Diplomats INFJ

Quiet and mystical, yet very inspiring and tireless idealists.

'Shea, I love how even the thought of alpacas and llamas lingers in your mind. Haha, I would've asked the same, too!

So great to hear that you're from Montreal! Had circumstances not creeped up, I would've gone to McGill too. Now I live only two hours away. I visit very often though. It would be so neat if there...

I like to live a simple life. It's been a year and a half since I've stopped using a cell phone, and about six months since I've had a laptop. Nowadays, I just use my iPad to keep in touch with the...

I wouldn't say I intentionally test people, but I do study them in a very deep and subtle way so that I could draw a character analysis of them. What's funny is that I'm highly aware when others...

Never mind meeting someone who can understand me completely, for I don't understand myself completely, either. There's so much of who I am, whatever is buried in my psyche, that I myself must dare to...

Simply being and tapping into the present moment - that's the only time that's ever real. That's the most alive you can ever get. It's alright, many people are busying their lives away, with busy...

I'm really considering cancelling my phone service and some social media connections. If people truly want to find me, they will.

I feel like you're hiding something. No, I'm not hiding anything, at least not intentionally. It's just me, that elusive part of me. Something you can't grasp. Something you'll never understand.

Talked to myself. Pretended I had an imaginary friend, and had my own conversations out loud.

I always read whatever I want, regardless of what others think. What I mean is, because I don't have anyone to discuss these weird ideas with, I just feel even lonelier in my head. Haha, it's an...

I wonder the exact same thing. Sometimes, when I go to the science or philosophy section of a bookstore with the intention of picking up a book, I end up putting it down because I'm well aware that...

Before, the thought of babies was just repulsive; and even then, I was still very nurturing whenever I encountered one. When I was in high school though, I became an aunt. According to my family, I'm...

Leaving my mind and entering my heart, and the realm of emotions.

Yes, and often. Sometimes I find that I have so much to say that I don't know where to begin; and even after writing out my response, I tend to feel that it doesn't do my mind any justice. So I take...

Keep talking, I like it. I ramble about theories all day too, and look for people who don't mind it.

I need new clothes because I can't really fit into my old ones anymore...These past months I'd managed to gain over 10 lbs from stress and heartbreak. Keep in mind that I'm very short too. Oh well,...

I know, I realized that a while ago too! Updates are often from INFJ forums; I'd have to search way back for an updated ENFJ one. They're probably out busy collecting little minions.

Lol, I had to laugh here. I know, I catch your drift. Ps. Apologies to Lad for derailing the thread. :P

@TigerFella I've never felt that the world owes me, because the world doesn't owe me anything. Do you mean that you wish people could appreciate you more, as much as you appreciate them? If so,...

I prefer the truth, no matter how much it hurts. Similarly, I'd prefer to tell someone the truth too, though I'd soften my approach so as not to hurt them too much. Because if you love someone, truly...

Affirmations would be nice, but I don't really need them. Hearing from someone that they like/love me once (or twice) in a blue moon is fine, because I find that actions mean more than words....

Wow. I was just thinking about this too. Indeed, I do tend to think that people don't remember me all that much, because I assume that for the most part, I care more about people than they do about...

I offered my thoughts in class today and my prof responded that I'm one of the cynics. I feel as if everyone sees me as a cynic, or at least some kind of tainted idealist. If you don't necessarily...

I like you guys. A lot. With the NTs I know, I really appreciate the intellectual discussions and weird sense of humour we share. I don't know what it is, but I often feel as if I can relate to you...

I feel that as time goes by, I no longer believe in the notion of best friends. There are those with whom you can form deep solid connections, and those who just float on by.

Sick - fever, cold, sore throat. You name it. Funnily, I woke up this morning with socks on which means that someone had secretly put them on me last night! They also went out in the freezing cold...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MvgN5gCuLac Because George Carlin knows what's up.

I HAVE THE SAME BARNEY. Where is it? Now I'm sad.

I HAVE THE SAME BARNEY. Where is it? Now I'm sad.

I can see where you're coming from. I feel that I know myself deeply, but do I know myself completely? Probably not. That thing that's incommunicable to others is an identity, yes, but more than...

I feel that I'm a 4w5 too. I'm reserved and private, but sometimes I do over-share information about myself and end up talking a lot. I think it's because I seek authentic relationships and a sense...

You know what's messed up? Playing it safe every day. Doing x today to achieve y tomorrow. Same bullshit, different day. What if tomorrow doesn't come? What the hell are we waiting for? For the world...

Just wanted to make a note: Reading everyone's comments here made me feel at home and very safe, like I belonged somewhere in this world and that there are kind, loving people who truly understand....

Reading this is like reading about me too. Being the black sheep of the family or the so-called problem child; having my parents ripping me to shreds my entire life, albeit unintentionally; dad with...

When I read your post, it reminded me a lot of myself as a kid. Especially the ant thing. Can we be friends?

I was surprised when my closest friend of almost 7 years just told me that she thinks that she doesn't really know much about me. Yet here I am thinking that I'd already granted her access to my...

I've never lived alone, but I'd love to! In fact, I could imagine myself living on my own forever, but with friends and loved ones visiting here and there. Or, I could live with a future partner, but...

Wherever it is, it's not here. Whatever it is, it's not this. It's true, I long for something that's far off. I feel nostalgic for a place I've never known, yet it's so vivid in my mind. I long for...

I like Alan Watts. No matter what, try to keep his words of wisdom in mind: x93Forget the money. Because if you say that getting the money is the most important thing, you will spend your life...

Come to think of it, I've had many blogs before, with seemingly different personalities behind them. For example, I've had a blog dedicated purely to intellectual topics in science, philosophy,...

My spine would tingle in discomfort if I called someone fake. Not only do we not know others to the extent that they know themselves, but more importantly, I wonder how many of us truly know...

Isn't it weird? I feel as if the only way for me to start fresh in life, is to completely abandon my family and friends, or the person I am, to become the person I could be. Sometimes, when I look at...

First: In my head, I'll be like, Aw shit, da fuq? But I wouldn't get angry or anything. What's done is done. I wouldn't make a big situation out of nothing, it's not worth it. Instead, I'd be...

I'm a big fan of Haruki Murakami. ;) When I was in high school, I loved reading fiction, especially mystery. I probably have around twenty of James Patterson's books sitting on my bookshelf! Nowadays...

Same. I'm as plain as plain gets. I don't wear makeup; I only straighten my hair. As for clothes, very simple - jeans, t-shirts, cardigans, and long-sleeved shirts. I also like neutral colours. All...

I think it depends on the conflict. If it's impersonal stuff that has to do with intellectual debates and such, I love a good challenge. Even then, the environment is harmonious, as we agree to...

When I was a teen in high school, I was very reserved and kept to myself and my small, close-knit group of friends. I didn't care to fit in or date around; I was very much focused on academics and...

You pretty much summed me up in a nutshell.

When I'm extremely stressed, I become different than my usual self. It's as if I've lost my footing. I'll start to avoid my problems and responsibilities, and resort to focusing on my immediate...'
