'Blood|||Welcome, hope you'll feel at home here.  And I'll just add, since introverts are heavily misunderstood in the world, that introversion doesn't mean that you're a people hater. What I understood...|||Ok. I'm going to use my words here. I have two. Both involve endings of films, so spoilers ahead.  1. Blood Diamond At the end, when Dany Archer realizes that he's so close and yet he's not going...|||Dull|||I've never heard of this feature in INFPs. I'd actually guess that'd be an ENFP feature, since they are the ones who like human contact.  I hate when strangers touch me. I can manage a handshake,...|||Yes. Constantly. In my case, I think, apart from the idealism there is also perfectionism at work. I expect what I do to be of the highest standard, already perfect and I focus so much on the outcome...|||Ok I'm going to add a small advice. Might be nothing for you, might be something. I'm not going to get into the whole discussion on depression and what it is and what it's not. Mostly because I don't...|||Quarterlife Crisis|||My boyfriend is an INTP and get along perfectly fine. I'm not sure if that's a match for every INFP but his sense of logic can balance my emotional reactions quite well.   I don't imagine I could...|||You have a point. Rejection of people with views that are completely against logic, like racists, sexists and homophobes is a natural reaction, not only for INFPs, I hope. Obviously you're not going...|||I don't think you can simply decide to be an introvert or an extrovert. If you say you are just calling yourself those terms and simply naming them gives you a different feeling is interesting. I...|||Hi sorry, I'm going to throw in my INFP opinion, I hope you don't mind :wink:  My boyfriend is an INTP and it seems that a lot of people on this forum think that INFP and INTP are not a match. But...|||I think I sort-of understand what your ex was feeling. But in a different area of life: the professional one. When it comes to my career I behave like your ex. I keep saying I love it and don't want...|||If you still need people, I'm up for it :)|||It's till not completely clear to me when daydreaming becomes maladaptive daydreaming. There are lots of opinions here that this is just some made-up bullshit, but some people also wrote that it's an...|||So if I understand correctly, you're trying to actually re-define the phrase? That is interesting. I guess I didn't read your earlier posts with a full understanding. I wonder what's the phrase in...|||First of all: holy shit, man where are you from? The description of your country really freaked me out!  Further: I think, above all, don't be too hard on yourself. What you're going through is a...|||I think you don't understand what I'm saying. I'm not saying I don't want to develop myself and just stay on the intellectual level of a 10 year old. I just don't like the phrase growing up,...|||Growing up is a lie. There are no such thing as grown-ups. Just different humans who seem better or worse adjusted to the current society.  We can try and develop ourselves, gain more knowledge and...|||Thanks, I'm still pretty new to the jungian personality types, so it's always good to have some tips on what might be interesting.  I also like what you wrote about breaking some foolishness with...|||Wow this got me thinking. I actually got scared for a while. I've never heard of Maladaptive Daydreaming. Like OP, I'm a hypochondriac, so whenever I read something about a disease or a disorder, I...|||I actually used to be fluent in Spanish. I've forgotten a lot though. When you don't practice, languages fade.  Anyway, I like your drawings. I don't know anything about art and I can't draw...|||I don't know about other types, but I'll write what I dislike about myself:  Overanalyzing what people say and trying to find out if they are making fun of me or criticizing me.  Being my own...|||Well I can't say if all INTPs prefer saying it first, but I do think that when they are ready to say it, they mean it. but my INTP boyfriend said it to me after 2 months of our relationship when I...|||Bismuth Everybody is good at something. You might just not have realized your strengths yet.  Instead of trying to plan your entire future, try focusing on what you like to do NOW. It's pointless...|||Wel, I'm not sure if I identify with the old soul description, because I'm not sure about the soul and what it might or might not be, but when I was a kid, people frequently told me I seem older...|||Oh, thanks for clarifying. Shows how little I know about that :)    I always hate when people are being negative and discouraging. Some people in my field also keep being negative and say stuff...|||I don't know if somebody mentioned it already, but I'm just going to name one film. My absolute favourite:  Big Fish  I considered writing something about it, but seriously people- watch it! I...|||Haha I love this! Not to mention the pronunciation. I thought English has some weird ideas on how to pronounce some words (as opposed to how they're written) but French is a whole another level of...|||Rainbowphin I'm sorry to hear what you're going through. I'd say your parent's are the ones who need therapy. This such bullshit, telling people they can't make money with something. There is no such...|||Basilisk|||Adonnus Don't give up! I probably can't help you a lot because my method is understanding grammar and I go insane when I don't know how a senctence is constructed.   But I think you have to find a...|||My boyfriend is like that. I'm never sure if he's having fun when playing, because he just looks so focused. Probably running 10 different strategies in his head. It's funny how some stereotypes...|||well, sorry for the confusion, I meant that as a joke, actually. I have to work on makug my jokes in writing. I agree on the tv-license issue, but we have to pay for the potential TV-watching in...|||You can also look up the results of the election :wink: We prefer seeing the weather forecast than Trump's stupid face|||Poland|||I'm actually hearing The Once and Future King by T. H. White and also re-reading God Is Not Great by C. Hitchens (not at the same time, I can't multitask that well)|||I don't like the choice they made, but to be honest there wasn't much to choose from.   I guess we'll wait and see. I actually suspect he will get overwhelmed by the whole thing and leave the...|||I find it ridiculous too. I'm not even sure if it's ever been on the news. But then again, a lot of things don't get media coverage that they deserve.    I'm the same. I recently didn't get a job...|||leictreon  Have you considered talking to a professional about your problems? If it is depression, you should treat it. Have you talked to your parents about it?  All I can tell you is don't feel...|||Thank you for voicing your troubles.   It sounds a lot like a quarterlife crisis, which apparently is quite common in young people. There is quite a lot of information on it in the internet and...|||atamagasuita It's usually great, we actually want to get married next year. We have a lot of fun together and I love him very much. This is just a disclaimer, because I have a feeling that wat comes...|||If flirting is an INFP trait then I need to take the test again.  I have no idea how to flirt and I don't know when people are flirting with me either. Ive never even flirted with my boyfriend, but...|||Maybe I just misunderstood your message then. Thanks for explaining. I sort of got a lot of negativity towards emotional people and you said my bf deserves my gratitude for accepting my gifts, and so...|||I'm feeling frustrated and misunderstood right now. And very anxious. I have a job interview tomorrow...:unsure:|||I've just spent some time in the INTP forum. I think we're being seriously misunderstood there. Or are you guys really the attention- and romance-craving, crying at anything, logic-hating emotional...|||Seriously? Do you people think that all we want are romantic things, watch romantic films, cry when seeing any bloody proposal and get upset at anything? I can't speak for all NFs but that a...|||Hi guys I'm not an INTP, but my boyfriend is and I'm browsing this forum to try and understand him better.  I just wanted to tell you that in 4,5 years that we're together I've seen him angry once....|||Hello good people,  I'm not sure if anyone here would be interested in my situation but I thought I'd share anyway and maybe complain a little about a life with an INTP  and, finally ask for...|||I think I know the feeling you are talking about. I'm not sure how to call it, but in my case, I think, at first it's hostility and defensiveness towards the speaker and then come sthe self-disgust,...'
