The people at Socionix.com are helping me ... I'd encourage anyone to go there as well, if you're genuinely interested in finding your type.
Asking type questions in this forum has become like talking to a sphinx... No answers, only nonsensical riddles in return... It is frustrating these days.

ISFj??? I can see INFp, but I don't know about this ISFj idea.

JuJu, man, wake up! You ain't no fise.

You think INFp makes sense, WinterPark..? If you could elaborate at all, honestly, I would appreciate it.
Anyone... holla
Every type uses every function...
I don't think you are a logical type either. Nor a sensing, especially not Se, which you're clearly weak at.
For the most part, I agree with Rick about IEI. Based on your activity on this forum and my interaction with you I think IEE is also possible.

Whatever type Survivor's Jeff Probst is... Whatever the conflictor of that is = the best bet for my type.
You should come on stickam sometime and see if that reveals anything significant.

Just because a typing makes sense on paper in a post doesn't mean much to your overall life. People put forward arguments and half baked reasons for types all the time, except that it only takes one small part in and not the full picture of an individual.
But I really don't see where all this talk of Te and Fi (ISFj) comes from. I'd just stick with INFp JuJu and let everyone debate it if they wish. Can't see them giving you a better analysis than Rick on this one. I'm pretty sure Rick could spot his Supervisee. It's a cool type anyway.
Nooooooooooooooooooooooooow we're getting somewhere!
Hurley from Lost is my conflictor, and I don't have a problem with him on the show. I think people tend to have something of a "distant respect" for their conflictor. If they're actually interacting over a period of time, misunderstandings and miscommunications and issues with differences in values are sure to abound, but it's not like an instant "I can't stand that person".
It's fucking Jack from Lost that I can't stand, and he's my comparative. My comparatives are the people I usually have a problem with pretty quickly (or at least more often than any other type), and my look a likes are the people that (more often than any other type) have a problem with me pretty quickly.
Ne PoLR types can frustrate me a bit sometimes, but I generally like, respect, and get along with them well, overall.
ILI's can annoy me sometimes if they're too negative, skeptical, and critical. It's like, "I don't need you to tell me that. I can see it for myself, and I have already considered the matter and its implications. Quit trying to correct me about shit I already know." This hasn't happened much though. Usually I get along extremely well with ILI's.
SLI's can frustrate me if we're trying to accomplish something together because it's impossible to get them to DO shit in a timely manner. We get along pretty well if we're just talking though.
Aside from LSE's, if there's ever been a type I've "looked down on" in any way, it was:
- a few SLE's over the years who were being unkind to an "underdog" or someone weak
- EIE's who were trying too hard to gain social power/status or who cared what others think too much, or who disregarded Fi too much
- Ne PoLR types as described above (but like I said, their redeeming qualities almost always make up for it)
Okay, getting way off topic here... The fact that you've identified someone who has traits that very much rub you the wrong way could be a good clue about your type. Let's take a look at Jeff Probst. From the couple of youtube videos I watched of him, I'd say he's EIE > LSE.
(lmao at "stimulating" reality!)
So anyways, what exactly is it that you don't like about him? What traits bother you the most?
"stop" (you know who you are)
...to no one who has posted in this thread...
thanks everyone for your help... cyclops, joy, everyone
