Considering how you've irritated people over a forum has become foreign to me. You have an interest in personality theory and you're doing your best to apply it to your own self. So what? Isn't that good enough? For the most part, this is something people do out of boredom or because it's a little fun. Kill your boredom, churn your interest in your own way. Your self-typing isn't going to have any actual impact on the [mostly] strangers you meet online.
And I guess everyone has their own method for self-typing. It's probably not suited for everyone, but I found casting all that intricate theoretical stuff to the side and sticking with the basics and then trying to compare and contrast with the people I interact with on a concrete level. Because people's inner thoughts and private interests can be surprising compared to how they most naturally act and interact with the world around them.
I mean, it can be somewhat empowering to see yourself in an abstract model such as socionics, but it's even more empowering to let go of it and see yourself without so many limitations. Because, after all, while socionics can be a tool for self-discovery, I think it too often accomplishes the opposite. Even people who fall under the same type can be so different from one another. Slowly but surely, things fall into place. And I think having doubts can be pretty normal, too, especially if you're being your own person. So by lending concentration on other things, realizing natural strengths and weaknesses, I think it more easily comes together than just thinking black and white triangles, circles, and squares.
Lastly, it's not wrong to be wrong, especially if you're not too stubborn about it.
