ahhh ic now, i guess my N just "completely!!!" overshadows my S, because im gullible as hell (5th level maybe??)

> Myself I think the combination of 5 and ENTP are impossible.

well, im certainly no 8, i spend too much time alone to be a 7...
i always want to know whats gonna happen beforehand, etc
i do have a fear of beaing overwhelmed, but its by the world in individual circumstances, but i dont obsess about it by reading alot, just at certain times, and i do have an (obvious) liking for systems that explain human behavior
i'd think an INFP 5 would be impossible, not an ENTP
and i do have the ability to tell what information i need when im missing it(ive read thats a five thing, but it doesnt seem like it just a logical thing)
