    I object on the grounds of ENTp attitude about authority.

    Do you see why I think an ISTp would pick B?

    Group B contains words relating to Te and Fi.

    Fi is ISTp's hidden agenda that ISTps strive for. Te is ISTps strong function.

    Can you see where I'm coming from?

    What do you think now?

    But that doesn't make much sense, because Group C sounds like Si and Ne, which are also Delta Values. I just realted to that one more...

    That would mean that you are ESTj, because ISTps don't easily identify themselves with Ne, as they do with Fi and Te.

    A or D.
    But, for a certainty, back then,
    We loved so many, yet hated so much,
    We hurt others and were hurt ourselves...

    Yet even then, we ran like the wind,
    Whilst our laughter echoed,
    Under cerulean skies...

    =\ Neither really. A makes me "feel" better when I read it, but parts of D appeal to me more than any one thing in A.

    Would it be correct to say that "A" mostly describes you, while "D" only partly describes you?

    Do you think I need to change the wording of the question?

    I read through several times, and am having a hard time deciding between A and C. I like A better, but C probably more accurately describes me. So, my answer is C.

    PS. D sounds awful, like something I would avoid at all costs!

    B

    I don't identify well with the aggressive nature of Se for D, which would have been ENTj according to this.

    Some a A and most C...

    Let me spell out the words in A I dont like: Concreteness, detail, detailed study, carefulness, strictness, place into the hierarchy, the laws, the decisions, the instructions, the selection of the best version.

    All words in C are ok, except: fantasticism

    A. I am an INFp. If you didn't say to forget my knowledge of socionics, I would have chosen D because I thought it contained a description of Ni. A actually seemed too Fe and Ti for an INFp so I was suprised by the results...

    I read the descriptions carefully and I am sure that C describes me the best. And what does "satte your type" mean by the way?

    Yes! The aspects that don't describe me certainly describe my values and aspirations.

    B
    Good relations, love, friendship, sympathy, attraction, heat of relations, sociability, close psychological distance, it is kind, pity. Benefit, benefit, efficiency, technology, facts, acquisition, accumulation, purchase, economy, the guidance of order, practicalness.
    No. These are things that I consider to be good things, but in reality I have little patience for them and are goals I can't really be bothered aiming for.

    C
    Pleasant sensations, comfort, convenience, accordion, beauty, attractiveness, leisure, health, weakening, a good health, pleasure, enjoyment, sensitivity. Prospect, possibility, positive potential, essence, essence, principles, new ideas, the advancement of hypotheses, theory, insight, interest, originality, unusualness, fantasticism, faith.
    No. I don't consider these to be bad things, but I never really consider them at all. However, I wouldn't mind "studying" people with these qualities (from behind glass).

    D
    The retention of authority, insubordination, protection, defense, retaliatory attack, counterattack, hardness, settling its interests, volitional pressure from bottom to top, the force of will, possession. Future, a change of the situation with time, prediction, foresight, gradual development, evolution, planned ascending, the dynamics of changes, temporary flow, imagination, consistency, imperceptible changes - step by step, convergence, convergence.
    No! It's far too agressive. Fascinating, but I don't want to stick around for too long.

    It works for me. i feel most comfortable when reading the words in C,
    the others stress me out for some reason.

    I dunno...A fits pretty well in general, but some parts of D are really right on.
