I don't think this makes you in Intravert - I don't see how Extraversion and dependency on any one individual person are related. I would guess rather that Intravert more often find themselves dependent.
I remember that when I first learned about myself as an Extravert, I put more emphasis on my 'need to talk so I can see what I think' - which I do.
I'd encourage you to write them all down - even if you don't post them, as a way of sharpening that big skill of seeing every side to every statement. That way eventually we all get the benifit of your periscopeic perspective without having to wade through 5 pages. That's my birthday wish anyway.
Enjoy,

The dependency thing was about how we NFPs often find people forming dependencies on us. For me, it has caused me to occasionally be a bit standoffish to avoid running into a problem situation. I don't know how many run into this problem, but a few in my family have.
Interesting to hear about you discovering being an Extravert. Don't know if I started out an Intravert, but being a strong NFP allowed me to overcome any inhibitions holding me back.
So far, I am loving this forum. I have not been on many, but I find this forum is particularly open to people. Here you don't have to establish yourself to be included. I can even get away with my natural communication style without having to translate it like I have often done in the workplace (what I call speaking multiple versions of the same language). I am here to enjoy myself and learn, not work.
Will definitely write down my thoughts. I am really enjoying your analysis on this thread.
Cheers,
Jamie
