Wow. We are VERY similar! Haha, the only significant difference is our FEELING percentage. Awesome~!

Qualitative analysis of your type formula

-slightly expressed perceiving personality

I'm a healer (see Idealist). What are you guys?

nouvelle kari said...

haha! I am a perceiver whereas you guys are judgers! hahahaha

nouvelle kari said...

Here's a link to my Idealist profile of a Healer.

Still Sandy said...

Hey we don't really JUDGE...okay well I do, but still here:

Myers and Briggs held that types with a preference for judging show the world their preferred judging function (thinking or feeling). So TJ types tend to appear to the world as logical, and FJ types as empathetic. According to Myers,[1]:75 judging types prefer to "have matters settled." Those types ending in P show the world their preferred perceiving function (sensing or intuition). So SP types tend to appear to the world as concrete and NP types as abstract. According to Myers,[1]:75 perceiving types prefer to "keep decisions open."

nouvelle kari said...

But what is your temperament? It should link you on your results to www.keirsey.com.

nouvelle kari said...

BTW... I love how we all have similarities with our results! Just like how we are all fire signs!

Still Sandy said...

I like things settled... and you don't. It fits.

It also says that I am a Counselor


They can be hard to get to know, since they tend not to share their innermost thoughts or their powerful emotional reactions except with their loved ones.

The concept of 'poetic justice' is appealing to the INFJ.
You know I'm a spiteful bitch.
INFJs will suddenly withdraw into themselves, sometimes shutting out even their intimates... to rebuild their depleted resources and a filter to prevent the emotional overload
You know I do this

Still Sandy said...

This sounds like you
" are patient with complicated situations, but impatient with routine details"
I'm the complete opposite!

This is my whole bio

"Healers present a calm and serene face to the world, and can seem shy, even distant around others. But inside they're anything but serene, having a capacity for personal caring rarely found in the other types."

"Set off from the rest of humanity by their privacy and scarcity (around one percent of the population), Healers can feel even more isolated in the purity of their idealism."

"Also, Healers might well feel a sense of separation because of their often misunderstood childhood. Healers live a fantasy-filled childhood-they are the prince or princess of fairy tales-an attitude which, sadly, is frowned upon, or even punished, by many parents. With parents who want them to get their head out of the clouds, Healers begin to believe they are bad to be so fanciful, so dreamy, and can come to see themselves as ugly ducklings. In truth, they are quite OK just as they are, only different from most others-swans reared in a family of ducks."

"When making decisions, Healers follow their heart not their head, which means they can make errors of fact, but seldom of feeling."

Sounds like me.

"Counselors have an exceptionally strong desire to contribute to the welfare of others, and find great personal fulfillment interacting with people, nurturing their personal development, guiding them to realize their human potential."

That isn't you! hahaha

Still Sandy said...

You're right, I couldn't give a rats ass about people and their development! At least the world at large.

Did you pretend to be a Princess Kari?

nouvelle kari said...

ahahaha... That was so not me growing up! I wanted to be the Queen! haha

But I act like the prince! HA!

That's what I thought. You never wanted to be saved...you wanted to save people or control them, whichever tickled your fancy for the day.

You were more the type to put us in a bad situation, hypothetically, and then come to our rescue!

But it is true, you care a great deal about people/life but because you are a P you don't readily show it.

Me, I am an J, so that means I want people to know I am caring, whether I am or not!!!

nouvelle kari said...

"Me, I am an F, so that means I want people to know I am caring, whether I am or not!!!"

You sick bitch! haha

"You were more the type to put us in a bad situation, hypothetically, and then come to our rescue!"

Hey! Do not even blame me for putting you in bad situations! I made life fun and interesting! I just knew how to live! :p

Still Sandy said...

What, it's true. You would create a game/world and say something like this:

We are in a haunted house

We are attacked!

Scott the ghosts got you, you're captured.

We'll save you later!!!

nouvelle kari said...

ahahaha... Effed up! But it was so much fun! You cannot say that we didn't have fun playing! C'mon! All of our carnivals, haunted backyards, puppet shows, movie days, etc. We had imagination!

Still Sandy said...

Yeah, without you there, I would have been drawing pictures all day at the kitchen bar.

If nothing else, you dragged me out to play and always found SOME way to include me.

Still, go save the world one inured person at a time.

I'm supposed to help people by listening to them and coming to intuitive conclusions about their welfare. This would be fun~! I could come to care about my patients eventually.

Still, ever heard the saying,

"like a nurse, someone paid to care" ???

I'm afraid I would lose what little caring ability I have!

Still Sandy said...

okay, dinner time~! Pizza yum.


And Katie,

be sure to tell us some of your thoughts when you get the chance!

nouvelle kari said...

Or maybe you would gain some compassion... Never know 'til you try.

nouvelle kari said...

Yes, Katie you have been absent during this conversation! Thoughts, details, ideas?

Still Sandy said...

You're right. I'm a bit pessimistic~!

Kate said...

I think the INFJ profile fits me quite well. I was surprised that we are so similar. It's the deep Japanese roots! I'm glad this was such a successful post!
