Hello!
So no time like the present…
The Myers-Briggs Personality Test; otherwise known as 16 Personality Types.
I first did it several years ago.
It’s very interesting (well, I think so!)
Here is the link…

Im sure I am complex fanny in many ways I m very shy and lacking in confidence but in some situations I can take charge and be very confident I could see where they could get organiser but entertainer, no not at all
I m not too keen on parties that’s one area I am shy in
I don’t have any attributes like singing dancing acting NONE
I don’t do dinner parties or anything remotely like that I live alone so not exactly the life and soul
So how could I entertain ?
I did answer as honestly as possible

this test says INFP, but a more detailed one done for work about 20 years ago had me at INTJ

Interesting how we change.

Fanny the legitimate one?

Greyduster Tue 28-Jun-22 17:18:39

I’m an introverted advocate! I’ve never ever thought of myself as introverted!

BlueSapphire Tue 28-Jun-22 17:01:20

I am an introverted.turbulent architect, no surprise about being introverted!

I’m a Protagonist according to the test. I didn’t have to think about the answers, I don’t know whether it’s good or bad because I give myself a hard time on occasion. . Sometimes I wish I couldn't be bothered and was more laid back.

Thanks for that link Fanny Cornforth It was fun. I'm a mediator too, INFP-T Mostly correct.

lemsip Tue 28-Jun-22 16:43:12

Adventurer, who me, never!

garnet25 Tue 28-Jun-22 16:24:35

Another Defender here

Visgir1 Tue 28-Jun-22 16:22:21

I'm an Entertainer.. Think the rest was quite accurate.

lixy Tue 28-Jun-22 16:22:09

I'm a Defender too - and could recognise myself, warts and all, in the commentary.
Thank you for that FannyCornforth. Hope your recovery continues to go well.

Blinko Tue 28-Jun-22 16:22:07

I'm a Consul. Interesting.

MrsKen33 Tue 28-Jun-22 16:05:43

I’m a Defender .

Urmstongran Tue 28-Jun-22 16:00:54

I’m an Entertainer.
A happy person.

FannyCornforth Tue 28-Jun-22 15:50:36

Thank you for all of your kind wishes!
I’m doing ok thank you; I’ve just been to see the nurse, and apparently my wound is ‘as good as it gets’!

FannyCornforth Tue 28-Jun-22 15:48:27

BlueBelle but you must have answered as an Extrovert; you must be a very complex shy extrovert!

AGAA4 Tue 28-Jun-22 15:41:46

I am an Adventurer. At first I thought not me but as I read through I realised how accurate the description is.

BlueBelle Tue 28-Jun-22 15:40:54

Apparently I m an entertainer…… which I m definitely not
The only answer I gave that resonates with that is I am the organiser if any events or meet ups with friends !! bit I definitely aren’t an entertainer much too shy

Parsley3 Tue 28-Jun-22 15:20:16

This was fun. I am a Defender and I would say that is pretty accurate.
I hope you are making a good recovery, Fanny. Thanks for the link to the test.

A little over twenty years ago I was out of work and I went on a course about starting a business. One morning a lady arrived, told us about the Myers Briggs test, gave us the test, and told us our results privately. In practice we each told the group our scores.

Thinking about it all, after a week or so, I realised that the result of the test was indicating to me that running my own business was not something I was suited to do. That would not have stopped me of itself, but it sort of fitted in as relevant, sort of crystalising the situation, if that is the way to put it.

I have not tried this test yet.

Sweetpeasue Tue 28-Jun-22 14:22:11

And if I had known it was a hip replacement Fanny I would not have previously said I hope you feel better, so soon after it. Husband had 2 and it's not a walk in the park. I'm sure you will notice some improvement over the coming weeks. ?

StarDreamer Tue 28-Jun-22 14:14:41

Hello Fanny

I did not know you had had an op. I would have wished you well earlier had I known.

I wish you well, Fanny
