As the title says, I'm curious to know what your most cherished relationships are, with who (married partner, boyfriend, BFF, mother, cousin etc), what their type is and which of their XXXX qualities have contributed to your positive relationship. And on the flip-side, what were the worst and...

So, I'm a third year student in a double major of Biology and Humanities. The humanties side of my degree I've always been inclined to, I get pretty much all A's with the occasional B+, I really love the material. But sometimes I feel like that half of my degree maybe just doesn't have worldly...

I find that for the important things - a presentation or a release or a planned personal event of significant importance I always have multiple plans in place for all the moveable parts. What is your experience? Do you do the same? Do you think that having multiple plans is more a "P" type thing...

Hey guys, Im pretty new to personality cafe, that is, being a member and actually writing or contributing to the forums. Ive been researching MBTI and Jungian Psychology, for about a half a year now, and tbh since taking a test it now consumes nearly 100% of my typical ENTP bullshit internet...

Anyone here like Venture Brothers? It's this Adult Swim cartoon that's basically about failure. The concept of the show is how a Johnny Quest type kid would grow up after a childhood of being a boy hero, which is basically hinted at as being "traumatized." The main characters at the beginning of...

I was asked by someone on here what I would suggest to anyone in a long-term relationship who wants to make it last, I gave the following suggestions: I shared this with my ex-wife and she added the following information. I think it is important to know it takes two to make a marriage work...

I know this might be a long story-but I'd be more than grateful to anyone who's spares a few minutes of their time to read this and maybe give me a response. So, I am a 20 year old ISFP, who dropped out of college to pursue my desire to be a Graphic designer on my own. As they say about many...

So I'm definitely a 3 even though I was slow to realize it due to being an introvert (INTP). I recently moved to Los Angeles to pursue a career in film production. The first month was really cool, I got to work on the Oscars and I ran the Hollywood 10K. Then I had two seizures. No driver's...

I have massive self confidence and rarely have self esteem or self doubt issues. But looking around the forum plenty of INTJs seem to me to have low self esteem and self confidence... So, at the risk of getting trolled or slated by the ever confident @Bugs, I'd like to know your INTJ views on...

I would like to know your opinion on failure, depending on your MBTI, your type, your experiences and your whole background (cultural, social, educational, professional, etc.) or on your theories.

So I have this method of handling difficult things that I'm going to use again today to work through the negative emotions that I'm having. What I do is sit down and just write down all my thoughts as they come, whether they make sense or not, or whether they are right or wrong. This allows me...

So I'm new here! Been into MBTI for a while and in typical ENTJ style forced all friends, family and everyone within a 20 mile proximity to take the test- but have not found another ENTJ! So I guess I'm here to meet people I can relate to! I'm doing an Arts degree and am surrounded by ESFP's and...

INTPs: Well Placed to Get Over Screw-Ups? While it has often been said that INTPs are too hard on themselves, it seems to me that INTPs are well placed to get over screw ups through future focus, problem solving and extraverted feeling. Some may need a little help with planning and execution of...

Hello My fellow Personality Cafe members. I'm new here, and this is my first post. This is my story. All I'm trying to accomplish is to succeed in my life. [Before we begin let me say that I took the MBTI test first time around 3 years ago with the aid of a professional career consultant at my...

As far as I can tell, a lot of you are the smooth operator type. You have a gift for just going for what you want, and it nearly always seems to work. I'm curious about the few times you just couldn't get away with something (if any). What happened? What were the circumstances? What do you...

I'm an ESTJ that is boarderline ENTJ, have turned down multiple promotions due to fear of failure, and have been held back in entrepreneurial pursuits for a decade to avoid risk. When I consciously think about Deciding like ENTJ I feel confident in the big picture and have the 'this should...

I hope somebody will relate, but I think it's probably not an INFJ thing. I have gotten my driver's license recently, after a great deal of struggling for it (bureaucracy, bad luck...). My parents are over-protective, though, and they don't trust me to drive by myself. My father has twice gone...

Friday 8/17/12 Midnight I am so tired, I'm miserable. I decide to take a 15 minute nap. I turn on the tv and set my alarm, and fall asleep within a minute. I don't wake up until 8 this morning. I had slept thru my alarm which apparently has an auto shut off feature if I don't turn it off...

Forum, My entire life I've made every valiant effort to find someone unique, get close to them, and just share myself with them. But I've been so deprived of this connection; I can never find it. And even when I come close, I choke! I fail to force myself to display my feelings with this other...

I'm in 12th grade right now and I pretty much messed up everything that I accomplished in 10th and 11th grade. I used to get good grades and now I have c's in most of my classes. I'm almost always in a bad mood but I don't know why I feel this way. It may be because my family is moving to the...
