Am I the only one? What do you guys know about them? Anyone have any opinions on them?
I used to think I was a special INTP but after doing more research on MBTI, I have to conclude I'm an ISTJ.
I think there are plenty of ISTJs here. It's just just a lot of tests are inaccurate. They tend to veer towards some types than others. Anyone who's slightly imaginative is an N and anyone who gets the feels is an F. There's also the conception around here that some types are more special than others, so everyone thinks they're special for being a mysterious intelligent INFJ but when you get to know them they're obviously not that type.

I am an ISTJ, in highschool I was on the math team, debate team, swim team. I tried theatre for a season, but thespians are insufferable histrionic sjws. I'm not weak nor am I super strong. Never had a girlfriend because I've never tried to get one, I am not ugly, so if I did try I'd probably succeed, but then what? I am very antisocial so even if I was gainfully employed I would be unable to provide her with the social status she'd inevitably crave.
Im istj but im also schizoaffective so idk if that fucks with it
Im pretty lonely and cant talk to people without feeling exhuasted after
I dont see many other istj but its supposed to be one of the more popular types.
ISTP > ISFP > ISFJ > ISTJ
(from most to least pleasant to be around)

Shit are you guys me?
>>29003462
Eh, I can talk to people i know about whatever, but I haven't really bothered to form many meaningful connections. I don't like most people and I'm disgusted by most peoples' tastes in clothes,music etc.
>ywn have a qt ISFJ gf
why live
>tfw ISTJ
I'm okay with it
>>29003386
ISTP reporting.
A lot of peeps say I'm spontaneous. I'm just faking it to fit in.
>>29002993
As an ISTJ I would say my greatest advantage is my heightened resistance to feels. Do any of you other ISTJ's have an emotional resilience you think stems from being an ISTJ? What other types can weather the feels?
>>29005438
ISTPs and INTJs are essentially feel-free
>>29003386
ISTP are the most pleasant people to be around out of all 16 of the personalities.
>>29005495
>>29005130
Another ISTP here, pretty much this.
Feels good not to feel.
>>29005438
>INFJ
I can have absolutely no feels when being around people if I don't appreciate them. Dehumanizing and not taking them serious is done so easily. Yet when I turn around, the feels start to make me want to throw myself off a cliff. Both when I hurt people and when people hurt me.
>>29006585
>I can have absolutely no feels when being around people if I don't appreciate them
If you're really INFJ, they still affect you.
>>29002993
The only official MBTI I've taken gave me istj but it's the only time I've ever gotten it as a type
>>29006612
No, interacting uses so much of my attention that i can't concentrate on the feels anymore. Keep analyzing too much. Biologically it makes perfect sense that people think differently at distinct moments.
>>29006766
You're not striking to me as INFJ then.
I'd really want to see your results on keys2cognition test.
>>29006585
Your feels sound like some sort of vicious ambush predator that lulls you into a false sense of security then you take one careless misstep and WHAM your ensnared in the maw of the feel beast. Is this accurate?
>>29006766
Oh, I'd like to add; I'm scared as fck for critic and am in general too oversensitive. I interpret everything negatively. Blocking out other people is easier.

>>29006805

Haha, yeah that was pretty much what I meant saying in 809.
>29006788
You try to conclude on one single part of my life. Within groups, people are different and complex too. Besides that, INFJ are normal human beings too
>>29006848
It's extremely difficult 4 me to care about anything, especially people, but I have no desire to hurt them or take advantage of them. I have a feeling that most people I meet don't like me but I've never been bullied, either physically or mentally so I have absolutely no clue what to think.
>>29006915
Sure it's complex. Usually people use similar but not different functions as in INFJ case you could adapt ENFP ways but not ESTP ones.
>>29003124
how do you figure it out?
if tests are innacurate I mean
>>29006875
>>29006848
I've never known one but I always thought they seemed like they would be pretty bro tier.
>>29006848
>Redpill me on ISTPs boys
People who are survivalists. They react best in intense situations but die in regular ones. In love life they prefer people who they regularly see - classmates, workmates or favorite coffee baristas. They more they avoid certain people the more they like them. Some of them are adrenaline junkies while others tries to hide it. ISTP's would make perfect warriors but because current era is PC one, they feel bad for not able to express themselves.
>>29006848
>>29006958
>I have a feeling that most people I meet don't like me
It's funny because it is actually the complete opposite, people tend to like me and tell me that I am a good person and I can't think of a single person that would hate me.
But I still think that people don't like me.
>>29003386
>>29006092
more like ISFP > the rest desu.
ISFPs are universally like because they're so laid back and genuinely nice
>>29006982
Just read up on the Jungian functions and figure out how they apply to you.
>tfw ENFJ
I didn't ask for this.
>>29007209
It's alright. ENFJ is basically teacher type.
161 IQ INTP reporting in.
Can't help but feel like everyone that told me i'm wasting my potential was right...
INFJ reporting in. I took the test multiple times. Not in one sitting, no, but every now and then within a couple years.
I have no idea what this means. I reject taking seriously the 'life advice' offered at the results page. I do think it's cool that I'm put aside Martin Luther King and Gandhi but then again where the fuck did they get that from.
For what I do, I draw mostly. I really try to obsess over it. I want to see myself get swamped in drawing and forget my life. That's my biggest flaw but I won't even try to change that.
>>29007126
I don't really get it, the way they're explained is too general and abstract
Maybe I'm just retarded

I have no problems understanding theory generally speaking, but the way functions are described seems out of touch for something that's supposed to apply to people

>>29007103
>be ISFP
>always get ignored in these threads
not expecting any different this time/
I think introverted sensing is hard type to live with. I never fit in with the nerds or the normies so i spent much of my youth alone.
>>29007751
There you go.
If you're INFP then escapism comes naturally for you (as in your case drawing) while INFJ cares more for social problems than individualistic ones.
>>29006259
i get that feel istp freindo
>>29007799
Do you know more about why that is? Is it because we are just as aware as our infj (if they could be treated as a counterpart at all) but without the motivation to tackle what we see?
>>29008089
It comes off from that INFP are more interested in their own feelings (introverted feeling) while INFJ are more interested in society (extroverted feeling).
What are my fellow ISTPs doing? My etizolam arrived so I'm just feeling chill sitting in my room listening to ferris wheel on fire by NMH
cooooz
>>29008165
Wow your description is spot on. I was deterred by pic related but I guess it is me.
>>29008249
originalissimo belissimo delicioso!
>>29008264
I feel bad for you (INFP) because it's hard to live as one.
>>29008239
What's up familia?
I'm getting comfy with coffee and doritos and browsing /tg/ right now.
>>29008306
And how would you know that. Are you one? If so, tell me about it. If not, tell me anyways why you think its bad.
>>29008347
They can adapt to other people but it comes with toll - individuality. They are usually seen as weak men or weirdos because they treasure their own feeling as in comparison with shared experience. INFP's are usually people who look bland in first meeting but the more you talk with them the more you understand their depth. They usually cannot overcome their inner moral compass, which makes them stagnant but so trustworthy.
>>29008439
Interesting. I do know what you are talking about when you mentioned compromising individuality, as that is exactly what I noticed happening in myself around when I hit the age of 10. Just myself picking up mannerisms that weren't my own, and wondering why I took them and used them.
My adolescence was then composed of two different states of mind: Mindless fun with my hoodlum friends and learning how to be a hoodlum, and then desperately pursuing originality. And the one true originality to myself was me when I was a child, before any of this shit happened.
That led to my depression. I smoked a lot of weed, thought too much, developed a lot of anxiety that still ruins my stomach.
I wish I could say I 'conquered' it but I just stopped thinking about it. It doesn't concern me anymore. Only drawing. Drawing everyday, thinking nothing but. The chart you posted before is very accurate in that I want to do nothing but draw and then earn validation as someone who gave his life to a craft.
>>29007402
can you link that test, anon?
>>29008439
oh and thank you for the insight.
>>29008568
>>29008670
No problem anon. However the most difficult thing for INFP is to find a partner who would tolerate your behavior. What i mean is that he/she would push you into being other person as you want to be authentic to yourself (like she wants you to be more masculine while you thing being more masculine would mean to disown your own personality).
>be ISTP
>nervous wreck when expected to conversate or be social
>meanwhile never get nervous or anxious for actual, substantial events like tests and interviews
>>29002993
Every time I take that test I get a different result, even when I try to be honest with myself
>>29008894
Completely the opposite for me.
>>29008927
What type are you and how? You have no idea how many awkward hugs and handshakes I've had.
>>29007773
Hey, fellow ISFP! You are probably a nice guy<3
>>29008795
This is true. The only masculine thing that I find hard to do is be motivated. My dad is confused, too. He is wondering why we are so different in terms of ambitions. My mom is patient, however.
My gf is quite patient, too. She thinks I have talent and charm, but also wished I would pursue more projects. She is a weird mix of both.
>>29009290
>My gf
Damn, if girls sticks with you, it's good. If you're not interested in being ambitious maybe you should tell her.
>>29007209
INFP here.ENFJs are awesome.grill?
>>29009356
But I am... I think. Okay, maybe just in name only, so that I have something to go on about when its my turn to speak at the reunions.
Drawing is ambitious, I think. Just as ambitious as becoming an astronaut, if you are interested in becoming proficient.
Anyways, I think I might not be as ambitious as I think? Because I'm always disappointed in myself with how little work I get done that maybe I should just lower my standards and my pace.
Are INFP naturally pretty bad with work ethic?
>>29009175
Thanks. Do people call you a nice person often as well?
I have no idea why, but people always say that I'm nice.
I started to think that when people say that, or try to be with me for a short amount of time its because they want to use me.
Maybe it's just paranoia but it seems that I can't count on my classmates and (used to be) online friends. As far as I know this has led me to socially isolating myself from anyone.
I'm thinking about becoming a complete shut in because people are only scaring me more and more.
ISTJ is the most shit-on type in the whole spectrum.
We're marginalized as the "wageslaves" or the "sheep" just because we see value in laws, and we are often considered too "uptight" compared to other types. There's literally nothing good said about ISTJs, but neither is there anything majorly bad about ISTJs either, and so we're simply forgotten.
Look at this thread. This was supposed to be about ISTJs, but here we have other types chiming in like this thread was for them. There's a larger discussion about ISTP/ISFP than there is ISTJ here.
>>29009476
>ISTJ is the most shit-on type in the whole spectrum.
no, that would be ESFJs
they're insufferable
>>29009476
Isn't having said nothing about istj mean a lot
You boring cucks
mbti is a meme
>>29009439
>Just as ambitious as becoming an astronaut, if you are interested in becoming proficient
That's good to hear. If you want to be famous and recognized in drawing, it's good.
>Are INFP naturally pretty bad with work ethic?
Short answer - yes. Long answer would involve things like INFP are naturally sensitive to other people criticism - other people have to choose the words that they wouldnt insult you. As boss, they would prefer other NFP people who can understand their character and not to demand anything beyond their limits. Overall INFP's works best in freelancer works, where they can have their own way.
>>29009565
Being forgotten is worse than being hated.
True robots know this.
>>29009476
Somebody has to keep order and civilization going on, even if unacknowledged, those are ISTJ
>>29009595
Damn, thanks a lot. You gave me a lot of great stuff to mull over.
What MBTI are you, by the way?
>>29009697
>Damn, thanks a lot. You gave me a lot of great stuff to mull over.
No problem anon.
>What MBTI are you, by the way?i dont know honestly. i've been doing these mbti, cognitive function tests far too long. As much as i'd like to see myself introvert, i'm not one, so probably i'm ESTP or weak ESFP.
>>29009537
But if they actually deserve it it's different.
>>29009471
I mostly only talk to the few friends I have and we are very close so I guess they not need to tell me if I'm nice. Though I know that I have a tendency to be quite diplomatic.
Take care of yourself. <3

ISTP here. this etizolam is pretty good, is just came in an hour you go

>>29009476
Nigger ISTJs dominate real life you have nothing to complain about. You can take everyone else down with pure numbers.
>>29009876
The only close friends I had moved away. Barely have contact with them anymore.
I'm a literal wreck at the moment and become worse. I think I might need a person around me that helps me keep on track atleast.
If I'm by myself I literally don't do anything. It makes me sad.
Only time will tell how I'll turn out. <3
>>29009817
Clearly not. You went out of your way to talk me through INFP stuff. I'm glad you're whatever you are tho. Keep carryin on
>>29010335
It's a pretty silent majority. Considering how MBTI threads go, you'd think they were a minority.
>>29010416
>Clearly not.
What do you mean? Mistyped type?
>You went out of your way to talk me through INFP stuff.
I just can relate a lot to INFP feels.
