Jenny Curran MBTI Personality Type

Personality

What personality type is Jenny Curran? Jenny Curran is an ESFP personality type in MBTI, 4w3 - sx/so - 469 in Enneagram, SLUEI in Big 5, EIE in Socionics.

Well ESFP seems to fit very well Just another thing I always get angry when people tell how awful of a person she is. She does pretty awful things to forrest but not because she wants to hurt him. She was abused as a child and in an attempt to makes sense of it she comes to the unhealthy conclusion that that happened because she is an awful person. (Stuff like that is common in abuse victims in the real world to) she think that she isn’t worthy of Forrests love and tries to protect him from beeing with an awful person which she is in his mind. You can see that as she matures (and maybe got therapy?) she realizes how much she had hurt him and tries to make up for it. I truly think she doesn’t call him so he can take care of her but because she wants to make things right.
