@kayla-skywriter No, don’t get me wrong. I don’t dislike it. I’m just not into it. As in, I never took the time to study it or get into it more than taking the test. I’m an E/INFP. And a lot of the personality descriptions to apply to me, but one reason that I’ve never wanted to delve more deeply into it is that I don’t believe you can put people in boxes, which I’m sure you all know. You can definitely make studies and there are ‘usualies’ and this can be really useful in character studies and getting to know people, but it’s never certain. And I think some people who get super into this can sort of confine themselves, say that this is my personality and that’s what I have to be I guess since this is what I got on my test. I know people who get answers on the test and break the mold in all sorts of ways, myself included.
This very rambling paragraph was just trying to explain this. I don’t hate it. I don’t love it. I don’t know much about it. I don’t think it’s ever 100% accurate. I think people can take it too far. But I also think it’s very useful.
