I'm not 100% certain that I am an ESFP, though, if we are going by functions, then I most definitely am an ESFP. I don't know - I really don't want to have a label put on me at the moment, so I just stick to 'Unknown' - but ESFP seems pretty likely.
Anyways, I can relate to a lot of what the others said. However, there are some things I cannot relate to.
Growing up I was always this sweet little shy girl that everybody loved. I was very insecure, and I let it show; I was also a people-pleaser, and I mostly wanted to please my family, which meant that I had to be home pretty much 24/7 and following their orders. All I can remember from my teenage (middle school/high school) years was that I was my happiest when I was with people and put into an action-filled environment; however, I had no confidence in myself - and a lot of this had to do with my home environment. Honestly, I spent a lot of my teen years feeling depressed because I so desperately wanted to be the girl going to those parties and having a good time, but at the same time I didn't want to disappoint my family... so I chose to please my family, rather than go out and try making friends. I always got along with everybody. People always seemed to love me, and I loved being around just about everybody - but there was no interaction outside of school, which made it hard for me to develop long-term friendships. The few times I did get to go out and have fun, I felt my confidence increase a tad bit and my state of depression disappeared... until I went home, and then it was back.
It wasn't until I hit the age of 17-18 that I really developed confidence in myself. I am 21 now, and there is certainly a lot of improvement still needed on my part; nonetheless, I am nowhere near as shy and insecure as I was 5-6 years ago. I have pretty much stopped listening to my family as much, and I do my own thing for the most part. I love to talk to people, and I can pretty much talk to anybody. The only thing I find difficult is one-on-one conversations and stuff. I would much rather be with a variety of people, rather than just one person.
Yes, I prefer being out with people and having a good time. I really hate being indoors and/or not around people having fun. However, I think that if I am an ESFP I have already developed a strong sense of inner stability and maturity. I have a pretty well developed Te (the tertiary function of an ESFP, which, if I am remembering correctly, usually doesn't develop until a person is in their 30s or something). I think my 'maturity' has a lot to do with how I was raised. I grew up before it was my time - which isn't necessarily a bad thing, but I still wish I had gotten to live my teenage life like a proper teen.
I can't relate to smoking weed. In fact, I have never smoked anything and I do not plan on it. I have been offered so many times, and I have turned it down each and every time. It's just not right, and I know I can still have fun without it - I guess this is my Fi speaking right here? :crazy: Drinking is something I would like to say I don't do, but I do. It's not something I do often, but I do drink on occasion. I spent Thursday, Friday, and Saturday night drinking - going bar hopping with some friends and whatnot. I should have stopped drinking a lot sooner than I did - Saturday night in particular - but I was having so much fun that I didn't really care about what might happen later, I just wanted to continue having fun (and I guess this is the dominant Se speaking here, hehe).
I also have a tendency to flirt quite a bit. Half the time I don't even realize that I'm flirting, people just mistake my overly-friendliness for flirting. Haha.
People think I am so confident. On the outside I am - I am not going to let people see my insecurities like I did when I was younger; however, I still do have some insecurities that I am working on. Nobody knows it but me, though.
But yeah. It's very possible that I am an ESFP, but I guess I'm a somewhat matured one or something?
