Diplomats INFJ

Quiet and mystical, yet very inspiring and tireless idealists.

'If we are assholes, it's because we suck at Fe. Most types resist developing their auxiliary function and get stuck in a dominant/tertiary loop. We get intuitions about people's emotions or problems...

Hello everyone, I am sure most of you have heard that INFJs report the highest marital dissatisfaction. I was wondering about why that might be. Like most NFs I am a hopeless romantic and hope to...

What happens to me most of the time is that after observing a person (and not even for that long a time) I can somehow form a system of their patterns, and I find it easy to make inferences their...

It's really difficult to articulate why, but I am VERY good at reading people. I am not necessarily talking specifics here-like knowing when someone's about to do something jacked up-but more about...

You married an STJ?! How did that even happen?! I am repelled by STJs in general. I could not even fathom how an NFJ could even make that relationship get off the ground, let alone have it end in a...

The Dark Tower Series by Stephen King

If he really was interested, he would have said something by now. Maybe he is conflicted about dating a coworker, who knows. I sympathize. Don't poop where you eat. It's a lesson I have learned the...

The best way I could illustrate Fe without getting all theoretical is by giving you a scenario. Let's say there's a group of people at a party and I walk into a room. I can immediately pick up on the...

Yes, I am called odd/eccentric all the time.

My problem with them is that they have this tyrannical side to their personality, and they use it on me. I feel like they want to force me to fit into this mold that is not my personality. For...

Please be reminded that I wrote this while I was pissed off.

Yes, it's so frustrating because you have this programming running in your head saying that you're not good enough. When I do speak up when they treat me like shit, they turn it around on me. I used...

Both my parents are ESTJs; I have had positive relationships with the SFJs in the family. I am really only referring to my parents in my rant.

Read a lot of books on CPTSD. If you feel like a piece of shit for no reason, have depression, and feel you're worthless unless someone else validates you, you probably have it. This is the result...

Hi everyone, It is just me, or does being in an SJ family fuck up an NF? I have SJ parents, and we don't EVER seem to agree on anything. It seems that with them everything is right if it goes...

Hi everyone, I have an update for you: I broke it off. Yes, I managed to get the balls to do it. It happened November of last year. He took it pretty bad, and began to stalk me; he wasn't taking no...

LOL Yes, I do think some people were trying to get a reaction. Thank you for the advice.

Thank you for voicing your opinion respectfully. I will put useful points in your advice into practice. Once again, please read the thread from the beginning before you redact a comment. I reacted...

Since you felt like throwing underhanded insults, I thought I'd respond in kind. Since you felt to be judgmental, you should be ready to receive it back.

If you had bothered to actually read that comment and use your brain to understand the words, you would have noticed I said the ESTPs I have known. Since you are not smart enough to read...

Yes, I do apologize for that comment. Generalizing is stereotypical. I should say, the ESTPs I have met so far are airheads.

I tried to break it off before, and he nearly had a panic attack. He wasn't even lucid enough to drive back to his place. He only calmed down after I retracted from breaking up with him. He shows up...

I am sorry, but the vast majority of ESTPs I have known are not the most intelligent people. Ask them about politics, current events, or what they read, and they'll look at you with a blank look on...

I enjoy his company, and we always have fun. But I also need good conversation from him. I would probably do better with an ENFP or ENTP.

As you know when we INFJs come to a decision, we carry it out. Thankfully, I have not made any wedding arrangements. Right now is not a matter of if but WHEN it will happen. My inquiry was not about...

[/B] Why in the world would I pull a disappearing act?! It's not high school. When I get the balls to do this it won't be text or email. We're engaged, his family has met me. There is no way I...

Yes, I know that self-awareness is not his strong suit. He is 30 and is REALLY eager to start a family. Especially when his brother and other men in his life are married with children. I feel like...

Thank You for your response. I feel guilty for letting this relationship get to the point that it has gotten to. Then again, I did not expect him to pop the question so quickly. I have been going...

Yes, he is the typical ESTP. Works on his body constantly but not his mind. He takes me shooting and doing all of these sensory things, but I wonder when we'll get to do things I like. The more time...

Hello all, I would first like to start by saying that I feel kind of childish writing this. I think being a grown 26-year-old woman it's kind of juvenile to resort to the internet to find answers...

The reason I think Ni-Ti loops occurs, is FEAR. Pure and simple. People run away from what the part of their identities that they don't get and feel threatened by. Inferior Se makes us afraid to...

ESTP boyfriend and I are getting married by the end of the year. LOL

I have learned great things from my mom. Having work ethic, responsibility, and knowing how to take care of home are all values I have learned from her. However, i had to take the initiative of...

I know socionics states that INFJs and ESTPs are supposedly made for each other, but I just don't see it. The ESTPs I have met in my life have been superficial, unstable and way too hedonistic for my...

I'm sorry but I have to disagree on that one, INFJs are more rational than INFPs, the INFPs I have met ignore all logic in an argument. In an INFP's point of view an action going against their own...

It is ESTP or ESTJ for me, though I lean towards ESTP more. ESTPs can be highly disciplined when it comes to making money, they have the work hard play hard mentality. Gordon was arrested once for...

I was drawn here perhaps because I know INTJs in real life and witness them trolling, while I have only seen ENTPs online claim they invented trolling.

Hi everyone, i'm relatively new to the site, and I wanted to Ask the INTJs specifically if they think they should be credited for inventing trolling? Some ENTPs claim they did it first. Which of the...

Things i like about ENTPs: Doesn't keep his REAL thoughts and opinions about things to himself even if it offends people (INFJs are incapable of this). Offers theoretical angles in discussions...

I have recently gotten into decor, i think i would be a good interior designer. I especially love modern styles, both in decor and architecture.

Yes, i love my ESFJ mami. She makes me great food and pampers me. Thanks to her i can take care of myself (cook, clean, sew). She can be smothering though i get infuriated with her sometimes, i think...

Oh hell naw!

No, i'm very good with maps and spatial thinking in general, however, if someone asks me for the actual name of a street i have no clue. Most of my memories for directions come from landmarks.

Intj

Laeona MBTI is valid to the extenct that some personality tendencies are observable in people. However, human beings are complex, the issue becomes when people make career and romantic decisions...

Bingo.This is exactly why one has to be careful not to make too much out of systems like this, which are entirely subjective and cannot be measured with data. I don't want to be defined by the mbti,...

Very well put. Many are fooled into equating a personality with a specific archetype based on a misunderstanding of the functions. Te/Fi is very ethically narrow, where there user follows a specific...

Educate me please.....

It could be reasoned that he is ISTJ in that respect. Ni-Te does not strike me as adherent to bureaucratic procedures for their own sake, in fact, many INTJs i have been in close contact with resent...

Yes, we spend so much time in our head that we forget about the real world. Sometimes i think i should try my hand at writing with all the things i daydream about.'
