ask an ESFP!

Anime Typing by tgunn64 , Edited by theanimetypist

For ESFPs the dominant quality in their lives is their enthusiastic attention to the outer world of hands-on and real-life experiences. ESFPs are excited by continuous involvement in new activities and new relationships. ESFPs also have a deep concern for people, and they show their caring in warm and pragmatic gestures of helping. ESFPs are typically energetic and adaptable realists, who prefer to experience and accept life rather than to judge or organize it.

Extraverted Sensing (Se): Chief among Happy’s traits is his fixation on his favorite food; fish. He’s almost always thinking about fish, eating fish, giving fish to others, or looking for an excuse to talk about fish—demonstrating how consumed he is by his sensory pleasures. Happy enjoys flying, he clearly gets a rush from physical activity and adventure. Happy is always living in the moment. He’s seldom consumed by the past or potential future. He disregards the ‘maybe’s’ and ‘what if’s of life, what matters is being a Fairy Tail wizard here and now.

Introverted Feeling (Fi): Happy seldom cares how anyone else feels, and can be rather reckless with his words. He rarely takes time to read facial expressions, and more often than not, throws caution to the wind to shoot his mouth off and speak his mind, despite potential consequences. Though he rarely intends malice aside slight teasing, he has a habit for blurting out inconvenient truths. It was he that told Juvia that the alternate Gray from Edolas was in love with her, and one of his favorite jokes is poking fun at potential couples he thinks ‘love each other’. Happy rarely takes situations in an overly serious way. Even in the most stressful situations in which his peers are immensely tense, he’s smiling.

Extraverted Thinking (Te): Happy cares a great deal for signifiers of value. He hates being discounted or forgotten, and wants to be acknowledged as a Fairy Tail wizard and not just a cat. Happy usually acts before thinking, rushing into situations be it in action or in words. He’s unafraid to fight against Phantom Lord with his own special ‘magic’, or stand up for Carla, who was clearly upset by the words of the Exceeds upon their arrival in Edolas.

I’m pretty sure I’m a thinker, but I hate to upset people or see them upset

Yup. As an auxiliary Te user, this is a daily problem for me. I want to be logical at all times but when it ruffles feathers I often step on logic and preserve harmony instead. Or do I? Most thinkers HATE to deal with drama and emotions from others, therefore, they’ll say or do what others want as to keep things cool THEN they can proceed in dealing with facts. This is especially common with IxTJs because they typically don’t have those “commander” traits found in ExTJs, whom are notorious for bulldozing through emotional plights in favor of results. But ask yourself this question: Am I afraid of upsetting people because I value their feelings and want to be liked? Or is it because it will create drama which is an obstacle that I hate going through? If it’s the latter, you’re probably a thinker.

I’m pretty sure I’m a feeler, but I’m not some emotional mess that acts blindly on how I feel

Feelers seek harmony and appreciation, but when it comes at the expense of logic and rationality, a lot of them will be like “nuh-huh” and therefore may reconsider if they are actually feelers. That’s actually just healthy behavior. “Tough love” much? As a feeler you may be inclined in giving people second chances despite something atrocious they have done, you might also stick to your values despite all opposition, but so long as you keep things in check mentally, you’re good to go. Unlike popular belief, being a feeler doesn’t mean you are intellectually inferior to thinkers. It just means your heart has a strong voice in how you go about your life. That doesn’t necessarily translate in you being naive and denying cold hard facts. 

I’m pretty sure I’m a sensor, but I’m very creative and imaginative.

You know how we say that children are extremely imaginative? Well guess what… we were all kids and obviously not all of us are intuitive. Imagination and creativity is basically using what we see or have seen and then expending on it. We all do it. The difference is that sensors usually start from sensory experience THEN imagine. Whereas intuitives can leap immediately to what is “not there”. A lot of world’s greatest artists are actually sensors, they just built off from concrete experience, whereas intuitive can forego that step. This may make them seem like they have some sort of mental advantage (and perhaps they do), but sensors are more realistic in nature, even in their creative endeavors 

I’m pretty sure I’m an intuitive, but I consider myself realistic and down to earth.
