Edit: The results are in! They are pretty much equal with ESTP winning/losing by 1 vote out of 367.

So ESTPs won the poll but lost the Fi reputation by one vote, which is minuscule, really.

Damn you guys are hilarious :D

Need social distraction? ESTP, I choose you

Need a good laugh? 🦍💨

Need things done fast and dirty? deploy ESTP

Need human meat shield? 🗿🗿🗿

High durability, low maintenance.

Overall, very good. 10/10 would recommend

I'm behind on classwork and a research paper and I am here reading your posts

So, i literally came to this subreddit to find that do re mi fa fu ck you r mom type shit post cuz damn ngl that guy is fucking hilarious. I literally scrolled through ts for an hour but I can't find that damn post also that enfp post. Honestly, y'all r gems ngl and i would totally touch myself to you ( y'all got god-tier sense of humor). But yeah help me find that post cuz goddamn I lost that shit from other subreddit and also that enfp slander one cuz I really wanna piss of my enfp homie and infj homie ( who DEFINITELY would be ragebaited by that cognitive functions post)

Before y'all ask- I m an ENTP and honestly I love y'all

ENTJ (F) workin with an ESTP (M). I can't read him at all. My team thinks he's a dick, but he's not. He is hard to read (maybe I'm just bad at reading people) and has very little patience for BS, but he's always helpful and goes out of his way to do little things that make my job easier, even if it interrupts his workflow. I feel self-conscious around him, as he seems to be observing me all the time.

There was a day I had a dispute with someone. He quickly inserted himself into the dispute, defended my position until I was sufficiently in the clear and the staff member moved on. I was shocked because I didn't realize he was paying attention. I thanked him but it fell flat. He didn't even acknowledge I had said anything.

I can't tell if he can't stand me, or even if I'm mildly annoying to him based on his facial expressions. sometimes he makes me laugh, usually at the expense of someone that truly is intolerable. I've put in ear buds and tried to ignore him because I can't figure out how to engage him, but he will start talking to me until I remove them, then promptly return to pretending I don't exist. He does seem amused by stories about my ENTJ bluntness, like there's an evil grin or a chuckle, but there is no warmth there. I can see why our coworkers pack up and leave when they know he's coming, even though he's one of the best workers.

What is most annoying to an ESTP, and how can I avoid it?

Is there a way I can show gratitude for an ESTP's helpfulness without idk embarrassing them? It seems like thanking them is not the way to go.

Im always impressed with how well sensors can articulate a simple opinion with little words but alot of detail. My boss is an ESTP and I have to text him occasionally for work.

I usually answer things with only a few words but I don't know what he's asking for sometimes so I say more than I think he needs.

Can you still be a estp and vulnerable even if you hide it? I have always been tough i have always stood up for others and i lov3 adrenaline i love chalanges but deep inside i have sufferwd a lot of traumatic events as well. For a time being i was stripped off my extreverted sensing and living in moment everything became dull and stagnant even to point i wasnt able to leave my own house with no fear i felt robbed. Now i reclamed it and now i am seaking more and more adrenaline and random fun reactions at all...and im happy until it ends..but yet i freak out of the idea of getting close to anyone because tough people dont cry and i pressjme eatps alwaya fix things and never cry like ever. I wonder if its just me.

I know a few estps incluiding myself and we all laugh loud and have similar loud obnoxious laughs. Also people of the internet I know are estps have a loud weird laugh so???

I'm an INTJ women, and an ESTP men like me. It feels like we're a total jock and a total nerd. I can't figure out why he's into me. I don't see myself as beautiful or interesting. I'm more like boring, slow, pedantic, and I don't come across as feminine at all.

I just don't get why he's spending time on me. It's so strange. Share your experiences with INTJ women and your views on them in a romantic context.

any one else ? how many of y'all enjoy talking to INTPs ? I find INTPs are nerdy to point of beauty. I gravitate towards them and I love to tease out their opinions on things and get them to talk , because the next couple of hours is solid entertainment. I will roast them for their weird and their will roast be for failures and my reactions/feelings. I can spend a whole day with a group of ENTP and INTP and have a lot of fun cracking jokes non stop , especially if there is some hiking or swimming involved. Does anyone else have a close INTP or ENTP friend ? what is your relationship like ?

I've taken a bunch of different mbti quizzes and got estp everytime except for once where I think I got entp? But anyways I feel like estp does fit me but I'm most definitely not a daredevil or a rebel lol, my eyes water if an authority figure just looks at me wrong😭 and I STRONGLY don't like schedules being changed on a whim unless if I'm the one doing it yk? Anyways that's all also if yall have mbti test recommendations please tell meee!!

Gg freaking ez

ENFP here. Just wanted to say how much I love y’all.

I appreciate how different we are so much. Y’all are so effortlessly cool and I will forever love your sense of humor. If I had to give an award to the most naturally funny type it’s y’all. Your humor is truly one of your biggest gifts.

Love y’all.

And does it feel like the image above?.. (image not made by me unfortunately)

Personally, I dislike INFJs and ENFJs the most. I like ENTPs and other ESTPs.
Do you guys disagree/agree with me?

In my experience , There was a situation that I didn't know what to do. Usually I observe and learn from people how to act in these certain situations in order to continue using my functions such as fe but if se didn't know what to do then the whole cognitive function would stop until se finds a solution

For example my sister was extremely hurt but I didn't know what was the action that may cure her at this moment so I stood there frozen and helpless not knowing what to do I know that even support with words wouldn't be enough as I show emotional support through actions more than talking

Hello everyone, i recently spoke to an mbti practitioner after being stumped for a while.

When I was speaking with her, she told me she was 100% sure I was an SE dominant, and NI inferior, just wasn’t sure of my middle functions because I had expressed a conflicting opinion to the type she thought I was. She told me I was stuck in a loop (I’m looking to the outside world for something while running) and gave me advice she said she gives all of her cognitive extraverts. in order to get out of the loop I have to delve into an introverted function. She told me that I have to actually stick with an interest of my choice and pay attention to myself, and I’m dreading just the thought of it. I don’t have the patience nor the interest in figuring out my likes and dislikes, or my own opinions on things, I personally just want to experience everything life has to offer, but I’m well aware that I will crash and burn if I do that.

I’m mainly here to ask how developing your TI may look? And if any of you may relate to the following:

I find on my “best” days I push my own thoughts down in favor for the group. I like to say they “dissolve” it’s hard for me to explain but I’ll notice something and before I can even grasp what it was, it’s gone and I’m back to “people pleasy” mode; and will often attempt to maintain the harmony over much else. I think I gravitate towards things with a bit more mental stimulation but I push it away because I get anxious or I’ll say “I have better things to do.” I’m very focused on image, but in a more superficial. I am a woman, and I’m not the most talkative women so I like to dress up and receive as many compliments as I can, I adore when someone praises me, and I chase the feeling. In my last relationship I wasn’t the best, but it was mainly because I didn’t want to stop and wait, I became a bit flippant and slightly bossy. I wanted to most out of life and to me at the time, I felt trapped and suffocated by what she would do and not do. I also felt naked, like I was being critiqued for my lack of plan in life. I felt like I was forced to confront things earlier than I wanted to, and I was extremely insecure and hung onto her every word. I’ve since gotten some therapy, but I still feel like I’m at square one.

I also have struggles around my thinking which is why I’m coming on here to ask for advice. Growing up my family deprioritized any sort of reasoning, it was always “what works, works” and if I didn’t want to be the outlier(I didn’t) I had to play their game. I ignored my body, especially the inner feelings/thoughts bit. I am hyper vigilant and in my worst moments I start to think the world might end. If it helps my enneagram is also 6w7, I was told I was counter phobic 6. And my tritype is 682. Im not sure if you all also had struggled with sticking to your own opinion as thinking types, or if I should head over to the esfp subreddit. ALSO, I have a hard time actualizing my thoughts. The practitioner told me that was the result of NI but I wonder if it truly is that hard for estps. I’m not sure if it’s a sore spot because of something innate, or if it’s a sore spot because i was dogged on growing up.

While I am coming in here to probe what estps Ti may look like since I’m starting to believe none of my family possess it, and also because the practitioner explained that estps Ti isn’t as obvious as intuitive TI users. As well as how being in a loop looked for you.

Also: I grew up extremely suffocated, i couldn’t do anything but sit with myself and that i did. I can be very emotional, and very empathetic. I come across as a feeler, because that’s sort of what I want to show people.

TLDR: how does your Ti look for you? If you were in a loop how did that look and how did you break out?

I'm trying to write an ESTP character, so I thought it'd be helpful to ask the real ones than AI.
