mysterious in all the right ways and it makes people want to know you intimately.
ISFJ – Your composure.
You are polished, composed and incredibly humble to boot. You don’t demand attention but you attract it through your put-together attitude. People are attracted to your stability and grace – whether you realize that you possess it or not.
ENTJ – Your aggression.
You don’t mess around when you see something you want. You are assertive, direct and smart about getting what you want and it’s a purely irresistible quality. Your dominant nature is hot. And you make sure that whomever you’re going for knows it.

15 Songs That Capture The Spirit Of Being An ENFP
ENFP having an Identity Crisis | Grace Kelly – Mika
ENFPs see possibilities everywhere, even within their own personalities. Like Mika, every ENFP knows the feeling of envisioning various versions of their best self and going a wee bit “Identity mad.”
ENFP asserting their independence | Billy Joel – My Life
ENFPs are fiercely individualistic. This type knows what they want out of their own lives and they aren’t interested in arguing with anyone who disagrees.
ENFP resisting growing up | Anna Sun – Walk the Moon
Let’s see – three minutes spent dancing around a dilapidated building asserting that a good heart makes up for a lack of shelter/money, and then a paint war amongst a group of adults who are having vivid flashbacks of their childhood – sounds like a classic case of the ENFP Peter Pan syndrome to me.
ENFP encouraging a friend | Nico VegaӬ РI Believe (Get Over Yourself)
ENFPs are the most optimistic of any type – they fiercely believe in the possibility of better things for both themselves and the people they love. They live to inspire others through their unwavering confidence that the best is always yet to come.
ENFP looking to turn things around for themselves | The Bleachers – I Wanna Get Better
Self-improvement is the backbone of any ENFP. Though their proneness to distraction may occasionally lead them down the wrong path, they are always keen to get back on the right one – and they will fight their way there through any means necessary.
ENFP taking a chance on love | Air Traffic Controller – You Know Me
“This could be a rollercoaster/But we’re going to make the most of it” might as well be the entire ENFP motto.
ENFP getting lost in analysis | Lost In My Mind – The Head And The Heart
Though their primary focus is external, every ENFP experiences a vivid inner world that occasionally sucks them in. This type is prone to over-analysis, which can sometimes cause them to feel disconnected from the world around them.
ENFP seeking stimulation | Third Eye Blind – Semi-Charmed Life
ENFPs always want more out of life – more stimulation, more excitement, more meaning. No matter how great things get, they are always going to be on the search for a little something else.
ENFP working on their latest project | Queen – Don’t Stop Me Now
An ENFP working on a new project is the definition of “Inspired.” This intensely determined type will stop at nothing to achieve what they want – and the high they get from pursuing their goals is unmatchable.

Two ENFPs getting together | Walk the Moon РӬShut Up and Dance With Me
Every time two ENFPs meet, the Universe explodes a little. Although this high-energy type needs a more grounded personality to balance them out long-term, the chemistry between ENFPs when they first meet is undeniable – and a little bit out of this world.
ENFP in love | ӬHall & Oates РYou Make My Dreams Come True
ENFPs spend a lot of time day–dreaming and when they fall in love it feels like all of those daydreams are coming true. Like Tom from 500 days of Summer, an ENFP in love may as well have a marching band following them around everywhere they go.
ENFP bouncing back from a failure | Chumbawamba – Tubthumping
ENFPs are nothing if not resilient. After a brief period of sulking, this type bounces back from failure with confidence, enthusiasm and the eternal willingness to try again.
ENFP planning for the future | Ellie Goulding – Anything Could Happen
ENFPs are compulsive planners but at the end of the day they prefer keeping their options as open as possible. A perfect future for the ENFP is one where absolutely anything could happen.
ENFP reflecting on their life | One Republic – I Lived
Every ENFP’s dying wish is to know that they squeezed every last bit of life that they could from their years. They want to know that they have seen, done and felt it all.
And, of course, the ENFP Anthem | Queen – We Are The Champions
We are, after all, known as the Champions in the Myers-Briggs world.

ENFPs spend a lot of time day–dreaming and when they fall in love it feels like all of those daydreams are coming true. Like Tom from 500 days of Summer, an ENFP in love may as well have a marching band following them around everywhere they go.
ENFP bouncing back from a failure | Chumbawamba – Tubthumping
ENFPs are nothing if not resilient. After a brief period of sulking, this type bounces back from failure with confidence, enthusiasm and the eternal willingness to try again.
ENFP planning for the future | Ellie Goulding – Anything Could Happen
ENFPs are compulsive planners but at the end of the day they prefer keeping their options as open as possible. A perfect future for the ENFP is one where absolutely anything could happen.
ENFP reflecting on their life | One Republic – I Lived
Every ENFP’s dying wish is to know that they squeezed every last bit of life that they could from their years. They want to know that they have seen, done and felt it all.

Here’s How You Are In Bed Based On Your Myers-Briggs Personality Type
ENFP
You don’t enjoy sex if you don’t have an emotional connection with your partner. That being said, you connect emotionally with just about everyone you meet so this isn’t really a problem for you. You’re a warm and enthusiastic lover who enjoys exploring all facets of their sexuality. You don’t NEED sex in the physical sense of the word but as soon as you meet someone you’re excited about, it is ON. In whatever weird new way you can think of.
ENFJ
You get off on making other people happy so when you’re in a committed relationship, your sex drive is through the roof. You err on the conventional side sexually but that’s not necessarily a bad thing – you’re a giver in life and a giver in the bedroom. Y’all hate to ever disappoint.
INTJ
You see sex as a challenge (Okay you see everything as a challenge). You want to be constantly improving sexually and consistently finding new ways to make the experience more intense for both yourself and your partner (Edging must have been invented specifically for and by the INTJs). The flip side of this highly mental game is that you can occasionally let loose during sex – you enjoy the rare opportunity to temporarily detach from your over-active mind and let your physical impulses take over. It’s not often your brain gets a break – sex can occasionally provide that outlet.
ESTJ
You approach sex the way you approach everything else – loudly, proudly and as a prime opportunity to flex your muscles. You take a great deal of enjoyment in sex but don’t focus much on connection. Can you last forever? Yes. But do your partners kind of feel like you’re just masturbating using their body? Also yes.
INFP
You guys put the love in lovemaking. Potential partners need to know that for you, sex is never strictly a physical affair. Getting it on is a matter of connecting emotionally with whomever you’re sleeping with, which is why the INFP/ENFJ duo is dynamite. The only thing you guys love more than romantic intimacy is reflecting on said intimacy once it’s over. You want a partner whose lovin’ makes you feel something.
ISTJ
Does the idea of having sex in a pre-determined position with a consistent partner at exactly 9pm on every Tuesday, Wednesday and Saturday evening appeal to you? You must be an ISTJ. This type sees sex as a systematic part of any healthy relationship. While you do intrinsically enjoy doing the nasty (Who doesn’t?), you’re not keen to try anything crazy. People sleep with you when they want a predictably good time.

People sleep with you when they want a predictably good time.
ISTP
You enjoy the physical component of sex much more so than the romantic/intimate portion. You’re highly visual and are turned on by immediately apparent stimuli – think lingerie, perfume, a swanky hotel suite that begs you to have sex in it. You’re not into anything too crazy sexually but you’re open to trying different things. You can err on the promiscuous side but if it requires work, forget it. You can masturbate alone. No issue there.
ESFJ
You’re a warm, affectionate lover who wants to make your partner happy above all else. You see sex as a concrete opportunity to show your partner how you feel about them and want to make sure that everyone’s enjoying him or herself throughout. Sex can occasionally feel like a chore, but you don’t mind getting it on if you’re not in the mood so long as it makes your partner happy. You’re sexually traditional but you make up for it in enthusiasm.
INTP
You have a hard time getting out of your head in bed. You need to feel a high level of comfort with a partner before you’re able to be intimate with them, emotionally or physically. That being said, once you come out of your shell, you get freaky (in a good way). You like to experiment and you enjoy when a partner exposes you to new ways of doing things. INTPs go through long periods of celibacy but are all in once someone gets them going.
ISFJ
Your goal is first and foremost to accommodate the person you’re sleeping with. Sex is an opportunity to physically display your love so it’s best with someone you’re involved with and committed to. You’re not naturally a freak in the sheets but whatever your partner is interested in you’re up for (within reason). You want to experience connection and show devotion to your partner, which sex offers a perfect opportunity for.
ENTP
Like most N-dominant types, you can be described as borderline sapiosexual. You don’t just want to fuck someone’s body – you want to delve in deep and fuck their mind. You’re turned on by the strange, the intelligent, the lustful and the downright kinky. The stranger and more perverted the fantasy, the better. You’re the reason why kink websites exist.
ISFP
You believe that actions speak louder than words, which means that a great way to show someone how much you care about them is to give them the good lovin’. You’re the very definition of sensual and you’re as physically creative in bed as you are in all other pursuits. Your partners feel appreciated, wanted and satisfied. Good work.

ESTP
You’re direct about what you want, which is great. You’re also athletic, interactive, engaged – all objectively good things when it comes to sex. Just remember that unlike sports, sex has an emotional component to it. If you’re not checking in with your partner to make sure they’re comfortable and enjoying him or herself, you’re not going to score more than once.
ENTJ
Is someone looking for a dominant, Christian Grey-style lover? Everyone knows that you’re the one to call. You’re imaginative and explorative in the bedroom, remaining highly receptive to your partner’s desires. Nothing pleases you more than knowing that your partner went on a unique, relatively kinky sexual journey – and that it was you who led them there fearlessly.
INFJ
You take a while to get physical. Before you get it on with someone you want to trust them, understand them, and connect with them on a core level. You aim to please in the bedroom, making sure your partner is eternally comfortable and happy around you. The best sex is intimate, passionate sex between two people who connect on a mental – borderline spiritual – level. Give you that and you’re a firecracker in the bedroom.
ESFP
You win at sex. First of all you have extroverted sensing paired with introverted feeling, which basically means that you ooze sexuality. You place a high emphasis on the satisfaction of your partner, you’re incredibly open-minded and your sheer set of physical/sexual skills is unmatchable. Simply put, you’re amazing in bed. Gold star. You’re the holy grail of sexual partners and don’t you ever forget it.

8 Reasons Why Everyone Needs An ISFJ In Their Life
1. They’ll be real with you – in a kind way.
ISFJs preserve the unique talent of being both die-hard realists and incredibly compassionate individuals. This means that when you get caught up in a fanciful idea, the ISFJ in your life is happy to help you implement realistic steps that will bring you closer to your dream. They’re realistic in a way that helps, never hinders.
2. They’ll be by your side come hell or high water.
‘Loyal’ is the ISFJ’s middle name. This type takes their commitments to others incredibly seriously and once they’ve let you into their inner circle, you have a friend or companion for life. ISFJs stick by your side no matter what tribulation you’re facing – they’ll be the first to show up and the last to leave your side when you’re in need.
3. They are genuinely happy for their loved ones.
There are two types of friends in this world – those who are “Happy” for your successes and those who genuinely walk around with a bounce in their step on the days when you’re soaring. The latter is the very definition of an ISFJ. This type feels a personal sense of joy when their loved ones are thriving and you’ll always find this type in the front row clapping when you win.
4. They pick up on subtle patterns in behaviour.
ISFJ’s are not entirely forthcoming about the ways in which they’re analyzing those around them but they’re incredibly aware of behavioural patterns – which choices you make on the regular and which mistakes you fall into time and again. If you’re looking for the type of insight you just can’t have on yourself, turn to an ISFJ – they’re quietly aware of your tendencies and they can give you a realistic idea of what you’ve been doing wrong (and right) this whole time.
5. They are the world’s most patient listeners.
Though they may require a bit of processing time before offering up an opinion, the ISFJ will listen to you talk until the end of time. This type enjoys taking in and storing new information, particularly as it pertains to their loved ones. If you’ve had a rough day and you just need to vent, the ISFJ will always be there to listen – and probably to give you a back rub.
6. They are deliberate and genuine in all undertakings.
Because they rarely – if ever – speak without thinking, you can rest assured that any kind words the ISFJ offers you are straight from the heart. This type weighs heavily on every declaration and decision they make, which means you never have to worry about them saying or doing something in the heat of the moment that they don’t actually mean. This type is genuine on all counts. They may not always say everything they mean but they certainly mean everything they say.

This type is genuine on all counts. They may not always say everything they mean but they certainly mean everything they say.
7. They are generous and thoughtful, while asking nothing in return.
Careful not to take advantage of this one. ISFJs are natural givers – nothing makes them happier than helping you out with a practical problem or endeavour. They are happy to drive you to the airport, make you dinner, give you a place to sleep or surprise you with an unexpected gift. These small acts make them genuinely happy and they don’t expect anything in return. That being said, it also means they get taken advantage of a little too often. Careful not to ask too much of your ISFJ – they’ll rarely turn down the chance to help you out, even if it’s taxing them more than they readily admit.
8. They will go to the ends of the earth to make your relationship work.
Whether it’s a friendship, a partnership or a familial tie, the ISFJ will do anything and everything within their power to preserve the relationships they’re invested in. Once they’ve accepted you into their inner circle there’s nothing this type will not do to make sure that both of you are happy and benefiting from the relationship. They’re the ultimate companions and once you have an ISFJ in your life, you’ll wonder how you ever got by without them.

Here’s Who You Were In High School Based On Your Myers-Briggs Personality Type
ESFJ
You were popular. High school was a place where you naturally thrived, as you enjoyed navigating the politics that came along with placing one thousand angsty teenagers together and forcing them to mingle relentlessly. You dated often, played whatever sport it was cool to play and were probably kind of mean for the first couple of years. You still miss high school a bit, to be honest.
ENFP
You were either the class clown or the drama geek, possibly both. You had a strange, disjointed friend group that ranged from total nerds to reigning socialites and mostly you just floated around. You couldn’t wait to finish high school and go do your gap year in Zimbabwe, which you talked about pretty unceasingly.
ESTP
You were a jock. You were the first of your friends to get laid and you enjoyed the sense of superiority it brought you. You popped your collar, played a lot of sports and possibly dealt a few drugs on the side. Teachers liked you so you skimmed by in school. High school was a good time for you.
INTJ
You were a stereotypical nerd. You took advanced placement everything and consistently achieved straight As. You didn’t have much time for the politics or drama of high school because you were busy preparing your application for Harvard, which you got into by the end of your junior year. High school was a largely uninteresting time for you and you regarded it only as a means to the end of higher education.
INTP
You were a less stereotypical nerd. You were smart but didn’t much care for the way most subjects were taught and chose to skip school quite a bit. The social scene didn’t much interest you, save for a few friends who you sat with at lunch and talked Star Wars with. You pretty much just rode high school out, earning decent grades with minimal effort and frustrating teachers with your consistent refusal to ‘apply yourself.’
ESFP
You held all of the parties worth going to in high school. You were effortlessly popular and widely desired by the opposite sex. You had a natural knack for athleticism, fashion and charming others, which allowed you to be dominant without engaging in the deadly sin of trying too hard. Everyone wanted to be you or be on you and high school was a time that you enjoyed.
ENTP
You were the hot nerd. You could usually be found arguing with teachers and authority figures over the latest lesson that they were wrong about, just because you felt like raising hell. You were a badass with brains and it was sexy. High school was okay but you couldn’t wait to get out and have complete autonomy over your life.

ISTP
You were the skater boy Avril Lavigne was singing about. You were punk back when punk was a thing and your attitude of genuine aloofness was attractive to the opposite sex (Unfortunately you were too aloof to notice). You thought high school was, in a word, meh. But that was your opinion on everything.
ENFJ
You were the valedictorian. You were well-liked, high-achieving, head of several social committees and you probably planned prom. You were the person everyone else’s moms asked them why they couldn’t be more like.
ISFP
You were the quiet, artistic kid with awesome taste in music. Social status wasn’t your greatest concern but you were just alternative enough to be considered cool and got invited to all the right parties. You were known for always bringing a blunt and for being surprisingly insightful.
ISTJ
You were probably the hall monitor. Sticking to the rules was your jam and you consistently achieved straight A’s through hard work, dedication and diligence. Once you memorized basic social protocol you got on okay with your peers but never cared to get too involved in the social scene. You were over high school by your sophomore year and couldn’t wait to be around levelheaded adults in the real world.
ESTJ
You were the high school bully. You quickly picked up on social protocols and rose to the top of the food chain because others feared your wrath. You were a somewhat obnoxious teenager who could usually be found taking lunch money off the emo kids or picking a fight to flex your muscles.
INFJ
You were a band geek. Your best friends were fellow band geeks, one of whom you lost your virginity to and then dated on and off until high school ended. You got straight A’s, but that was a given. When you were not in band practice you could be found reading alone in the library, wearing an “I ISFJ
You were the teacher’s pet. You got straight A’s, scraped by socially and ended up marrying your high school sweetheart. You were too sweet to be picked on but too shy to be popular so you stuck close to a few good friends and just rode your teen years out.
ENTJ
You were the student body president. You kept a tight reign on your social standing, extra curricular presence and grade point average. You were neurotic but in a way that worked for you. You were voted “Most likely to become the next President” in your high school yearbook, which you oversaw the production for.

INFP
You were a bookworm. You could be found on the fringes of the social scene, hanging out with emo or hipster kids and daydreaming through most of your classes. You weren’t a huge fan of high school because it didn’t provide you with ample opportunity to express yourself. You knew that once you got into the real world it’d be your chance to shine.

25 Struggles Only ENFPs Will Understand
1. Getting your energy from social interaction, but disliking superficial conversations. Yes, I want to go to a party tonight. But a party full of contemplative people who want to alternate between taking shots and discussing the meaning of life.
2. Being very socially conscious but also fiercely individualistic. This means always wanting to fit in with a group, but never wanting to compromise your personality to do so.
3. The constant tug-of-war between ‘YES, I WANT TO GO EXPERIENCE EVERYTHING RIGHT NOW’ and ‘Wow, I need a lot of time to process these experiences, can I take a breather?’
4.Having a thousand great ideas that you never follow through on.
5. Regularly forgetting that your physical needs exist.
6. Getting into the perfect job/relationship/groove and hearing that nagging voice in the back of your mind going “But maybe there’s something even BETTER out there…”
7. Constantly contradicting yourself because you genuinely see multiple sides to most situations.
8. Everyone thinking you’re flirting with them, all of the time.
9. Being a HUGE, UNSTOPPABLE FORCE of creativity and productivity… an hour before the deadline.
10. Getting bored 500 times faster than the average human being.
11. Constantly biting off more than you can chew… and then chewing it out of stubbornness.
12. Stressing out friends and acquaintances who don’t like straying from the original plan.
13. Working towards a constantly altering notion of your “ideal self.”
14. When you have to complete a task that you simply cannot find a way to make fun.
15. Begrudgingly identifying Peter Pan as your spirit animal.
16. People underestimating your intelligence because you lead with the fun, upbeat parts of your personality.
17. Needing significantly more alone time than other extraverts.
18. Others being surprised that you hold such strong opinions and beliefs, despite your easy-going nature.
19. Trying to explain to the people closest to you that yes you love pretty much everyone, but you love them the MOST.
20. People thinking you’re looking for advice when you simply need to process things out loud.
21. Staying in bad relationships because you focus on how things COULD be rather than how they are.
22. Wanting to be alone… but like, with other people nearby.
23. Appearing shallow because of your tendency to flit from topic to topic in conversation, with lightening speed.
24. Having a fiercely independent streak… but getting bored without company.
25. Being a walking contradiction in almost every way, but knowing that you wouldn’t change a thing, even if you could.

1. Getting your energy from social interaction, but disliking superficial conversations. Yes, I want to go to a party tonight. But a party full of contemplative people who want to alternate between taking shots and discussing the meaning of life.
2. Being very socially conscious but also fiercely individualistic. This means always wanting to fit in with a group, but never wanting to compromise your personality to do so.

The Definition Of Hell For Each Myers-Briggs Personality Type
ESTJ – An incredibly impractical person is put in charge of all of your major life decisions. You have to do whatever they say and are powerless to argue or reason with them.

INTJ – Every time you open your mouth to say something intelligent, something entirely idiotic comes out instead.

ESFP – You are stuck in a room by yourself for the rest of eternity.
ISTP – The Zombie apocalypse happens but you’re suddenly the world’s weakest fighter and must depend solely on your loved ones to keep you alive.
ENFP – Every minute of the rest of your life has been scheduled for you – and it’s a long series of arbitrary, solitary tasks.

INTP – You are eternally condemned to researching an extremely vapid topic using wildly inaccurate methods, mostly involving interviewing people who have no idea what they’re talking about.

The ENFP’s Guide To Dating Other Idealist Types
ENFP and ENFJ
Despite sharing three of the same letters, ENFPs and ENFJs have no cognitive functions in common. These types may have common interests and may even appear similar on a surface level, but their modes of reasoning are entirely opposite. For this pairing to work, one partner would always have to be working from their auxiliary function, which would quickly exhaust whoever was doing so.
Strengths of this pairing: Both types are abstract thinkers who make decisions based on how they feel about a situation rather than on cold, hard logic. At best, the ENFJ can provide structure for the ENFP and the ENFP can bring a creative spark to the ENFJ’s life as they pursue mutual goals.
Potential pitfalls of this pairing: ENFP may view the ENFJ as judgmental and overly rigid, while ENFJ may view the ENFP as a scattered or less mature version of themselves. Both types might see just enough of themselves in the other to think that they can change them – which either type would respectively resent.
Verdict: Not a great romantic pairing – it is likely to give way to resentment over time. This combination works better for friendships.
ENFP and INFP
These two types share all of the same cognitive functions, in only a slightly different order. This allows for an incredible ease of understanding between the two types and a bond is often quick to form between ENFPs and INFPs. These two types usually become quite close quite quickly, but the relationship is prone to competitiveness over time.
Strengths of this pairing: These types tend to understand one another with ease, feel stimulated through mutual conversation and experience a high level of comfort in each other’s presence. The ENFP can help pull the INFP out of their head and engage their extroverted intuition when needed, whereas the INFP can ground the ENFP and help them to work through their feelings when they’re having trouble doing so alone.
Potential pitfalls of this pairing: Two introverted feelers in one relationship tends to lead to feelings of competition. Both types want to be the “star” of their relationship when it comes to creativity and passion, and may feel threatened by the other. At worst the INFP may be overwhelmed by the ENFP’s high energy level and view them as shallow or not set in their morals and the ENFP may view the INFP as overly sensitive and unable to deal with practical matters.
Verdict: Not a bad pairing. If both partners are highly comfortable with their dominant and auxiliary function, this can be a highly satisfying and relatively beneficial pairing.

ENFP and ENFP
All the same cognitive functions in all the same order? What a party! … Right?
Right. ENFP-ENFP pairings actually have the potential to give way to a highly satisfying relationship, so long as both partners are comfortable with themselves entering the relationship. These types understand one another on an instinctive level and have very little trouble understanding where the other is coming from when a conflict arises. That being said, the relationship is primed for competition. In order to make it work, both partners have to commit to being humble and supportive of their partner’s ambitions. And someone has to remember to pay the bills at least some of the time.
Strengths of this pairing: These types understand one another intuitively, maintain a similar energy level, value self-improvement and finally feel as though they’ve found someone they’re on the same page with. At best, these types foster a deep connection that makes them feel at home with each other almost effortlessly.
Potential pitfalls of this pairing: Because of the similarity between these partners, if one has a particular insecurity, they will most likely see it in their partner and be disgusted by it. On the flip side, these partners may be too accepting of one another, and forget to challenge or push each other to grow, in or outside of the relationship. Their natural tendencies won’t balance each other out, so certain tasks will always be a strain on both parties.
Verdict: Go for it! Depending on what you’re looking for. If you want the ultimate challenge in a partner, probably pass up the ENFP-ENFP pairing. But if you’re looking for a partner in crime who understands you to the core, choose the ENFP. It has the potential to be a perfectly blissful relationship.

ENFP and INFJ
Although these types share absolutely zero cognitive functions, their stackings mirror one another’s – they both use their intuition function first, their feeling function second, their thinking function third and their sensing function fourth. This means they are able to provide unique perspectives on similar issues to one another – these types tend to be fascinated by each other and get along quite swimmingly once they come to understand what makes the other tick.
Strengths of this pairing: These types balance one another out immaculately. The INFJ tends to appreciate the ENFP’s optimistic nature, open-mindedness and strong ambition. The ENFP in turn appreciates the INFJ’s grounded attitude, analytical nature and their ability to turn dreams into concrete plans. These types tend to see each other’s “blind spots” which means they can push each other to grow in ways that would not be immediately apparent to the other partner. This has the potential to be a relationship that fosters a great amount of development and a high level of satisfaction for both parties.
Potential pitfalls of this pairing: I’m just going to put this out there – most people who claim to be INFJs are actually not INFJs. This is probably the most misdiagnosed type, so be careful. You’re going to have to look at the cognitive functions they’re displaying to figure out whether or not they’re the true match for you. That being said! If you have found yourself a true blue INFJ, here are a few potential struggles:
At worst, the INFJ may see the ENFP as scattered and selfish, whereas the ENFP may see the INFJ as rigid and lacking a backbone (depending on the INFJ’s developmental state of their judging functions).
Verdict: This pairing offers serious potential for a long lasting, highly fulfilling relationship. A true-blue INFJ is one of the ideal romantic matches for the ENFP.

Here’s What You Should Know Before You Date An ENTP
1. They need space to explore their many interests.
If there’s anything an ENTP loves, it’s spearheading a new project that will have a lifespan of anywhere from one day to the rest of their lives. They are energized through taking on new pursuits and rising up to challenges – and they will crush whatever (or whomever) gets in their way.
If you’re interested in winning the heart of an ENTP, you have to understand that their latest idea is always going to be the center of their world. Trying to distract or dissuade them from this pursuit will end badly for everyone. Just give them space to explore it – or better yet, take an interest in what they are doing. They’ll appreciate your understanding and you’ll become more attractive in their eyes for it.
2. They enjoy having their way of thinking challenged.
ENTPs are quick thinkers and smooth talkers – two qualities that can be difficult to keep up with. This type enjoys nothing more than examining multiple sides of a theory and their favorite way to do it is out loud, through a stimulating discussion with someone else. If you are able to effectively challenge an ENTP’s thoughts about something and allow them to view it in a different light, you will earn their respect. Intellect is direly important to this type and they seek out partners who value knowledge, analysis and intellectual growth above all else.
It’s important to note that debates and intellectual discussions are rarely, if ever, personal for the ENTP – they are simply a form of mental exercise that provides this type with energy. If you are prone to taking debates or heated discussions personally, the ENTP is probably not the partner you’re looking for.
3. They want you to grow with them.
If there’s anything an ENTP loathes, it is stagnancy. This stimulation-centered type is intrigued by change and inspired by growth – they are constantly looking for ways to improve both themselves and their environment. ENTPs are best suited with a partner who appreciates self-improvement and wants the relationship to be a place of constant growth. There is nothing worse than getting ‘comfortable’ for an ENTP – comfort is boring and boredom is the ultimate torture. They appreciate a partner who is willing to always be a little bit uncomfortable in order to continue to grow individually or as a couple.

They appreciate a partner who is willing to always be a little bit uncomfortable in order to continue to grow individually or as a couple.
4. You’ll need to set personal boundaries.
Pushing boundaries is at the core of the ENTP’s nature – and whether they realize they’re doing it or not, they will push yours. ENTPs seek to understand the people around them as thoroughly as possible – they will want to know the absolute intricacies of what makes you tick and then they will test what they’ve learned. Until they encounter resistance, ENTPs will push the envelope endlessly.
Let your ENTP know what you are and aren’t comfortable doing or talking about. This type needs a partner who can set firm boundaries and stand by them. They’ll admire your resolve and though they’d loathe admitting it, they’ll respect your unwillingness to bend over backwards for them.
5. Everything is theoretical to them.
ENTPs need to understand the greater principle or theory behind everything they do – which means their feelings and even their opinions will not always be straightforward. The ENTP will turn almost everything into a philosophical discussion – including conflicts that arise in your relationship. They need to reason their way to how they feel. It doesn’t mean they don’t care about you. It just means that they get there through analysis rather than instinctive feelings.
6. They can be incredibly blunt.
When an ENTP cares about you, they’ll tell you openly and honestly what they’re thinking – even if it’s not pretty. This type isn’t big on sugar coating the truth, unless they’re manipulating it for their own gain. While some may find the ENTP’s frank nature offsetting, others can appreciate it for what it is – a genuine form of communication that doesn’t waste time tiptoeing around the point at hand. They get right to the root of an issue and they appreciate when a partner does the same.
7. Emotional issues are best presented as challenges.
ENTPs aren’t particularly romantic by nature – but they are good at pretty much anything they put their mind to. This means if they see a lack of emotional development on their part as something that’s hindering the relationship, they will likely be keen to improve it. When you’re up against an emotional wall with your ENTP, the best way to side step it is to explain to them how your relationship would improve by working through the issue at hand. They’ll be keen to explore ways to improve your connection and strengthen your relationship as a result.
Pushing boundaries is at the core of the ENTP’s nature – and whether they realize they’re doing it or not, they will push yours. ENTPs seek to understand the people around them as thoroughly as possible – they will want to know the absolute intricacies of what makes you tick and then they will test what they’ve learned. Until they encounter resistance, ENTPs will push the envelope endlessly.
Let your ENTP know what you are and aren’t comfortable doing or talking about. This type needs a partner who can set firm boundaries and stand by them. They’ll admire your resolve and though they’d loathe admitting it, they’ll respect your unwillingness to bend over backwards for them.
5. Everything is theoretical to them.
ENTPs need to understand the greater principle or theory behind everything they do – which means their feelings and even their opinions will not always be straightforward. The ENTP will turn almost everything into a philosophical discussion – including conflicts that arise in your relationship. They need to reason their way to how they feel.

8. Their interest in the world around them does not equal a lack of interest in you.
ENTPs are often painted as flighty lovers who have no interest in maintaining a committed relationship. In actuality, this is far from the truth. It’s not that ENTPs are anti-relationships so much as they’re pro everything else. If a relationship seems like it will stand in the way of what they want out of life, the ENTP will cast it aside. If, however, they perceive a relationship as something that will challenge, push and grow them, this enthusiastic type is all in. ENTPs can be the most attentive, passionate and devoted of lovers – so long as their partners understand that change will be the relationship’s only constant.

ENFJs are the organized, people-savvy nurturers who serve as the glue of almost any group of friends. You know that totally together, super popular person you wish you could hate but can’t because they’re so genuinely nice? Probably an ENFJ. This extroverted type feeds off the energy of other and derives their greatest joy from seeing those around them thrive. The only downside:ENFJs get so wrapped up in the lives of those around them that they often forget about their own needs. If you have an ENFJ in your life, here are a few things they most likely need reminding of.
1. You deserve to have feelings of your own.
”¨ENFJS draw their greatest joy from the happiness of others, which means that their own feelings are often put on the back burner. No matter what’s going on with those around them, ENFJs need to remember that their own feelings are important – and that they ought to be nurtured just as carefully as the feelings of those around them.
2. Not all decisions are set in stone.
”¨ENFJs take decision-making very seriously. They don’t fancy the thought of backtracking on a choice, especially if that choice involves a commitment to someone else. This occasionally means that they will stay in bad situations longer than necessary.
Every ENFJ needs the occasional reminder that it’s okay to change their minds. Re-evaluating our priorities is a natural part of being human in this ever-changing world, and nobody should feel guilty for exercising that right. In the long run, a change of plans might even work out best for everyone.”¨
3. Some people only learn the hard way.
ӬThere is nothing more painful for an ENFJ than being around a struggling friend who will not accept help. At these times, it is important to remember that the process of coming to a decision is often just as important for loved ones as actually reaching it is. While an ENFJ may genuinely see the best path for someone they are close to, supporting someone as they find their own way can ultimately be more helpful than simply pointing them in the right direction.
4. It is not your personal responsibility to solve everyone’s problems.
”¨ENFJs take the weight of everyone else’s’ issues on their shoulders — which can be a heavy burden to bear. ENFJs need to remember that taking on a problem does not mean it is their fault if things do not work out — any help they give is simply a bonus.
