Marshall Eriksen (How I Met Your Mother)- ENFP Advocate (Extraverted Intuitive Feeling Perceiving)
ENFPs are both &amp;#8220;idea&amp;#8221; people and &amp;#8220;people&amp;#8221; people, who see everyone and everything as part of a whole. They want to both help and be liked and admired by other people, on both an individual and a humanitarian level. This is rarely a problem for the ENFP, as they are outgoing and warm, and genuinely&nbsp;like&nbsp;people. Some ENFPs have a great deal of zany charm, which can ingratiate them to more stodgy types in spite of their unconventionality.
ENFPs often have strong, if sometimes surprising, values and viewpoints.&nbsp;ENFP personalities are usually characterized by high levels of enthusiasm, especially when it comes to things that spark their imagination&ndash; in such cases, ENFPs can be very energetic and convincing, able to easily convince other people to join their cause.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

ENFP personalities are very emotional and sensitive, seeing feelings as something that everyone should take time to understand and express.&nbsp;People with this personality type are observant and intuitive, but can make serious mistakes trying to use their interpretation of other people&rsquo;s emotions as a basis for their decisions.
ENFPs can be the warmest, kindest, and most sympathetic of mates; affectionate, demonstrative, and spontaneous.&nbsp;But there is usually a trade-off: the partner must be willing to deal with the practical and financial aspects of the relationship, and the ENFP must be allowed the freedom to follow their latest path, whatever that entails.
ENFPs are non-conformists, following their own path and trusting their intuition. Their talents are numerous, but they all rely on the ENFP being given enough freedom. People with this personality type can quickly become impatient and dejected if they get stuck in a boring role, unable to freely express themselves &ndash; but when the ENFP finally finds their place in the world, their imagination, empathy and courage are likely to produce incredible results.
Robin: Well, I believe that you saw something perfectly normal, but you&amp;#8217;ve exaggerated it in your mind; you know, um, like the Loch Ness Monster.Marshall: If by &amp;#8220;like the Loch Ness Monster,&amp;#8221; you mean &amp;#8220;totally exists and is awesome,&amp;#8221; then, yeah, it&amp;#8217;s like the Loch Ness Monster.
&amp;#8220;I have to quit. I need to do better things with my life. There&amp;#8217;s an opening for an environmental lawyer at the National Resources Defense Council. Sure it pays less, but I&amp;#8217;d be saving the oceans, saving endangered species&hellip;&amp;#8221;
&amp;#8220;I like being friendly. I&amp;#8217;m not going to change that about myself.&amp;#8221;

&amp;#8220;Do you guys know why I&amp;#8217;m nice to everyone? It&amp;#8217;s because I don&amp;#8217;t care about baggage. Most people see another person walking down a street with that big heavy bag they&amp;#8217;re carrying, and they just walk on by. But not me.&nbsp;I look at them and say, &amp;#8216;Howdy, stranger. Can I give you a hand with that?&amp;#8217;&amp;#8221;
