What is Jordan Matter’s Personality Type?
Of a fairly introspective nature, Jordan is attentive to their special inner qualities which enable them to perceive the very essence of the people they meet, the situations they encounter, and the objects they see. They have the ability to understand through their intuition. This faculty is based upon an openness to the other, and thus a certain duality: a budding extroversion, and the predominance of the object over the subject (themselves) in their consciousness. As a result, they have a strong sense of the group and would sacrifice their own ego rather than commit something that is a sin in their eyes, neglecting their social obligations or failing to fulfill their duties to the people they are close to. They can sometimes be perceived by others as unreliable or untrustworthy, due to a sort of opportunism or disloyalty.
However, these are superficial characteristics. The real reason for their behavior is psychological and resides in the fact that they are ready to do anything to maintain the harmony of the group (or simply satisfy the expectations of the other). However, they sometimes lack self-assertion, and this makes them contradictory and unreliable when they face certain superficial decisions.
Moreover, they have a chameleon-like ability to blend in with situations and prevailing moods. They are thus quite a success in social settings, and they thrive on friendships, partnerships, networks, and corporate liaisons. Their mind is amazingly flexible, arranging harmonious and productive encounters between people and ideas. All of their emotional health is invested in a desire to participate, to mingle, to exchange. Although they are consciously aware of an ardent desire to be sociable, unconsciously they blame themselves for failing to achieve their ideal goal, which always seems to elude them. This is why they sometimes have phases of discouragement, followed by renewed zeal in their work efforts or group participation. Because they are always seeking the perfect group, the ideal form of cooperation, they sometimes despair of ever attaining it. They have a natural tendency to find common ground for people, to reconcile differing opinions and viewpoints, and they are partial to any arrangement which promotes cooperation or fellowship.
Because they are not aggressive by nature, they know how to make peace; they are a skillful diplomat and go-between. As a corollary to their opening to society, they are closely related to their environment. The society in which they move contributes in large part to the formation of their character and attitude. Through social contacts and friendships, they have elaborated a personal code of ethics which reconciles societal norms and the values their family, friends, and relations have passed on to them. It is important for them to find a way to make all these components harmonize, or they will feel a bit lost and bewildered. They need recognition. They sometimes attach great importance to other people’s opinions of them. They enjoy love and appreciation and are touched by praise as much as they are upset by criticism. They have a vital need for others and loathes solitude. Emotional functions are central to their psyche, and the encounter with a kindred spirit could be a turning point for them, a momentous event in their life. Since they are aware of this, and their tactfulness makes them quite successful with their love interests, they may be content to go from affair to affair without ever settling down, out of the fear of shutting out an even greater possibility for passionate love.
They love to charm and be charmed and excel at the subtle art of amorous conquest, the pleasure of laughter and chat which hints at the promise of even greater pleasure in store. They are skilled at alluding to unnamed urges while seeming to engage in polite conversation.
Jordan Matter is a pleasure lover and will find self-fulfillment in creative activities.
