Interesting...

I had my close friend humor me and take the MB test this weekend, as our relationship seems strained. I was interested to see what she was, and how that may be contributing to the dynamic

I think the only problem to me is that they give me an idea and while I go off to push the limits of it until I get tired, they've gone on to the next one

Thanks for your input.

Oor relationship has become more strained. She is of the variety who must give me advice, and feels I should live as she does, and handle things the same way.

For instance, if I have something serious to talk about I write a letter. Much simpler for me emotion wise, expression wise, die to my personality type and ADD, but she finds this unacceptable.

She never asks if I am OK, or says it will be OK or does anything comforting at all. I think perhaps our personality type needs reassurance at times. I mean, who doesn't.

We too get "mad" at each other, though it is never really a fight. Although she did chew me out something fierce several weeks ago, instead of handling the situation in a caring manner...that was bad, because I tend to shove people away who do that.

So it is an interesting ride.

my best friends have been ENFPs we get along great because we have the same interests and understand each other. i rarely feel overshadowed, but it does happen. i also feel like i am the more mature/older sister one by virtue of my slight introversion.

I think that she is just overbearing by nature, and can be a bit bossy. We get along OK, just sometimes it is overwhelming. Also when she expects me to handle things the way she would, or I should that is really annoying.
