'I definitely like what you had to say.|||It's not you, and don't ever let yourself think it's you. Maybe after much more time with you, he'll become more positive. But like you said, a negative person is likely to stay that way. It's...|||There is nothing wrong with being selfish in certain cases. But this is selfish on a high magnitude, because you'd be taking the easiest way out because you're too scared to work through it, and...|||Yes, it is definitely a defense mechanism.  I don't know what advice to give you, but hopefully it will alleviate itself.|||It also breaks my heart to read all of this. But it's reality.  I agree with whoever brought up the car thing. I find myself quite often walking down the road and imagining myself just.. lightly...|||I know this was supposed to be a slight joke, but, I know a male INFJ, and I'd agree with a lot of this. Maybe it's just cos I love INFJs so much, but, it all seems quite accurate. Except for number...|||You seem super interesting. Welcome to the forum!|||Welcome! Hope to see you post some excerpts from your novel!|||Rofl! I always let people know that I rarely make sense to anyone but myself. And that sometimes I don't even make sense to myself! But whatever. xD|||Awh! This made me feel so good. Yeah, I can definitely see a LOT of potential, and things are going well so far. The only snags I see are just petty arguments we'll both get over quickly.|||Thanks guys. I don't think selfishness is an issue for me. Well, we're all selfish to a certain degree, but, I'll usually put him before myself.  But...  How so? I know people tend to think INFPs...|||Kisses aren't for just anybody, though. Random interwebz hugs are fine. But kisses? Must be EARNED!|||I don't think it's something that will ever be alleviated, either.|||I feel this way quite often. Someone asked me once if I thought life would be better and easier if we all didn't have emotions. I though, better? No. Easier? Yes. I'm glad I at least have emotions...|||I've built up a lot of anger for the system as well. I think it's one of those things you have to endure for as long as possible, until you get out.|||^^^^ /Agree|||..Perfect.|||I wanted to say something, but I couldn't. It left me speechless. I very much so identify with your friend, I suppose.|||This is one of those things that made my stomach drop, and my mouth open, ready to spit something out, but... nothing.|||In all honesty, there will be no telling if he likes you without putting yourself out there. As an INFP, even I think we're probably the hardest to read.     Couldn't have said it better myself....|||Weeeeee.    That's being INFP, for ya.|||You're completely correct. I don't disagree in the least.  When I said I've come to accept it and live with it, I was referring to how some people just don't care, and some do. That's something...|||My brother is an INTJ, and he has one tattoo currently. It's a saying that he lives by, on his forearm. Something about how the wise are completely full of doubt.  He told me once that when he gets...|||See, not that people who say things like this aren't funny, they are. It makes me smile, and I envy you. I just don't understand how you can say things like this so well.  It feels, for me anyway,...|||Haha! It's a couple months old but it made me smile.  Good thing you're cute, too. I'd welcome it.   Hugs for all!  I will only accept hugs where chest is on chest, though. Must be close. No...|||I really have no idea how to put pictures in here. Just attach them with the little paper clip? Whatever.   I'm fascinated by tattoos and piercings. Such an interesting way to express one's self....|||Wow, sweetie, I must talk to you. There is NOTHING wrong with you, at all. Don't let school get you down, I tell people all the time that grades do not measure intelligence. They measure the ability...|||Thanks! I put a lot of thought into my tattoos. Usually once I'm very certain on a tattoo, I don't change my mind on it for a while. A lot of people don't get tattoos because they change their mind...|||I was suffering from hardcore depression for about two years. Apparently had a form of psychosis, too. But I also have recently gotten over it, or, I'm still moving up, and I'm starting to be much...|||I just started dating an ISFP, and I can already tell he is very dedicated and monogamous and very caring. He just likes to take care of ones he loves, and he's picky about who he will go after. A...|||I'd love to help out! I want to get a big pheonix on my back as soon as I can. Wings wrap around my rib cages, tail go down and around my thigh. Pretty sweet. Represents new life, I think it'll be a...|||I'm wondering some ISFP and/or INFP opinions on how a relationship between the two works out. My new boyfriend is an ISFP, and he and I seem to work very well, so far. Anything I should be worried...|||I couldn't read through all of this either, but I'm eager to share. :D  I like it getting rough. I like biting, and getting bitten. Pulling hair and having my pulled. I like being thrown around,...|||Haha, well, I wasn't saying when I smoke I don't get high, I do. I was saying it's not really like I smoke to get high, I just smoke to put a smile on my face. Helps me get through the days...|||I wanna thank all of you guys, a lot. :)|||Hon, some guys just can't pull it off, they feel silly and therefore look goofy, like you probably did. :) Do whatchu do, and they'll like you. I actually have never dated a guy who wears a leather...|||In all honesty, weed puts me in a good mood, and when I'm in a good mood, I'm relaxed. So, I tend to be a lot more friendly, and open. I agree with not smoking to get high. I smoke to lighten my...|||I don't necessarily agree. I don't think experiences shape us, they're catalysts to who we really are. Everything I've ever gone through didn't make me who I am, it showed me who I am, you know? So I...|||I've definitely seen that you ENFP males are very drawn to us INFP females. :tongue:|||Personally, I like the guys who are badass, but who can be sweet when needed. I love the badass look, I always say, I like 'em dirty. But in the end, I need a sweetheart to care for me.|||Why do I let my heart beat to the same drum of cliches? Being a mere pedal on the daisy on the wall...  Letting my ears drown in the monotonous tsunami of tones... Feeling my eyes visibly show...|||Me, tooooo! Which is why I also hate it sometimes. I think people tend to understand us so much more one on one, but in groups of people we seem like the weird ones. I enjoy being different, and...|||From personal experience, I know going into a situation constantly saying, This isn't going to work out, this isn't going to work out, this isn't going to work out, you psyche yourself out until it...|||Wow, I think I'm completely different than most INFPs. I make sure to let a person know I'm interested, by asking them questions. One of the first things I asked my current boyfriend was, What...|||I want you to know, I've read some of your posts, and you're brilliant. I love this.    Personally, I can't express my love to someone until I know they love me first. I only recently started...|||You guys make me feel less cool. I don't see colors when I hear music, I feel feelings in my stomach, like a watermelon is growing inside. Don't think that's the same thing.|||Man, dude. Is there any hope? Haha.|||I think humans are just naturally fearful of opening up to a certain degree. It takes the right people to be the catalyst to our hearts. It is difficult, especially with the whole showing emotion...|||It's astonishing how much I have the ability to love and hate the same traits about myself. I don't know if it's just an INFP thing, or people in general, but I am constantly ripping my hair out....|||I definitely had a very similar experience recently, and I can completely see this and agree with this. Well, most of it. The ISFPs feel for people very similarly to INFPs, they just go about it in a...'
