Auburn, Thanks! Yeah, that's been my recent dilemma. I suspect that I use Ne-Si, but recently thought maybe it was Se-Ni instead. There lies the difficulty... I will check the thread you posted. I definitely feel my writing has an Ne vibe to it, with the rambling and changing directions...

What? ISTP's auxilliary function is Se!

Yep, makes perfect sense. I am starting to think I am INTP with an abnormally high dose of Se.

Thanks guys. Of course, every test is flawed. And even if it's a really good test, the results are going to depend so much on personal circumstances (mood, etc), so tests are not really going to (necessarily) yield consistent or accurate results. That's why I started learning about the...

Dunno if any of you remember me, but I was here last year for a little while. My interest in type waned for awhile, but I recently became re-interested. I am now somewhat confused about my type. I joined personality cafe, and one of the posters there suggested that I consider ISTP, which I...

Wow, thanks Decaf. That cleared some stuff up for me. I'm pretty sure now I am a T.

<--- pirate. Battle to the death! (Only kidding. Welcome.)

Another XNTP! :) Welcome to the forum.

I look forward to your stories and insight. Welcome!

Ok, I understand now. So in my case, I tend to do things for the action, rather than introspection. Often introspection will happen naturally, but I don't set out for that purpose. I'm still a bit hazy about this, can you elaborate? I do feel fairly detached from my inner self... in some...

That was quite amusing trife, made my afternoon. Welcome, by the way!

That's really interesting, thanks for posting it. I had no idea my Si and Se were so strong, they feel oddly natural for me (although I know I couldn't keep them up for very long periods of time). I knew Ne and Ti were going to be at the top, and this confirms it (they are extremely natural...

I think I am probably a lot like you in that respect (I test about 50/50 on I/E). Both my parents (and my brother) are introverts, and they may have stifled some of my tendency towards extroversion (read: making fun of/punishing me for talking all the time/at "inappropriate" times). Also...
