    Default unsure of my type.

    So I'm back, after a bit of a hiatus. I decided to re-look over my socionics type because it just doesn't seem to fit me anymore. Instead of telling everyone what I used to be and what I think I am now. I just wanted to see if anyone would give me input to see if I was on the right track.

    I'll put up a couple of pictures for VI. I'm not sure what info to post, so for now we'll see how things go. THANKS!!!!

    Delta something. You definitely look valuing. Very calm. First thought is INFj. And the guy seems ENFp to me (could be ISFp). Sorry, I know I should be typing you, but his expression is very interesting. Or maybe he could be ENTp.

    ok. sorry, here it goes.

    I love to read and listen to music. I can be a super social person, but I get tired of being around people all the time. There are tons of people in my life, only a select few are close friends.

    Just recently I graduated from college and I have no idea what I'm going to do with the rest of my life. There are just too many things that sound so amazing to me that its hard to decide.

    When I meet people I try and find one positive thing about them, no matter what I've previously heard. Usually my friends call me "the mom" because I want everyone to be happy.

    Relationships can be hard for me because I try really hard to be perfect and I never think I'm good enough for the other person. Which eventually leads to my putting myself in a position where I'm going to be hurt.

    Does that help?...

    ENFp from the description, I'd say.

    i am sort of in between INFp and ENFp. So that sounds about right to me. Thank for your help. I always overthink these kinds of things.

    honestly, i think the description sounds ESFj, if you're choosing between INFp and ENFp I'd say INFp. If you are a p I would say you are judging subtype. i dont find that enfps want everyone happy or to be perfect. If J p sub.

    Doesn't everyone?

    Doesn't really tell us much, except perhaps that you are not Fe PoLR. No Fe PoLR has a myriad of friends.

    Just recently I graduated from college and I have no idea what I'm going to do with the rest of my life. There are just too many things that sound so amazing to me that its hard to decide.
    Depending on where this stems from could lead to a variety of possibilities. My interpretation is that it's Ne leading.

    When I meet people I try and find one positive thing about them, no matter what I've previously heard. Usually my friends call me "the mom" because I want everyone to be happy.

    Relationships can be hard for me because I try really hard to be perfect and I never think I'm good enough for the other person. Which eventually leads to my putting myself in a position where I'm going to be hurt.
    Strong in Fi and Fe.

    Thus far, I can't tell if you're Fi or Fe valuing. Someone else will have to go into Fi/Te or Fe/Ti with you; I'm not good enough at doing it quickly yet.

    If you are between INFp and ENFp (and didn't you think you were ESFj previously?), and you make an ESFj impression, I think INFp is unlikely.

    I couldn't decide between ENFp and INFp when I first showed up and didn't know a lot about the information elements. If you're stuck between those two, I'd guess you're more likely ENFp.

    It is still way too early to form a definite opinion on a specific type -- unless you know more than what is revealed in this thread. When shall you people learn not to jump to conclusions based on too little information? More information is certainly needed, if we want to avoid turning this into a guessing game or Socionics looking similar to astrology. But so far ethical type is very likely, and extraversion is likely.

    Thanks! Yeah, I know from my previous visits in the past, that its hard to just come out and pick a type. I appreciate all the help and I've been looking through a lot of the forum posts at INFp and ENFp types. At least in doing that I can come up with a better idea of what the types are like.

    Are you saying that you don't think ENFp's expect other people to be perfect? I just want clarification on your statment.

    Because making people feel comfortable is very much a part of how I approach things. I don't expect people to be perfect, and therefore having an accomodative attitude towards people is something I feel very strongly about.

    Yes, I was thinking similarly.
    Posts I wrote in the past contain less nuance.
    If you're in this forum to learn something, be careful. Lots of misplaced toxicity.

    In a totally subjective way, her second picture gives me a strong impression of a very kind person. Not sure exactly what is it I'm seeing (and not in pictures of other people).
