ISFJ
Introverted Sensing Feeling Judging
--and--

Type Four
The Individualist
The introspective, romantic type. Fours are self-aware, sensitive, and reserved. They are emotionally honest, creative, and personal, but can also be moody and self-conscious. Withholding themselves from others due to feeling vulnerable and defective, they can also feel disdainful and exempt from ordinary ways of living. They typically have problems with melancholy, self-indulgence, and self-pity. At their Best: inspired and highly creative, they are able to renew themselves and transform their experiences.

Pretty close.

One of the most enjoyable books on Myers-Briggs typology is "Type Talk" by Otto Kroeger and Janet Thuesen. A fun but informative read with lots of great stories and anecdotes. Here's one (and I'm paraphrasing because I loaned the book to someone and never got it back):

A group of Js and a group of Ps were given an identical task - given a bag of colored jellybeans and told to use them to design a new library system.

The Js were very serious and developed and tested several models before coding each section with the various colors and marking each space on a map with the candy. Satisfied, they sought out the facilitator to explain - in detail - the theory behind their system.

The Ps argued a bit about the uselessness of the task. Then they ate the jellybeans.


Go Ps!

You Ps are time-wasters. This S would have eaten the jellybeans with no arguments.

I'm married to an INTJ. Happily even.

You all have your moments.

Pretty damn accurate

I'm an ENTJ.

Edit: I took it again , and I am an ENFP, which is way more accurate.

INFP and a 4/Individualist. I first took these tests six years ago and have studied Personality ever since. Love it!

The only thing MBTI shows is how a fool is parted with his money. This instrument has many flaws, first of which Ms. M & Ms. B. didn't properly interpret Jung.

When I wrote my Masters thesis, I argued that Rudolf Laban's Effort Shapes were a much better indicator of personality and much easier to learn.

went over to http://bloginality.love-productions.com/index2.php and took their four question test

maybe it's not as accurate but it sure feels better being an ISFP instead of a INTJ

not that I think I'm artistic - I feel like I've never been allowed to feel that way

mid-life crisis in process here

That's kind of freakly bluemoon, because as I was reading the situation my mental register was this is a stupid task, if these are good jelly beans I'll just eat them...
