Thanks to my Mastermind INTJ best friend for introducing me into the
world of personality types, I'm now more obsessed with them than he is.
Literally,
the past week has been spent collecting data on everyone I know and
making them take the test, as well as taking it as them. Surprisingly
(or not), I was pretty accurate in determining their personality types
when I took it as them. I'm
convinced this is the only way I can understand people
who don't use the same "functions" (aka thinking) as I do.
I'm
an "ENTJ" (every fictional character is a villain) and supposedly my
"major drawback" is failing to see from others' POVs and understanding
others' feelings. Therefore, I'm turning to a system
which categorizes personalities in order to understand them. So far,
it's been "insightful".
Someone recently said/laughed to
me, "You have to put effort in to care about people? For most people
it comes naturally..." in a condescending /sarcastic/annoying tone.
However, they were an F (Feeler). I am a T (Thinker).
And I do care naturally... "in my own way". Maybe not in a way that a Feeler would understand.
Anyways this isn't about
caring. It's about understanding. I'm tired of not understanding people
who I think are dumb (I'm so mean).
I probably "have something to learn from them", in a really abstract way.
