I'm stealing the rest of this from Jay's Blog. I'll try to post more this week...I just have to get a little more organized and a little more sleep.
The below is from a personality test from www.TheNerve.com I didn't take it on there, but have taken many, many before. I commented on Jay's about being an ENFP and he posted the results of an ENFP (Extroverted, Intuitive, Feeling, Perceiving.)
To continue on with Jay's discussion... is this the reason of my dating schema of life? Can this be a useful dating tool?
"The Social Philosopher"
ENFP General
You believe life is abundant, love is plentiful, and creativity is always within your grasp. If God combined the bouncing energy of a cocker spaniel with the enthusiasm of a couple on their honeymoon, God would still be only halfway to duplicating your insatiable zest for life.
ENFP when in love
“Puppy love” is a good term for describing your take on romance: fun, frisky, playful, cuddly, and young at heart. No matter what your age or how many times your heart has been broken, you are an eternal optimist when it comes to love. You are not someone who proceeds cautiously when you meet someone you find attractive. You are likely to fall passionately in love-or at least lust- quickly, spontaneously, and with total abandon. Holding something back for later is a concept you can’t quite grasp, especially when it comes to the joy of creating a new and exciting relationship. Yes, COMMITMENT can scare you. That one word may explain why you are still single at thirty, forty, fifty, or beyond. But you love, absolutely love, the concept of intimacy, sharing, and relationships. If only you could find that special one, you would be set for life.
ENFP where to meet
Where can you meet a Social Philosopher? Social Philosophers enjoy stimulating conversation and interesting people, and, like the Idealistic Philosopher and Mystic Writer, favor activities that revolve around psychology, philosophy, the arts, and helping others. Unlike Idealistic Philosophers and Mystic Writers, Social Philosophers seize every opportunity for social contact. They love the spotlight and are known to be excellent teachers and public speakers. Social Philosophers also routinely attend art gallery openings, wine tastings, fund-raisers, concerts, lectures, and plays. They may also be members of The Single Gourmet-a dining club for singles with sophisticated tastes.
Not sure I'm that crazy about that last statement . Kinda screams "Spinnster the Cat-Woman."
Except I have a dog.
********UPDATE************
I just took the personality test on Nerve. According to this, I've changed a little bit. I'm now an ESFJ (Extroverted Sensing Feeling Judger) which to me seems sorta like synonyms to ENFP. However...here is the results of this one. (Now I know I'm going to be all over the net looking for personality tests.)
ESFJ general
On those stressful days, we can thank God for that most wonderful of creatures – the one who nurtures and helps us unwind – the Dutiful Host. You are the gracious one, the master of ceremonies who delights in serving others and making sure they are well fed and well cared for. When it comes to hosting any social occasion – a birthday party, an anniversary celebration, or a bar mitzvah – you can barely contain your excitement. As soon as the date for such an event is announced, your mind is already going a hundred miles a minute – planning, organizing, and thinking about how much fun you and your guests are going to have.
ESFJ when in love
As a master host, one of your fondest dreams is making your wedding a smashing success: a cornucopia of people, food, music, and laughter – a lasting testament to your lifelong partnership. Before you get to the wedding stage, you will probably experience a rousing and sometimes conflict-ridden relationship with your beloved. You are the type of person who is not shy about expressing your emotions in a relationship. Whether you are singing the praises of love or barking out resentments and criticisms, rest assured, your partner will know you are there.
ESFJ where to meet
The Dutiful Host is a natural at taking care of others. You will usually find them working as schoolteachers, nurses, receptionists, as well as hosts and hostesses in restaurants, nightclubs, and other locales. An excellent way to become acquainted with a Dutiful Host is to work or volunteer at the sites where they are helping others: hospitals, schools, mental health clinics, and churches. You can also meet Dutiful Hosts wherever fine food, drink, and people are present: restaurants, wine-tasting clubs, rotating singles dinner parties, cooking classes, bar mitzvahs, and weddings.

Hi Molly
So which one do you think is more like you? Do you see yourself being a little bit of both?
If you find more tests let me know!
i definitely think i'm a mix between the two. i don't know that i'm the "martha" that enfj describes me as, though i love to throw a party. and...i do think i proceed cautiously ( a little) when heading into a relationship unlike enfp. so...i guess a good mix between the two ...though they are pretty similar anyway.
