It's kind of funny to see what other types I could have been. The ISTJ is totally my father (I could have been his clone... imagine that!). I think I might have been more of an ESFJ as a child, but the "T" side of me developed as I grew older. The other interesting note is that all five matches have me down as a "J". Yep. Shows you that I wasn't kidding about being inflexible, bwahaha. :-D
So an ESTJ could be a police detective, eh? Wah! I am in the wrong field! :-D You know, that was sorta like my dream as a kid. I wanted to be one of those CIA agents who walk around all day wearing sunglasses and dressed completely in black (start "Mission Impossible" music). I'd kick people's butts with my massive martial arts skills, gun-totin' suaveness, and horseback riding prowess. Kind of a cross between a spy and a cowgirl. That would have been FREAKIN' awesome!
Ok. I was kind of a weird kid. I remember I used to daydream all the time in elementary school. Like the time in first grade where they talked to us about fire safety and then I sat and thought about an elaborate fire escape plan when I should have been writing my letters. My daydreaming got me a "check mark" (notation for areas of improvement) in the field of "completing assigned tasks" back then. Man, were my parents and I concerned... Dad freaked out because I was exactly the same way he was as a child; I was freaking about because I had a check mark (it was the only one I ever got); and Mom was freaking out because Dad and I were both freaking out. So Mom and Dad sat me down and patiently worked on this particular trait, even after the check mark was removed. And I'm thankful for that - though I do occasionally daydream, I am still a very focused individual and my creativity has not suffered as a result of being more attentive.
I think it was Blake who asked our MEM Professional Development instructor if we could use the Myers-Briggs type indicators as dating/relationship compatibility indicators. :-D With all seriousness though, that would make a very interesting study. I guess there would be some element of "opposites attract" in there but probably not to the extremes for all four letters. For example, I know I would NOT do well marrying a guy who was an "FP" because he would cause my extreme "TJ" side to combust, so "balancing" would not work here. On the other hand, my best bet would be to find a guy who was an "N" in order to complement my "S" nature (having a guy who was an "S" would actually drive me nuts... I am truthfully more comfortable around "N" guys). Outside of that, I guess I'm open. (See?? I'm being flexible!!)
