'This is so awesome!  YES, this is what I was trying to say.  Now I get it.  By doing Se activities, you are getting out of your Ni, which is your dominant function.  This is so cool!  Yes, these...|||Hello everyone,  The 2 INTJs that I know are really into hiking and other similar outdoor activities like skiing and biking.  Do you like these kinds of outdoor activities as well?  These INTJs...|||God no!  I would much rather walk, walk to Starbuck's for example, to sit down and have a latte, have a life is beautiful moment, and walk back home.  Walking to work would also be ideal for me.  I...|||To all the women INFPs out there:  Do you have problems with women T's?  I have a lot problems dealing with them.  I am like a T detector.  I can handle T-ness in men because I generally don't make...|||Hi everyone,  I am a mother, and there have been a lot of firsts this month.  First day of school, first day of preschool, etc, etc, etc...  After every first, I get this incredible...|||I find that certain types seem more likely to truly want to understand MBTI, and are truly able to grasp the concepts.  The more minority, misunderstood, and abstract thinking a person is, the...|||Yes, you sound like me.  I LOVE people!  And I want good, true, honest friendships.  I prefer 1-on-1.  I was also very shy as a child.  I think that I couldn't handle how much I loved people.  I...|||Hmmm...  I don't have a problem with jealousy, but I have a lot of friends who do.  I think I figured jealousy out in my 20's when I quit the elite University program I was in, and went to Europe to...|||Very interesting question.  I have 3 children under 5.5.  It has been trial and error, but I feel that I now understand what is the best way for an INFP to do the discipline thing.  At least I have...|||http://personalitycafe.com/infp-articles/76770-recognizing-inferior-function-ifps.html  This is an excellent article on the Topic.  It is an excerpt from the book I read about the inferior...|||I read that Te as the inferior functions manifests itself in a strong dislike of illogic and dishonesty.  It means that we INFPs want things to be clear and well-explained and logical, and we...|||I loved teaching ESL one-on-one.  I love the idea of being a regular classroom teacher, but I know that I would care too much about doing a good job.  I would care too much keeping every single...|||1. You have the chance to meet someone with whom you have the most  satisfying love imaginable- the stuff of dreams. Sadly, you know that in  six months the person will die. Knowing the pain that...|||I don't like NTs.  ITs are so cold and distant.  ETs are so arrogant.  I can only make friends with F's.  I wonder why I am different from the other NFs.  Hmmm...|||This is my view on INFPs and logic.  I think I finally understand it.  (See my 2nd post in that thread.)  There are definitely logical INFPs out there, but we may belong to a minority group.  I call...|||Oh, I know!!!  Men are usually left-brained, and women are usually right-brained.  Moreover, men are usually T, and women are usually F.  So, people are assuming that F's are right-brained, and...|||Hello everyone,  I am definitely an INFP.  I am very I, very N, very F, and very P.  The functions also fit me very well.    One thing that bothers me about this forum is that I get the...|||Yes, I agree that many S's mistype themselves as N's.  I used to be kind of confused, thinking, How can an INFP be like that?  Are there different types of INFPs?  I guess they are just less N...|||I think it would have sucked!  Forced into being very Christian.  You didn't have much of a choice back then.  Forced into being friends with very S-y neighbours...  The community aspect would have...|||Thank you for all your observations!  I really enjoyed reading your post!  Regarding TPs, TPs have Fe down low under Ti.  So, they do have an F-function, but it is so low.  I don't feel their...|||That is interesting that you guys tend to get along with INTPs...  Wow...  I clash with them like you wouldn't believe.  I have big problems with Ti-Fe people (TPs).  I can't seem to feel their...|||LOL!  Awesome, thanks!  :-)|||I have another question for the ENFJs.  Are you drawn to some types more than others?  You seem to get along with everybody.  Are there types that you are drawn to that make you want to become closer...|||One thing that I finally convinced my ENFP friend of is that my Love Language is to help people.  I feel so loved if people call me with a problem.  I feel much more loved if someone calls me with...|||[QUOTE=Happy about Nothing.;3817279]Exactly, and ENFJs are more resolute. We plan, we think things through, we weigh out potential consequences. To think that an INFP doesn't think about these things...|||I am an INFP, and I love ENFPs.  There is one thing that I don't understand.  When I am down and in this really negative Fi-state, I reach out to my friends.  Talking with them helps so much.  It...|||I found some interesting observations from this website: How ENFJs Can Spot INFPs - wambly.weebly.com  From website:  INTERACTIONS BETWEEN ENFJ AND INFP In  my personal experience, ENFJs and...|||Wow!  In the last few years, my friends have all been P's.  I didn't notice this trait in myself because we both dove right into the friendship.  Sometimes it worked out, sometimes not.  But, it was...|||LOL!  I am trying hard to process this.  Is it saying that INFPs become close too fast, forcing the ENFJ to let down their walls, but then the INFP could change their mind at the drop of the hat, and...|||Yes, I am extremely intense.  I have always been grateful that I am a female.  It is normal for women to have intense friendships with other women.  Or, at least it is acceptable.  For an INFP male? ...|||This makes sense.  Yes, I don't like group events...  Once there are 4 people, I either don't talk, or I talk, but I don't like myself as I talk.  I am not someone I like in a group setting.  I can't...|||Yes, I think it is typical behaviour, especially if you are not one of the INFP's best friends.  In my opinion, INFPs have 2 categories: Close Friends and Acquaintances.  Relatives usually fall into...|||This leads me to a final question.  Instead of us trying to figure you out, would you feel better if we complimented you?  Do compliments make you feel loved?|||I watched this video a while back, but there was something that he said that rang a bell with me.  I too am very disturbed if someone tells me that they like me or gives me a big compliment.  Yes, I...|||Thank you Happy about nothing and Niffer.  It was interesting when you mentioned INFP thinking they know you.  I think we really do feel that we know other Fi's, and then we generalize to...|||That was really interesting what you wrote!  Thank you!  I think this is my problem.  I feel that it is always ME who drives my friendship further with ENFs...  With a shy ENFP close friend of mine,...|||Hello everyone,  I am an INFP.  For me, friends are either very close, or they are merely an acquaintance.  My close friends are usually ENFP, INFP, and INFJ.    There is something I love about...|||No, not typical woman.  I am an F, but that really is the only thing woman about me.  Wouldn't the typical woman be more like ESFJ and ISFJ?|||LOL!  OMG! I am exactly like that!  There is a common park very near to my house.  Whenever my kids see another kid in the park, they beg to go outside and play.  If the parent of the child outside...|||I am not gay, but I didn't have my first relationship until I was 28 years old.  My 2nd relationship at 29 was my husband.  Some of us are late bloomers.  I would say to develop yourself, study...|||No, I wouldn't enjoy a relationship with an ENTP.  Too much debating, not enough talking about personal stuff, and I don't appreciate it that they always point out the other side, as if I am the...|||My closest friends are NF's.  I have had close friendships with all NF types.  (INFJ, INFP, ENFP, and ENFJ)  I love them all so much.  That NF-ness is so wonderful...  I am a very intense person, so...|||A lesson that I had to learn in life was:  If they have the right to ask, I have the right to say no.  The main thing I learned in my twenties was learning how to listen to my gut, and don't be...|||I feel this way towards all of my best friends.  (I have moved a lot since I graduated from high school, and therefore had to make new best friends.)  Anyway, yes, this feeling is what I live for.  I...|||LOL!  I rest my case.  Send her a letter.  :-)|||I think we should make a distinction between INFPs liking to write and receive letters, and what Dr. Horrible is asking.  He is asking if he should write THE NEWS that he likes this girl and he...|||No, don't give this information in a letter.  Say it to her personally.  It will make things awkward when you do meet in person if you say it in a letter.  INFPs are good at writing, and we are...|||I would wait for you to make your move.  After all, you are the man and she is the woman.  She will wait for you to make your move.  It doesn't matter if you wait.  She will wait.  If she has waited...|||I also laughed at the title.  Yes, I can work very hard, but my wandering mind prevents me from being the typical work-a-holic that you would picture an ENTJ/ESTJ to be...  That sure ain't me...|||Hmmm  Interesting post.  I do open up completely to people, but only people I feel that I can connect to on a deep level.  I have to really like them, and identify with them.  I WANT to open up to...'
