Please, please don't feel badly at all for advising me to tell him my feelings. It was sound advice regardless of the outcome. I want to live my life as an authentic person. I've made a conscious...
Wow that was a effing novel. Sorry.
Hi there, So I apologize about reviving a zombie thread, but I have new information and questions that I wanted to ask about this specific situation, and it seemed like it would be better to attach...
Yes, yes, updates! My apologies! And heartfelt thanks to everyone who has responded to my thread thus far- you guys have been such a great help to me, truly. Thank you! I decided to text and tell...
Actually, I have texted him first a couple of times. After the two week stretch where he was travelling I was the first to touch base. Like I said, he reciprocated very quickly and we texted back and...
Does it make a difference that we didn't text for over two weeks before, and then I had to initiate in order for him to start texting me back? And what should I do if he doesn't text me for a bit?...
ENFPs, I ask for an audience with you. I have a situation involving one of your kin that I desperately need advice about. There's a guy (I'm a girl) who I have known of for a long time... going on...
Yeah, I can say that this is true for me. I've always had a huge thing for athletes, and I kind of idolize them and just think that they're so grand in my mind. Since Se is my inferior function I...
I'm going to throw ENTJ into the ring for my vote, because that's the type of the surgeon that I work for, and he really is excellent at what he does. I think that his extraverted thinking really...
AN INFJ here who would just love to be able to do what Kaidan in the Irredeemable comic books can do. She has the ability to summon the ghosts of Japanese legends by reciting their stories out loud,...
Yeah, I agree, you have a really great way of putting things that makes me understand a new dimension of type distinction. The article that you directed me to in another thread gave me a bunch of...
Thank you for that article- it was great and the first one that I've seen that described J and P preferences in a different way than the organized vs disorganized, directive vs informing. In the 'How...
This is interesting. So then if a person is informing in the communication then that means that their dominant process is judging? So then would you say that an INFJ is a person who wants things done...
OK, so I'm starting this thread so that I can hear y'alls thoughts on using the directing vs informing style of communication as far as determining someone's J vs P preference. For the uninitiated,...
Hi there, INFJ with a Slytherin sort. Although I was on the cusp of being sorted into Gryffindor.
Spy: ISTJ Villain: INTJ Rock Star: ESFP Knight: ISFJ Princess: ESFJ Bodyguard: ISTJ Heir to a Large Company: IxxP Martyr: INFP Soldier: ISTJ Overprotective Parent: ENFJ
I like men. They're very non-dramatic or demanding, and in friends that's what I look for. Girls engage (a lot of times) in petty behavior like gossip and competitiveness, and I've got enough...
Thank you so much, Ruth2Ten. :) You are so, so kind. I feel really terrible for saying all those things, but I also feel so much better for having vented to someone(s)! It made me feel so much...
Mom: ExFJ (I can't decide betwen S and N) Dad: ENTJ to the max And then there are my seven younger siblings. I'm the oldest and they are (in ascending order by age): Brother: INFP Brother: ESTJ...
Today I feel horrible. I felt OK until I came home. I had this new pair of earrings that I had ordered and I love- they look like crescent moons, which are my favorite. I was so, so happy, and then I...
I'm an INFJ and I like it. Not the typical kind of astrology though- I much prefer Chinese and Celtic astrology, although I love finding connections between all of them.
OMG, you guys are my family soulmates. :shocked: Seriously. I've got an emotionally unavailable ENTJ dad, a too emotionally available/manipulative ExFJ mother, an INFP younger brother... it's...
I agree that there is a detacheded-ness (I know, it's hardly a word) about an INFJ. My mom tells me that even as a little kid, I always seemed really calm and unemotional, and I actually think that...
I'm an INFJ. I love American Beauty Almost Famous A Beautiful Mind Proof Lost in Translation Wall-E Princess Mononoke Lord of the Rings
All these statements are true for me as well. But I'm love avoidant, so I frustrate myself by denying the very thing that I want more than anything. Now what kind of sense does that make?
This is the bane of my roommate experience. Almost as soon as meeting me, they start spilling their unedited life story to me. :shocked: That said, I thought that this was not something that was...
My closet is in dire need of a purging. Things can totally get 'cluttered' if I let them because I tend to attach a sentimental value to everything that I come into contact with and then I don't get...
I'm pretty happy that you brought this topic up, actually, because I have been thinking a lot about P vs J and how I was quite thrown off at first by the descriptions of what a P type should be vs a...
I'm older *shrugs*. Twenty-five. And I only learned about MBTI six months ago or so. I'm one of those people that always thinks that people are closer in age to me than they are further, so I never...
Thank you so much for your detailed reply, Razare. It would be a lie to say that I'm not still processing what you've said, but I really appreciate the time and effort that you took to answer me. It...
Oh man, this sounds like me. If I had a nickel for every time my mom has said, 'Wow, that didn't start happening to me until I was in my late forties,' I'd have at least enough nickels to buy myself...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pGH9OlTVoQA This scene was so, so touching. The way that it's Christmas Eve (I love that time of year). Especially Emma Watson- the way that she goes in to touch him...
1. I have never told anyone out of my immediate family circle that I love them 2. I haven't steadily dated a person in seven and a half years 3. I have 1,900 pins on my Pinterest account 4. I...
In my personal opinion, I don't think that Fe dom or aux are really all that rare. I think that what is rare is someone who is able to use their Fe in a positive way. My mother is either dom or aux...
I know now that I want to be around people, that I want to have relationships in my life. So I've started posting on these forums. So I've started making plans. So I've started hoping.
I'm feeling Eleven and ibage, totally. I know what I've got to do, I'm just so damn afraid to do it. I tell myself that it's no big deal, that millions of people have done it already, that you don't...
A degree in something that I love The right to live my life on my own terms.... dangit!
Hey, you know what? If you can forgive me for killing you by repeatedly having Nagini bite you in the jugular, I can easily forgive you for betraying me! :bored:
How social is your work environment? It's pretty social. I work with a bunch of people that knew me growing up, so it's pretty much not an option to just not care and zip in and out of work....
Yeah, I was going to say janitor as well. I clean a medical office with one other girl a couple times a week. It's easy and there's a ready excuse for plugging into your iPod and out of conversation.
Each morning we are born again. What we do today is what matters most. -Buddha It's not what you look at that matters. It's what you see -Henry David Thoreau Change is the essence of life; be...
For me personally, I found it hard to figure out even my own type at first because I had heard that a lot of INFJs are really 'warm', which doesn't really describe me. Or I should say that it does,...
The world will be ours, my dear Bellatrix! ;) And when we have conquered everything, I will make Hogwarts into a school that teaches the Dark Arts, and force everyone into Slytherin house... so that...
Yes, this I can totally deal with. Gays who just are don't bother me at all. It's not about the orientation, it's just the aggressiveness that bothers me, when they get really mean or unkind towards...
This. I'm an INFJ and I haven't been married myself, and I haven't ever met anyone that I have wanted to be married to (my mom was incredulous when I told her this the other day, but it's the truth)....
Hi, not an INFP. But close. ;) I was sorted into Slytherin, which really threw me for a loop. I was a little upset, even. I created a second account and retested myself, and came out as Gryffindor....
I think that the gays are too loud and in your face. I understand that they're pushing an issue that they feel is important, but their utter intolerance and their childish reactions to anyone who...
I pretty consistently tested as an INTP when I first learned about MBTI and started shopping around through the various online quizzes. However. when I read about INTP (although I was very flattered...

Ahh, manga. I am surrounded by a lot of people who really love anime, and occasionally they try to get me into this series or that series, but it just seems to be hard for me to get together the...
