16 Personalities Reacting to Their Personality Profiles 

Thanks a bunch, the joke captions really increase the enjoyment of the video! 💖

I think its better to put it as the default of every video captions

They always give a new twist to the video I like them

Love those captions!!!

Love the captions for the INFJ.

Same story for me. Tested as INFP several times. Couldn’t relate to it in everything though. Then I started testing as ENFP and couldn’t believe I’m an extrovert even though I could relate to ENFP’s description more. 😄 Besides learning about cognitive functions I also learned what “ambivert” is. 😂

I tested as an INFJ- as soon as I learnt what Ne was- there was no doubt it was me

I think I just had a stroke of good luck because back when I got into MBTI I interacted with people far more than I do now. I typed as an ENFP on every test back then and it made sense from the start, and then the cognitive functions lined up perfectly once I finally checked them out. But now, I don’t often test as an ENFP anymore… in fact, I can’t remember the last time I have. Most tests type me as an INFP, though there is the occasional INFJ or ENFJ. 16personalities is absolutely convinced I’m an INTP, which is hilarious. The biggest compliment I’ve ever gotten was the Truity test typing me as an ENTJ. Such a high point for me, bahahaha. It makes sense that to this day, no test has ever blundered so badly as to call me a Sensing type. Sometimes tests can help. Just sometimes. But cognitive functions are where it’s at. 👏👏 And for anyone else also obsessed with OPS, they made everything more straightforward than a test ever could’ve. Savior Consume and Sleep make my introverted nature as an ENFP make SOOOO much sense, hahaha.

This was the same for me! I was getting INFP for a long time but took it again not too long ago and learned that I was an ENFP. Everything made sense after that! I do enjoy my time alone, but I need to have those connections to keep me going. It’s really interesting how learning more of the functions and details helps you understand yourself a bit better.

Whereas I, also ENFP, tested introvert so often through highschool I didn't trust MBTI for ages, because I was so sure I was an extrovert. 😅 "The most introverted extrovert" is what I've heard of us and I agree. It's just all that feeling and creating I like to alone that makes it look like I don't need people. But no people = existential angst too.

Yes!! ISFP here and that's exactly my main usage for it as well! Extremely helpful, in my case, for learning how to take things less personally and more objectively since I am more enlightened on where people might be coming from. Even if I can't discern their exact type immediately (or ever), I can still identify individual cognitive traits and better identify what the intention behind the actions may be. It also helps me to work better with others and decrease misunderstandings.

@@EresirThe1st Very true and good point! What is your type?

Oh so this is exactly the same for me. My whole journey through types, functions, reddit, yt helped me with understanding theoretical forms of interaction with different types. And using theory in practice may couse my Fe to remind me of a fail till the end of my life but then it's quite developing when you get to recieve positive results of your assumptions

Exactly the same how MBTI helped me!

Yes, the solution is figuring out which cognitive function is called on and practicing it and strengthening it, as applicable

That's so counter intuitive but that's true 😅

_Becky...?_

Haha my ISTP Mom always gets frustrated by the acronyms and impatiently snarks, "L-M-N-O-P, don't know what that means!!" I can totally see her saying this line as well!

@@emilys3638 My guess is she's just stringing the alphabet to signify her impatience with acronymes. OR, Lightspeed Minded Neurotypically Over-Powered.

Agreed 😂😂 Showed my ISTP father instantly.

I don't get it

I've thought the same about being "in TP". I know I can be kind of a piece of shit but :/

exactly, she is really accurate too at the same time

But would you really just accept a solution to a complicated problem from a single source? I know whatever would be stated as "the solution", I'd have a hundred further questions...

@@JackyVSO It would at least be a start... But then again, so is identifying the problem.

It was the opposite for me. I insisted of being an extravert while my friends say otherwise

@@ozgebaran9788 same.

I am ENFP borderline ENTP and I am still confused how I continuously get ENFP OR ENTP on tests because I can spend days alone. I don't think I'm the most ENFP enfp out there if that makes sense 😂.

Bahahhaha yes i really do love spending time alone😂

​@@reececup84yeah same I also get a smidge of intp or infp there

The “4th cognitive function as an angel” vid does some work on solutions; I would welcome one for 7th functions

@@jameswilkerson4412 I LOVED the 4th function video!!!!

Cmon two days totally alone is objectively a long time let’s be real son 🤔

@@hansgruber788 well infps could spend months alone. You are very obviously a very extroverted extrovert if you think two days is long😂

@@raindropsonroses3919 mmmm I‘m Infp but I wouldn‘t want to spend months alone, maybe one week at most

@@freya7799 I have very strong tendency for introversion (always eighty per cent ) on tests. So maybe I’m in the minority but most people drain me. I also work in the public sector so I would prefer to read and watch series on Netflix after work than talk to people 😅 a week is still longer than two days though!

You can turn that argument on it's head by saying „I can spend at least two days together with other people, therefore I have to be an extravert“. 😉 And yeah, even introverts want or need human contact from time to time. But two days alone is nothing. Let's maybe talk again after two weeks or so.

Thank you for sticking around! 😁

my INFP bestie does the opposite!!!!

*15th

INTP - your wrong - it's twelve times a week, i do it purposefully twelve times because i believe dozenal is a better counting system so i do everything in twelves.

Tho i suppose not all INTPs are enthusiastic about dozenal counting specifically - so generally probably most would have a Wikipedia bing ~15 times

@@DND20Finally, someone else that sees the use of dozenal!

@prof.reuniclus21 I see you're a wo/man of culture as well!

Yes! I saw myself in all of those aswell. (INTJ)

"Superiority, thy name is me."😁 Ooooh, we INTJs love a good roast...even if we are the ones dangling over the flames. (I also love the reference...let's be Shakespeare friends!😁)

​@@sydneycarton4106helloo

*laughs in INTJ*

@@angelinap.3840 *also laughs in INTJ* On a more serious note, remember that a lot of the famous people/characters with your type never took the test and people are just guessing their type based off of their actions. I will continue to believe that Jayfeather from Warrior Cats is an INTJ though because I love him and everything he's ever done, despite the fact that as a fictional cat from a book we will never know his true type. Anyway, if you ever want a laugh try googling your personality type and looking at predictive searches, for example "Are INTJs..." yields the predictive searches of "Are INTJs manipulative? Are INTJs Evil? Are INTJs lazy?"

​@@Tagtot based off their actions? Cognitive functions to be more accurate actually.

And then "oh, now I think I get the difference between Te and Ti, it's a bit like Sumerian and Akkadian".

@@glueball214 Thanks!

I didn’t think the adventurous part fit me until my friends listed multiple very specific examples. Apparently what other people see as “adventurous” was just a good idea to me 🤷🏾‍♀️

Yay! I'm glad it brought you joy after your day

If it's "no longer" the rarest personality type, it never actually was, it's not like they've tested everyone on the globe. I know they can make an educated guess, but they don't know for sure which is the rarest, and as an ESTJ I don't understand why it would matter anyway.

​@@sarahberkneryou sound like estj

Can you 2 kids stop this rambling about being the rarest. It make 0 difference in your reality whether this is true or false. Thats food for ego..you should starve ego not feed it junkfood

Ayyyy, ENFP 4 here, totally relate! Ne is more of a gathering function, so I find it can be energized by reading or watching videos or even just entertaining mental possibilities for ages. I personally go days or, if possible, weeks without spending time with friends because I get so caught up in my alone time. It’s not even that I don’t love them - I do, and I’m the most extroverted, gregarious person ever when they’re around. But the moment they’re gone, that switch gets flipped, and I enjoy every single second of reflecting and brainstorming and contemplating life and talking to myself and starting new projects on a whim. I couldn’t answer for you how long it takes for me to crave socialization again because I can’t remember the last time it’s happened. Heck, it’s even to the point that sometimes INTROVERT friends I’ve adopted text me and ask to call and chat. And I’m like, pardon, but are you human?? You’re giving up your precious alone time?? What for?? I thought YOU were the introverted one!! 😭 Then I wonder if I’m weird for never calling people.

@@sophiaredwood5825 Im 4w5 ENFP and I relate way too much lmao. I feel like the extroverted part comes from us hating silence when there is people around. Like what are you doiiinng lets taaaalk I wanna share my ideass wdym you won't listen to me exploring ideas about the purpose of life for 3 hours straightt

@@sophiaredwood5825 you described it perfectly. It’s not easy to explain for me, I love connections and hanging out but I also enjoy my alone time to breathe and figure things out or just create new things. I’m a 4w5 and this about sums it up!

Because you are ambiverts

I literally say it's like flipping a switch for me. Like all the time! I do crave gathering data and talk about how much I love researching things that interest me. Then all of a sudden after being alone for a while, especially if I don't talk to anyone on the phone during that time I Crave social interaction. I call it getting itchy. I had a week off recently and almost th whole time I was doing something social and I thought huh I really miss being social when I don't get too and look how much fun I'm having 😄. I don't know where I was going with that lol.

Thank you! 🧡 Glad the video made you laugh

I can feel my intj brain urging me to find a way to help the infp

Look for the magic in life, I lay Tarot cards and believe in the law of attraction, it made my life better but inside my head I still have my existencial crisis (INFP). Some people acused me of being bipolar....no I'm just INFP

so accurate

Well you are definitely and INTJ, that's for sure lmao

In my (skewed) opinion, being overly criticaal means someone always focuses only on the negative points of something. When troubleshooting, this is not an issue, but when it comes to people... Also, what is "perfection" is, most of the times, subjective. So if you compare someone to your own subjective standards, this is basically error propagation. (Obligatory "Sorry for any english mistakes")

In my opinion sometimes people give criticism where it's not necessary - not everyone needs to hear criticism when something is wrong, often they know, and I find encouragement and support better in most cases. Of course there's a time and place for criticism but to me, "overly" critical means not knowing when the time and place is

The problem is often in timing - just because you can doesn’t always mean you should. If you see room for improvement - which it always is everywhere, in me, in you, in others - wait for an appropriate time to step in. People react better if they’re in a good mood and not in a stressful situation. It can be the difference between adding fuel to the fire or putting it out with water (or harnessing its power for good).

I've spent the better part of my 33 years assuming that most people processed information and made decisions in a similar way to me (an INTP), but the reason why the decisions they arrived at when faced with the same information as me was different because of the cognitive biases they developed from their life story as well as hormonal, cultural and other random circumstantial factors. I can't say I'm 100% convinced that I've been so terribly wrong all this time, but the MBTI has given me a lot of food for thought and filled me with intrigue about how other people's minds really work. As I grow older, I just learn new protocols for new social situations and refine them over time rather than seeking general principles that apply to every situation.

That could be because ENTJ as a type are known to possess very little knowledge of who they are... so... might they mistakenly see all possible traits in themselves then?

@@sylvia470 no, not even what I'm talking about.

It's okay. Let the Fi out. We're here for you.

Exactly! - enfp

I'm also an infj, and that is so relatable.

This is success to me.

@@dearkristin Not only for you. This *is* success.

@@Heliorhodonite 😂👏

Haha, sounds like a standard ISTP response, alright! 😉

I'm so sorry but we also know I'm not sorry

They don't actually know what percentage of people are each Myers Briggs type, it's not like the amount of INFJs has suddenly increased.

Yes! It breeds boundless confusion. I've taken to using the terms "outgoing" vs. "reserved" when speaking of social presentation, and "external" vs. "internal" when referring to cognitive functions. I've found it gets the point across better than the commonly-used terminology. Examples: I am an outgoing introvert and my sister is a reserved extrovert. But we are both sure of the accuracy of our types. My dad is an extremely reserved introvert and my mom a very outgoing introvert, etc. And when in conversation, I'll say "External Sensing" for Se, and "Internal Intuition" for Ni, to give a couple examples. I know it's not "proper", but it communicates the concepts better in my experience, and isn't clarifying our mental processes the whole point of MBTI? So I agree with what you've said.

@@emilys3638 Ooh I really like that, I think that using internal and external is a more accurate representation of what functions really are. I might just start using it. Thanks Emily. And I do something similar with the reserved and outgoing, but I use the word sociable instead. But they do mean different things, so it is a different categorization. But thank you Emily! you have given me a lot of food for thought.

@@farrex0 You're welcome! I'm glad. It's brought a lot of clarity for myself, as well as others that I talk about this with. I also think the trouble with the stereotype of "extroverts are social and introverts are antisocial" is that it's not true for most of us!! I would never consider myself antisocial, and was labeled am extrovert my entire life as a result, but I am absolutely an introvert when it comes down to the science of when I drain and when I recharge. And I don't "hate people" nor even the occasional party, I just can't go socializing for days on end with no break. And even some of my reserved introverted friends are surprisingly hungry for social opportunities. So using these alternate terms to delineate the differences seems to really paint the picture in more accurate colors that more people can understand and relate to. It's really great to have these discussions with people like you who have noticed the discrepancies between these terms and are trying to come up with better ways to label it.

@@emilys3638 Absolutely, there is a lot more nuance than the false dichotomy most people use of introvert vs extrovert. Even with the ambivert clasification, is not enough. Of course it would depend from person to person, but a lot more understanding on these topics would help a lot. I too am pretty similar to you, I am socially an extrovert, in terms that I enjoy going out, talking and meeting new people. But I too get drained and need time for myself. That is why I describe myself as an ambivert. I wouldn't say I am outgoing, because I am quite chill, but I am very sociable and can befriend almost anyone. I can be somewhat reserved someitmes, because I like to truly think things through, but to some people i can share a lot and be truly an open book. One of my all time favorite things to do, is have profound conversations. Specially with people like you, who seem not only to be quite inteligent but a profound thinker, as well. It is truly a shame people like you are quite rare. So I too am enjoying a lot talking to you. If I were to meet you irl, I would have certainly befriended you.

@@farrex0 Absolutely, you've summed it up quite well and I can relate to a lot of that. (Socially, I'm predominantly a one-on-one person. In large groups of acquaintances I'm pretty reserved, but with those I know well, I'm not too chill at all, haha..) I actually think one of my brothers is an ENTP and the other is an INTP, so it's pretty fascinating to compare two similar types and see the differences. On the scale of outgoing to reserved they are actually quite similar, but I can definitely see the ENTP brother being more externally focused in exploring ideas (Ne) which he then organizes through Ti, whereas the INTP brother filters his ideas through Ti first and Ne second, and you could ask him about virtually any topic and he'll be able to provide at least a cursory amount of data. But the real telling point is the tertiary and inferior functions: my INTP brother is much more orderly and organized (using Si in favor of Fe) whereas the ENTP one definitely prioritizes Fe and doesn't typically stay organized or adhere to systems until he's under stress. I could be wrong in these assessments but this is what I've observed. But yes, they both express themselves moderately in social settings, neither reclusive nor particularly boisterous. The mischief, though.... They definitely are in cahoots and team up against us in that regard!! 😂 It's entertaining once you get them going! Also, the ENTP brother is more likely to present an idea that he's still actively exploring but maybe hasn't claimed for his own beliefs yet, whereas the INTP one is less likely to present any concepts that he hasn't first run through his Ti filter of "does this make sense". My sisters are ISFJ and ESTP so there's a lot of fun contrast there. And then I'm ISFP (the only Fi-user in the family as far as I can tell, haha!) But I digress... Well thank you! I actually quite enjoy profound conversations myself (I know, a surprising thing to hear from a Sensor, but I really love to go deep and get to the real heart and meaning of things! It's probably my tertiary Ni. My friend and I like to call the tertiary function your "pet of pride" because you have the most potential to develop it and see tangible and significant improvement over time, so one tends to be proud of their use of that function even though it's not used at the high-level skill of the dominant and secondary functions.) I'm also married to an INFJ, and have several close N-type friends, so that's probably been a big influence on my appreciation for theoretical topics and deep conversations. I'm definitely still an S-type (deeply observant and engaged in the physical world -- the Se is strong with this one!), but in conversation I enjoy getting people to open up about their true interests, and dive into deep and complex topics rather than skimming along with small-talk. I definitely agree we would be friends if we met in person. 😊

The internet is pretty much natural habitat of INxx types.

Oh it absolutely is 🤣
