Trying to sort out a little issue I have here without being completely biased towards my position in said issues.
Situation:I have two ENFP friends that seem complete opposites of each other at times. Both seem very happy, friendly and personable people. One of these people I have been friends with for many years now, the other I have recently met a couple of months ago. The first person which I will now refer to as "buddy", is constantly happy and basically high on life, she is willing to do a lot of things, unless her ridiculous guilt complex kicks in (she herself has confirmed it is evil). The second person who I will refer to as "friend" is also very friendly in person, but tends to attack me as a person when he is frustrated.
"buddy", "friend", and I play a game together online, we have mutual friends online that we know. These friends are real life friends, and tend to gravitate towards "buddy" more than "friend". Now when we hand out together (we have only a few times due to scheduling issues) both are very friendly, and give the high on life feel that just draws you in, however, "friend" has this thing about him. He tends to get very emotional when criticized, but constantly attempts to attack people (in terms of pointing out flaws) then justifies it as defense. On multiple occasions he has told me to more or less stop being myself because it was annoying (being modest, reserved, not wanting the spotlight on me).
My question: Are there extreme sides to the ENFP personality? I met "buddy" frist, and assumed that most ENFPs would be similar to her in the sense of being emotional, peace-loving, personable and friendly. However, I am coming to see through "friend" that there is a large gap that I have come to see between "friend" and "buddy's" personalities.
Another question is it more likely to find an ENFP along the lines of friend or buddy? I know people are different due to the basics like upbringing, temperament, and such, but I mean statistically which would be more likely for me meet.
Thanks in advance
