Do ESTp's tend to have emotions that can change easily? And can they be strong emotions? How should ENtp's deal with this? -- Katie |

A1 Well...I would suggest, if I had something I needed done, and I didn't think anyone could do it, I would find an ESTp who would be aggravated about it and tell them that a) it's not getting done and b) there's a handsome reward for you if you find a way to do it. Maybe that's an overcomplicated example...I just try to stay out of the way when ESTps get irritated. I think Slash said it best about Axl Rose (I believe Axl is ESTp) - once Axl makes up his mind about something, he does it no matter what. The key with anyone is to choose your battles, no one of any type should be able to do something improper or illegal with impunity but you might find yourself wasting a lot of energy trying to force an ESTp to see things your way. BTW, I think a lot of people of different types, not just some ESTps, are obstinate, but I would say that ESTps tend to have a certain way of dealing with frustrations. -- econdude |
A2 As a female ESTP, I would say that emotions can change, not easily though. It may seem to the outsider that an ESTP's emotions are strong and change easily, but this is just a result of their own misunderstanding of what they are feeling. Often times I don't know what I'm feeling about something, and as I start to figure out what it is, my emotions reflect this discovery. My best advice is be patient and let us figure out our emotions, unless you can help us without making us feel in despair because we don't know what we are feeling. If you are talking about having opinions, well, if you present a logical, no nonsense solution answer, the ESTP can't help but to accept your opinion/solution. But if some buttons are pushed I tend still stand my ground in the moment, and over time I'll show someone that my mind has been changed. -- Anonymous |
