ISFJ (I am an "I", not an "E" Revisited)

From the Wiki: " The Myers–Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) is a pseudoscientific self-report questionnaire that claims to indicate differing personality types. The test attempts to assign a binary value to each of four categories: introversion or extraversion, sensing or intuition, thinking or feeling, and judging or perceiving. One letter from each category is taken to produce a four-letter test result representing one of sixteen possible personalities, such as "INFP" or "ESTJ". "

It also looked to sum things up with the following two sentences:
"Warm, considerate, gentle, responsible, pragmatic, thorough. Devoted caretakers who enjoy being helpful to others."

I'm never quite sure why it is that I subject myself to answer some of these ridiculous test questions. Many of them are not applicable. I use extremely little analysis in my life. Most of the time the skill set is required, it is applied to my checkbook or credit card statement. "How will I pay this?" "Where will the money come from?" "What do I need to do to fix this?"

I find these curious. Most people I know don't fully understand me. In a support GROUP, I am usually the only one who doesn't speak. Part of my job life--representative for labor in the workforce--often has me up against supervisors or managers who believe they are protected and above reproach. Character assassination is not part of my modus operandi. However, I am loyal to those I serve and I sometimes have to go OUTSIDE my comfort zone to make sure that things that should happen do happen.

Losing friends and friendships are very difficult situations for me. I don't have many to begin with. I lose them either because they feel I have slighted them in some way or because they simply die. Of course, I have also come in contact with a number of people over time who turn out to be somewhat mentally ill. For them, there is no way, shape, or form that I could participate in 'fixing' their situation. Still and all, losing someone because he/she/they/it feels I am threatening makes me feel unhappy. But friending a paranoid person is strenuous.

Sometimes I wish I could find a mate to this.
