Here’s How Suspicious You Are, Based on Your Personality Type

Being suspicious of others can be a trait that comes naturally for some, while others are much more trusting. Here is how suspicious you are, based on your personality type.

 

INFJ

INFJs can definitely be suspicious of others, but it is often within reason. They are intuitive people who can often read the behaviors and motives of others. When they are truly suspicious of someone it is often because they sense something is not quite right about this individual. INFJs don’t like being seen as suspicious and will often keep their doubts and feelings to themselves. They can struggle to trust people since they have often experienced some hurtful and untrustworthy people.

ENFJ

ENFJs can sometimes be suspicious of others, especially the ones they recognize as untrustworthy. ENFJs can often read people fairly well, and they are good at recognizing when someone has negative intentions. They want to be around people they can trust, but they often have a larger social circle than will allow for this. When they see that someone has some qualities that are shady, the ENFJ definitely will be more than a little suspicious of this.

INFP

INFPs can definitely have a suspicious side, especially when they are feeling cynical. They want to find people they can trust and open up to, but they can have their doubts at first. INFPs can often see the best in people, unless there is something they intuitively cannot get past. Most of the time INFPs try to be open and upfront with others, but there are times when their suspicious side can come out, especially when someone is clearly deserving of this.

ENFP

ENFPs aren’t usually suspicious people and are actually more open and sincere. They want to connect with people, and dislike feeling like they have to constantly doubt their intentions. ENFPs who have been hurt a lot can be a bit suspicious of others, but they try not to let this overtake them. They search for love and people who they can feel comfortable with, and they don’t want to be held back by doubts and insecurities. ENFPs go after what they want with an openness, which makes them appear much less suspicious of others.

 

INTJ

INTJs can definitely be suspicious people, who have a hard time trusting others. INTJs try to observe the facts and go about things in a logical manner. This causes them to take a step back before actually trusting people, wanting to uncover their motives before moving forward. INTJs can definitely be doubtful and suspicious of others, which can make it challenging to really get too close to them most of the time. It takes time for them to make the choice to trust someone, and often requires some sort of firsthand research.

ENTJ

ENTJs can definitely be suspicious of others, mostly because loyalty is so important to them. They want to find people who they can trust and truly let into their lives, and this often takes time. ENTJs can sometimes research others before really trusting them, wanting to look at the facts and decide if they worth trusting. They truly want to connect with others and strive to make bonds that will last forever. For ENTJs being suspicious only lasts for as long as it takes to make the choice to trust someone.

INTP

INTPs are often very suspicious people, who have a hard time trusting others. They want to be prepared for things and look at it from a logical standpoint instead of approaching in an emotional manner. This desire to constantly look at the information and uncover the truth can actually make the INTP even more suspicious of others. They simply have a hard time just trusting what someone says, realizing that people often have ulterior motives.

ENTP

ENTPs can definitely be suspicious of others, especially since they are such intuitive people. They find themselves doubting the intentions of most others, but they try not to let it bother them too much. For ENTPs it is more about keeping people at arm’s length until they really get to know them. ENTPs often try to figure people out, and will observe their behavior suspiciously until they figure out who they truly are.

 

ISTJ

ISTJs can certainly be suspicious of others, since they prefer to be prepared. They can be cynical people, having doubts when it comes to the intentions of most people. They want to find the ones they can trust, but it takes time for them to really make the choice to connect with someone in this way. When they do find someone they make the choice to trust, ISTJs often stop being suspicious and doubtful of them.

ESTJ

ESTJs can definitely be suspicious, especially towards people who they have seen do untrustworthy things before. ESTJs do want to find loyal people who they can trust and connect with, but this takes time. They are strong-willed people who go after what they want in life with a sense of directness, and sometimes this can really make them appear more open.

ISFJ

ISFJs don’t like being suspicious, instead they want to be open with the ones they love. They can actually be a bit trusting when they care for someone, even if they should have their doubts. ISFJs are very giving people who do whatever they can to make the ones they love happy. They don’t like constantly being suspicious of others, instead they want to be able to rely on those around them.

ESFJ

ESFJs are caring people, but they do have an occasionally suspicious side. When they are doubtful of someone it is often because they are reading something off about their behavior. ESFJs are usually sensitive to the emotions of others, and have a natural ability to read their deeper intentions. This can cause the ESFJ to be suspicious, but they are usually this way when there is something to actually be worried about.

 

ISTP

ISTPs actually can be suspicious people, simply because they are guarded. They prefer to look at the facts of things before jumping in and trusting in others. ISTPs want to observe and understand the truth and so they often take time to learn about someone before trusting them. ISTPs are suspicious because they realize that things aren’t always as they seem, so they prefer to take a step back before making the choice to trust someone.

ESTP

ESTPs can definitely be suspicious of others, which is why they tend to research them. They might take time to look into someone’s background before actually letting them into their lives. ESTPs can actually remain suspicious even when they care for someone, which can be a bit challenging at times. They don’t like being this way, they simply realize that people don’t always do as they say.

ISFP

ISFPs are not usually suspicious of others, instead they want to find people to connect with. They often open their hearts in a way that can get them hurt, but this is who they are. ISFPs don’t like constantly being suspicious of others, but this can sometimes cause them to open up to people they should not trust. They simply don’t want to constantly live their lives doubting the sincerity of others, it just is not natural for them.

ESFP

ESFPs usually aren’t suspicious people, instead they prefer to be open and upfront. They are caring people who want to connect with others without constantly doubting them. ESFPs are not usually suspicious people, which can cause them to get hurt sometimes. They are open people who can often wear their hearts on their sleeve, which makes it challenging for them to avoid getting their feelings hurt.
