I love personality tests! As a matter of fact, my personality type messes up internet statistics for percentage of population for Meyers-Briggs because we take them over and over again. I love knowing other people’s personality types – I like to understand people better and know how to relate with them in a way that connects with them. For example, I used to get sad anytime I saw someone eating alone or being alone at all and my little extroverted heart would just hurt for them. I would devise ways to begin including them in everything I did. Now I know that there are people who actually LIKE to do things alone, and probably cringed every time talkative Jeni tried to draw them into excruciating conversations.
One of my favorite things about Meyers/Briggs the first time I took the MBTI my senior year in high school is that it validated my personality for me. I am always encouraged and excited to know more about myself, good and bad. You can take a free, short version of this test at www.humanmetrics.com and get an idea of what your personality type is. Mine is ENFP, by the way. DB is INTJ. If you take the test, or have before – let me know your 4 letters – I love to know these things!Â
