LOL, this is exactly the kind of thing I would do, hoping in the back of my mind that my crush would stumble upon it and it would suddenly make it “click” in their mind. I relate to so much of this article.

I read the “21 Signs that you’re an INFL” too, and related to most of the signs too. I think that’s partly due to how it’s written, many of them are kind of vague and could apply to most introverts. I also read the “8 Contradictions You Might Experience If You’re an INFJ” article and I strongly related to every one of those, lol. But now that I actually took a personality test and have been reading about ISTJ, I’d have to say that ISTJ sounds much more like me than INFJ. I think it make sense that there are going to be people that fall in-between personality types enough that they could score different ones on different tests. I think of it as a spectrum, and the personality types are just starting points; everybody is going to combine elements of the different types in their own way.

Thanks for reading! I’d be interested to see how your character shapes up.

I agree! ISTJ articles are rare! I’m glad you enjoyed it.

There is certainly a distinct ISTJ vibe to the reasoning behind the major points, even if my type overlaps on occasion.

It’s also fun because I’m thinking about writing a story with an ISTJ character, so this is highly relevant.

/totally bewildered.

Hi! I actually had a couple of friends who said the same thing. One just tested as an IXFJ. (She scored ‘N’ on one test and ‘S’ on another).

I think that a lot of Introverted-Judging types might relate to this, because we like to process things and come to conclusions about them.

I don’t pretend to have mastered all of the functions by any means, but I could see how the same behaviors would be exhibited by those who have strong Sensing/Thinking preferences as well because those types tend to value having details and ration to support their conclusions.
