R.Crouso: About relashionships, in typology the theory is that opposites attract, but birds of a feather flock together. In other words, someone who is very opposite of you may seem attractive, but in the long run, you will be happier with someone who shares some of your traits.
In the case of infp's such as yourself I have seen disastrous relashionships with their complete opposite:estj. I would stay clear of them, trust me on this one, it's not pretty.

I don't need to take a test. I am extroverted. I am nice. I am sometimes mean.I'm sorry did I call it a test?
I was just trying to be humorous. I've taken things like this before.
Now for something completely different:
This is the results I got for ISFP:
ISFP : The Crackpot
ISFP personalities are characterized by their impulsiveness, their defiance of conformity and orthodoxy, and their competitive natures. Taken together, these traits make up the ideal crackpot. While an ISFP's personality might seem flighty and their attention span short to an outsider, ISFPs live by the motto "Life is best approach--oh, look, potato chips!"
ISFPs are always on the cutting edge of new trends. Whether it's podcasting, taking up guitar, or running away to a far-off east African compound and joining a doomsday apocalyptic cult, ISFPs are always following their hearts and quickly embracing new ideas. However, they tend to be fleeting in their passions, which means they often may lack the dedication that marks a true cultist. While ISFPs often lack the dedication most people give to careers and family, they can still support themselves in more unorthodox ways, like by selling blood plasma, turning tricks, and mooching off their family.
RECREATION: ISFPs enjoy activities that cater to their emotional passions, and often pursue many hobbies, such as music, painting, sculpting, and running off to Vegas to marry that cute waitress from Mack's Truck Stop over on Route 9. Whenever God speaks to someone, it's usually an ISFP.
COMPATIBILITY: ISFPs do well in relationships with ISFJs and with anyone they meet in Las Vegas.
Famous ISFPs include Joan of Arc and--oh, look, potato chips!
This is Mrs.Flippers:
INFP : The Idealist
The INFP is a dreamy, imaginitive, idealist, capable of finding the good in anything or anyone, even something as foul as Newark, New Jersey. INFPs are sometimes dangerous to the well-being of society as a whole, as they are prone to adopting subversive and destructive ideologies like "The world should be fair," "People should treat one another well," and "You know, 'Friends' is a really, really stupid television show."
These irrational thought patterns may sometimes cause INFPs to run off and join the circus, the Resistance, or the Rebellion, where they tend to do well in any position requiring excellent hand-eye coordination or mastery of the Force.
COMPATIBILITY: INFPs and ISTJs generally exhibit a natural predator/prey relationship, which, though it might appear harsh and cruel from the outside, is all part of the natural cycle of life. In fact, were it not for the predation of the ISTJ, the population of INFPs would soon grow to unsustainable levels, overwhelming the ability of their ecological niche to support them.
Famous idealists include that girl in your sixth-grade homeroom who got the teacher fired for saying that girls aren't good at math; that guy in the cubicle next to yours who got the manager fired for saying that women don't make good employees; and Anais Nin.

I took this test once when I was in nursing program. I came out as a Guardian-Protector. It said my perfect career choice would be a nurse or a GP.
I took it again a couple of days ago when I was in a very analytical, logical, debating frame of mind. I came out as a Rational-Mastermind.
Took it again tonight when I was feeling a little softer and wanting to connect with people. I came out as a counselor. Interestingly that is what I would like to switch my degree major to. Counseling. Also what I preferred to do in nursing. Counseling on healthcare.
In each instance, the personality profile actually described me quite accurately. Therein lies the flaw in personality tests. We are not our "personalities". Our personalities are fluid and constantly changing and evolving. We take on many roles throughout our lives and have many different ego-identities associated with them. At certain times in our lives, due to circumstances, and sometimes due to survival needs, certain ego personalities will come to the fore and dominate. They are not the sum total of all that we are. To make major life decisions or hold a fixed view of ourselves due to the results of a test is a mistake, I believe.
I concede that some people are very inflexible and seem firmly entrenched in their dominant "personality". Sometimes I think those people seem happier and less conflicted. Still, underneath the layers of ego and personality, I am aware that we are more than these labels and definitions.

Took the test last week, I was ESFP, but I forgot what that means!

I will disagree. If you are answering the questions based on your present frame of mind, you aren't even reading the questions. The questions are asking you what you "prefer" "regularly" "as a rule" "generally" etc.
It's not a test, it's an indicator of your preferences. And unfortunately I don't think people's preferences in the way they think, either with their thoughts or their feelings, changes much, these are all decided by the time we are 6 or 7. You either perceive the world based on how it makes you feel or how it fits into your preconceptions. These don't change, and if someone says they do they aren't being honest with themselves.
I got the same response before the cult and after the cult, even though my core beliefs have shifted 100 and 1,000,000 percent!
This indicator has nothing to do with your ego, and it's not a label, it's a reflection of your responses which are true if you answer them properly.
