Okay so HP asked me to paraphrase my text reply to her last night regarding this thread and my opinions on her MBTI type. I will structure this as a function analysis:
- Ni: HP is
exceptionally future-focused. I daresay she is the most future-focused person I've ever met. She has a few clearly defined long term goals, and she consistently gathers information and produces ideas that are congruent with refining and attaining those goals. In a simpler context, she speaks in future tense, like, A LOT. "I'm going to do ___" "I need to ___" "This weekend I'm ___" "Later this year I want to ___" "We should ___." Obviously everyone does this occasionally. With HP, it is a constant, and much more frequent than any mention of past (she hardly ever reminisces, except in context of a past event reflecting on a future goal, and never in great detail). She also sees symbolism in things I would never consider symbolic and is constantly searching for the meaning behind everything.
-
Fe: HP is highly aware of the emotions of others, and much prefers discussing others' emotional states vs. her own. When her loved ones are troubled,
she is troubled until she's done everything she can to right the situation. She strives to provide a harmonious environment as much as possible. She can be very persuasive, even with people she doesn't know. She consistently seeks impartial outside opinions on emotional matters (I call it "canvassing the neighborhood").
- Ti: HP has a very personal thought process, with little use for rules or hierarchy unless they makes sense to her. She is very independent and needs quiet time when she has things on her mind. She has no aspirations to be anyone's boss, other than her own.
- Se: HP has an interest in artistic media like photography, and is quite skilled in aesthetic arts like makeup and hairstyling. She will occasionally act on impulse and will frequently get distracted when out in the world. Sometimes I'll be talking to her, realize she's not there, and look back to see that she's gotten hopelessly distracted by...something. Idk, a squirrel or whatever.
So there you have it. I don't know much, but I do know
@Happy Phantom is an
