Welcome to Gaia! ::

Well in my psyche class lately we've been studying the basics of personality, this means for me that I've taken the gamut of tests to tell me who I am, the only acurate on is based off of the Meyers Briggs test, but isn't quite the in depth test the MB test is.

I've found that I'm an Introverted, INtuiting, Thinking, Percieving person (INTP, there are four sets of letters, you take four short tests and get four letters, your combo gives you your profile etc...) and that the profile I got was quite similar to my own personality and drives.

The one thing it gave me most insight on though was the fact that I'm an introvert, or someone who derives most of their energy from within them selves, the kind of person who might describe themselves as an island, not needing others to complete their goals and make their life work (someone living in their own head might be a less confusing way to explain it). The more I think about it, the more I see the ways it really affects my life on whole, trying to be objective as I can, in my past I've seen the same trends, ie. a few really strong friendships, not speaking alltogether that much outside of that small group, loyalty,

So my question to you all is, are you introverted or extraverted, and does it affect your life on whole?

~If I could find the same test to take online I would, but I can't, there are however plenty of personality tests out there online (most of them bogus though) so it shouldn't be an issue to find one, or a thousand, really it's up to you.

I think I'm an introvert too, and I scored Vivi as well!

I was given that test once and if memory serves I got INFJ and I know that the I stands for introvert and I agree with that 100% I just never really looked into what the rest of it means.

I'm an introvert definitely. That description basically fits me perfectly, especially the few but loyal friends and the island description. Sometimes it's honestly hard for me to ask for help, even though I know that people are willing to give it to me. I just think that I'm being selfish or annoying. I also get kind of impatient with people who ask for help and aren't listening to what I'm saying. That is probably one of my biggest pet peeves ever. That's probably the reason why I don't really want to ask for help. I really don't want to annoy the person that I ask any more that I am. Plus, I'm interrupting what they were doing.

Introvert all the way, it seems...

Actually this is gives me a good idea for a board I could make, though....

im a lil bit of both depending on who im with, if im with friends then im an extrovert no questions but if im not i become an introvert kinda weird but meh... one thing to remember tho is that the tests arent going to be perfect just because you know what the test is measuring and how the questions are worded

im introverted. and "normal" people scare the hell out of me. i have no friends, but i do have aquantinces, lifes too lonely to be without someone to talk to. id say being introveted has made a huge impact on my life because i dont really think i need people as much as i do, so i have a lot of peopple who dislike me cuz the think im snobby or something

I have no clue what I might be. Do I have close friends? Hell no. I haven't cared to be part of a group with people where I live. The majority of people in this town are two-faced, and only your friend when you give them stuff. Well, I do have close friends, but they live in Denver, Colorado(Future home) but I don't get to see them or hardly talk to them on a regular basis. I guess I rely on comfort from my friends, knowing that they're there for me, and i'm there for them.

Introvert or extrovert?
