'If I'm interpreting correctly, you're describing one of my least-favorite things about ENFPs which is their apparent inability to stay on topic. They take one subject and branch out from it, whereas...
Perhaps the fact that we're Ni'ing all the time, but only seldom Se'ing. We capture our physical surroundings through our senses only for the purpose of analyzing them, not for the purpose of...
I think it is actually typical of INFJs to talk things out when they're going wrong, but it's gotta be with someone that we trust. If you've only been talking to this girl for a month or two, it's...
Passion and intellect. Also the booty.
I'm a little disappointed as it seems I wasn't able to get my point across very well. This isn't about being exclusive, or being jealous. It's merely about wanting to take control of my situation and...
Sweetish - I really like what you're saying about blind faith. I definitely agree that it's better to be transparent than foolishly hopeful in these kinds of situations. It's good to expect the best...
Sedem - that's kind of the approach I was contemplating. Do what I would under other any other circumstance but with the added component of extra awareness. I'm glad someone agrees :) darketNiTe I...

Long story short: I met a girl about two months ago that I really like. She also seems very interested in me. We've gone on a date and have a second one set up for next week. The thing is that...
I'm about to graduate as a Software Engineer, and may be attending grad school for a master's in the Fall. I am very happy with what I do.
One of my closest friends is an ENTP 8w7 and one of the more unsettling things I find about him is precisely how mindlessly determined he seems in his opinions: most of the time it's his way or no...
Oh boy, do I have something to say about this, but given that it's midnight and I have a long day tomorrow, I will try to give you a summary of my thoughts. Yes, I had a good friend who was an...
It all depends on what you mean by emotional. In this forum I have seen posts both about not showing emotions and about needing to talk things out before one can cope with them. So what's the deal...
As an outside consultant, I can confirm this. In fact, it's kind of a pet peeve of mine when I seek advice and the person just tells me about a situation they went through and then they don't expound...
If this was possible and guaranteed, yes. She's inherently a great girl. Her appreciation of our relationship doesn't really detract from her virtues, but I just wish she had also found me a...
It's been seven months since my breakup and I still can't get over it. Everything in our friendship previous to dating seemed so right, so appropriate, so good and so pure. Nothing could go wrong....

Seems like we're on a roll here! I'm a senior in Software Engineering looking to work in some kind of web/application development after graduation.

I don't know that it's an INFJ thing, but I have definitely been in a similar position in the past. What helped me was to do less. Yes, do less. Even if it doesn't seem like you're at the top of the...
Notice the conditional, though. You're saying that you say that when someone is blaming something on you that you don't feel responsible for. I'm sure there are times when you know that what you did...
guilty.
Your feelings are entirely YOUR responsibility, not mine.
It sounds like you have all the characteristics of an INFJ with Introverted Sensing somehow thrown in the mix. When I have taken functions tests, it always comes out saying that I have almost a...
I can't contribute much to the conversation right now, but I wore an ENTJ face throughout all of high school because I was heavily influenced by my ENTJ dad. However, i always knew there was a side...
I'm just gonna toss this out there, but how would you ever know if your intuition isn't being stained by paranoia? That would definitely make gut-feeling-following potentially destructive.... Perhaps...
First of all, welcome! I hope you find a place in this forum as many of us have :happy: I don't know that people come to me for emotional support, but I think they definitely take advantage of...
I'm actually pretty bold and assertive if it need be. I'm not one to keep things to myself to simply avoid conflict. In fact, I think conflict can be necessary to bring out the truth, and I'll often...
What I'm looking for Any other INFJ. Or ENFP, ENFJ, ENTJ. Who I am Male college student in the software field. I enjoy languages, coffee, philosophy, history, and art. I'm fond of new places...
I understand why these functions might be mutually exclusive because I definitely have found myself having to either pay attention to the current situation (Se) or to sort through what the situation...
Huh, that was pretty cool.
I had a pretty rough patch recently, and here's some of the stuff I heard from: ISTJ - Just be firm and say f*** it. INTP - Just control your thoughts. (seriously?) ENTJ - You have to focus on...
Woah! All I'm saying is that self-reliance ignoring outside feedback isn't a good approach when trying to find your true type. If she didn't want the feedback, she wouldn't be here. And your comment...
Sorry, but this argument is as valid as don't let anyone except you tell you you're not a dinosaur but a human. ----------------------- I just finished reading this article which might be...
I feel a little odd here because while I do try to avoid smothering people with my feelings or ideas, I also can't say that I have trouble saying what needs to be said. I don't find it difficult to...
Connecting the dots between familiar and unfamiliar as so = Introverted Intuition (Ni) Comparing everything in the present and living according to the past = Introverted Sensing (Si) ...
I feel like the advocates for being alone here are referring more to others not being present in the house. I like this as well, but I prefer to know that eventually there will be others around for...
This sounds more like a sign of maturity than a type characteristic. I know that generally if I'm angry about something else I'll want to vent about it with my SO, but if they cross me in any way...
I'm gonna toss this out there and it will derail the conversation, but how sure are you that you're an INFJ? An INFJ's primary cognitive function is introverted intuition (Ni) followed by...
I met my INFP best guy friend originally online, but we were attending the same university starting that Fall. There was a fraternity trying to recruit both me and him, and I expressed my disapproval...
Have you talked to anyone about this? I'm in a similar situation where something I did in the past keeps tugging at me in the present, and I've found that getting people's objective perspective helps...
This is precisely what I'm talking about. More empathy, more in-the-moment rather than thinking through every single little thing.... it's pretty great haha.
From an MB standpoint, I think my Se and Fe shoot up, and my Ni goes down. So I stop overanalyzing things and notice details in front of me a lot more. Also I get very affectionate and empathize with...
Why did you hesitate before dating her when you two first hooked up? I've always had this weird protective feeling for her, and I knew that my baggage from the past had potential to hurt her or...
Thanks, Mendi :laughing: This is a thread about treating an ISFJ as fairly as I can. Anyone? :crying:
I'm generally mellow, but when someone pulls the right strings I tend to have explosive reactions. In descending order of intensity, I get angry when: 1. People whom I love are ignoring/neglecting...
Do you think that this is why when we do fall, we seem to fall harder than others?
I used to be very sensitive to this and I've been learning to identify why they're doing it if it's people I care about, and otherwise I've learned to just ignore them right back (sometimes I make...
This sounds somewhat familiar to some stuff I've dealt with. Sometimes there are people whose personality trigger the worst in us, and these people don't necessarily have to be the ones we hate....'
