: : :Why NF? Artistic and poetic talent doesn't automatically make you an intuitive feeler. Its basically how you use the talent, if you become the talent and if you think artistically and poetically so to speak.

: She sounds like a hard Artisan to me but hiding a phobic side. Thinking about it, she may be ISFP or possibly ISFJ rather than the ISTP that I thought, but I saw no examples of N thinking or behavior on her part.

: Hi, I am an INFP (4w5) and I have a sister-in-law that I cannot figure out what her type is. She is very quiet at family gatherings and never seems to warm up to poeple even though I have known her for ten years. She has poetic and artistic skills. She started out in fashion design for a career then switched to youth ministry.

: : : She does not laugh a lot and she usually is very serious. It is like she does not believe anyone takes her seriously. She usually does not tell family members her plans until they are well into action....(she got engaged to her boyfriend before her mom even knew she was dating him) She has friends but they are work related friends.
: : : She seems warmer with them than with her own mother.

: : : I think her mom is an ESFJ. Their relationship is sort of disconnected. The mother often is sad because of the lack of communication or appreciation from her.

: : : She had several problems with eating....I am not sure to what extent except to say that she was not digesting things all that well. Seemed to be caused by stress. She's thin and has been thinner but I am not sure about anorexia. She the youngest of three children.

: : : I have thought she might be a four (INFP) but since I am one myself it is hard to tell another one. I will admit that it took a long time for me to get to know my in-laws but after awhile my wall crumbles and I feel more comfortable and can joke around and feel normal around them. Could she possibly be an unhealthy version?

: : : I'd really like some input because if I could figure her type out I could better know how to treat her and make her feel more comfortable. I know for sure that she is an (I) and (P). Not sure of S or N and T or F). Rest of the family seems to be sensors....ESFJ, ISTJ, ISFJ, and ISTP
