Alrighty, well I've been curious what my Myers-Briggs type was for a long time, but none of the free quizzes I've found online seem to be very effective, because I always get different answers. Some of the most common were ESTP and ENTJ, which seem to be pretty different. So I've typed up a list of personality traits I have (the list is ridiculous by the way, so if anyone can even read through it you're a maverick) and I decided to test the wits of the people on this site.
Here I go:
If you guys have any ideas I would love to hear them! Thanks!
Here I go:
- I’m quick-witted and persuasive, I can almost always bring people over to my side of a topic, and if I’m not succeeding I find that I get highly frustrated, and then just motivated more.
- If I want something, or get an idea in my head, I’m completely tenacious in finding a way to get what I want, and can almost always succeed.
- If a tragedy hits, for example when my sister died last year, I only cried in front of people twice: when I heard the news, and at the funeral. All other break downs I made sure were in private. And my mom is the complete opposite, she’d cry all day long, which didn’t make sense to me, because I felt like she should have been the strong one helping the family through the tragedy, but I felt like I took on that role instead, which was tough, but I wouldn’t have been able to cope any other way.
- Therefore, continuing from the last bullet, I really don’t like to show people how upset I am by situations. For example, if someone says something hurtful, like a personal dig at me, I’ll act like I couldn’t care less even if it made me really upset.
- I really like getting both sides of the story before making a decision, and researching all the facts, because that just makes sense to me.
- I can read people really well. I almost always can tell when a person is lying, even if it’s just a little white lie, just by reading their body language, or their facial expressions. I am also really good at pinpointing a person’s personality right off the bat, although I have been wrong on a few occasions.
- I like being truthful, not to the point of complete bluntness, because I can monitor what I say, sine my ability to read people usually allows me to know their comfort level in a conversation. But I won’t sugar coat my views if they clash with someone else’s, in fact it usually leads to a debate, which I almost always win. But if I’m having dinner at a friend’s house and their parents are highly religious, I’m not going to waltz in and announce that I don’t believe in Jesus, I know when to voice my opinions and when to keep them quiet.
- I’m pretty uncomfortable with deceit, I hate two-faced people, they are my biggest pet peeve. I don’t see how a person can trash talk someone one minute, and then be kind and sweet to them another. If I have a problem with someone, it’s fairly obvious. If it’s an employer or a teacher, however, I stick to an appropriate behavior for the situation.
- If I want something that I feel I deserve, whether it be in the work place, like a promotion, or in a social setting, I’m not afraid to go out and ask for it, or if I feel I can justify my actions, take it.
- I’ve been in a lot of relationships, and only half of them were because I really liked the person. The thing about me is, I like to flirt, and I like to be liked. So, if an attractive guy, who still may kinda be an asshole likes me, I can’t help but be attracted to the fact that he’s into me. Which is really bad, I know, but I can’t help it.
- I have a lazy streak to me, I mean I’m active in dance, and I like to get things accomplished, but if there’s a day where I don’t have anything to do, I’m perfectly content with laying around all day, writing, or on surfing the internet.
- I’ve been told I’m pretty funny, and can always make people laugh.
- I can be sarcastic, not to the point of being bitchy, but it’s another form of humor I use.
- I don’t particularly like kids, I have little patience for their bullshit, but I know if I ever was a parent, I would be fiercely protective of them.
- I like challenges, because it gives me a thrill, and I love the feeling of solving a particularly hard puzzle.
- I really love all the forensic shows on TV, whether it’s the true ones like Forensic Files, or the glamorous shows like CSI (I only like Vegas by the way), they fascinate me. I would love to work in a job that’s investigative like that, because I’ve always been into that since I was a kid. Clue was my favorite board game, and I loved logic puzzles.
- I love being spontaneous and adventurous. I get a thrill from doing something reckless or dangerous, even if I may regret it later.
- I’m a very social person, but in a situation where I don’t know anyone in the room, I like to be approached first. It’s not that I’m uncomfortable, it’s just for some reason how I operate.
- I will almost always do what I feel is the right thing to do, even if it may not work out in my favor. Don’t get me wrong, I’m competitive and love a challenge, but if I feel I won in an unfair or rigged way, I wouldn’t accept. I feel like I have a really good moral compass, even if it may clash with what other people feel is right, but as long as it makes me feel good about myself, that’s usually what I go with.
- If I had to pick one fictional person who I feel I can identify with most it would be Catherine Willows from CSI hands down. We are almost exactly similar in personality and how we behave in situations.
