ESTP friendship compatibility: best friends with ESTJ. As a friend, ESTP is the “let's just go” friend, first to jump in the lake, first to talk to the band, first to suggest the thing everyone will tell stories about later. The stereotype makes ESTPs bold, funny and practical, the friend who lives in the present and turns a boring afternoon into an event. They can get restless with long talks about feelings or the future. In our friendship rule ESTP scores highest with ESTJ, who shares the S, E and T and makes sure the adventure has a plan B and a return ticket. The hardest friendship on paper is with INFP, the playlist maker, whose slow, reflective style is the opposite of an ESTP's fast lane.
