so can an ISFJ resemble extroverts with their Fe? i have a lot of extroverted qualities but i personally feel that i’m an introvert deep down. so how can you tell the difference between ISFJ and ESFJ? also side note do ISFJs also define themselves by external standards and care what others think like Fe doms do?

I have seen my ISFJ best friend ‘turn on’ Fe and act like an extrovert in a social group … but at the end of the day she still wants to go home and crash. After being out and about and social for that long, she winds down and needs to sleep it off or go into her room for awhile. She dreams about long weekends with the house all to herself.

Extroverts get bored of that very quickly and start texting all their friends, if they can’t call them or see them in person or have nothing to do. :P

I’ve done four comparisons of these two types in the ESFJ x ISFJ tag.

Would you say your flaw is not considering all possibilities and/or feeling threatened by multiple perspectives (inferior Ne) or a dislike of detaching on an emotional level and analyzing your loved ones ruthlessly (inferior Ti)?

Under stress, do you turn into Rory Gilmore and think about the 453 ways this could ruin your future (ISFJ) or do you become like Caroline Forbes and wail, “WHY? WHY IS THIS HAPPENING???” as you try desperately to understand it instead of just dealing with it (ESFJ)?
