Recently, I took the MBTI test with my friend for fun. We sent our result to another, and essentially read each others and copied and pasted certain points that we thought really matched our personality. My results says that I’m an ENFP-T, whatever that means. Here are some that my friend thought aligned with me:
- “Even in moments of fun, Campaigners want to connect emotionally with others. Few things matter more to these personality types than having genuine, heartfelt conversations with the people they cherish.”
-
This resonates deeply with me. I’ve often found that even in the most enjoyable and carefree moments, what truly matters to me is the emotional connection with those around me. Genuine, heart-to-heart conversations are like fuel to my spirit, fostering a sense of intimacy and understanding that goes beyond the surface level of interactions.
-
- “Campaigners’ intuition may lead them to read far too much into other people’s actions and behaviors.”
-
Sometimes I catch myself overanalyzing the actions and behaviors of those around me. It’s not that I’m trying to be overly perceptive, but my natural inclination to understand people at a deeper level can sometimes lead me to read between the lines more than necessary. Hence, I sometimes also worry if I may have said something that may have negatively affected someone, especially on a day when I’m overly talkative (talking a lot more before thinking).
-
- “As friends, Campaigners (ENFPs) are cheerful and supportive. They’re nearly always up for a little lighthearted banter – or a deep, heartfelt, emotional discussion about anything and everything.”
-
I cherish the lighthearted banter that brings joy and laughter, but I equally value the profound discussions that delve into the intricacies of life. Being both cheerful and supportive, I try my best to create dynamics where my friends feel comfortable expressing themselves in any way they choose. For that reason, I also enjoy talking about the most random things within conversations.
-
- “Attracted to depth and nuance, people with this personality type find it gratifying to watch someone gradually open up and reveal their innermost thoughts and feelings. And with their unique combination of sensitivity and enthusiasm, Campaigners can help quieter friends feel understood and accepted – and not a little exhilarated.”
-
I really enjoy creating an environment where quieter friends feel understood and accepted. It’s not just about acceptance; it’s about fostering an atmosphere that can be exhilarating for everyone involved. I also used to be the quiet one within group settings, and I always wished there were more people that can slowly help me feel a sense of belonging and comfortability, so doing that for others now does make me feel a like I’ve achieved something.
-
I would say most of the points my friend sent me were pretty accurate on how I see myself. I’m also a little surprised that I got E for being an extrovert. I definitely am the talkative type, but that’s only when I’m with close friends and people I’m comfortable with. However, at the same time — when I’m with those people, I can very much talk a little too much, and I can see myself being the one that carries conversations. Not that extrovert fully means being the outgoing one, but it’s just a little interesting that I got that.
