Who is the Most Indoorsy Among MBTI Personalities?

In the world of MBTI personalities, different types have varying degrees of being indoorsy or outdoorsy. This article analyzes which MBTI types are the most likely to stay at home and which ones are more inclined to go out.

In the world of MBTI personalities, there is often a question: Are all I-type personalities very indoorsy? And are all E-type personalities who love socializing always fond of going out? Well, the answer is no!

Let's start with the extroverted personalities. ESFP is extremely outgoing. They are super playful and can't stand staying at home. They are always on the go and love being with a large group of people. Making new friends every day is what makes life interesting for them. ESTP is also quite social. Although not as playful as ESFP, they are always busy socializing and can't stay at home. The only time they might be at home is when they are with the opposite sex. ENFP has so many friends that they can hardly stay at home. They are constantly being called out by various people and are often dragged out forcefully. Their holidays are always fully booked. ESTJ is focused on their career. They work overtime a lot and have many social engagements. They don't spend much time at home. Weekends are often spent 'connecting' with clients. But they are satisfied with this life as they value their career the most. ENFJ is always thinking about the collective and rarely considers their own interests. They spend most of their free time with friends and have a rich social life. They seldom stay at home. ENTJ, compared to ESTJ's single-minded pursuit of money, values other things more. After having a family, they also spend some time with their families, which gives them some 'indoorsy' time. ENTP actually needs some time to stay at home and think about life occasionally. This is when they come up with new ideas. Especially when they are with INTP, the active ENTP can turn into a total homebody and play house with INTP.

Now let's look at the introverted personalities. ISFP is the least indoorsy among I-type personalities. With a good sense of aesthetics, they love being close to nature and enjoy going out. When they have a full schedule, they can be as active as ESFP. ISFJ is also relatively less indoorsy among I-type personalities. They are well-behaved and have good relationships with others. They have a good reputation among friends and are often invited to play. During breaks, they also like to go out for a walk and look around. ISTJ is more focused on learning or work. They spend most of their time in the library or office, immersed in studying data. ESFJ is the most indoorsy among E-type personalities. Whether they stay at home or go out depends on who they are with. If they are alone, they are likely to stay at home and watch TV. But if they are with someone who likes to go out, they will go along. ISTP has many homebodies. It depends on their Ti-Se development mode. If they like sports, they are more willing to go out. But if they are into pure craftsmanship, they are likely to be total homebodies. INFJ is relatively indoorsy. They prefer to stay at home and restore energy on holidays by listening to music or watching shows. But if close friends invite them, they are willing to go out. INTJ is very indoorsy. The only reason their indoorsy index is not 100% is because of their career. If it weren't for their Te function that forces them to go out for socializing, their index would probably be 100%. INFP is a deep introvert. Staying at home, watching shows and eating snacks is the happiest thing for them. They can temporarily escape the outside world and live in their own little world. INTP is almost always at home. If they didn't have to socialize, they could stay at home for months without moving. The pandemic is like a blessing for them as everyone is staying at home.

In conclusion, different MBTI personalities have different levels of being indoorsy or outdoorsy. It's not always true that I-types are all indoorsy and E-types are all outdoorsy. Each personality has its own characteristics and preferences.
