The probability of being with an ideal girl

Two nights ago, at a cafe i was with 2 girls who forcefully argue that it is highly improbable to be in a relationship with an ideal lover.

Lets consider,

According to the Jung Typology, I am an ENTP type person, and Keirsey’s typology says we only constitutes at most 2% of the entire population.

Lets say, if my ideal person is someone who has the same typology as myself, that would be 2%
but simply being an ENTP is not enough, there are other criteria that needs to be met in order for that ENTP to be my ideal lover. These criteria are:

Age, I can only accept anyone who is 5 year older or younger, if only 10% of the population fits that profile, than, only 10% of the total 2% of the entire population would fit my desired profile.
making it 0.2%

lets say half of that 0.2% are boys, too bad i only like girls, = 0.1% left
lets say half of that 0.1% is in an significant romantic relationship, = 0.05%
lets say i am not attracted to half of that 0.05%, = 0.025%
lets say a quater of that 0.025% dont find me attractive making it, = 0.01875
lets say, i need someone who is intelligent and speaks at least 2 languages, and lets assumes only 1 in 5 ENTPs meets that requirement, that would bring the figure down to, 0.00375%

Which means there is one person in every 26667 people that would fit my ideal lover profile and be willing to date me. Therefor on this island with the population of 230 million, there are only 863 people who fits that profile, Hence, i am single.

Take the test and find out if you are an ENTP person.

Reexamining myself

Between quiting my doctoral candidacy 2 years ago and now, there have been lots of soul searching. I need a new theme for my life. Today, I was just thinking how i am now different to my 2003 year self when i last took the Jung Typology test.

When i was 23, i was:

• i apply rational decision making process to almost everything i do,
• a successful masters student at the university of queensland and on my way to PhD
• i had a clear career path,
• highly goal orientated, i had a concrete 5 year plan, and life plan
• and i strategically manage my career
• i wanted to be an university professor
• i had lots of friends,
• very analytical, i would systematically analyze my relations with friends and girl friend.
• i had many rigid principles that i commit my self too.
• i dislike uncertainty
• i try to be liked by everyone i meet
• i was ambitious
• using Keirsey’s typology categorizations i was clearly an ENTJ

and in my Post doctoral candidate life i am:

• Starting a new career direction, i am going into the corporation world, joining Kyocera.
• i am trying to broaden my career path, taking on unfamiliar things
• I am going with flow, i have an extremely and vague 2 year plan,
• i have only one core principle that i adhere too
• i am exited by chaos and uncertainty
• i care less about people who do not like me.
• i am more willing to take risk,
• i like to thing that anything is possible,
• using Keirsey’s typology categorizations I am now tilting towards a ENTP

Take the test and find out what type of person you are.
