ESFP confession

We’re the most flirtatious people that exist. But when we actually like someone, we can’t flirt to save our lives. My best work friend will often tell me “foot in mouth, Mel!” cause I just start spouting out the most random things.

[ask-an-esfp]

Do you ever have random bad moods without reason? Or like you dont feel like yourself?

Oh goodness yes! As ESFPs people expect us to be happy and weird all the time. But hell, we all have bad days. Though we may have our bad moods, we still try not to show it. We know what’s expected of us and we would have to let people down, even strangers we don’t know. When I’m in a bad mood, usually become quiet and don’t know how to talk to people. But darn it to hell that I still have some witty comebacks though they may be a bit meaner than usual. I will feel a bit off when I don’t see friends or lack human contact or if someone new is introduced to my social circle. We’re extroverted but we’re still sensitive at times. Don’t stress yourself when times are hard for you and you can’t act like your usually silly and fun person. You’re human and the less stress you put on yourself for that the easier it’ll be to get back to normal. 😊

Sorry for the lack of quality posts lately. Here’s a funny.

[ask-an-esfp]

This would be an ESFP. Then showing off pictures and videos to everyone around them. Exchanging numbers and planning for the next time we run into each other. 😂

[ask-an-esfp]

Long time no see!

Hey everyone! I have proven the typical ESFP in forgetting something exists! But hello everyone again! Thank you for following me and I’m happy to have every one of you followers. I’ve had a few questions sent to me but they’re rather old, so feel free to send me some new ones and I will respond to these ones that are sadly over a year old. 😂😂 I’ll be doing shame ESFP sharing and fun posts that represent us and our awesomeness!! ❤️ you all!

I am an ESFP, and my husband is an INTJ. He does not like spontaneous spending, but I do (in small amounts). Sometimes I'll just come up to him and tell him "I have a question." (About me buying something) Is this the wrong way to approach the subject with an INTJ? Also, most of the time, I love going places with my husband, but he does not like it because it deals with people. Is there any way I can help him feel more comfortable? Thanks so much, and sorry if I asked weird questions!

So I asked my awesome bff who's an intj what she thinks and this is what she said: "I'm probably not the best to ask for spending since, when I get stressed, my inferior Se kicks in and I'm like "BUY ALL THE SHIT". Most of the time this isn't the case. I'd hate to ask them to have a system set up since that seems a bit... unbalanced for a marriage. If possible, just saying "there's this thing I'd like to buy, I've given it thought" or something might help. Or letting him warm up to the idea. Or striking a compromise where spur of the moment spending is done under a certain amount. Going places:SCHEDULES. Appeal to Te's need for organization. INTJs like schedules. Impulsiveness kills us. It scares us. It makes us face the fact that we are not in 100% control of the world (yet) and we don't like that fact. Schedule when you two leave and for how long. Let him have some downtime to recover. Even fun outings are draining. No matter how much fun I have or the company I'm with, I will spend the entire next day with the energy of a slug and the mood of a wet cat. During the actual outing, I find I prefer sitting places where I can't be surrounded (staying close to walls, aisle seats, etc.)"

Esfp secret

Never tell us not to do something or that we can't l, cause we'll prove you wrong and we'll do it just cause you said not to. Unless you have a valid/good reason or logic to explain yourself. Then we may not because you prove a point. (Which is why those intellectual types like an INTJ make good friends cause they'll tell us not to and prove to us why and we'll probably listen *probably being the key point*)

Esfp confession

We’re the type of people who will step over a cup in the middle of the floor or pick up a dirty spoon from the drawer and put it back. We’re not stupid or lazy, we just forget.

[ask-an-esfp]

Sorry for the latest mega reblogs

Trying to come up with ideas and I saw one where a lot of types are posting about their type in a relationship with other types and it sounded fun. So we'll see how long it takes me to write it.... Wish me luck!

Fairy Tail: Happy (ESFP)

Anime Typing by tgunn64 , Edited by theanimetypist

For ESFPs the dominant quality in their lives is their enthusiastic attention to the outer world of hands-on and real-life experiences. ESFPs are excited by continuous involvement in new activities and new relationships. ESFPs also have a deep concern for people, and they show their caring in warm and pragmatic gestures of helping. ESFPs are typically energetic and adaptable realists, who prefer to experience and accept life rather than to judge or organize it.

Extraverted Sensing (Se): Chief among Happy’s traits is his fixation on his favorite food; fish. He’s almost always thinking about fish, eating fish, giving fish to others, or looking for an excuse to talk about fish—demonstrating how consumed he is by his sensory pleasures. Happy enjoys flying, he clearly gets a rush from physical activity and adventure. Happy is always living in the moment. He’s seldom consumed by the past or potential future. He disregards the ‘maybe’s’ and ‘what if’s of life, what matters is being a Fairy Tail wizard here and now.

Introverted Feeling (Fi): Happy seldom cares how anyone else feels, and can be rather reckless with his words. He rarely takes time to read facial expressions, and more often than not, throws caution to the wind to shoot his mouth off and speak his mind, despite potential consequences. Though he rarely intends malice aside slight teasing, he has a habit for blurting out inconvenient truths. It was he that told Juvia that the alternate Gray from Edolas was in love with her, and one of his favorite jokes is poking fun at potential couples he thinks ‘love each other’. Happy rarely takes situations in an overly serious way. Even in the most stressful situations in which his peers are immensely tense, he’s smiling.

Extraverted Thinking (Te): Happy cares a great deal for signifiers of value. He hates being discounted or forgotten, and wants to be acknowledged as a Fairy Tail wizard and not just a cat. Happy usually acts before thinking, rushing into situations be it in action or in words. He’s unafraid to fight against Phantom Lord with his own special ‘magic’, or stand up for Carla, who was clearly upset by the words of the Exceeds upon their arrival in Edolas.

Introverted Intuition (Ni): Happy is Natsu’s pet (for all intents and purposes) and wants to join him on every journey he takes. Aside from that, very little is on Happy’s mind aside from fish. When he isn’t embarrassing Lucy or trying to impress Carla, Happy only cares about being Natsu’s right hand.

True Story

ESFP: Dude, chill, we've got heaps of time.

INTJ: You always say that, but we don't! We literally never have heaps of time!

Lol this is so true!!!!

[timelez]

ExFPs:

*finally makes the perfect planner (atleast it feels like it is), making them feel like life is finally beautiful and orderly*

*ignores their planner*

‘For fuck’s sake, not again…’

[ask-an-esfp]

Hahaha. Oh god. I can't the number of times I do this. I'll spend hours planning the perfect plan or itinerary and then not use it or maybe use it for a day or two. Then I find it a couple weeks later and I'm like "oh look at this nice plan I made..." *throws it away*

Common obstacles in figuring out your true type

E-MAIL SUBMISSION

I’m pretty sure I’m a thinker, but I hate to upset people or see them upset

Yup. As an auxiliary Te user, this is a daily problem for me. I want to be logical at all times but when it ruffles feathers I often step on logic and preserve harmony instead. Or do I? Most thinkers HATE to deal with drama and emotions from others, therefore, they’ll say or do what others want as to keep things cool THEN they can proceed in dealing with facts. This is especially common with IxTJs because they typically don’t have those “commander” traits found in ExTJs, whom are notorious for bulldozing through emotional plights in favor of results. But ask yourself this question: Am I afraid of upsetting people because I value their feelings and want to be liked? Or is it because it will create drama which is an obstacle that I hate going through? If it’s the latter, you’re probably a thinker.

I’m pretty sure I’m a feeler, but I’m not some emotional mess that acts blindly on how I feel

Feelers seek harmony and appreciation, but when it comes at the expense of logic and rationality, a lot of them will be like “nuh-huh” and therefore may reconsider if they are actually feelers. That’s actually just healthy behavior. “Tough love” much? As a feeler you may be inclined in giving people second chances despite something atrocious they have done, you might also stick to your values despite all opposition, but so long as you keep things in check mentally, you’re good to go. Unlike popular belief, being a feeler doesn’t mean you are intellectually inferior to thinkers. It just means your heart has a strong voice in how you go about your life. That doesn’t necessarily translate in you being naive and denying cold hard facts. 

I’m pretty sure I’m a sensor, but I’m very creative and imaginative.

You know how we say that children are extremely imaginative? Well guess what… we were all kids and obviously not all of us are intuitive. Imagination and creativity is basically using what we see or have seen and then expending on it. We all do it. The difference is that sensors usually start from sensory experience THEN imagine. Whereas intuitives can leap immediately to what is “not there”. A lot of world’s greatest artists are actually sensors, they just built off from concrete experience, whereas intuitive can forego that step. This may make them seem like they have some sort of mental advantage (and perhaps they do), but sensors are more realistic in nature, even in their creative endeavors 

I’m pretty sure I’m an intuitive, but I consider myself realistic and down to earth.

No one ever said that being an intuitive means you are completely disconnected from reality. It just means you are able to see other realities behind reality (if that makes sense). This is why intuitives are often referred to as “idealists” because they seek what is beyond concrete reality, peeking through un-opened doors. But they do initially have to deal with things as they are, which can give them as sense that they are down-to-earth and practical (to begin with…)

Good read if anyone needs any help!

Send me asks and ideas

I need ideas on what to post. So send me asks or something. Lol. Help me!! :)

[ask-an-esfp]

Hi! INFP here. I have an ESFP friend who's really reckless and into drinking and partying and I'm worried about him. My other friends and I want to have an intervention.. What's the best way to get through to him and help him?

Goodness. I wish I had seen this earlier. Makes me sad I don’t go on much. Esfps are a stubborn group of people. We don’t see much beyond our line of sight when we’re being unhealthy and reckless. But we are an emotional group. If you haven’t done it, or still want to, or if anyone is having this same issue, do the intervention because if you don’t, you’ll regret it. Don’t use terms that make the person feel like your judging them. Talk about how they’re actions are affecting you, “when you go out drinking and you end up with some stranger, it makes me worry that your going to end up hurt and it scares me”. Talk about feelings cause we rely so heavily on ours. Don’t expect a response right away, they may think about what you are all saying and will shit down and remain silent. Or they may get angry and yell and say mean things cause they’re hurt. Just give them time, cause they’ll really think about it when they go home.

I hope this helps a bit. Good luck and I’m sorry for not getting this out sooner.
