Today we’re taking a look at three things you’d never dream of doing, based on your Myers-Briggs personality type. I know there are nuances between people, and everyone is one-of-a-kind, but I think I’d be seriously s،cked if I saw these things taking place (an ENFJ saying they don’t feel like talking when someone wants to confide in them? I mean….in what world?). But if you disagree, or have a different opinion, be sure to let me know in the comments! I’m very curious!
