Before you are thoroughly confused, allow me to suggest that maybe none of us know what was going through her...|||I really just needed to understand where you were coming from. I found it difficult to understand why you didn't believe preferences were fluid. I understand now. It seems that I don't believe much...|||OK. First, what criteria are you referring to? I ask because my response only took into consideration what criteria I have changed, but it may not be what you even meant.|||I may be wrong.

He is also a Taurus. oooooooooooooh|||You're not being an asshole. If anything, I see that you understand that a relationship requires sacrificing innate personality traits (understanding that her resisting your natural type does not...|||I completely understand what you are saying, but your premise defies logic. No matter the explanations. Your interpretation of the definition suggests a subjective impression.|||Oh. I see what you mean. Then I would disagree with you.

I was curious to see how other INFJs feel about it and if they deal with it.   Your post was a huge confirmation...|||No. Actually you weren't supplying the definition of the word preference.
