'Absolutely!
Once I find out if an acquaintance liked or disliked the movie Amelie with an INFJ/P protagonist, then I have a better idea of how we will mesh.
I'm not an entj, but I can definitely relate to your situation. Not being willing to acknowledge my feelings or concerns is an issue. The concept of boundaries comes to mind. Have you talked...
Actually, yes, I have an undergraduate liberal arts degree and am seriously looking into starting another undergraduate degree. I didn't know that there were grants available for students over the...
I ended up in marketing and communications as well. So far, the 'behind the scenes' work has been the best fit for my personality. In the past, I didn't do well with jobs that wanted me to be more...
Music does have a role in my life. For every place that I've lived during my twenties, I naturally developed these soundtracks with music from coffee shops I visited, local radio stations, friend's...
Snail, you are intriguing (in a good way).
When I am in the real world, physical objects sometimes trigger memories. For example, I will be waiting in line at the grocery store when a sign reminds me of the same sign I saw at a grocery store...
For a short story I'd recommend 'The Open Boat' by Stephen Crane. It explores some topics such as the individual vs. nature. As a mainly non-fiction reader, I enjoyed this short story.
The next book I want to read is The Edible Woman by Margaret Atwood.
This was appreciated, especially after I spent a week with my sister who aggressively expressed her negative views of idealists and NFs.
...or some high intp clarity.:crazy:
There are different styles of bars. Snail's mellow bar sounds like a place I'd feel more comfortable. Once I was invited to a bar where the only good thing there was the beer I was drinking....
I wish that I knew more INFPs outside if the internet. INFP females: I knew an INFP female in college. She was sweet, interesting, and had good taste in films/books. INFP males: Where are...
I think it is. The question might only serve as a distraction. :crazy: Did you see what the ENTP did to our ladder? Hmm...
What kind of internship did you do?
Can you explain? ... Hello!
'Enemy' can sound extreme. 'Enemy' could translate to 'type that has trouble understanding the infp.'
I agree, especially the estj!
The estj and infj? An estj and an infj in an honest conversation requires a lot of mental energy in order to understand one another. That's my experience from my estj/infj conversation this week.
Hello! Another INFJ!
I should have expected this answer. No, not all.
Do all estj guys like quiet girls? I'm asking because I noticed that an estj friend of mine tends to choose more introverted friends.
I am an INFJ with an ESTP sister. :frustrating:
I can relate to the family acting like something is wrong. No, I should say the *majority* of family. Whenever I am 'home' I start feeling more insecure and unsettled.
My ISTP friend is very technical/computer oriented. And our minds work very differently as well. Sometimes he will add work codes into normal conversation and I don't have a clue what those...
You don't even want to know how the kangaroo INFJ corrupts the INFP personality! :laughing:
What about an internship? Volunteering isn't a bad idea. You could volunteer and work at the same time if you want. Two summers ago I worked a dull job 20-40 hours a week and volunteered at a...
I don't know you but I thought that your comments were very thoughtful. And you didn't seem to mind if people didn't agree with your views.
This is true. If I get the chance to travel again I would be more careful. Depending where you go, foreigners can be easy targets.
Hello! I like ENFPs. I thought about going to Japan but... do not want to teach English.
Sweet options! I'm trying to get more experience with graphic design and copy writing.
A name with 'lion' and 'heart' (aka lionheart) together equals danger. :laughing:
This thread ended as a purging of my frustrations with a couple of unhealthy ESFPs. Although I'm still biased with the personalities I prefer, I'm sure there are healthier ESFPs somewhere. ...
Before I left the continent of North America, I thought that culture shock was just a cliche. No, it's not just a cliche! It was very real for me. I realized that being in another country was...
I once lived with an ESFJ female. Most of the time, she was teaching at work and planning a garden at home.
I believe I've seen other NFs reading in bookstores and coffee shops, but just admired them from a distance. Approaching people in places like bookstores and coffee shops can be awkward. Instead, I...
I'm assuming that craving recognition is partly an Extraverted Sensation tendency to prefer external feedback from people. It's exhausting for me! I should put an alarm on my cell phone reminding me...
I have just about given up trying to communicate with these ESFPs. Attempting to converse calmly has just led to in your face overreactions. Struggling to figure them out, I have sadly concluded that...
Once he decides to say something it is usually intelligent and witty.
Yes. As an INFj to an ISTP, responses and feedback in conversation are welcome! Even if the responses are subtle, friends will know you're at least listening. I could say a few sentences or state...
That's good advice. I need to honestly state my feelings to settle the situation. Knowing I tried my best will alleviate some of my frustration. If they are not willing to listen then this would be...
My ISTP guy friend is very quiet and calm. I like this introversion, though, because he isn't too aggressive and pushy. We have a comfortable friendship where we can just spend the day together. He's...
I started reading Being Vegetarian for Dummies at a bookstore. I know that it has a section on nutritional information.
Tofu and potatoes? :laughing: There's a meal you could try!
:laughing: I laugh at something that I thought of too. ES types will get frustrated and tell me to stop it. I can't help it. My mind wanders sometimes.
By default I am surrounded by extroverted sensors, and *most of the time* they have a habit of pointing out my introverted intuition as a weakness. For example, I just had a conversation with an ESFP...
Listen to Mcgooglian. Make sure that you get all the nutrients you need. Every day I take a vitamin B supplement. For protein I mainly eat lentils and soy products. I started eating oatmeal because...
I have trouble with isolation. Actually, as an NF I am naturally affiliative and usually seek friendships, but give up easily when my efforts aren't reciprocated. Feeling judged is probably...
I am an INFJ having a difficult time trying to communicate with the ESFPs in my life. I am perplexed. What are your experiences relating to an ESFP? What happens when you present a problem...'
