INTP here asking about my Inf Fe

Hey guys, I noticed that when I take care of someone, I try to give them the best comfortable experience ... like, for example, if we had a 1 hour break... I will set everything according to the time so that throughout that 1 hour, we enjoyed and that we are comfortable enough to get back into the workspace ... and I consider their comfort first when in the workspace... and I try to make things a little easier for them... is this an ESFJ thing, or might it just be an INTP or just my way of performing from my Inferior FE function?

Soy ESFJ y quiero ser INTJ (pd: soy una ex-INTJ y quiero volver a serlo)

No se, odio ser ESFJ. Estoy segura de que lo soy porque me guiΓ© no solo de los test, sino tambiΓ©n de mi autoconocimiento y dicernimiento, ademΓ‘s de la ayuda y criterio de mis hermanas (personas en quienes mΓ‘s confΓ­o... pd: son INTP y INFJ).

En verdad, no es que sea malo ser ESFJ, no me malinterpreten, pero... no se, siento que es antipersonaje para mi, sin embargo es lo que soy hoy. No lo acepto.

Yo considero que todo el mundo deberΓ­a aspirar a la excelencia desde su punto de vista y para mΓ­ parte de alcanzar la excelencia serΓ­a volver a ser INTJ.

DATO CURIOSO: Lo que me hizo cambiar fue una depresiΓ³n crΓ³nica con intentos que tuve hace mΓ‘s de un aΓ±o ya... fue como que me cambiΓ© a GuasΓ³n... era perfeccionista, cerrada y feliz... ahora me dicen que mi abuelo se muriΓ³ y antes de llorar me rio (es anΓ©cdota...abuelito descansa en paz)

DATO MÁS CURIOSO AÚN: La depresión fue un síntoma del TLP que despertó en mí durante la adolescencia... soy una red flag andante... así cualquiera acaba con su vida...

The Fe function seeks to understand the organizational principles of collectives, percieving relationships as a network of transactions and implicit social contracts, constantly being negotiated. It sees humans has having a malleable character, shaped by these interactions for better or worse, and aims to move itself and the collective towards ideal mind-heart states by optimizing interactions.

Hello my fellow ESFJs! :) Just curious, if your friends broke your trust, would you still be willing to give them another chance?

An ESFJ friend of mine and I were talking, and she said it's really hard for her to trust her friends now because they broke her trust. She wants to give them a second chance, but she can't bring herself to trust them anymore because they abandoned her at one of the darkest points in her life. They've apologized and all that, but she still doesn't believe that they will stay with her if the going gets rough again. She's a super loyal person, and it takes a lot for her to open up and trust other people. So this is super hard for her. What would you do in her situation?

Do you get Jealous often?

I was just wondering if you guys get jealous of things, even little things. One example of that is because I like to work out, but when I see other people do as good as me or better I tend to get jealous because the feeling of because they're at my level, i'm not good enough. It can tend to be problematic sometimes because I sometimes feel like I need validation so I go to find things so I feel validated. I'm trying to work on it and would like to know your experience with jealousy and any tips you may have to help with it.

Made an app to chat with MBTI personalities (with warm ESFJ energy!)

Hey ESFJs!

I wanted to share something that I think will resonate with your love of bringing people together - an app where you can have heartfelt conversations with characters representing all 16 MBTI types! I put special care into capturing the ESFJ's warm Fe-Si way of creating comfortable and welcoming interactions.

Each personality type has both male and female versions (32 total), and I really focused on making the ESFJ characters reflect that wonderful gift you have for making everyone feel included and cared for in conversations.

You can experience it here: www[dot]stablecharacter[dot]com

I'd love to hear your caring perspective on how the characters feel, especially the ESFJ ones. Do they capture that natural warmth and ability to create harmony that makes ESFJs such wonderful people connectors?

What are your thoughts on ENTJs?

Not an esfj or an entj. I'm just genuinely curious what your experiences with ENTJs have been like since you'd have complete opposite functions.

Fe-Si-Ne-Ti (ESFJ)

Te-Ni-Se-Fi (ENTJ)

I've only ever seen ENTJs thoughts on ESFJs but NEVER the other way around.

Singing

I often times sing when I'm listening to music in the car, on spotify, or just whenever. I honestly sing so much my voice gets tired often. I was just curious if any of you get that or just enjoy singing in general. I don't take lessons or anything, but I do enjoy it.

this sounds dumb, but i hate being an esfj.

i'm a very introverted ESFJ, I'm still cognitively extraverted but I don't relate to ESFJ stereotypes at all. actually, the ESFJ/ESFP stereotypes were the kind of people I always got bullied by.

It makes me feel shitty- I've always been "deep", wise, curious, intuitive in the conventional sense. i also value being unique a whole lot. knowing that i'm associated with a type that is stereotyped as shallow, needy, basic, common just makes me feel bad about myself. i know i'm taking it too personally but i just hate it. i don't want to be perceived as a boring, safe, mindless tradwife.

What’s the most rewarding way you’ve built up a community?

Im interested in hearing about how you may foster connection and build communities. What's something you've done to create a sense of belonging or harmony among a group of people? How did it come together, and what made it meaningful?

This is a struggle for me as it doesn’t come naturally to me and requires sacrificing parts of myself to be what each person needs. Is this the same for you or does it come naturally? How do you not get exhausted or lose yourself in the process of being the β€œglue” in a sense? It tears me apart trying to be what everyone needs
