    Ah, strange and interesting, yes. And I can think of no better way of getting to know you all than to learn your personality types. smile However, it's a bit disturbing that there's such a large group of Masterminds...

    It is a little weird that there are so many of us, isn't it?

    Debbie-

    I'm also a 1% extrovert and ENFJ. Our club is small, but growing!

    BTW, my DH--an engineer, remember--just took the test and he's INTJ, but significantly less INTJ than I am. In fact, he's only 1% T and 11% J.

    I find it amusing that I'm more "engineer-y" than my engineer DH. When all his engineer friends are griping about how emotional their wives are, he jokes that he wishes I were more sensitive to his feelings...

    ...and they usually throw something at him as he cackles with glee. LOL!

    DH certainly appreciates how I am, which is probably why we're so happily married! laugh

    I'm sure my DH would say the same thing! LOL!!! I need to have him take the test.

    I'm not quite Spock like but I do dislike rampant emotionalism. smile

    Hi Ann,Kim and Neato,
    INFJ here too! Can we have out own empathic club! We don't even have to meet we can just sit around and sense how each other feels!

    I had like 2 minutes to catch up on this discussion, so if I missed another INFJ it was by accident. Come empath with us!

    acs - I was wondering where you were! I wonder what your DS would be? Mine is of course the exact opposite of me. He's a ESFP. Maybe that explains all the disorganization! smile

    The website says that INFJs and INTJs are the companions ("similar modes of expression: bear each other's company well") for one another.

    I guess we're in the right place. smile

    Oh, and BTW, you guys are the "Counselors," and the site highlights Ghandi as "your kinda guy" because of the "overwhelming force of character" that he possessed.

    None too shabby!

    According to the site, he's your Anima, which means "fits Dr. Beebe's description of the anima/anumus: each is the other's inferior (4th) function."

    Um, whatever THAT means! Anyone follow that and care to translate?
