Hello everyone! I'm a long time lurker, but I've finally decided to just create an account and see what happens.
I'm an INFP 4w3-7w6-9w8 sx/so who has known about these tests for almost four years now and was operating under the illusion of being an ENFP until quite recently. I'm still not sure how I mistook myself for an extravert, all things considering, but so it goes. It's especially funny to me because of the classic stereotype of most INFPs being mistyped and in denial.
It turns out that one of my strong INFP ideals was of myself as an extravert, despite every piece of evidence to the contrary. (I act like an ENFP when I'm happy or with friends, which was the source of my confusion. Needless to say, I actually spend most of my time alone.) After weeks of soul-searching and agonizing over every detail of my personality, I have finally accepted my true introverted self.
I also have some degree of both wings in my 4, for those of you who are familiar with the Enneagram, but I'm more comfortable projecting the 4w3 image (a thought process that makes me think that the 3-wing is dominant).
I'm currently a college student double-majoring in Classics and Art History, which I absolutely adore. I also write quite a bit and dream of being a novelist some day. If any of you are interested, my tumblr username is the same as here, @throughtheroses. I'm always looking for more people to follow.
It's nice to meet all of you! I'm glad to be here--if you'll have me, anyway.
