The ESFP guy friend I have doesn't have a "warrior" persona. In fact, he will take about anybody under his wing and just be friends with them. Is it a deep meaningful relationship? Certainly not - heck, I can hardly get a meaningful conversation out of him. But he just likes to live in the moment and accept just about anyone.I can basically relate with you.. know the person first before making some assumptions. He's a fighter, I'm pacifistic and passive in nature, but I wait for the opportunity to fight. He doesn't like it; I don't like his "warrior" persona.
The good thing is that helps us get along just fine is that he doesn't mind my need to organize stuff a bit (and I don't mean in the physically organizing/being neat as Si would, but the Ni way of planning and looking ahead). That being said, I don't usually mind it when he randomly calls me with some crazy idea telling me he's at the airport and waiting on the flight to Vegas and if I want to go with (haven't quite done one like that... but hey, lol)
I've noticed that when I try to look ahead too much with an ESTP and I try to add them in my equation of figuring out the future, then they get annoyed a bit and won't hesitate in telling me how I should just "live in the moment".
