That's about the fifth or sixth time I've gotten INFP, so I'm pretty sure it's right, and those numbers sound about right. First time I've done one with a preferred type, though, and it sounds right on. I'd love to be a little more extroverted, but balanced out. And I probably am attracted to people more like me, at least realistically. I'm sometimes attracted to people who are more opposite of me, but that's probably mostly because more extroverted people are easier to notice. Also, I think there's often a fine line between who I'm attracted to and who I want to be.

Stability results were low which suggests you are very worrying, insecure, emotional, and anxious.
Orderliness results were moderately low which suggests you are, at times, overly flexible, improvised, and fun seeking at the expense of reliability, work ethic, and long term accomplishment.
Extraversion results were moderately low which suggests you are reclusive, quiet, unassertive, and secretive.
trait snapshot:
messy, irritable, depressed, fragile, worrying, emotionally sensitive, does not like to lead, phobic, weird, suspicious, low self control, paranoid, frequently second guesses self, dependent, unproductive, introverted, weak, strange, unassertive, submissive, familiar with the dark side of life, feels invisible, rash, vain, anti-authority, heart over mind, low self concept, disorganized, not good at saving money, avoidant, daydreamer, unadventurous
Those all describe me, but I wouldn't say they describe all of me. I tend to be a little too self-critical, so that probably complicates things. Also, a lot of times I felt like the questions needed a two or three dimensional graph to describe my answer, whereas the question seemed to overgeneralize. For example, if I'd like to be at a party with some of my friends but not with others, how do I answer "would you like to be at a party?" Or "I would find it hard to sleep with someone" considering I'm planning on waiting until marriage. I would hopefully find it easy to sleep with my wife and hard to sleep with anyone else. Or "I think everything will work out in the end." I do believe it'll all work out for me eventually in heaven, but I'm not so sure about the immediate... which did it want? Or "I feel that my life lacks direction." I do think there's an overall direction in the grand scheme of things, but on the scale of the next ten or twenty years or so, I'm pretty much lost right now. So yeah, overall it seems like my religion might be kind of screwing with the test results. Which could be a good sign.
Over the last year or so I've been thinking about my internal clashes between my idealism and my pragmatism. I think I like the idea of people and would ideally love to be surrounded by people most of the time, but I've been so jaded by the people I've known that I'd usually rather not bother with people and be alone, rather than taking a chance. I'd like to be around good people, but if the choice is between being with people who might end up letting me down or to just be alone, I'd usually choose aloneness. So I guess non-risk-taking factors in there. But when it asks stuff like "do you like to be alone?", I'm not sure what level of liking/wanting it means (there are lots of things that I don't want, per se, but do wish I wanted, for a multitude of reasons). Also, my emotions and reason, while usually complementary, don't always mesh nicely with each other.
Also, I think I just set a record for Most Romantic.

- It's not paranoia if they really are out to get you.
- My apparent schizoidia is probably largely a result of being a homeschooled only child with no neighbors for so long (I did have siblings, but the age difference was big enough that they didn't really count until later when they started catching up).
- I really doubt the Schizotypal one. I only have two or three truly close relationships, and I love them. And I wish I had some more. Specifically, one with a female would be nice.
- I was kind of surprised that my Antisocial wasn't higher, though if you're going by "individual shows a pervasive disregard for, and violation of, the rights of others", then yeah, that's not me. I don't go out of my way to violate people, I'm just not usually comfortable around them (though again, my idealism vs. pragmatism thing comes into play here a bit).
- I like to think I'm more stable than I really am, I think.
- 50% on "individual often displays excessive emotionality and attention seeking in various contexts" is a pretty good estimate, I guess. Though it's really more situational than probablistic. Actually, I might be kind of bipolar.
- I enjoy admiration and stuff, maybe a bit too much, but I don't think I really need it.
- Everything else sounds about right.

Your score on Openness to Experience is average, indicating you enjoy tradition but are
willing to try new things. Your thinking is neither simple nor complex. To others you
appear to be a well-educated person but not an intellectual.
Some of those definitely seem pretty far out of proportion. Conscientiousness seems way too low (especially considering my 23% Hedonism from the other one) and Neurosis is definitely way too high (there's no way my Vulnerability is 97%). I'm probably going to retake it sometime when I'm not so tired.
