butterslut.bumping this thread because why the hell are there so many INFJs
also i am INFJ
GrishnackhI try to get myself evaluated but all the free ones seem sketchy. Anyone have any suggestions for a place I can go to that isn't some hack naked in front of their computer?
MinggI got INFJ as well lol.
Wheaty214I flip flop between INFJ and INTJ, I'm pretty evenly split between Feeling and Thought.

my suggestion is, learn about the cognitive functions before actually even doing the test. Then you'll understand why you either are or aren't the personality type you tested. The test usually just gives you an idea of what you COULD be.
if you have a tablet buy the book "How Everything You'll do Will Be Based on Your Personality Type" by Heidi Preibe. It's like 3 bucks and gives an over view of the first two functions.
There is a big difference between INFJ and INTJ.

Wheaty214There's also a big difference in how people act in different situations, sometimes I use logic, sometimes my feelings take over in the situation, it all depends.

VinnieFfairly accurate actually. well, like 85% accurate:
"Clever" is the word that perhaps describes ENTPs best. The professor who juggles half a dozen ideas for research papers and grant proposals in his mind while giving a highly entertaining lecture on an abstruse subject is a classic example of the type. So is the stand-up comedian whose lampoons are both funny and incisively accurate.
ENTPs are usually verbally as well as cerebrally quick, and generally love to argue--both for its own sake, and to show off their debating skills. ENTPs tend to have a perverse sense of humor as well, and enjoy playing devil's advocate. This sometimes confuses, even angers, those who don't understand or accept the concept of argument as a sport.
ENTPs are as innovative and ingenious at problem-solving as they are at verbal gymnastics; on occasion, however, they manage to outsmart themselves. ENTPs can be prone to "sharp practice" – especially cutting corners without regard to the rules if it's expedient – or, their juggling acts may simply be so over-ambitious they collapse.
Both at work and at home, ENTPs are very fond of "toys" -- physical or intellectual, the more sophisticated the better. Once these have been "solved" or become too familiar, however, they’ll be replaced with new ones.
ENTPs are basically optimists, but in spite of this (perhaps because of it?), they can become petulant about small setbacks and inconveniences. (Major setbacks they regard as challenges, and tackle with determination.) ENTPs have little patience with those they consider wrongheaded or unintelligent, and show little restraint in demonstrating this. In general, however, they are genial, even charming, when not being harassed by life.
In terms of their relationships with others, ENTPs are capable of bonding very closely and suddenly with their loved ones. Some appear deceptively offhand with their nearest and dearest; others are so demonstrative that they succeed in shocking co-workers who've only seen their professional side. ENTPs are also quick to spot a kindred spirit, and good at acquiring friends of similar temperament and interests.
ENTPs may sometimes give the impression of being largely oblivious to the rest of humanity except as an audience: good, bad, or potential. In general this is unfair – but it can be difficult to get an ENTP’s attention when they’re not immediately aware of you, especially for an Introvert.
The best approach in communicating with an ENTP is to be straightforward. No games – they’ll win. No "pulling rank" – they’ll just want to put you in your place. No apologies – you’ll undermine yourself. Try "I need/want to talk to you."
