trying to make sense of Jack
coffeecat33:
MUCH more like Ennis - keep it all inside, don't talk much, stoic. Is that why I am so attracted to Jack??

I am very much like Jack ... except even more emotional. I pretty much wear my feelings on my sleeve. I don't hide anything very well. When I'm hurt, I show it. But, I admit, I am attracted to men who are the opposite of me. As you have said, "the messed-up Ennis types" ... yep. Even my girlfriends tend to be more abrasive than I am.
They laugh at me at work because they always say I am so “bubbly”. I try to, “see the sunny side of life” I guess! Although I do have a wicked, sarcastic sense of humor. Not sure how that fits in .... ::)
[/quote]I know, I'm like that too... lol.. :)
I think these are all characteristics of the Briggs-Meyer INFP (Introverted Intuitive Feeling Perceptive), which I know I am, and I am also pretty sure that Jack was like that too.

Actually, I am ENFJ (however, there is only one point difference between my "I" score and my "E"). I would see Jack as being extroverted. He is certainly the more gregarious of the two! ;) However, the rest certainly fits his personality.

Back in the old IMDb boards, someone (was it Leslie? Victoria?) took the Myers-Briggs as if they were Jack and as if they were Ennis. I'm pretty sure they came up with ENFJ for Jack, but I forget.
(<--- INTJ, for what it's worth)

Whoa! If that's the case, then Jack and I are more alike than I thought!!
