'I'm working on maintaining my 'non-processed' foods diet.  I'm working on getting past the emotional waterfall of loving someone who either does not want to or cannot love me back.  I want to meet an...|||Cool thread.  I enjoyed reading through it.  Disclaimer: feelings are below, but they are about the INTP I know, as I see him.  I've known one confirmed INTP for about two years.  I really do...|||For the OP - I think everything I thought has been addressed.  I think the OP meant his statements about single moms a little different than how it came off.  In fact, as I was reading it I wasn't...|||I think I don't mind Se that much.  When I'm stressed, I can go overboard with it (usually by doing too much of something - partying, drinking, etc), which I don't like.  But that's more on me. ...|||This.  This so much.  I really just like to come here and read what others are talking about.  Generally, I frequent this forum and the INTP forum; I find the topics/subject matter on those most...|||December 9th - INFJ.|||You're right that it's complicated.  I'm fairly positive he hasn't cleared up his sexuality situation yet, which I'm sure is additive to the complications.  Since I can empathize (even relate first...|||Thanks for your response.    Nothing has really changed, which is why I should probably just follow my gut.  So maybe you helped me answer my own question!  As for your other question, it didn't...|||I think I'd benefit from some advice - I'll preface this with saying, the most intense and long-lasting feelings I've ever had is for an INTP.    The INTP and I actually became friends quite in a...|||I think as a type, you're really undeniable in some ways - I find the ones I know to be incredibly intelligent, passionate about the things that call their focus, and great listeners.  My...|||I want someone who wants me to need them, not needs me to have them.  Someone who can take me on adventures - mental, physical, and spiritual.  I want someone who is fiercely intelligent and...|||I agree with your views on this situation.  To me, as I read this thread, I kept thinking, she's not that into it - she should let him down easily, but I'm honestly not sure why I feel this way.  ...|||I don't think I've legitimately tested as an INFJ.  It's probably because I work in finance and what I normally do in a situation does not match my knee jerk reaction to things.  In terms of...|||I tell you that I like you.  Which - perhaps obviously - does not happen often.|||This makes perfect sense to me - it's actually amazing to me that I am not alone in my line of thinking.  Thanks so much.|||Honestly, in a word - frustrating.  But it's also kind of amazing.  It's basically anything but straightforward.  I find myself having to rely almost completely on my gut instinct...which says -...|||I agree with this.  I am an INFJ male and it took me a very long time to figure that out.  My high school experience was me constantly trying to fit in and feeling at odds with who I am as a result...|||I think that describes me to a T.  I am exceedingly analytical and my mind is always playing out scenarios.  But then, there are times where I just feel naked to my emotions, because they're there,...|||While I've thumbed through many of the threads about INTPs and relationships, I was hoping you could help me understand my situation on a more specific basis, if you don't mind.  Long story short -...|||I haven't minded being single in the past.  I've been in and out of relationships...sometimes going a while without.  Never quite found the right one, but I really also wasn't looking for someone...|||I don't think I believe in love at first sight, but I can tell when I meet someone if they're going to be significant in some way to me.  It's never failed me yet.|||Relating to the OP, your post is actually really offensive (which I'm sure is ironic to you, but hear me out). This reads like you don't get black people at all.  Basically it reads, I'm fat and...|||Does he like me?  Does he like me?  That kiss was amazing.|||Most if not all babies I've encountered love me.  Usually it happens on the subway.  They either stare, or smile, or gravitate toward me in some way.  Most parents (even strangers) are okay with it...|||I don't know if I've ever felt lost, but I did find myself going through a gradual shift where I cared less about what people thought and about being the prodigal child, and I felt more attuned to...|||1. What's your thoughts of INTJ as friend? I think we'd be great friends.  I have a thick skin and I actually thought I was an INTJ for a while.  I can appreciate what they bring to things.  I don't...|||Get out of my head!!!! :)|||Oh my gosh.  That's exactly what I transitioned to fairly recently - self actualization!  I'm in my later 20s.  Haha!  This post speaks to me.|||It depends.  When it comes to people - if I am attracted / care, I am very observant.  If not, not really.  When it comes to directions / spatial considerations, very poor.  In fact, I think I'm a...|||Immature people using Fe. Fi more generally.|||My best female friend is an INFJ.  She's more introverted, intuitive, feeling, and we're probably equal judgers. My best male friend is an IxFP.  I think he's an S, but he has some N qualities too,...|||I made a mental note to go through this thread, so I will at some point.  The topic kind of spoke to me (it was something I'd been thinking about), so I just wanted to add my two cents without...|||I think the Fe part is why I sometimes question if I am INFJ vs. INTJ.  I'm still trying to find out if I have really great Fe or really poor Fe.  I think I'm good at using Fe because I can realize...|||I did very well scholastically.  But for me, it's easily explained - I'm intelligent, but I don't think of myself of a genius or anything.  I may be smarter than I think I am, but I can pick up...|||I'm not particularly anxious.  At least, not when there's isn't a reason to be.  I fear very little.  I think anxiety is nature/nurture (probably more nature than nurture), but I wouldn't ascribe it...|||1. How important is receiving affirmation in your romantic relationships?  It's important.  I want to know what I'm doing right and what I can improve upon, if anything.  I'm used to being in the...|||I suspect this is more of an enneagram issue than an INFJ one.  The reason I say this is because I'm pretty hard as nails on the surface and no one ever really accuses me of being too sensitive.  I...|||It will be hard for me to ever date an ENFJ again.  I'm not saying it won't happen, but I know a few who have typed as such and things always go sour.  And it's always because of intentional or...|||When I was younger, I partook in the family presents stuff.    Nowadays, Christmas is nice because while most people are with their families/other people, I can get a day to myself.  It sounds...|||I got a 94...surprised it was that high...|||Said by my bosses: You are too hard on yourself. Said by my best friend: You are the most determined person I've ever met. Said by co-workers: You always look so serious. Said by most...|||Yes!  I always identified with Kenshin as a kid...and I wasn't actually huge on anime, but I bought that on DVD because I loved it so much. I think Kenshin is a total INFJ, but actually it was on my...|||I actually prefer it if someone else is the direct leader, but the leader comes to me for advice/consultation before making decisions.  It's basically behind-the-scenes influence.  But actually, I'm...|||I've had people (male and female) profess their love for me, but I've always known that they love who they think I am, which turns me off.  It's very complicated because just as the person is most...|||Definitely MUCH more of a flirt.  Guys, girls...it doesn't matter.  I can be pretty closed off when sober, but when I'm drunk that all goes away.  Oh...and much less picky.  I can be selective with...|||Like the description on personalitycafe, I'm able to get over a relationship pretty easily if I'm sure it's over.  There's one who I fell in love with that I am not over.  We broke it off over a...|||I am a natural leader in that I am not a follower (or beta male, if you will), and once I set my mind to something, I will get it done.  If the venture requires others to contribute, then I can...|||I hope to be well on my way to happiness and also maximizing on some personal milestones:  (1) Being a home (condo) owner  (2) Going to either Asia or Africa (or both)  (3) Being successful at...|||I'm traditionally masculine.
