rdm_ation I totally wasn't going to let myself get sucked into this. Nup. But I am hopeless, and so here I am - after ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
pebblegosling 's post about Myers-Briggs personality typing bugbeary informed me of my type. I am in the middle of reading descriptions and I have to say, for someone who's never met me she's done better at typing me than any quiz ever has. Of course, there are some things that don't sit right with me, but I'm so hard to type generally that I'm just going to post the lines that rang so true and had me going 'omg omg omg'.
They have thinner psychological boundaries than most, and are at risk for being hurt or even abused by less sensitive people. ENFJs often take on more of the burdens of others than they can bear.
- Oh man, that last bit.
In the sway of this rational function, these folks are predisposed to closure in matters pertaining to people, and especially on behalf of their beloved.
ENFJs are blessed through introverted intuition with clarity of perception in the inner, unconscious world.
Extraverted Feeling rules the ENFJ's psyche. In the sway of this rational function, these folks are predisposed to closure in matters pertaining to people, and especially on behalf of their beloved. As extraverts, their contacts are wide ranging. Face-to-face relationships are intense, personable and warm, though they may be so infrequently achieved that intimate friendships are rare.
- that very last bit not quite so much, but still relevant.
(those are all from here)
ENFJ's main interest in life is giving love, support, and a good time to other people. They are focused on understanding, supporting, and encouraging others.
They are fun to be with, and truly understand and love people. They are typically very straight-forward and honest.
- ummm
ENFJs have a special gift with people, and are basically happy people when they can use that gift to help others. They get their best satisfaction from serving others. Their genuine interest in Humankind and their exceptional intuitive awareness of people makes them able to draw out even the most reserved individuals.
ENFJs have a strong need for close, intimate relationships, and will put forth a lot of effort in creating and maintaining these relationships. They're very loyal and trustworthy once involved in a relationship.
Last passage, it's long, but if you do know me read it and you'll know why it's freaking me out right now. Fuuuu
ENFJ's are so externally focused that it's especially important for them to spend time alone. This can be difficult for some ENFJs, because they have the tendency to be hard on themselves and turn to dark thoughts when alone. Consequently, ENFJs might avoid being alone, and fill their lives with activities involving other people. ENFJs tend to define their life's direction and priorities according to other people's needs, and may not be aware of their own needs. It's natural to their personality type that they will tend to place other people's needs above their own, but they need to stay aware of their own needs so that they don't sacrifice themselves in their drive to help others.

I'm just a little bit impressed with Janna's typing skills right now, not going to lie.
I'll post a proper update later tonight, but for now this ramble will do!

That's definitely you, LOL. Like when I comment-locked that entry and you commented anyway with exactly what you thought and didn't for one minute let me be whiny and self-pitying, LMAO. <3
Isn't MBTI fun?? ^^

Don't forget before university. You've gotten lucky of late, and deservingly, as you are lovely.
