Welcome !
Let me start with the basic idea of personality types based on MBTI [Myers Briggs Type Indicator] and what they mean.
The MBTI test puts forward 16 personality types , each with specific characteristics and it states that everyone in the world would fall into one of these 16 categories. Though it might not be 100 % accurate for everyone , it does a very good job of describing why a person is who he is.
Note: I do not know whether the test scientifically correct . I am by no means an expert on this subject. I just felt like sharing this information and that is why I am writing this post.
So I researched a bit on this topic and found that I AM INTROVERTED. Finally , I got an explanation for my social behavior but it never answered the questions regarding my traits.
That is when I came across this MBTI personality test. Being really curious I attended the test and the result ... INTP is my personality type. Still wanting to make sure the result was correct I tried a few more versions of this test on other websites. Every single version of this test displayed the same answer.
Oh yeah! I am an INTP

Finally,
INTP : Introverted , Intuitive , Thinking ,Perceiving
Briefly , an INTP can be described as someone who seeks for logical explanations ; interested more in ideas and thoughts ; quiet , flexible and analytical.
I am not going to give a detailed explanation on the personality profile of an INTP since there are lots of websites out there doing it. You can use the links below to learn more

Reading a few forums and blogs gives me an impression that many INTPs feel bad about being one and they wish they could be someone else. I have a great news for those people to start feeling great about themselves.
"Hey INTPs !
Be proud that we are a rare personality type. A survey says that INTP is one of the rarest personality types especially for women.

How did I discover my MBTI Personality :
I had always felt that I never fit in with the crowd . My energy drains whenever I'm socializing and I need a lot of time for myself in order to gain back my energy. It is not that I hate people but I prefer being alone. Even though I expect logical explanations and tend to solve problems by logic I have always been fascinated by abstract ideas and concepts rather than the practical working of the ideas. I wanted to make sure that I wasn't some weird person and I wanted a logical explanation for my behavior.So I researched a bit on this topic and found that I AM INTROVERTED. Finally , I got an explanation for my social behavior but it never answered the questions regarding my traits.
