ENFJs are champions of the values espoused by their communities, and they make concerted efforts to make themselves into living examples of those values, both for their own benefit and for that of those around them.

ENFJs may often wonder how they can make any meaningful moral decision without knowing how the people they find important (i.e., those with whom their relationships create the fabric of their public identities) feel about the issue in question. This is not to say ENFJs don't have any moral ideas of their own; they simply conceptualize morality as a concept that should be discussed and agreed upon by the groups of people who intend to define their relationships to each other through common adherence to them.

They're generally very aware of the implications of who they choose to associate themselves with, and they tend to know just how to say whatever it is that they need to say to get others on board with their causes and goals.

it may result in a confusing disconnect between what the ENFJ really does want, and that which he is expected to want it may result in a confusing disconnect between what the ENFJ really does want, and that which he is expected to want

This stood out to me right at the get-go:This is so true for me. I love personality theories, and typology in general. I have since a teenager. Have I honestly ever needed it or benefited from it? Not really. I involve myself with it for the sole reason that it's fun and interesting. It's never really been about personal growth, and I doubt it ever will be.Not. A major thing I don't like with ENFJ profiles is the term "communities" because it makes me think of town hall meetings and committees with in that; I don't care about that stuff. That said, community can mean anything. Essentially, if I am part of some type of group that I enjoy, I want to do really well with it, and I am super driven to rise to the top and do my absolute best at it. I also definitely have to represent what I want things to be as. It's not really about benefit for others (at least I don't think of it that way). It's more of just wanting things to be good and work well, which is quite dependent on everyone working well.Definitely. I can and do contort myself into pretty interesting shapes automatically in many social situations, but there are some where I flat out won't do it. Mostly if it goes against too many things that I stand for. Or the odd situation where I really just don't give a shit.Oh. I think this is a major hallmark of Fe dominants.Ha,. I am keenly aware of the effects of associating with various people, at various times, in various situations. I use this to my advantage all the time and it is how I navigate the social world. Nearly everything I say is calculated. I'm constantly thinking several steps previous, and several steps ahead with my actions and words, and construct them to have the impacts I need in the future. This is a HUGE part of me, and has been since I was a small child. It's gotten me into trouble when I was a kid because this ability allows me to be profoundly manipulative. Sometimes I don't even realize I am doing it it's so innate.This usually isn't a problem, but at times it is. I will get all kinds of pissy (and need to later vent) when there is a huge difference between what I want and what I am expected to want. If I keep this up for a long time though I can trick myself into thinking I like something that I don't because it is expected that I do and I adopt it.
