Bman is an introvert, classic.
I tend towards extroversion in most ways.
Figuring out how to best love each other for a happy, productive, positive relationship would be very beneficial.
And hey, it's time for that. Perhaps overdue.

This is my personality profile:

ENFP (Extroversion, iNtuition, Feeling, Perceiving) is an acronym used in

Do you have a link as to where I can find this test? I remember taking it online before and wonder wtf it would say about me now!

Good site. After you create an acct. there's personality types, 80 questions and a million eerily accurate results (for me anyway). Plus they have a ton of Tarot layouts. Dunno how I feel about digital tarot...but the layouts seemed also eerily accurate. *shrug*

I'm BlazingGlitter there too.

joey and i are both INFP's.

I'd love to hear a bit about your dynamic.
I think B is an INFP, though he's gonna take the test later so I can better understand things.
But I would really love to hear more about your 2x INFP relationship, if you feel okay sharing.

ordinarily, people of the same "type" are more incompatible... but i think infp's natural inclination to be more accepting of people for who they are makes it easier for us to get along. we are about 1-5% of people.... the rarest type (always the oddballs).

we process very similarly, and when we talk about our problems we are able to communicate in the same language... which i think is the big benefit of knowing your partner's type -- learning to communicate in a way the other will understand. of course, our reactions are colored a bit by our own experiences... joey's rough ghetto childhood, my intense ADD... but at the core, we are both good at sitting back and listening/understanding each other for who we are.

both being introverts has its perks... we can sit across the couch from each other on our laptops & barely interact for a long time without one of us taking it wrong... we understand when one of us isn't feeling social.

I'm really eager for Blake to take the test too. I have been exploring different types of communication, trying hard to incorporate a more loosey goosey positive over negative air to my words, and trying desperately not to babble (not here tho). Just basic tips I found on communicating effectively with an introvert. And holy shit - I'm liking the other end of the communication and changing how I express myself with Blake, I now realize, completely deserves attention as the results are wicked worth it.

It's so hard not to babble. I haven't attained that goal a desirable amount of time just yet.

I'm an INTP. My best buddies (who've taken the MBTI) are ENFPs and INTJs. I'm trying to get Mike to take it because I'm insanely curious.

Love that quote about being alone. That's ultimate comfort for an introvert.

I hope very much for B to feel that with me. Goal. And I really want him to take the test too, so I can understand him better.

I wanna know more about Mike.
I'm excited for you.
