VI me

[bibliophile8]

I'm skeptical of the whole VI thing, but I'm curious, so give me a shot.

[Mea]

ISTj?

[strrrng]

def. Ti base...probably INTj.

[Exodus]

Whoa, Gilligan. I think Ti ego is a good starting point. I would guess Alpha NT. The expression in the last one reminds me somewhat of myself.

[Suomea]

Alpha NT is my guess. Leaning towards ENTp....: )

[ScarlettLux]

Lsi

[bibliophile8]

When I first started into Socionics, I thought I was INTj. This may have been partially influenced by my earlier experience with MBTI. Then, after reading lots of wiki articles, I started to think I wasn't an intuitive type and I identify well with beta. But I like alpha, too. Whichever I am, I bet that I am Ti subtype since my creative function seems so weak.

Ideas?

[Ezra]

From that post alone, I see no Se at all. Why are people saying LSI?

[Ezra]

You've gotta be Ti ego. IxTj (or maybe ENTp).

In essence, you're implying that he's an Alpha NT, but you're retaining the possibility of LSI.

Could someone explain to me where the Se is?

[Ezra]

Identity?

[bibliophile8]

Identity?

I'm confused. You guys lost me.

-I'm obsessed with understanding myself and how I work.

Is that what you're referring to?

[bibliophile8]

Oh and I seriously doubt that I'm ENTp. I don't see how that is possible. I don't feel ENTp at all. Thanks for the compliment on my writing, though.

[Kristiina]

You look to me. You seem to have some similarities with my INFj and my ENTp brothers (depends on the picture). And you look pretty intense but not really , so I think more extroverted than introverted maybe (but might depend on the selection of pictures). I also see something similar to Gilly, but his type is unknown. Overall I'd say ENTp, but I wouldn't be surprised if you were any other type.

[bibliophile8]

Don't know if you've read these, but will post for reference anyway.

INTj: http://wikisocion.org/en/index.php?t...itive_Introtim

ISTj: http://wikisocion.org/en/index.php?t...nsing_Introtim

Thanks. I've read these about a million times. I don't know. It seems like I can interpret myself either way, though neither fit(s) perfectly, of course. I'll post more thoughts on that later.

If it matters, I only knew I was being photographed in the last picture.

[bibliophile8]

Okay, now I'm starting to think that I actually am LII.

Reasons I'm not a sensor:
1. I have very little inclination for sports. I played some in high school, but only because my parents forced me to. I hated most of it.
2. I've just realized that I'm not very good at keeping track of physical things. I carry pens through the house, arrive at my destination without it and wonder what I did with it.
3. My brother (I think he's SLE) had an argument with my mom last night. He was yelling and making a scene out of it and all I could do was hope he didn't include me.
4. My initiative sucks.

Also, I somehow missed the wiki on Ne functions and its polr characteristics. I don't think it really bothers me if people talk about ability. I'm not sure if I am a good judge overall, but I don't mind if people discuss my ability, unless its obviously negative or hurtful. I do think the Se polr characteristics apply more to me.

[Ezra]

anyway, i think ENTP~ESFJ>ISTJ>INTJ

That makes no sense, dee.

It should look more like this:

ILE~LII > ESE > LSI.

But even then, where do you see the Fe?

[bibliophile8]

That makes no sense, dee.

I was thinking the same thing.

[Ezra]

Well, I guess that only an LII could work out what made sense in this forum and what didn't after 67 posts.

[bibliophile8]

Well, I guess that only an LII could work out what made sense in this forum and what didn't after 67 posts.

Thanks. I've read a LOT of Wikisocion.

[Gilly]

I see some James Franco in the second picture, which makes me think of Fabio, both of which make me think EP. His smile in the third one is a bit like mine, but also a bit like an EIE guy I know. The top picture looks more ILE. Alpha or Beta, at least.

[bibliophile8]

don worry, it comes with experience

Please elaborate. Not the experience part, the fact that there is Fe part.

[Gilly]

I'd like to see some explanation for the experience part, too. Dee's only been here a few months.

[bibliophile8]

So you just think I'm more Fe than Fi. That can only rule out gamma and delta. How does that just translate into ESE? What about T>F?

[bibliophile8]

Okay, dee, now you've got me thinking. I suppose maybe I could be ESFj, with some serious, private, dual-seeking going on. I don't know. Whenever I take one of those profiling tests, I feel like I'm following a stereotype more than I'm revealing my own self. I feel lost. First, I thought I was INTj, then I went through a painful episode of thinking I was ISTj, now I think I might have to change again. I just want to know. Sorry, this was more of a rant than anything else and not really directed at you, dee. I have noticed that my writing online tends to be more Fe than I would expect. It sort of comes without me trying.

Reading back over that, I do sound very ESE, don't I? Seeking an LII to provide me with ideology to direct my life and activities. Ugh.

If I am EJ, I am certainly one of the quietest and probably loneliest.

This post was hard to write.

[bibliophile8]

Or maybe I could be ILE. It's strange to think of myself as an ekstravert...

[bibliophile8]

Thank you for your kind vote of confidence, Carla. I really appreciate it.

why don't you try the last test i posted, just be honest.

I did, being as honest with myself as possible. No pretending. Here are my results:

Alpha 12
Beta 7
Gamma 7
Delta 5

SF 7
ST 7
NF 6
NT 10

[bibliophile8]

Okay, LSI.

[Exodus]

I don't see any problems with INTj. Why ISTj?

[bibliophile8]

I was thinking about how INTjs and ISTjs understand systems. INTjs don't need to see or experience the whole system to figure it out, whereas ISTjs, apparently, need to. I think I identify more with the latter than the former.

ISTjs are supposed to make calculated assumptions, but isn't Ne a sort of calculated assumption in itself? That difference confuses me.

[Joy]

I'd say INxx, from VI. You also remind me of Jonathan Ahdout.

[bibliophile8]

what, did you get LSI with the newer version? how new was the version? my files keep being updated all the time, but i don't have a way to see how accurate the results are, so i keep changing all the time just to see if i arrive at the algorithm that will output the results that really really make sense or something. check out the newest version, and don;t loose your old data.

I got ISTj once and ESTp another time. I don't think I've tried your very latest test. btw, rmcnew's test gave me ISTj, then INTj, but I think it's still under construction.

I'm going to post some self-revelatory rant/thoughts on life soon. My semester at college just started so I'm a lot busier than I was before.

Also, I loved Ayn Rand's The Fountainhead. Some say that's almost a sure sign of beta-ness.
