'Love is glorious and terrifying. It is the strongest thing you can feel. When you love, you are at your most intimate. But love is fragile. It needs a careful hand, or it will fade and break. If you...|||I play three computer games. I like games in which I only have to kill things if I feel like it (Which is rare.) and that I have a lot of freedom to move about and bend the world to my will.  I...|||I think true intimacy is possible. It just takes a lot of growth, a lot of courage, and a dash of luck.   Now, is it is possible for me? I don't know. I have my fair share of issues, and although I...|||When I'm with him. . .  I was a very unhappy child, so definitely not that.|||Yes, I think that perhaps I wasn't reading the signals that he was giving me about his feelings. But, I realize now that he does care about me, and my feelings, just that I don't quite know how to...|||Listener Now, this I understand. I certainly feel that other people see relationships through a different light than I do. But then I wonder: Are they right or am I? Am I just viewing things through...|||I'm afraid I don't quite understand what you are trying to say. I think it is impossible to be an INFP without self doubt. Relationships become harder, just due to our type.  Are you trying to say...|||The books aren't even worth it for me if I don't develop a crush on one of the characters! I always do, though, so no worries there.|||Lol, I'm not quite ready to give up on people fully. I'm going to find someone perfect for me, maybe the perfect person just isn't this person.   Although, I am very, very attached to my soft...|||Oh, no! It isn't your fault at all. I was sad when I made this thread, and I'm really happy to be getting support. It really helps to know that other people have gone through this, too. That I'm not...|||Why are you ignoring me? Are you ignoring me? Do you care at all what I feel? I had thought that you weren't as cold as you sometimes seemed, but perhaps I was wrong. I had thought you would never...|||Yes, that is exactly what I feel. So the relationship ended? Well, nothing seems to be boding well for my relationship. I suppose all the wishful thinking in the world isn't going to save me from...|||Yes, you are probably right. He doesn't want something as serious as I do, and I'm kind of just hurting myself trying to make him be more emotional than he is. Maybe I should just give up on him? It...|||I love to sleep. I completely adore my dreams. It is the one time I can just let go, and no one will look down upon me for being unrealistic. I don't have to worry about what people will think or if...|||I do agree that these things happen naturally with the right person, but I feel as though we could really have something. That this could just be a speed bump in the road to happiness and to love.  ...|||This is exactly how I feel. I say something that is really important to me, and he reacts by making a joke. And it hurts me so much, because I am trying to be open with him. His joking makes me feel...|||I am sooo open with him. I just want him to be open with me. Because I've been more open with him than I've ever been with anyone before. I certainly don't want to trick him. I want to have an open...|||I would like to use a dating site, but it seems kind of scary and strange. I wouldn't know what to do with myself.|||Dear 9w8 Oh, I'm sure about the 5w4. I have many, many, many five qualities. I read the nine description, and it really didn't fit me. But thank you for the suggestion. I'm very set on my 5w4. It...|||I'm currently in a relationship with someone who keeps his feelings fairly close to his chest. Which is okay, usually I do too. But in this particular situation I feel very empty. If he cared about...|||I know I am INXX. But the rest is difficult. I am constantly questioning it, even though I get strong scores in ever category for INFP in tests.|||Dear part of myself that thinks she may be an INTJ/INFJ/INTP.  You are none of these things. You will never be any of these things. Just because an INXX writes something that could have been...|||Need some love.|||I'm with randomcouchpotato on this one. I was certainly the tortured soul in high school. Of course, I was also very busy trying to be an ENFP, which made me seem less tortured, but actually made me...|||I would love to be completely silent. But it would bother the people around me, so I suppose I'll never get the chance.|||No, I'm not afraid of death at all. I don't know what happens in the afterlife, or if we are just gone, but not knowing doesn't scare me. I hope to not be raped and murdered, sure. The actual death...|||It makes me happy. Lol. And I'm kind of a newbie. But I like feeling normal, if only for a little while.|||I want the love that is in my head; The perfect love. But I don't mean that the person has to be perfect. Far from it. Many of the qualities that I look for in my true love are not considered...|||I'm currently in a relationship with someone who doesn't understand the amount of space I need. I avoid him sometimes and we recently had a break. I don't want to break up with him, and like him a...|||The wise accept reality without being resigned to it.|||When I am happy, I can't imagine what it was like to be sad. When I am sad, I can't believe I'll ever be happy. I don't think I'm more unhappy than other people, just more entrenched in that...|||If you were over her, then it would be okay to keep her as a friend. But you're not over her. So if you want to get over her, then you would be doing yourself a favor by blocking her.|||Oh, me too. I have seen him, and he seems happy while I am here dying a little bit inside. I feel like an awful person for saying this, and I would never wish him pain, but his happiness makes my...|||I can't offer you advice, but I can say that I feel very similarly. I think INFPs hold love and relationships very highly, and when they don't work after we have put so much of ourselves into them,...|||Results  Your Moralising Quotient is: 0.21.  Your Interference Factor is: 0.00.  Your Universalising Factor is: 0.00.  Well, that was icky.|||I completely agree with everything that is said here. A month is nothing to lose and everything to gain.|||I would ask someone on a group date instead of a one one one because I would be afraid that I wouldn't be able to make enough conversation, and a group takes the pressure off of me.|||Oh, there are too many scary people on the internet for that.   Plus, I like my anonymity. It is like a warm blanket for my identity.|||Oh, it makes me sad. The one in our community went under and I cried. (Just a little bit. I have some great childhood memories at that bookstore.)|||A double major in Finance and Accounting. Then on to law school.|||I have eight, which is normal for me.|||Hello! Why'd you choose to come to PerC?  We're both the same Enneagram type!  I'm the first female on this thread!|||The first three drinks make me such a flirt. Then four comes and pushes me over the edge on to Why doesn't anyone l-love m-me? *sob*.  It gets even less pretty after that.|||I'm a little bit late at being new. . . lol. I was intending to, but then I got distracted by looking at my cat's eyes. Which I think might be quite typical.|||Oh, me! Me!   I love that feeling when you barely know a person and you think you're attracted to them, but you really aren't sure yet. You imagine what it must be like to talk to them, wonder if...|||I was awful at it, and it bored me.|||I have this same question. I get typed as INFP, but I think I may be INFJ.  I am not afraid of conflict, unlike the INFP profile. I am decisive, unlike the INFP profile. I am disorganized, unlike...|||When you make decisions, do you regularly take into consideration other people's feelings? It doesn't need to be in a kind way, just that when you do something, if you think I wonder how this will...|||Oh, I've got like half of these and I only think I'm pathetic once a month or so. (Although, at this point I've narrowed it down to three stuffed animals...and one of them is me sized.)|||I sometimes feel like this too. I almost always test INFP, and every letter on its own seems to fit, but. . .  When I look at the individual functions, I get Si Ne (or Ni) Ti Fi. Which I know isn't...'
