ENTps and Alter-Egos

[Gilly]

ENTps are like super heroes: we all have alter egos. Joy's is the bubbly ESFj, mine is the reactive and sociable ENFp, Mcnew's is the pensive INFp...we take on these alternate personalities in order to ensure that nobody every figures out what the cult of ENTp is really up to.

pfft ESFj is not my alter ego

notice I didn't deny having one or argue against this theory... I don't think it's so we can be powerful though. it's so we can be certain not to be understand by those who we don't want understanding us

I would say ESTp is mine. Mostly from hanging around my ESTp friend. I like how aggressive, and take charge he can be in social situations while mixing it up with wit. I try to emulate his behavior and mix it into my personality, so it seems I'm doing something different. The only problem is it gets taxing competing for attention sometimes when him and I are hanging at a party. However, it sometimes flip flops. Sometimes I find a way to be at the center of attention, and he stands to the side being a supplement. Other times it is him at the center, and I'm supplementing. He can go a bit out of control sometimes though with the attention seeking. I think its strong with going nuts.

Actually, ENFj and INFp ... it has alot to do with the fact that I am not entirely sure of being an ethical or logical type, but I express more activelly than I express so I do not think I could be ENFp...

Essentially, I am saying that I am having conflict between using and functions.

I don't think I do this. Maybe when I was younger I did . . . not sure like who though, because when I look back on it, all I can see is entp.

this is a joke thread

[Polly_G]

When I'm angry I'll act like an ENTJ to get my own way. But I save that for the most dire crises.

I think I can appear really similar to an INTP and an ENFP.

i want an alter ego to hide in

[schrödinger's cat]

Wait, didn't you say ENTPs don't really exist? That would explain it all. Your alter egos are to your ENTPishness what Clark Kent is to Superman. "What, me? Super powers? Sheesh, no. See me dance around and hug trees? I'm an ENFP, me. Yep. Good old Delta."

[Gilly]

Exactamente.

[schrödinger's cat]

Ah, you're the Cuban ENFP, I remember.
