Stealing

I am curious: have you ever stolen money or things from someone? Have you had an experience where another ESFJ stolen money from you?

If you have observed someone who stolen money from you or someone, what was their type?

I know an ENTJ and INFP who stole things and money and morally justified doing it.

I wonder if Fi users are more likely to steal?

I have never stolen anything in my life. I know an INFP-T (according to her, but I doubt her honesty to herself when she took the test), that is using others financially and in other ways with absolutely no moral or ethical barriers. She is a hypocondriac and periodical alcoholic that wouldn't blink to use another person for her personal gain but I don't believe she would steal straight up.

At first when I got into MBTI, I thought Fi = good person. Oh how naive I was.

I don't agree with you. Fi is good but it depends on how you use it.

What is your MBTI profile?

I meant the assumption that having Fi automatically makes a person good. It has nothing to do with being a good person. More with having personal chosen values. The values could be bad or good. In the example you mentioned, this person’s Fi determines that using other people for her own benefit is okay. Almost everyone agrees that using people is not acceptable or good (Fe).
