Hello. I was wondering, could you provide a description of what an INFJ 3w2 is like, compared to a 2w3? Thank you.
Other examples found here.
INFJ 2: gifted at figuring out not only what people need, but what they need to hear, in order to shape them toward a greater version of themselves, which can lead them into manipulative behaviors if unhealthy; when healthy, an effective counselor-type personality, able to forewarn of troubles, usually strongly reliant on their relationships and concerned with appropriateness; sometimes with a greater over-reaching vision they want to see come about.
INFJ 3: often excessively status-focused, prone to tunnel vision, and much harder on themselves for perceived laziness and failures; the drive of 3 will develop inferior Se into ‘action mode’ but high Ni may make them severe upon themselves if they lack perfection or miss their goal by mere inches; sometimes prone to unreasonable expectations and standards of personal behavior; often gregarious and well-liked, but hides anything ‘unpleasant’ that shatters the illusion of perfection; very focused on appearances, somewhat out of touch with their true feelings, and prone to Ni/Ti loops (analyzing and refining their future vision, rather than seeing external factors that could alter it).
The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes: Coriolanus Snow: INTJ 3w2
Myers Briggs: INTJ
Ni: Coriolanus is very intuitive about people and the world around him. He sees underlying patterns in the behavior of others that other people miss. He is a good strategist and an analytical thinker. He has a vision for his future and where his life is supposed to be headed.
Te: He is efficient and practical. He sees external structures as important and believes the world would be chaos without them. He believes in the Hunger Games because he believes they bring order to Panem and prevent another war from taking place. He is an analytical problem solver, and even kills Mayfair in order to preserve his future, seeing her death as a means that is justifiable by the end he desires. He is a creative problem solver and cheats to win the Games after he realizes that they intend to release the snakes in the arena.
Fi: Coriolanus feels a strong connection to Lucy Gray and Tigris. He pretends to like the other students at his school only to get ahead and holds few relationships close to his heart. He feels a strong connection to his mother, although he does not remember her too well.
Se: Coriolanus does not live in the present, but focuses primarily on the future. He acts best when he has a plan in mind, and is very future oriented. When his future is in jeopardy, he impulsively acts to achieve his vision, by cheating in the games and by killing Mayfair when she threatens to expose him for his meeting with the rebels. His Se is immature compared to his other functions, and he doesn’t use it very often.
Enneagram: 3w2
Coriolanus is very focused on becoming a success and restoring the Snow legacy. He cares only about being successful and will sacrifice anything in order to achieve his goals. Coriolanus is also very charming and knows how to make people like him in order to ensure his future as a success. He also shows his 2 wing by taking care of Lucy Gray. He brings her food before she goes into the arena to get her to like him, but also because he feels bad for her. He also makes sure that she’s doing okay.
The Originals: Elijah Mikaelson: ISFJ 1w2
Myers Briggs: ISFJ
Si: Elijah internalizes traditional values, such as his family and his home. He is focused on past memories and helping Klaus become the person he once was. He pays close attention to detail and his internal senses, like his clothes. He remembers things from a thousand years ago in great detail.
Fe: Elijah is warm and empathic, especially to the ones he loves. He will do anything for the ones he cares about, and sees peace in New Orleans as the right way to protect his family. He creates group unity even when the factions of the supernatural community are at war with each other.
Ti: Elijah is analytical and notices logical inconsistencies in other people. He is very intelligent and perceptive about the world around him.
Ne: Elijah may be focused primarily on the past, but still looks to possibilities in the future and understands that the world is a dynamic, changing place. However, he refuses to believe that Klaus cannot go back to being the way he once was, except when they were estranged. This makes him extremely loyal to his brother and to his plan to help Klaus find his redemption.
Enneagram: 1w2
Elijah is very principled and perfectionistic. He seeks to improve the city of New Orleans so he can do right by his neice and help his brother redeem himself. Everything he does in New Orleans is to help Klaus become a better version of himself. He is very moral but also caring to his family and becomes upset when they do not reciprocate his affection. He denies his feelings for Hayley because he does not want to be what he sees as disloyal to Klaus, but he still takes care of her regardless. Elijah is willing to do anything for his family, even sacrifice himself, and feels his purpose is to serve his family.
OSPP Temperament: Phlegmatic Choleric
Elijah primarily wants to help people, specifically his family. He is caring and loving, wanting to do right by his family and especially Klaus. He is warm and accommodating and in season one seeks peace in New Orleans because it is right and will keep Hope safe when she is born. Elijah is kind but can be blunt and sarcastic when under stress. Elijah fights for what he believes in, which is defending his family and his home. He is efficient and does not tolerate others who oppose his plans to protect his family. He can be pushy about getting what he wants done, although not as pushy as Klaus, who is primarily Choleric.
Attitudinal Psyche: FVEL
1F Confident Physics: Elijah is very aware of his physical needs and wants. He is well dressed and likes to live in comfort. He likes to organize his environment in a pleasing way. He is a good fighter.
2V Flexible Volition: Elijah is a take charge person and when protecting his family will exploit others to achieve his goals, like when he kidnaps Elena in the Vampire Diaries in order to stop Esther’s spell. Elijah is not afraid to tell others what to do when in a leadership position, but is not as aggressive as Klaus, like when he strives to create peace in New Orleans in The Originals.
3E Insecure Emotion: Elijah is not as in touch with his own emotions and instead focuses on the emotions of his family and protecting them. He represses his feelings until they bubble to the surface, causing him to occasionally have outbursts.
4L Unbothered Logic: Elijah is not as focused on correct versus incorrect and takes his time formulating an opinion, and sometimes his feelings can cloud his judgement.
Stranger Things: Max Mayfield: ISTP 6w5
Myers Briggs: ISTP
Ti: Max is very analytical. She understands how things work in the world around her, and applies that logical understanding to the Upside Down. She quickly figures out how Vecna’s curse works based on the files she reads, and despite not being a “nerd” like her friends, often surprises them with logical insights. She makes logical, impartial decisions, even risking her life selflessly, because she knows it is the best course of action. She always argues based on logic as opposed to emotion when convincing her friends of her point, even in emotionally charged situations. She’s good at “hacking” different aspects of the Upside Down with her Ti- like using the Sauna Test on Billy when he’s possessed by the Mind Flayer.
Se: Max is very impulsive and trusts her gut. She lives in the moment, pursuing what she wants and not thinking about future repercussions, like when she takes Jane to the mall in Season Three. She does, however, fall into a Ti- Ni loop in Season Four, not living in the moment and withdrawing inward. She is very physically active and enjoys skateboarding. She is practical and more interested in the immediate world than her “nerdy” friends, preferring to improvise than to learn the theoretical explanations of the Upside Down.
Ni: Max likes to develop a plan before leaping into action. She uses her internal logic to assess the situation first, then formulates a plan using those same Ti hacks. She’s good at laying out a detailed plan for how to solve any Upside Down related problem, coming up with clever, creative solutions. She is intuitive about the Upside Down and good at drawing conclusions from the available information about Vecna’s plan.
Fe: Max is selfless and willing to sacrifice herself to save her friends and the world. She doesn’t find it easy to open up to people, especially after the trauma she experiences, but finds it helpful to work through her emotions with Lucas when she feels ready. In season two, she is hurt when her friends don’t tell her things about the Upside Down, because she wants to feel part of the group. She wants to be on the same page as her friends, and is upfront about her feelings in order to do so.
Enneagram: cp6w5
Max values her friendships above everything. She tries hard to be accepted by her friends, and is always loyal to them even when it’s difficult. She faces issues head on, looking to solve problems with the help of her friends rather than running in the opposite direction. She is cautious and likes to gather data before making a decision, using knowledge to help her solve problems.
The Mortal Instruments, City of Bones: Jace Wayland: ISTP 8w7
Ti: Jace tells Clary, “I’ve been hunting demons all my life and in that time I’ve never seen an angel.” Jace believes in logic and evidence, and doesn’t believe in anything he sees as illogical. Jace tells Clary that he sees music as having “no room for emotion”- he sees it as a system with a practical use, for killing demons. He describes the components of music- describes the “mathematical combination” of rhythm, “a simple representation of notes- no interpretation” to “expose demons.” He knows how it works on a fundamental level and this knowledge allows him to use it to his advantage. He factors logic into all of his decisions- he brings Simon along to get Clary to trust him, and for the same reason saves Luke’s life at Clary’s request- not because it is what he wants or is the moral thing to do, but because it serves logic.
Se: Jace is impulsive and acts in the moment. He trusts Clary and Simon based on gut “impulse” because he sees Clary’s potential and realizes that allowing Simon to come along will convince Clary to trust him. Jace is skilled in combat and does most of the fighting throughout City of Bones, relying on instinct in fights. He knows how to manuever his body and is a graceful fighter with fluid movements.
Ni: Jace prefers instinct over planning, but is still very intuitive- he can sense that he can trust Clary right away, but sometimes misinterpets the thoughts and emotions of others, like when Clary explains her kiss with Jace to Simon, and Jace takes it as meaning that the kiss wasn’t “special” to Clary, relying on an immediate interpretation of what is right in front of him, which he believes is more logical, as opposed to reading between the lines.
Fe: Jace can be blunt and stoic, and at times seems unemotional because he prefers to trust logic in his decision making. He tells Clary when she asks him to save Luke- “he’s a dead man, I can’t help him.” He wants to be practical and get Clary to safety, but realizes it is more logical to help her to earn her trust, and also because he cares about her feelings and knows Luke is important to her.
Enneagram: 8w7
Jace, in Clary’s words, “acts like nothing ever hurts him.” He places a lot of importance on being “strong,” because the man who raised him enforced that idea to him his whole life. Jace is also a shadowhunter, a job that doesn’t allow him to express vulnerability- he can’t allow himself to feel. He tells Clary when talking about training an animal that his abusive father then killed- “I cried all night and then I never cried again.” Jace believes there is no room for emotion in his life- he believes his own strength is what enables him and his friends to survive. He is strong to protect them, always saving those weaker than him from danger. His 7 wing is impulsive and he is double feeling repressed- he never fails to act on a goal when he needs to. He lacks the passivity of a 9 wing but seems to have a fun loving side he only shows to Clary.
The Talented Mr. Ripley: Tom Ripley: INFJ 3w2
Myers Briggs: INFJ
Ni: Tom is good at anticipating what other people are going to do next. He is a clever strategist and plans out his crimes. He is intuitive about other people and uses his insights into other people’s thoughts to cover up his murders. Tom skillfully predicts future outcomes and adjusts his plans accordingly. He plans everything he does and is always focused on the big picture.
Fe: Tom always knows what to say to make people like him. He charms Meredith into thinking he’s rich like her, and he charms Marge and Dickie by telling them what they want to hear. He is outwardly emotional and prone to outbursts when he’s upset because he can’t hold his emotions in. He also has no problems with lying about who he is in order to get ahead, manipulating other’s feelings to get what he wants.
Ti: Tom is clever and methodical in his cover ups. He sends letters to himself to make it look like Dickie’s still alive, then forges a suicide note by Dickie to cover up both Dickie’s and Freddie’s deaths when people start to get suspicious of him, and lies to Marge about how he got Dickie’s rings.
Se: Tom relies on clever planning mostly but can improvise in the moment when he needs to. He can sometimes be too impulsive and nearly ruins his own plans, and finds it easier to plan ahead.
Enneagram: 3w2
Tom knows how to charm people into liking him. He manipulates Marge, Dickie and Peter so that he can get ahead. He hates not having money, and mooches off Dickie to enjoy a life he never could have before. He pretends to be Dickie to get Meredith to like him and later impersonates Dickie to keep living the life he desperately wants. He is also very “helpful” to Dickie and Marge- he agrees to keep Dickie’s secret after Silvana’s death, he lets Marge confide in him in order to make her feel loved so he can manipulate her. He needs to feel loved and becomes devastated when Dickie eventually rejects him, his 2 wing disintegrating to 8 rage when he kills Dickie.
Sorry I haven’t posted in a while, I got really sick for a few weeks (not Covid though). I will continue to post more often going forward.
Attitudinal Psyche: The Talented Mr Ripley: Tom Ripley
EVFL
1E Confident Emotion: Tom is outwardly emotional and expressive. He is good at dealing with emotions of others, and always knows what people want to hear. He is opinionated in regards to culture, but diplomatic in expressing those opinions when he does. He is open to the emotional expressions of others and can be quite charming.
2V Flexible Volition: Tom is logical amd good at setting goals. He plans meticulously how to impersonate Dickie, in order to exercise his own willpower and achieve his desires. He is not pushy and will let other people make their own decisions, but will also manipulate others in order to achieve his goals. He knows what he wants and how to get it, and makes quick decisions in order to accomplish what he wants done.
3F Insecure Physics: Once he acquires the money necessary to do so, Tom puts a lot of effort into his appearance. He is very conscious of how his appearance affects the way others see him, and wears expensive clothes in order to attract attention. He is not overly focused on his physical health or needs but is more focused on what he wants and his emotions.
4L Unbothered Logic: Tom is not very theoretical. He prefers to focus on his goals and emotions instead of why the world works the way that it does. In the book he mentions not really having an aptitude for anything outside of impersonating other people. He is not concerned with logical principles but is more focused on status so that he can attract other people’s attention and achieve his goals.
Jamie Campbell Bower:
Quicktype: INFJ 4w3
Observations on myers briggs: He accurately predicts the show- he knew Vecna was the main villain before it was confirmed to him, which indicates Ni. Tends to unify everything he does- music and acting, indicating convergence of Ni. He is very intuitive about getting inside his character’s heads- NiFe. He is very personable and polite- Fe. He is methodical in his roles- Ti. He mentions having finally found a good work/ life balance- maybe struggles with living in the moment so inferior Se is likely. Se could be developing with age, he is in his thirties.
Observations on enneagram: He is very individualistic, authentic, identity based despite being Fe, which is why he is often typed as INFP but I see clear auxiliary Fe. He is sensitive and emotional, good at getting in touch with dark side for his roles. Sounds 4w3 to me, he is also very charming and socially conscious. Could have a 7 fix somewhere because he is a very positive person in interviews, reframes things to be more positive in a activity-/ fun- oriented way.
The Originals: Aurora De Martel: ENFP 7w8
Myers Briggs: ENFP
Ne: Aurora is creative and always sees numerous possibilities. She is impulsive and opportunistic and reinvents her environment in order to achieve her goals. She is intuitive and it doesn’t take long for her to realize Klaus feels more for Cami than for her.
Fi: Aurora is authentic and emotional. She focuses primarily on her own emotions and uses her intuition about emotions to manipulate others. She struggles with feelings of worthlessness due to her Bipolar Disorder and is inwardly focused to the point of being self critical. She feels it is her fault her mother died during childbirth and sees herself as a monster. She also identifies with Klaus for this very reason, believing that she went through something similar to him and this initially strengthens their bond. On the other hand, blames others for problems she caused, refusing to believe it was her fault, like when she tries to harm Cami and then comes to despise Klaus for ending their relationship.
Te: Aurora can be efficient, but it is not her strongest area. She sometimes misses things that a stronger Te would not. She takes a step by step approach and becomes frustrated when others make mistakes.
Si: Aurora holds on to her memories of her relationship with Klaus, her feelings for him remained after a thousand years. She is quick to forgive Tristan despite the numerous times he locked her away over the years, instead looking up to and idealizing him as her protector.
Enneagram: 7w8
Aurora is hedonistic and seeks exciting activities. She is impulsive and scattered, always busy trying to achieve some kind of goal. She runs away from the pain she feels as part of her Bipolar Disorder, refusing to believe that Klaus doesn’t love her more than Cami. She is always optimistic about her goals.

OSPP Temperament: Melancholic Choleric
Nancy is a perfectionist who cares about the truth. She wants to solve cases because she is interested in the truth and doing things right.

Just an INFJ nerd who likes typing people’s mbti, enneagram, temperament and other systems.
