What I think you are...

: If you use the method of seeing the four letters as individual qualities, you would be an INTJ. You have preferences for introversion, intuition, thinking, and judging. : However, if you see yourself through a Jungian function type analysis you would be an INTP - Introverted Thinking with Extraverted Intuition. : I prefer the function types myself, and I think it would describe you best. Introverted Thinking would be your dominant function, your auxilary would be Extraverted Intuition, your tertiary Introverted Sensing, and your inferior (and repressed) Extraverted Feeling. : I don't think you are a predominant Sensor or Intuition since you seem to have both in you. My guess is that you would be primarily a Thinker, and your Feeling (extraverted) would be undeveloped. : -Cory : : and something Amanda wrote caught my eye: : : "As I was reading through your post a thought occurred to me.... : : I wonder if some of the things that 4's need to overcome are handled more easily by 4's of the extroverted persuasion?" : : "It seems to me that this would be a much easier task for an extrovert [Creating an identity] than for most introverts - keeping in mind that most 4's are introverts." : : --------------------------------------------------- : : Well, considering it's an social world for extraverts, where introverts are always given the backseat, it sure is. : : I'm an introvert myself. (ISTJ or INTJ) Or an SFUE. ("ES-FEW" = Seriously Fucked Up Extravert) Whichevery way, I tend to be inhibited at least in some social situations. Those involving my Feeling side. Y'know, the general social interaction where you bond with others, interact, share warmth and feelings and all that mushy stuff. : : You know, I hate to interact with unselfaware people who have strong Extraverted Feeling. Maybe it's that they'd drink gasoline, if only they'd "feel strongly it's the right thing to do." Or think that if they feel strongly about something, they are right and those who don't feel are wrong. Sort of hard to relate. However, those people seem to be the "salt of the earth" and "lives of the parties" and what else. You, the introvert, are just the "weird guy." Ha ha. So you feel like getting to know new people? Ha ha. So you spend time in a group of people you don't know, "Brainstorming" or whatchama call it (sounds more like people saying obvious stuff aloud, if ya ask me) and you finally say what you have to say, and others look at you like this: O-o, don't understand what you are saying in the first place and then just continue to the next topic. So in time you learn to shut up and only act/speak up when the other people are about to mess things up too badly. : : So, yes, building a social social identity might be just a tad easier for the extraverted people. And, quite frankly, I don't believe that crap about "all preferences are good" and so on. Sounds like someone trying to make everyone feel *good* about themselves, forgetting about such trivialities as facts and reality. Being extrovert = lucky, being introvert = unlucky. : : : : Mikko
