Who ISFPs Are Most Compatible With
ISFP’s personality compatibility is based on the cognitive alignment of the types, their temperament, and their interaction style. ISFPs are as follows:
- Cognitive functions: Fi Se Ni Te
- Temperament (Kiersey): Artisans
- Interaction style (Linda Berens): Behind the Scenes
There is no perfect 100% compatible match. ISFPs are scored for their compatibility with other personality types based on four factors- communication, passion, friendship, and partnership. A match that is high in one is often lower in another. It is up to the individual to decide which factors are most important for them in a relationship.
Communication
ISFPs have the greatest compatibility in communication with types that share the same cognitive functions. The cognitive functions are like languages our minds speak and when someone has the same functions, we do not have to translate our minds to them. ISFPs speak the languages of reality and values. As a result, ISFPs communication compatibility can be broken down as follows:
- High Compatibility: ISFP, ESFP, INTJ, ENTJ
- Medium High Compatibility: INFP, ENFP, ESTP, ISTP
- Medium Low Compatibility: ISTJ, ESTJ, ENFJ, INFJ
- Low Compatibility: ENTP, INTP, ESFJ, ISFJ
Partnership
For partnership, ISFPs are most compatible with EJ types- meaning ENTJ, ENFJ, ESTJ, and ESFJ. Together, they are the most efficient and get the most done. The two balance each other out and their working styles and the EJ helps the ISFP put their ideas to action. They do not clash with each other, preventing conflict and complacency.
Friendship
For friendship, ISFPs tend to be compatible with fellow SP types. This means they have the greatest compatibility for companionship with ISFPs, ESFPs, ESTPs, and ISTPs. Simply, these types see the world through a similar lens and so can easily get along and enjoy activities together.
Passion
ISFPs have the greatest amount of passion compatibility in a relationship with those that have opposite cognitive functions to them. For them, ENTPs, INTPs, ISFJs, and ESFJs are polar opposites to them and create a spark. However, this passion can also turn to the most electric fights. As a result, these types together are the most likely to resolve their arguments with “physical activities.”
