ENFps (and Delta Quadra overall) having the mentality of 60 at 14

[kensi]

Do other ENFPs have felt a lot older despite being young? Your body says 14, 21, 25 but your mind and wisdom says 70, 80, 90?

I have a silly side where I tend to indulge in ironic humor, but when that is not in my daily moods I can go towards a wisdom of of a '90 year old.'

I have always ben told (since I was 14) that I act way too mature (like a wise old man) constaly giving advise, warning others of future phenomena and psychoanalyzing them.

Have any others ENFps (or NFs in general) experience this?

I can relate most definitely...sometimes i think that i dont really come alive until i'm 40 lol ...n' thats scary....but i have moments when my silly switch operates and it doesn't really matter lol

There are certain characteristics that I associate with old people.

1. Saving Money
2. Voting in every election
3. Driving Slow
4. Responsibility
5. Practicality
6. Rising before dawn

None of these I associate with IEE.

1. Saving Money - I save, I probably have more savings than you.
2. Voting in every election. - I do.
3. Driving Slow. - I do.
4. Responsibility. - I am.
5. Practicality - Not that much but I try.

I've usually been able to relate to older people better, especially through school. I've always felt older than my peers. So yeah, I can relate to this.

My friends differ in age more than "normal", I guess, ranging from half my age to double my age. I don't feel age barriers the way some others seem to feel them. It's that timeless feeling I mentioned.

My husband is younger than I, but people tend to think I'm the younger one. They tell me I look and act younger than my age. I don't think anyone would see me as older than I am.

I feel totally non-Delta after reading about all of your old-people feelings... Can you please convince me it's normal for an IEE to feel young, before I turn ILE on you again...

i think you need to take a closer look at ILE. my thoughts...

Maybe, ah?

Is this a conspiracy? Are you pushing me out of your quadra???

haha, don't be silly.

[dbmmama]

Are you ILE, now...?

you're asking because we've thought we're the same type, huh?

the only and main difference i see is that you're a little more Fe than me, a little "nicer." but that may just be a perception from online where we may be more alike irl. hard to tell unless we met irl.

I can relate to having more people who are older then yourself then others.

Most of my friends are all older then I am and I can have interesting conversations with people of different age brackets.

I can be child-like and playful with kids and teens, but can also be very serious and sage like when speaking to friends who are in their 30's, 40's and even 50 something.

[dbmmama]

I also asked because I was curious if you've found your type?

I actually like using Fe for fun, so you are right about your perception. I find you a little more Se than me, so we might be different types. I'm not at all sure we're the same type. My theory is that we share a common background where we were "forced" to take on other personalities by our surroundings. At least I see a lot of you in me when it comes to the way you described your relations to your family. I also had to "change personalities" and be "tougher" to cope with my family environment. I think maybe that is the thing that makes us similar. We may or may not be the same socionic type.

yes, those are things i see as well.
