MBTI

This is /lit/ - Literature. You were supposed to add "Books for this feel?" at the end of the post to make it relevant to the board.

INTP

I haven't taken this bullshit test in a minute, but I remember it being IN something J or something or the other. INTJ? I don't know. Taking that shit seriously is so goofy and ridiculous to me. Try not to let it define your goals and current endeavors.

You misguided, impoverished little person. Take greater time to study Jung's theories, and you'll find his genius terrifying and his theories wonderfully astute. They aren't akin to """calculating""" the impacts of mystic movements of planets and stellar bodies, which are too many to number, and, therefore, whose energetic ramifications on our persons is beyond man's ability to consider. Nor is it an attempt to predict the future - though certain things about a person's likely choices can be inferred from a combination of (1) knowing them, (2) knowing their type, and (3) roughly understanding where they stand in their process of maturation. Jung's theories are insightful observations which are an attempt to see beyond word and deed into the psyche and explain it. A bloody good attempt.

Can you not, can peoples personalities not change?

Infj

Someone says it is God tier type, I don't know man sometimes I feel like it is the worst of all types

We are just observant (or at least it's me), from my perspective in a group I'm the one who is likeable by everyone but other than that no one calls you directly, no one consider you more than a certain level

If me and my other close friends join a group of friends my name is never spoken loud (stupid example), "hey hi Anon!" I have to talk first always 'cause if not no one talk to me, and not because I'm a "looser" or "aloof" but just because the way I am I'm not perceived interesting by a first look

Most of the times I don't mind on this but sometimes makes me think

Another infj that relate to this?

Opposite for me. No group, but can always have a conversation with acquaintances.

>>10032188
I totally get what you mean but you have to appreciate we're not on this Earth to have a good time and us especially. We observe because someone needs to be observent and its not pretty what we see and thats what frightens people and why they don't want to see themselves in you. But you may be the only person they ever see themselves in when the time comes and you need to be ready for that. When that time comes you'll be more than a fucking name to them.

After all what name does God have and what does he do but observe

>>10032188
While it doesn't start out that way, its similar for me. When I find a new circle of friends I feel as if I end up being the center for a long time, largely because the way I meet people is through what I'm good at... for example a class project, I pull people together and organize it and we end up friends afterwards, or in a video game I'm particularly skilled at and my friends want to learn from me/want me to help them.

In the end though, they end up having more fun with each other than with me, even if I've been there for them to talk them out of suicide, it ends up they get closer and closer and I fade into the distance whether or not I try to keep up with them.

Several times in my life now, one time even costing the love of my life, I've just walked out of a circle of friends and hardly ever saw it affect those I left behind.

I personally brag a lot, but I mean this as humbly as I can, I feel as if there's a lot to me, a lot of things I know/do, I collect hobbies, but nobody ever cares to learn more about me than who I am on the surface, I guess that's what you mean by "not perceived interesting by a first look."

If you'd like someone to talk to, I don't mind.

you guessed right and i can relate completely with your post

It sucks that people just scrape the surface, but all my potential, knowledge, skill are under and not visible

and it is difficult to show up all this because the way i am, is weird to me to sow up my self 'cause it seems to me to be an ego show

>>10032510
The few friends i have are all superficial acquaintances. Iìve honestly stopped caring much about showing people my "true self" or some crap. I
think they would find my obscure interests a turn off and who wouldn't honestly. It's a pretty sad life right now.

>>10030940
I tried taking one of those personality tests, but I didn't agree with my result. I think I'm not able to think truthfully about myself.

>>10032510
It's a real shame too, because on top of all that, I never can find anyone with similar passions to me. I meet people through shallow things, and if I ever try to show that beneath-the-surface stuff it's boring to them.

It makes me wonder, do the vast majority of people feel that way? that they've got a rich inner life that nobody can connect with them over? The thought that others might deal with it too is frustrating to me, personally.

>>10032609
What obscure interests are you talking about?
Some of mine are linguistics, medical studies, computer hardware, and some spur-of-the-moment ones.

And of course a bunch that would be obscure off this website, but are pretty common despite the board.

>>10032609
I don't bother having friends anymore. In fact I see having "friends" as an unmanly contrivance of modern life fit only for gangsters and women

>>10032621
The tests aren't so accurate because a lot of the things we'd likely flip-flop on. I did get the result I agree with, but really it's the reading and the details that convinced me.

Read the descriptions of the different types, you'll find parts in each you think attribute to you or that you wish you had, but likely there will be one type that almost fits everything you know about yourself, even some patterns you weren't aware you had.

>>10032628
right now mostly philosophical (especially eastern) and literary interests which may not seem that odd to you, but i try to keep it hidden from the turbo-normies because i'm afraid of what they think.

Unfortunately i care too much about other peoples opinions. (auxiliary Fe i guess).

>>10032657
You should dump your 'friends', you don't need them and you'll feel so much better when you wiped your hands clean of them

>>10032657
Eastern philosophy sounds pretty interesting actually!

I've read a little bit about Theravada Buddhism because I heard of a concept called "the four immeasurables," and at that time in my life I was trying to find a way to be a more empathetic/compassionate individual.

I'm the best personality type. Which one is that?

>>10032049
Even worst, people make MBTI just use jung idea archetype to believe people could be classification in 16 categories.

INTP-T

It's good to see plenty of elite individuals here on /lit/.

Did the test a few years ago but don't remember what I got back then. (I did the test the same way you would do a "What kind of bread are you" test)

Last year I did the test twice, with 8 months between them, and I got twice INFP. Reading through it, I do recognize myself in many of these things.

Just took it and got INFP.

>>10033171
You mean that you think that when answering the questions, you won't be honest with yourself, or what? That aside, I really enjoy Jung's descriptions of personality types, better than his better known esoteric stuff. I also noticed that Jung tends to be really down on neurotic types for some reason, perhaps because he also was one.

>>10033189
What I think my reaction to a situation will be is different from what will actually happen is what I was trying to say

>>10033199

I was INTP when I was a high inhibition low testosterone fat teenager, now I just want to fight people in the street

I usually get INTP or INTJ. I like reading Kierkegaard and Marshall McLuhan.

Why is this test so widespread? Ask any pseud what their Meyer Briggs is and they'll cream themselves as they're enlightening you with their own intelligence before moving on to talking about Jordan Peterson and how dragons are "metatrue"

And why do people take it so seriously? Same with people talking about Type A and Type B personalities. Do you think you can just categorize all people into some nice little organized box and make sense of this world. It's not so easy, kiddo.

>>10033436
You're right, but sometimes people just want to talk about themselves and have a little fun.

I'd like to bump the thread and repeat this anon's question.
I'm not interested in MBTI or any such embarrassing spooks, but I would like to know more about Jung. Do I just read Man and his Symbols, and then I'll have a reasonably solid understanding of Jung? Or is there an early and a late Jung? Did he ever write something regarded as his 'break' with Freud?
I read German so whatever might be recommended doesn't have to be in translation.

>>10034809
Jung on mythology. The book the golden bough is what split freud and jung. Read that and freuds totem and taboo

ENTP, which is clearly the best type. Introversion is gay

INFP, but big five is more accurate. Borderline introverted extroverted, very high openness, low conscientiousness, high agreeableness, very high neuroticism
