Sorry if this is a very long and detailed "question", but I really want an answer!
So, I'm a girl, and I've recently become quite interested in MBTI, and taken several tests, trying to find out what type I am. On all of the tests I've tested as an INTJ, which does fit me somewhat. The I is usually 70-85 %, the N 65-75 %, the T 60-70 %, and the J is usually 50-55 %.
I am positive that I am an introvert, since I HAVE to have my alone time, and can seem pretty quiet and reserved. I do enjoy the company of people though, but it has got to be people I have a lot in common with, and who discuss deeper subjects. I really don't like small talk, especially with dumb and boring people. I can tolerate it, if the person is intelligent and witty.
Even though I do like living in the future, and thinking about the past, the present is also very important to me. I would say I am more intuitive than sensing, but I do very much like fashion and beauty, which I think is more rare for those who lean towards the intuitive side. I do often get a feeling of a situation, and such, but am also interested in the facts and details. I am not very good at memorizing them though, probably average, I would say.
INTJ's often seem quite arrogant, and are not in tune with others emotions and feelings, and don't really catch it if someone is feeling a certain thing. I feel like this description of me is wrong. I do to some people probably seem arrogant, so that I can agree on. I often sympathize with certain things, and other thing I don't. I always sympathize with animals, and get very frustrated if I see animal abuse. I also sympathize with old people, especially men (!). Homeless people also bring out some "feely" sides in me, and I usually give them money. On the other side, I hate expressing my emotions, and have a very hard time opening up. I also hate when people talk a lot about their emotions, it kind of makes me feel sick. I cry quite easily though, and have a hard time controlling my tears. If someone criticizes me I start crying, even when it what their saying isn't bothering me. I also cry if I'm put under a lot of stress, or if I'm frustrated. Crying in public is devastating, and when I do, it embarrasses me terribly, and I won't let the incident go. Music moves me, sometimes, but I've never cried over a movie or a book, even though they can make me feel things. It also takes quite a lot to really make me laugh, especially when it comes to entertainment, such as TV-shows and movies. I don't have this need to tell people the honest truth all the time (like many INTJ's), only if what they are doing is affecting me in a bad way, and it is annoying me. Even then, I will usually try to be nice about it. The only people I really feel comfortable about having physical contact with is my family, and I usually think being in a crowd (where not being in physical contact is impossible) is unnerving, since I think most people are quite repulsive (no offense). I am not quite sure if I seem all that confident, but I am. I set very high goals for myself, and usually achieve them, even though I don't work that hard. I am a perfectionist of nature. I LOVE being right about something, and will only say something if I am certain I am right. I also love correcting others grammatical mistakes. (Yes, I know my English is not perfect, it's not my native language.)
I don't know if this is important, but I am very sensitive to how people eat and drink. When someone makes that "glogg"-sound when they drink, I wan to shoot them. I really hate when people have poor manners, since they cost so little. This really only applies to strangers.
I don't care that much about what others think of me, but it depends who you're talking about. If the person is important to me, or someone I need to impress at school (teachers), it's quite important. Other people, I really couldn't care less about. I definitely have my own clothing style, and I love fashion. I love looking and being different.
I am very independent, and work best on my own. I don't like being a follower, nor do I like being a leader. I can be somewhat good at being a leader though, if i am forced to it.
I think quite maturely for my age (14), and am very opinionated. I don't really fit in with those my age. Some people would probably put me in the geek-group, but I'm too "cool" for that I think. I'm into fashion and I don't really like the geeks. I am an atheist, and have strong opinions about religion. On the other hand, I am quite interested in spiritual thing, such as horoscopes, birthstones, auras and such. Deep down I don't believe in it, but it's just fun, and I guess I'm hoping there is something more than what we see. I also have decided to never drink alcohol, because I would hate being out of control like that and I also don't see the point. When I tell people my age this, they look like I've said something completely crazy and insane, since most of them are already drinking. I definitely look down at them, and think they are quite pathetic. I admire people who are individual, opinionated, creative and intelligent.
The description of how the INTJ is angry fits me perfectly though. I will just ignore you, and won't scream or shout or anything like that. I may come with a horrible and hurtful insult though, if you really are annoying me.
I am a bit of a procrastinator, but thing are always done within the deadline. My teachers think I am a total goody-goody, but I'm not really. I procrastinate, hardly ever study, so on and so forth. I still get good grades though. The grade system where I live is 1-6, where 1 is failing and 6 is the best possible result. I have an average of 5,4. I know I can do even better, but I'm lazy.
I prefer things to be organized, but they often aren't. I always promise myself to "be more organized", but that rarely happens. I might keep things organized for a while, but then I give up. Maybe I'm just lazy? INTJ's apparently hate surprises, but I love them. I love planning and organizing, but have no problem not doing it. I like to stick to rules, but I might break one now and then.
Also, the careers for the INFJ are the ones I prefer. For example artist, bookstore owner, freelance writer, poet, professor of english, painter, novelist, book editor, environmentalist, magazine editor, screenwriter, film director, creative director, art historian, photo journalist, makeup artist, photo journalist, homemaker. They are creative, but you still have to be intelligent. The careers for INTJ's are a bit to science oriented for my preference. Don't get me wrong, I like science, but I don't want to work with it. I prefer language and art over science and math.
So, please help me, it would be much appreciated. I really want to be placed in one category, but if it's not possible, I'm okay with that too. If you have any more questions, ask away!
Thank you for taking your time reading this!
EDIT: I am also VERY indecisive, and decisions are hard for me because my mind keeps changing. I love observing situations, and I put this into my writing. I have a hard time making conversation when people small talk, and I usually just nod, smile and say "yeah", "Oh, really?" and stuff like that, it's really awkward. I tend to get embarrassed when others make fools out of themselves , almost as if I'm the one making a fool out of myself. This also happens when I watch movies or TV shows, I sometimes have to look away or change the channel. I do sometimes like being the center of attention, but only with certain things. I think A LOT, and tend to over-analyze situations. I really don't like bossy people who think that because I'm quiet and reserved, they think they can treat me as they wish. I do have difficulty sympathizing with people who are in situations they put them in themselves (then why on earth do I sympathize with homeless people, who are often addicted to drugs, stuff like that?). I may seem like a follower to those who don't know me, but I am definitely very independent. I tend to be shy about a lot of situations, since I don't want to make mistakes or be wrong. I often have a lot of projects going, and have a hard time completing them. This makes me seem like I am perceiving, but the thing is, when I have lots of uncompleted projects, it annoys me, but I'm just too lazy to finish them. I prefer to complete them over starting them, but this rarely happens.
