So I know a fair amount of you believe I strongly value Extraverted Feeling, and think I'm possibly ESFj, but my response is that I only use Fe jokingly, that it's learned from my childhood (only guy in the family, sisters and mom constantly scolding me for being mean and blunt, as well as going to a Christian school), so I come across as Feeling when that's not the case.
ANYWAY... I'm trying to rule it out, but thought 'use Fe jokingly' could possibly be ESFp (using it as an 8th function). I was reading on
personalitycafe.com and found this:
"In this instance, the way to discern between these two types (ESTp and ESFp) and to choose the correct one is to determine whether you activelly use more Fe or Fi. If you use Fe more than you use Fi, you are probably an ESTp. If you use Fi more than you use Fe, you could really be an ESFp."
WTF?
You use your 6th function more than you use your 4th function? I had learned before that your 7th and 8th functions were still very
strong, but I thought you still generally
used your first 4 function, well, first.
Does anyone know a chart or list, for which functions are more likely to be USED? If use is independent of strength. Moreover, isn't use correlated with strength? The more I use a function, the better I get at it?
And does function usage vary with each type? Ie., some types joke more often and use their 8th function more, or ISFjs try to make decisions logically, etc.
Thanks for reading.
P.S. Do you like my new avatar? Or should I go back to the sexy Mountain Dew bottle?
