Who I am

According to the Myers-Briggs Test I am... a ISFJ
11% Introverted
1% Sensing
75% Felling
78% Judging


An ISFJ is a person who likes to serve others. They like to feel needed and loved but do not like "give-and-take" relationships.The older the friendship, the more SIFJ's value it. In the work place and friendships you can count on them to be loyal and hardworking. They know that the work that they do is good but they do not like to praise themselves and they won't turn a person down if they ask for help or assistance. As a result, they are often taken advantage of. Although they are loyal to their job and it is very important to them to get it done and do it right, their family is first and the center of their life.
Some careers for ISFJ's are: teaching, social work, nursing, medicine, clerical and secretarial work.
I agree with almost everything Myers-Briggs said I was!! I love to help and serve others and it is so hard for me to turn someone away or say no. I love to work hard and do the job right. My closest and longest friends are the ones' I want to be in my life forever and the ones' I would do anything for. I treasure our relationships and know i can count on them for anything. I am also a person who likes to feel needed and loved. However, I will not get into a relationship with someone if I know their whole heart isn't in it or they don't treat me the way I know i should be. When i let someone into my heart it's genuine and it's important to me. I don't want a relationship that's only going to last a few months. I'm slow and careful to open my heart to someone because I don't want to be hurt. I fall for the person who i know could be there for me forever. However, the test said that i was the type of person that you couldn't count on to jump in after a friend if they were in a fight. For me, I would. I would be right in there defending my friend and trying to break up the fight if it were physical; and if it was verbal, i would be there to back them up (but not egging it on). Lastly, I have always had a passion to be a nurse. So to see that ISFJ's would do well in nursing really makes me happy :)
