Diplomats INFJ

Quiet and mystical, yet very inspiring and tireless idealists.

'I've been going through some stuff lately, mainly working on some grief-trauma issues that have been sitting on a shelf for far too long. I made a very honest open post yesterday about everything...

Having the house to myself!

When someone ... asks me to make a decision/give advice (claiming to have no preference) and then shoots down all my suggestions asks me a question and then doesn't listen to my answer invites me...

I get this sometimes. I think it's just because I'm more reserved around people I don't know and hold some (maybe more old-fashioned) manners. For example, I keep it PG in professional or family...

nope

Chicken-wing

Unexpected large groups really stress me out. Example: Last week a friend of mine organized a birthday get-together for a close mutual friend. I knew that, including myself, there would be five...

I'm struggling intensely to have hope and keep afloat right now. It's hard to explain what's responsible for this violent and abrupt shift. It's just life stuff, I know. It's mostly about...

I do this too. I blame empathy (haha). Maybe because I don't usually extend invitations and I'm really not good at handling the rejection when I do, I don't want to make anyone feel that way. I...

I don't like to toot my own horn. I'm not loud and boisterous (for the most part). I've always highly valued humility and modest (to some extent). I was taught not to brag and show off. I still catch...

I can relate to that curiosity. I'm also an Interpol fan. Good taste :] Have you heard Sun Kil Moon/this song? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=begLNqsNusk It inspired me to research...

I should be looking for a new job or at least trying to resend the one application I finished, that wouldn't submit due to some issues the company's website was having. But I am listening to old...

Today I was imagining that, if I wrote an autobiography, a good title would be Something Smells Weird and It Might Be Me

I love art but I hate the art world. I'm becoming incredibly disillusioned. The scarcity of authenticity and originality is overwhelmingly scary.

ENFJ's at their best are the nicest, warmest, most caring, selfless, and helpful people in the world. ENFJ's at their worst appear to be the nicest, warmest, most caring, selfless, and helpful...

I don't think I've often been picked on by NT's (expect ENTP's who do it in a playful way because they are amused by my reaction ;p). I've felt like I was being picked on before by NT's and later...

I got the same. :]

I think maybe the problem could be you aren't expressing enough positive judgements to balance your criticism out? The INTP's I'm close to usually show their admiration and appreciation with actions...

Hmm. That's a tricky question. INTJ's can be really hard to read. From my experience, they also tend to be pretty straightforward. So if I have doubts, I feel comfortable asking INTJ's for...

smoking with cigarettes. forgetting about how my image might actually affect interactions and relationships (oops)

I've had mostly hosting and retail jobs. I now think that customer service is just not for me. It hasn't always been so bad though. There were a lot of different variables contributing to how much I...

ENTP ..What the...?

I think I tend to be very aware of fashion (Maybe that's Se). But I don't usually care, comply, or put any effort into making myself fashionable. I think it would be easy for me to be fashionable,...

I'm getting really frustrated even trying to think of what career I may want. IDK?! ONE THAT DOESN'T EXIST!? And I feel like a bad INFJ, but I really do not wish to be a counselor, therapist,...

imo, INTJ's. No contest. NTP's are too silly and unfocused to be intimidating. ENTJ's can be obnoxious, but not intimidating.

INTP feels r not so complicate. INTPs just aren't most adept at expressing their feels. So others are left with no good way to gauge the INTPs feels. The INTP may also think their own emotions are...

It's rude in some instances. I use my phone a lot for texting and interneting. I think talking on the phone while in public or with friends is rude. With friends, I use my phone sometimes to show...

That ENTP honesty always brings a smile to my face :]

I'm mostly a dick by avoiding people and then lying about it. I'm really good at pretending to be busy or distracted when I don't want to deal with someone. It is usually nothing personal. I work in...

shy, sensitive, sweet, well-behaved, smart, creative though I have to wonder if people didn't secretly think: overly serious (dramatic), OCD, or somewhat autistic

We are protective by nature and value privacy. This may not apply to your situation at all, but I've closed myself off to ENFP's because of the way they reacted to me opening up. One didn't value...

I can see this. I would be a more pensive INFJ. (I remember my mom using that word to describe me a lot growing up) I often feel more introverted and level-headed compared to other INFJ's. I know...

I don't see anything wrong here. If you were seeking relationships too intensely, it sounds healthy to take a break from them. Your age and how long this has been going on are definitely factors...

From my experience, I've found that NTP's are the most appreciative of my quirks. I don't feel like they merely tolerate my little idiosyncrasies; they really take note of them and find...

I just realized how terribly cynical and nihilistic I've been lately. All the while, I've been judging people for not being more kind to me, when they are probably just reacting naturally to my own...

1) I don't think I am a very good host, honestly. I am about never a host, haha. My lack of experience doesn't help. But I have never felt inclined to desire being a host either. I would feel weird...

I think it depends. This may even be true in most cases (though I think that's a stretch). But what does that mean? How should we react to that? I think it's true that the people who need love...

I understand this all too well. :/ I'm sorry to hear you are having this issue. I am currently in the process of ending a relationship with an INTP male. My advice is to really try to find out...

5-9-2 here :] I wonder why this tritype has been dubbed the problem solver and in which ways the order of stacking influences what types of problems we are solving

Sometimes I really want someone to fight with me. Not all the time. But, sometimes, yes. I've had way too many passive aggressive people in my life. If I'm out of line, tell me. Get mad at me....

I've had (and am still having) a similar experience. I do think family history has an influence on these things, as much as I hate admitting it. I didn't have a normal stable family or peer...

This is why I love ENTPs :]

This! Yes. haha. This is something I often consider, which probably just makes me overanalyze even more. :P But the statistics on INFJ relational dissatisfaction do put some real fear in me.

Ello :P I hide sometimes. I guess what I was trying to ask, is that some people are more empathetic than others. And (if you can tell how empathetic people are), do you feel a deeper connection...

Hello! :kitteh: Empathy is a trait commonly mentioned when talking about INFJs. I've always experienced it, but never thought deeply about it in a more practical way, such as how it contributes to...

When I was elementary school age, I stole a piece of gum from a store. I was with my mom and really wanted candy. We didn't have much money then and I felt it was unfair, as I didn't ask for candy...

I am Sx first, but I have similar experiences with people who are Sx second. I have a friend who I believe is Sx first also, and we came to the conclusion that we often look for something in...

I've realized that maybe I assume more/most people are SX-dom. You mean some people are actually REALLY happy 100% with just being comfortable and feeling safe...and that's it. ? I don't even...

How do you go about breaking up with someone who you love but are not IN love with? When you like them very much as a person but feel unsatisfied, maybe due to incompatibility, as a romantic...'
