I didn't realize that ENFJ was my "type". I'm not sure what I thought my type was... :)
NetChick on November 8, 2002 02:12 PM

not sure but what the hey...
Brent on November 11, 2002 09:33 PM

Exact match. I am outgoing, extremely intuitive, a teacher and helper type, put myself before others, and am organized and detail oriented.
Jenn on November 20, 2002 09:15 AM

ENFJ--I used to be ESFJ so I suppose it's true to who I am for the most part!
leslee on November 21, 2002 02:53 PM

Definitely an ENFJ, took the test years ago, and not much has changed, looking at the definitions, I think I'm pegged
tj on December 11, 2002 12:18 PM

Hmm..ENFJ...pretty close to me!

Tammy on January 27, 2003 12:07 PM

I like to research (thouroughly), accomplish (top of the field) and move to on (gracefully). I love to encourage others to join in with my challenging pace and together set a high bar of one success after the next. I believe anyone can succeed if they want to. Have Fun! ENFJ
Debbie on February 15, 2003 07:06 AM

I am definitely an extrovert, and I'm always trying to please others, and help them out. I prefer structure and balance in my life. I'm going to be a teacher..I love to help others learn and become successful.
Dawn on March 13, 2003 10:23 AM

Heh, I am studying to be a teacher, what are the odds :)
Fatty on March 16, 2003 09:15 PM

As an ENFJ I have learned why I can be such a double standard, I'm sensitive yet critical. I'm most hard on myself, yet it is hard for me to be that way towards other people. I am definately creative. Vocal performance is my field.
Megan Brand on March 19, 2003 03:54 PM

ENFJ - I've always been outgoing, and have relied on my intuition for all my relationships with others. I've taken another test where I was "ENFP" - but I belive I'm more judging.
Mel on March 22, 2003 05:12 PM

I'm ENFJ inside and out. It's frustrating and a joy all at once to read what various web pages have to say about my type. ENFJs aren't perfect, but it's nice to think so!
Elizabeth on April 1, 2003 03:29 PM

As a stereotypical INTP, I fit almost every description. Often time aloof and scatterbrained, I've been labeled a "space cadet" by more than a few people. I am really a great guy once you get to know me. But as an INTP, getting to know me is virtually impossible as I hardly know myself.

Oh My Gosh! I don´t even know what to say...I really got suprised and amazed!!!!!!...I can´t barely imagine if I could "describe" myself better than this. But I must add that I may be 95% a ENFJ person...the other 5% include my character and my experiences of life, and these things are completely different from any "personality type" and can´t be included in a "closed" definition:)
marcela on September 30, 2003 04:30 PM

I've known I was an ENFJ since I was 12, and that's never changed. Although as I've gotten older, my E has gotten weaker and my J has gotten stronger.

well..i hate to see people down. im always trying to put them on their right track. i really do forget about myself and focus on other people..sometimes to a fault. i just feel that life has been good to me and i want to share with others. i think the profile fits me fine..always saw myself as being more of an introvert..but i think this is a better fit.
Tony on May 13, 2004 02:39 PM

a on May 16, 2004 05:50 PM

I am compelled to care about my people, which could be everyone. I am an outrageous socialist and have a quick wit. I am hypersensitive when it comes to changes in my environment or my current conditions. WE ENJF's aren't perfectionists ENTIRELY, like our INFJ sisters, WE MUST BE EXCELLENT. We EXCEL in what we put our MINDS to. Learning something is so much more worth while when you can "MATER-MIND" what we've learned. Since education is so big for us ENFJ's & INTP's, it's no surprise that ENFJ's are great at seeing what others are paying attention to. We can grab minds out of what they're doing with a insightful and meaningful blurb that is excellently CONSTITUENT with what they were pondering. As ENFJ's, were looking for a INTP mates because they have the potential to complement each other best, because we love people who love to ponder. _INTP women, LOOK NO FURTHER. :)_ Teachers love to come up with critically insightful observations that benevolently change social dynamics. In fact, we SEE things as dynamics; because of our hypersensitivity to change, we begin to view life as an amorphous web of cause and effect. We tap into this "matrix" by the use of our ability to sense the change in functions and predict outcomes; this is known as INTROJECTIVE ESP. (INFJ's can be best at PROJECTIVE ESP.) So my best strength is giving advice to change the dynamics or attitudes that people have with each other. That's enough for now, e-mail me if you want to learn about this subject or anyone; I'll be doing my thesis on temperament and I love sharing. [ latentorganization@yahoo.com ]

Amrita on October 10, 2004 12:14 AM

I am an ISFP, which makes me a composer i guess. What is funny is my b/f is an ENFJ and we are 87% compatable, kinda wierd huh. Anyways, i was researching my type and came by this site and thought id leave a note. Okay im done thanks for listening, Bye
Jo on October 19, 2004 06:47 PM

Very idealistic. Like people, even like public speaking. Love to make a difference. I consider my job a vocation or calling (teaching piano). On the borderline for E/I. Have wavered between jobs working alone and with people. Best one-on-one with people. I used to think I was INFP. But I'm more extraverted as I get older and also more J as I like things to be settled and decided and dislike doing things spur of the moment.
Carolyn on October 29, 2004 08:47 PM

I'm an INFP and i've always been fascinated by your type. Your all so hot!

seokwun on November 26, 2004 12:41 AM

I'm now in my thirties. Having made my way through life to date relying on my intuition and ability to understand and relate to people. I have done many things and really struggled to find happiness. I have great abilities - I can make people happy whilst working as a team we all turn ideas to flesh and deliver the goods. Many of the submissions on this site praise the accuracy - I can add my voice to that. This is something I should have done much earlier. I have taken many such tests over the last few days inc New Year's Eve 2005! How practical eh? Yes I am a definitive ENFJ. Yes there are great aspects to such a personality but there are (like life itself) many downsides. I struggle to release relationships, jobs, etc. I can go into deep depressions - withdrawing from life and people, the very things I need. Then I recover, find a new project and I'm unstoppable, organised and inspirational. I am truly idealistic and loyal. I have often walked into exploitation. I am at a junction in my life where I need to be more aware of my weaknesses and play to my strengths. I MUST stop taking my abilities for granted and stop thinking or saying "everyone can do it" - Everyone can't do it! Though I couldn't help look to see how many people were ENFJ - expecting everyone to be! Obvioulsy it is not a competition and it takes all types to make a world. I'm not going to start fighting for "ENFJ United" everywhere - though if you ask I will check my diary! However, I do feel this foray into personality testing has given me a tool and most importantly a key to begin objectively appraising myself and looking to the future. In my search of "trying to put my finger on it" (ie my problem) I have spent too much time looking at childhood and the past etc. Anyway it's only a small text box so I'll end here. However, in true ENFJ character type I set myself the objective of filling the box and I've filled the box! I'd be happy to hear from any types and wish you all the very best in your lives. It's not always easy but it can be great. OH NOw what next? synapse1@hotmail.com

Everyway, except that I have found as I age - I'm 34 right now - I have become more introverted. I think before doing more than I used to, and I am liking smaller groups better than I used to, but not to the point that it defines me. ENFJ has been right on since 1991.
Sharon Mercer on March 7, 2005 11:49 AM

Well, my type fits me well. I'm extermely ENFJ. Barbrara, the short grouping of attributes definitely does work as well. It boils down to the ENFJ combination being a definite "type" of person, of which there are about sixteen types total. So, you can describe the person that fits the "type" pretty well if you've been able to nail down a few of them. ;-)

rip86 on October 8, 2005 01:04 PM

I often try to deny being an ENFJ, because they will be hurt so easily since they blame themselves for everything and they put themselves before others. But I am definately an ENFJ, no matter what! I was recently hurt by someone I love, I can't stop blaming myself, even though I know I shouldn't. The ENFJ in me is just terrible when these things happen. But I don't think I want to be any other types. I believe in my values.
Ju on October 9, 2005 06:02 AM

ENFJ - exactly me, but sometimes I can be a INFJ as well (like my big sister). Sometimes I find that I far too much into details,organizing - that i have little energy left to TAKE ACTION. I can plan and plan and plan and think and think, but have trouble taking action. I am not sure if other ENFJ feel that way! Oh yes, I tend to get along really well with adults/authority figures...because I am always ready to please & be accomodating as much as possible (even if that puts me under some strain). I am not competitive by nature - I rather watch everyone succeed in there own way. I cannot stand pretenious, overly-competitive, uncaring, selfish folks who rather make life difficult for everyone else. Sometimes I don't understand people's unwillingness to be open (expressive & willing to take a risk in revealing their true selves with fearing that they are being harshly judged/criticized). That confuses me at times. Oh yes, I am currently pursuing my undergraduate degree majoring in sociology - how appropriate for the ENFJ. As I cannot stand the math/sciences.
Amy on November 3, 2005 01:12 AM

I test on the Jung test ENTJ on this ENFJ, not much in it..
Aniel on March 21, 2006 04:12 PM

This is 'so' me. It is uncanny that my essence could be captured and listed so succintly that even I cannot deny it. This helps me to study a subject that I neglect, my own inner heart.
Brette on April 6, 2006 02:53 AM

I am so much an ENFJ that after years of working with children as a preschool teacher i went back to university to get the degrees needed to work with parents on establishing better relationships and then I opened a business, rather, created a career for myself to teach others as a relationship coach for families going through separation or divorce.
Sharon on May 3, 2006 09:26 AM

Julie R. on October 27, 2006 10:10 AM

Im an ENFJ in everyway! well, except for one thing. I was confused when i read that sometimes ENFJ's look down on others that are of lower "status." not true at all. I dont even give myself a status first of all, second i would never want anyone to feel that weren't accepted or that i looked down on them. I try my best to never ever judge and if/when i do, i try to overcome it by getting to know the person and understand them because there is no reason anyone is above or below anyone else. other than that it fit my personality pretty much perfectly :)

I remember taking the test for this book last year. Knowing I'm an ENFJ has helped me to slowdown, not demand results immediately but also not be so set in my ways, keeping an open mind to new ideas. Good stuff!
Chris G. on August 6, 2007 11:23 AM

Many things fit- mosyly I understand that I'm a bit "different" than many other people and need to cut myself "slack" for NOT being so "run of the mill"... :)

I have always wanted a way to make the world better, there is so much hate and distrust in this world. I have always felt a calling to helping anyone that I was capable of helping. I am so hard on myself its is almost like a hate of me. Rarely if ever feeling acceptance, even when people pretty much tell me so... like its not enough. To be honest I really need some feedback from you folks if at all possible. I have been very troubled lately.
Curty on October 3, 2007 03:39 PM

I'm such an ENFJ..I find it uncanny how well the descriptions fit me. I used to be an INFJ until I branched outward a little bit. I appreciated ti part about expecting excellence from myself- I am going through a lot of change right now and the transition is difficult on me.
charityf on October 3, 2007 04:52 PM

This is awesomely accurate! however, i cant choose what i love to do the most for my career.. there are other people to consider... dreams can come later.. i have to fulfill my responsbilities.. i know i might regret it.. but it will turn out good anyway. :)
Maxwin on November 9, 2007 07:03 PM

every single part of the ENFJ descriptions seem to fit me... i admit I'm manipulative torwards others , and I enjoy it. I love to help out but would not say that I put people before everything else. Also would not queite define myself as the teacher type....
slur on December 25, 2007 01:24 AM

I have grown up wondering why I never seem to fit in anywhere no matter what I did. I am really suffering right now.
julie on January 10, 2008 09:54 AM

This is ridiculously acurate! i have always felt that i was able to get along with so many different types of people; the metal lovers, ballet dancers, chavs and none of my groups of friends mix with each other...maybe its that chameleon effect of displaying just the right parts of your personality to fit with who your with. I also am a Psychology Teacher and i have always been renound for encouraging other people! Hope is a wonderful thing!! There are so many oppertunities for us all and you've just got to seize them!! I am proud to be an ENFJ!

Morgan on June 23, 2009 05:01 PM

hey, the definition makes a lot of sense to me now, i spent ages tryin to make someone understand my puppetmastery as i call it, and they said thats just beiong manipulative and i spent ages protesting how that wasnt true and its for there own good, which didnt work well and i couldnt explain it in words, it is fun tho? which i makes me wonder if thats bad? i always keep all groups of friends seperate they would never get along so guess that shows the chamelon effect, like sammyapple i get on with practically anyone with one on one time. it is a nightmare in some work enviroments tho as i get everyones opinions and try to make everyone feel better and listen to everyones complaints about each other which is a little awkward, but hey at least im liked :) i dont think ive ever looked down on so called lower types before tho. the ponly thing i can think of that is similar is i used to hang around with this really shy boy that no one liked in school, i guess to try to encourage him to fit in, after 2 years not much changed and then he said something really shitty to me icant remeber what it was but then the judging side came out i think, and i never spoke to him again lol seems pretty crazy now it was a long time ago. other than that im always planing some grand scheme like travelling which im going to do again after going around the world once, i also lived in several hostels for a few months at a time, and i found being seperated from that collective extremely hard when i got back. im goign into the arts field to do fashion buying.
Jon on August 6, 2009 02:13 PM

Constantly mediate for people who don't ask for it, feel the need to be a buffer zone between people. Complete people's thoughts for them, if only to try and help. Want the things that I do to be enjoyed by others. I love to have the answers that people need...
