    Default Another trying to figure out a person question

    Hi any help given is greatly appreciated!!!!

    I need some help trying to find the type of a person. I'll describe some of her behaviour.

    She has a habit of fishing for compliments, she'll say something bad about herself which is untrue in the hope of getting the other person to pay her a compliment. She enjoys social occassions and is well liked by many people. She enjoys keeping trim. She had an on again off again relationship in her previous relationship and looks for someone who can take care of her (perhaps security seeking but i'm not too sure). In light of this she is not a 'burn the bra' femminist. She is always well dressed and has an eye for fashion, she would never wear something that was out of date. She enjoys the material things in life. She would be the type to worry about having 'nothing to wear' before a party. She was at uni but dropped out now she's doing a marketing diploma which makes sense as she is good with people and is generally a warm person to be around.

    ENFP -- Usually fish for compliments
    ESFP -- This bell was rung as I read your description.
    ESFJ -- Needs compliments

    What strikes me is the "looking for someone to take care of her" bit. This is almost an ISFP thing.

    In conclusion, ESFP.
    thing.

    could it be ESFJ or ESFP. Is there anyway to know shes not a N?

    I don't know why he said "N", but she sounds like an ESFJ.
    MAYBE I'LL BREAK DOWN!!!

    Sounds like ISFp or ESFj to me. I say this from personal experience. ISFp's have a concern about their appearance, and i have noticed the "fishing for compliments" to be very creative and almost imperceptible in certain levels.

    for example, i knew an ISFp which would fish for compliments by talking about celebrities she slightly resembled by asking me is I found them attractive. I would always go "no, not really" just cause i thought it was funny.

    ESFJ seems to be the general consensus. Although this is a semi-dual relationship could it work out? ENSJs are very rare relative to ISTJs (dual relationship).
