I've met a man that I can't figure out for the life of me, but he has absolutely swept me off my feet!
He's definitely an E, but that's where the certainty ends. I've used an iphone app to try to determine his type, and it's telling me that he's either ESTP, ENFJ, ESTJ, or ESFJ.
Some info:
Si/Se: He is traditional, and I've heard him say that he's "old school" many times. He is moved by things that have a deep meaning and are connected to the past (his past as well as my past). HOWEVER, he's also told me about times when he's jumped off a bridge naked, or decided at a moment's notice to take a long, trip without any plans of exactly where he's going or when he'll return (these trips happened when he was younger and he doesn't do this now).
Fi/Fe: He's Fe all the way. He loves doing for others, very much a protector and guardian. Loves cooking for his group of friends, and he often doesn't eat until everyone else is finished. Springs to life when anyone close to him needs anything. Focused on the needs of others.
Ti/Te: I think he's Ti
Ni/Ne: Not sure
Part of the confusion is that when he's with me and with his other close friends, he is one type; but when he's on the job (he's part owner in a construction company), he is a different type. On the job, he's a pretty hardcore, get-it-done, no room for nonsense, don't waste my time kind of person. All business and focused on production. There's no room for touchy-feely stuff, he's not worried about pissing anyone off or hurting their feelings. Just get the job done right, and get it done as quickly as possible.
He notices details, doesn't seem to miss anything...ever. Can be having a conversation and tell you exactly what was just said on the radio at the same time. Attentive to everything that's going on around him.
Strong value system.
With me, he's a hopeless romantic. Few have seen him cry, but he has let me past that wall. He's open and direct (which is a breath of fresh air for me). He sends me a text with a different picture of flowers every day. For the past 18 years, he has missed very few days of work; but since we've met, neither of us can focus on the responsibilities we had previously placed a very high priority on. He's taken off work for most of the past four weeks.
Words I would use to describe him when he's with close friends:
Loyal
Attentive
Protective
Involved
Giving
Talkative
Outgoing
Servant
Empathetic
Direct
Open
Words I would use to describe him when he's at work:
Dedicated
No nonsense
Driving
Closed
Direct
Unapproachable
Anyone have some insight???
