Sometimes I wonder the same thing myself Jessica.
Edit: It seems sometimes I can be very INTp, or more ISTp...
Maybe you're more in the middle?
I do currently think you're ISTp. But not for any reason in particular. It's sort of a place holder I guess. It's in your sig, and it makes sense so far... hmm.
If you didn't hate your bickering cow workers I'd say you were an ESTP
I almost thought ESTP myself but don't they like people? I think that rules that out. I don't know, I think it might be a mix of intp/istp leaning more towards istp. I just dont know how i come off to others and thought maybe that would help me...
No, I can relate to you pretty well
I just think we're more willing to talk and think than "typical" istp's. ("typical"? sounds like we have a buncha different shades)
True. I think had most of you met me in real life, it'd rule out the ESTP thought automatically...argh, why are there only 16 types? I don't know if i buy this stuff anymore.
Just think of what you prefer, that's how I keep it in perspective. Take "people" for instance.
While I can be very good at chatting someone up, I can be very good at keeping good relations with people I don't particularly care about and I can sell something I'm really interested it, but do I PREFER to do all that stuff??
Hell no! I'd rather spend most of my time working with things by myself, or in the case of boxing/capoeira/any other martial art, working alongside someone but not really talking. I just think types represent something you prefer, not whether you can act that way (ie, Extrovert) or not.
Edit: You can all lynch me now.
Yeah, I think I really am ISTP but something about it just isn't fitting for some reason anymore but yet I can't identify with any other profile as much. I need more information on the E vs I topic I think.
if you are ixtp you are ISTp, no question for me. I might consider ExTj.. have you?
EDIT: i really just think you're ISTp though.
I seem to recall that the only reason you have dubbed yourself SLI was because you came out as an ISTP in MBTT, and felt you had no reason to doubt this.
No, it's true i have tested multiple times as ISTP thru mbti but i've read the socionics descriptions and that was also how i came to that conclusion. I've tested INTP thru socionics but something doesn't feel right with that. I've never thought of myself as an E*TJ of any sort...wouldn't mind it, life would be much easier ; )Originally Posted by Ezra
I think I remember what you look like... You don't look one bit like an INTp! When was the last time you realized you haven't plucked your eyebrows for a month and then thought, "ah, I'll do it later.".

Anyway!! I came to the same conclusion by the same methods Jessica. Read lots of other profiles, and the one that consistantly fits me best is "ISTp"
You say you're 7w6...how sure of that are you? 7s are usually EPs of some kind; it could be some clue if you're more sure about either Enneagram or Socionics.
i tend to think ISTp fits better than INTp. i also don't really see ESTp at all. you seem very non-EP. i'd also agree with what kristiina posted.
where do your doubts lie with the profiles?

The only reason I thought E over I is because i'm very active and generally prefer to be in the company of others...to be up and about doing anything and everything but yet i'm not very social and frankly don't really like dealing with people that much but i prefer that over being alone..if that makes sense. You have to understand, i'm sure this comes off as me appearing 'dumb', but that's because I don't know much about socionics..frankly i dont have the patience to sift thru all the information. I'm basically thinking extraverts prefer a more active lifestyle and introverts prefer to be alone...i take it that assumption is wrong? I can't organize my thoughts right now...maybe i'll go into detail later.
and oh yeah, if it matters, i trim the eyebrows everyday. I'm obsessed. ha.
Well, yeah, I guess it's usually true that extroverts are more active, but I wouldn't say introverts necessarily like to spend time alone; more like they just don't go out of their way to plan activities or be "out-and-about."
As we already discussed, I think you're either INTp or ISTp, and I think you may well be INTp. I have seen signs of your preferring Ni-Se to Ne-Si. I don't think that your concern with your eyebrows is that significant.
However, it's not a strong opinion. I did vote for INTp though.

fwiw, i've had the same issue as you have, trying to decide between INTp and ISTp, even picking some f types and testing as f types in myers-briggs. i think you might be my identical sometimes what with how you talk about people and relationship issues. especially when you rant about office spread.

hahaha. I know one INTp who doesn't even pluck the hairs in the mole on her cheek. Can't be bothered by such trivial things. Although INTps can learn the value of hygiene and clothing style, this attitude is still very common among INTps.Originally Posted by jessica129

Ni or Si as a leading function, then. Jess, which do you think is more like you?
MBTT ISTP is a common type for 7s, by the way, Gilly.
Wouldn't those be the "ISTP"s who are actually SLEs?Originally Posted by Ezra

In this case, the ISTP of this description is neither like the LSI or the SLI.Originally Posted by Expat
Just a comment -- the LSI is the "supposed socionical counterpart" to the ISTP only for those who go for the J/P switch.Originally Posted by Ezra

I was taking a shower and the water spoke to me. It said you might be 7w6 ENTp (or ENFp-Ne).Originally Posted by jessica129
Can you force yourself to concentrate enough to read this description of what it is like to be an extroverted intuitive type: http://www.socionics.us/theory/bi.shtml
The symbols may be a turn off but the symbol which is used most of the time () means extroverted intuition. You can dismiss the other symbols.
I've never heard ENTP before. Never even considered it and definetely haven't thought ENFP. Those descriptions don't fit me much at all. I think i really am just an ISTP
So, Jessica, if you are an SLI, the following descriptions should fit you almost if not perfectly.

Have a look at SEI as well. Are you sure that you have Te as a second function, for example? Perhaps it's Fe.
That doesn't really fit
I have thought ISFP also.
ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
SEI sounds like it should fit?
Don't deny it.Originally Posted by jessica129

I could see ISTp or ISFp too. Im a bit suspicious about the INTp though...Originally Posted by jessica129
ISFp? Ridiculous.

@ezra - not all IXTps are that dry. i don't know how dry she has to possibly be to still be ISTp. like brick wall dry?

UDP dry. Expat dry. Phaedrus dry. imfd95 dry. That is what I call dry.
UDP and expat are also rational. since phaedrus and imfd95 are in debate, i won't speak for them. but i think that rationality and thinking makes for a dryer conversation style at times. take logos, for example.Originally Posted by Ezra
lokivanguard, imo, doesn't sound "dry" either, yet he's ISTp.

I agree. Not all, and not all the time.Originally Posted by implied
@jessica: you might just be logical subtype - ISTp. And again, how certain are you of your enneagram type? 7w6 doesn't seem to be what most ISTp will identify with. (even though neither would be 4w5, which is the type I identify the most with)
