    Yet I must admit that I will sometimes make my complaints known .. very known at times so this part Introverts don't outwardly complain, instead roll their eyes and silently curse the darkness isn't exactly true for me.
    On the contrary, what you've just said is a normal introvert statement and description of introverts. When introverts do complain, it can commonly be of the explosive type. They bottle it up as long as they can, but if someone goes too far, the introvert cannot contain themselves any longer and they blow. Extroverts are usually taken back by this and think the introvert has greatly over-reacted. The extroverts not realizing that the explosion has been building up for some time. Extroverts don't explode in the same way that introverts do as extroverts vent their emotions as they feel them. Extroverts are also then confused by the just-exploded introvert wanting to shrink away after their outburst and, if the introvert is female, in tears. Emotional outbursts for extroverts bring them back to a balance in their emotions. Emotional outbursts for introverts mentally drains them and shakes up their inner balance. After an emotional explosion by an introvert, the best thing an extrovert can do is just remain silent until the introvert speaks again. Unfortunately, extroverts tend to think everyone thinks like them and thus want to "talk it out" with the introverts which usually only upsets the introvert more as they're not being given time to repair the internal damage their outburst has caused them.

    Fortunately, articles like the one posted by Susan are helping to us better understand each other and thus better get along. If everyone at your strip club were to take the test and then discuss it, your work environment would very likely improve and even become more profitable as your fellow co-workers better understand how each other works.

    try astrology. It's much more accurate than a psyche test. Psych takes only the logical part of a personality in account. Astrology tells the whole story. BTW, Jung was an Astrologer, he knew about the "archetype" personalities as described by the zodiac.

    And there's actually lots of fun things you can learn from this. Like to know who would make a good mate (personality-wise) for you? Where you can find them? How best to approach them?

    Like to know if your club manager has a good personality for being a manager? Like to better understand your co-workers?

    Like to better understand your family? Like to understand why you dancing is cool with one family member and not with another?

    Got a friend that's depressed? Like to know do's and don'ts for helping them based on their personality?

    Lots of fun and enlightening stuff ... and all based on scientific research and verified by other researchers.

    so do I go back to the test site to find who would be good for me personality wise? My b/f is pretty much opposite me: I'm ultra sensitive, teary eyed, empathetic and he's...not. We figure we even each other out while learning from the other. Or maybe we're just fooling ourselves...

    You could do that. It would cost you $4, I guess. I can give you better advice since you can communicate with me.

    What you would need to do is find out what your bf's personality type is. If he's reluctant to take the test, you could probably take the test and guess how he'd answer it and be pretty much on the mark. Not laser-like precision, but probably adequate. Then you could post it here and I can give you my spin on your compatibility. Or, if you'd rather not have it be a public topic, feel free to email me the information and we can correspond that way.

    As for him being opposite of you, by Jungian theory, that's actually good. You make up for each other's short-comings. However, it does mean you understand them less ... but that's where learning about personality types comes in and helps out.

    It is based on the theory that there are different ways of perceiving and dealing with our thoughts and external world. That there are four key areas in where this is done. How we deal with each of these areas is one of two ways. The two ways oppose each other. The test identifies what "way" you approach these four areas.

    E/I deals with how you deal with others.

    N/S deals with how "here and now" you are.

    T/F is how much you allow emotion to influence your decisions.

    P/J is how you like to make your decisions.

    When you do the math, you find that there are then sixteen different personality types. The test helps you pinpoint which of these sixteen types you most likely are. However, sometimes you use both ways with one or more of the four areas ... as you, Seraya, pretty much do on the P/J point.

    However, the four different ways you operate affect each other. They're not separate from each other but influence how each works. Research has shown how each of the sixteen types work. How each type's four ways blend together and make who you are.

    How's that? If you have other questions, fire away and I'll see if I can answer them.

    The numbers indicate how strong you are in that one personality type. The lower the number, the more ... by Jungian theory ... balanced you are. Jungians consider a balanced personality to be a good thing and something one should evolve to as one matures. What this means is that you will find more of your personality in the opposite type as well. For you, it means that you should read the description of ENFJ and even INTJ and ENTJ. One of those might be closer to your true personality type.

    Your score means you're pretty balanced on the whole. By Jungian theory, that's a good thing, the goal that people should strive for, and what you mature into over the years. You could pretty much read any of the sixteen personality types and find yourself in some part in each of them and could easily claim to be most of them (though you'd likely say this more about the eight T personality types). You'll likely find yourself more in the one above (my personality type, but, unlike you, I'm at the extreme of each one of the four), but don't be surprised if you find it only partially "true". If a Jungian were to read this, they'd pat you on your back and compliment you on being balanced.

    Edit: In my original reply, I had said "...eight F personality types" and not "T". It should have been "...eight T personality types".

    Read the personality type for this one and also all N (intuitive) personality types. You're pretty balanced on three points and have a strong point which these all pivot on. The types usually explain more about who you are. Using research based off of studies of your type, you can learn more about why and how your react to things, intrepret other personality types, how you can better deal with them, what careers is your type most found in (and likely to get the most enjoyment of out), and a whole list of things.

    First, your first sentences are almost prototype answers one would expect from an NP.

    As for what it means, read the description for this type. You might want to read also the description for ISFP and to an lesser extent, ENFP and ESFP. See my reply to Flounder for more about what this all means.

    If you have any specific questions, fire away and I'll try to answer them.

    Basically, P/J has to do with how and when you make judgements. A "J" likes making judgements early, is willing to accept that it won't be perfect (and is willing to settle for good), and loves moving onto the next thing on the agenda. A "P" wants all possible information before making a decision and will wait until the last moment just in case new information comes to light that might make a different decision better. And being an ENFP, you'd drive an accountant (ISTJ) insane. On the bright side, if you found a mate that was an ISTJ, you'd find a safe harbor in them and they'd find the thrill of living in you. Opposites tend to compliment each other in Jungian theory.
