'I only really know of two INFJs and I dated both of them, though both were the longest relationships I've had. There were differences between the two to make them different enough, but some...
Sorry, you've thoroughly mistaken me for someone who gives a shit. I just find it ripe that while you post that you are 'done with' ENFPs, here you are browsing and posting where? Obviously, you...
Eh, you guys suck. :laughing: But seriously, I think people are using MBTI to serve an agenda and reinforce their own negative feelings based on interactions with specific individuals by applying...
Cool. Well take your little typist generalizations and roll the fuck on out then, please. Or are you just hanging around the ENFP forum to chime in to let us all know what bastards we are? Either...
I actually think this might be a common enough trait amongst ENFPs. I definitely have times where I just need a battery recharge and I'm not really into having a conversation just to have a...
It applies to males. I sort of see what Dingpin was saying and it relates to what I said. You can't expect someone to just jump into a relationship and become your best friend the second they meet...
I think most of the emphasis here seems to be of the variety that people underestimate you because you lack focus in terms of life plans. I'm assuming most of the people with this issue are in high...
What I see here are speculations by non-ENFx types on ENFx types. First off, ENFJ and ENFP are two very different types if you look at the underlying functions. It's often repeated that ENFPs are...
No. Usually it's more like the other person has moved on to the point that you're not even visible in their rearview mirror and you're asking yourself, Where did they go?
How old are you again? I wouldn't be so quick to paint with a broad brush.
Pot, kettle, black.
...and this ENFP is going to go make some popcorn now.
Yup. I think that introversion and extroversion with NF types confuses people. I think I explained before that NFs, by their nature, have the ability to understand people and we focus a lot on...
Actually, yes I would relate to this behavior. I think people approach the whole aspect of 'typing' people by using a lot of assumed generalizations about that type. In this case, the assumption...
Is that sarcasm in order to make him feel better? Really, as an INFP, I'd use my superpowers to move mountains for people I care about especially those people who I've built up long term...
I wouldn't say it's so much gender roles as accepting of the idea of roles. More linear thinkers would tend to want to categorize and organize people into broad generalizations. My mind tends to...
You're supposed to bust through a wall and say, OH YEAH!
I kind of drift in and out of the forums here depending on what's going on in my life. It's kind of funny to go back through this thread having just met someone when I least expected to who just so...
Check the library lately? There's an INFP in the post.
I'm feeling the need for a group hug.
*tosses you the prize from the bottom of the cracker jack box he's been eating out of* Therein lies the problem, I'm just reacting the common thread that other INFJs have articulated in response...
Um, I love the whole 'INFP is passive' archetype. I tend to be pretty laid back and understanding and extend that to people who do the same in kind. Furthermore, I generally want to give people the...
Also, since the discussion came up, I'm a 4w5 in relation to my Enneagram type. There was a very funny post someone made that further sub-divided INFPs into various types and I believe mine was the...
I wasn't being contentious as I fully noted that I meant not to offend. I was being blunt in pointing out and correcting the contention that an ENFP (or any xNFP) would 'run' from the 'darkness' of...
Bingo! We have a winner! The fact is that a lot of other people have skeletons in the closet and 'dark sides' to their personalities. Sometimes life hands you a bunch of baggage to sort out and...
Sorry, I have had a few to drink. One time, when I was an infant, my parents took a picture of me bare ass naked. These pictures exist buried in a photo album. Perhaps my parents should be charged...
I'm a P and I'm not particularly flighty, especially not with close friends or people I'm dating. I think at the very worst I used to have my own internal clock, but I've gotten much better in that...
I've gotten to the point where if someone is manipulative, I simply cut them out of my life. If I'm forced to be in the same room as them, I can easily pretend they don't exist. Furthermore, if...
I'm going to answer this for you all, so you don't have to debate it further: me. :cool:
Is that whole I'm complex thing supposed to scare people? I'm not saying that to be patronizing, it's just that maybe there are people who are drawn to complexity and, given the chance, might...
Then I worship at the alter of Satan. HAIL SATAN!
I've read through the socionics relationships and am slightly baffled at how the whole duality relationship pans out in reality. It seems to follow the logic of 'opposites' completing or...

I was going to echo sentiments and I honestly feel like if you are driven to get a tattoo and someone would be 'turned off' by you having a tattoo, should you really be all that concerned with their...
I'm actually pretty selective in my desires to hug people.
INFPs just spell better and practice better grammar. Key example is my writing and that of the post by the ENFP I've quoted.
How old are you? I'm going to say this as someone who never dated in high school and had friends who were likely people that also never dated during that period, but have had extensive relationships...
Right, my point is that sometimes there is an intangible 'something' that has to be there in order for us to have a connection that makes a relationship with a person seem like the right one....
I'm going to formulate a brief response about relationships and how they evolve. Obviously, there's something to be said for a spark and sometimes you meet someone and feel an instant intense...
Alright, just making sure here. You did use a smiley face to punctuate the statement, but figured I could perhaps provide some INFP perspective if there was an apparent misunderstanding. I was...
Runescribe: You seem to have an issue with us INFPs? What's up with that?
Here's the solution: 1) Find INFP. 2) Lay out bait for INFP and lure them into your trap. 3) ??? 4) Profit. Unfortunately, people can't change their histories and I'd argue that there are...
Speak for yourself, breeder!
Woah dude! You need to step off and not project your INFJ romantic, lovey dovey bullshit onto us INFPs. I will fucking cut you! :crazy: In all seriousness, reading through this thread, and...
I think someone got confused when we told them that we were New Romantics and assumed we were into exchanging boxes of chocolate, candlelit dinners, long walks along the beach while holding hands,...
This thread is pretty amazing and mirrors a lot of thoughts I had about my issues with relating to people or people having problems understanding me as a person. I've explained to people that I'm...
I think there's a perception that INFPs will get along with types that people will classically refer to as the strong/dominant types. In all fair honesty, I think people tend to want to exaggerate...
Exactly! There is no concrete example given, only a blanket generalization. The last time I got into a debate with an ENTJ, he had written something about 'FP' types being flakes. I pointed out...
I don't know how many ENTJs that I've put in their place when it came to actual rational arguments. My problem with ENTJs is that they often allow their own personal ego get in the way of the...
I have this sort of obsession with the art and culture of my hometown and I'm going to go out on a limb and defend it: 1) Los Angeles is the most multi-cultural city in the US, which means there's...'
