I suggest that you check out some posts from different forum NFs (pretty sure you can discern even when their types are not listed in TIM) and see which ones you feel you relate to best. I kind of had instant recognition of my quadra while reading Beta subforum vs Delta when I first joined. Check the Delta and Beta subforums and see what resonates.
Edit: Keep in mind that IEE is the type more likely to confuse themselves for a Beta, than the other Deltas, since they can easily fit into a Beta environment and go with the flow. I am not trying to add more confusion but I think looking into Ni and Ne might also be very helpful. I mean really look into them and not just use the short definitions on socionics sites. Use Jung and whatever links @Person gives you. Some people dismiss quadra values but I think they can be helpful in narrowing things down.

“My typology is . . . not in any sense to stick labels on people at first sight. It is not a physiognomy and not an anthropological system, but a critical psychology dealing with the organization and delimitation of psychic processes that can be shown to be typical.” —C.G. Jung
Hmmm... I wouldn't say that I don't dwell on negative emotions. Quite the contrary - I sometimes like to relive negative events in my life. These make me the person I am, so why should I avoid them. I feel like ignoring them is kind of a weak thing to do. However, if I have any negative emotions, I deal with them in private and dislike it when others do it in public. It's a question of pride more than anything.
There is no greater value or vision to my life, which I consider pointless anyways. I live for myself and since I'm alive for a limited amount of time, I want to make most of this time.
oh stop it you
aww you actually read it! thank you, I didn't think anyone would do that.
But entertainment and pleasure are such fleeting, simple things. I cannot find any value in these. Friends and family matter at this very moment, but I mean, after you die, nothing matters anymore, right? Soon the friends and family of yours will also die and everyone forgets about you, unless you did something very substantial for the humanity. Even then, no one will reminisce, who you were as a person, but rather you will be remembered by your achievements.
You may not believe in tests, but I believe they are likely to be more reliable than VI and less time-consuming than questionnaires.

Typing by photos is just not serious. With videointerview it strongly depends on tests and who types. Also videos have not only visual info.
Questionnaires are useful as additional info to video, but better ones than typically are used here. Some questionnaires also may be useful to record videos.
