| My question is pertaining to Estps. I believe I am an infj. When I took the test I came out Entj but I do not think that fits me at all considering deep down I am actually very sensitive. I believe in college I was influenced by an estp friend to become more outgoing and assertive because thats how he was. Well growing up my closet friend was an estp and we have always have what i would call a love hate relationship. We enjoyed hanging out together and things like that but I felt like I could not trust him as he always seemed to faced. In high school i was friends with another estp right from the beginning (in college he tested as estp). I think he is a very good person but this relationship was very similiar to the one with the other estp. Towards the end of high school when he achieved popularity he would act different in social settings to impress people and it was weird because i knew that he was not being himself. Maybe I should have known better and this is just a factor of is estpness. Well we have always had an on off friendship as well and Im not sure if it is healthy for either of us. It is as if we just use each other for advancing social purposes. What do you guys think, does anyone else have any similiar relationships with a person with an estp personality type. -- tom |

| A1 I think a well-balanced, mature person (not to imply that you are not - in fact, I think that your post suggests that you are) is able to get along with any other type, even their opposite type. But, since you choose your friends and how much time you spend with them, it sounds like you might be happier finding a wider variety of friends. I haven't experienced the same kind of dynamics with ESTps, usually they pay more attention to me when they realize I think they are funny but they just as quickly move on. At the first office I worked at they had an ESTp who would do stupid things like turn up the volume on the phone ringer at people's desks and call someone randomly and then transfer it to another random person (hello? What do you want? No, you called me!). A lot of it just boils down to finding something you like about everyone. -- econdude |
