YES to everything, but especially that one line. I don't really have any helpful advice on how to handle E types. Just wanted to offer a virtual friendly nod of relatability :)
I'm 5w6 as well, and there are some days where I feel like an INTJ, so I can relate to what you're saying! I haven't met a lot of 5w6 INFJs, so our enneagram type is probably uncommon
Found a great song that R&B fans might like. It's especially great for introverts or people who don't like the party/club scene and would much rather hang out with a group of close friends instead. ...

Alexis Bledel. She's a soft-spoken actress who keeps her private life private. I see a lot of myself in her. I also relate to Rory Gilmore, the fictional character she once played. 357130
Great thread and great questions! I'm definitely going to come back to this and give a detailed answer when I'm not busy. But, to make a long story short, I care about world issues. I have many...
INFJ - Either a writer/editor in the public or private sector. I live in an area that has a lot of job opportunities for writers, so I'm in luck. Unrealistically, my dream job would be to do...
I do yoga twice a week and cardio/weights/dance 3 times a week. I'm not muscular, per se, but I am toned. Congrats on the weight loss and the lifestyle change, btw! It's always hard to stick to...
I used to doorslam alllll the time when I was a teenager due to my low self-esteem and my lack of trustworthy friends. But now, I rarely, if ever, doorslam. I'm at a point in my life where I value...
Visual 100%, especially when it comes to learning new things. I've always been a visual learner, so you can imagine my horror when I had one university professor who never wrote notes on the board or...
Like previous members have already mentioned, I'd say go for it, too. It's worth a shot to ask her and see if she's up for flying out to spend time with you. It could lead to something great, right?...
Lol probably, but I'm looking forward to seeing where this discussion goes. I love broadening my view of controversial topics because it forces me to re-evaluate my way of thinking and it reminds me...
Fox News is so idiotic. That news show is an affront to ethical journalism and the butt of many jokes, and with good reason. The fact that they're still on the air makes me sick to my stomach. I'm...
overanalyzing everything
I found this reddit post titled Anyone else just never ask for help/things/favors? and realized how much I struggle with asking for help. I love helping others, so much so that people always come...

You have a point. It's hard to come to terms with our existence and what purpose it serves. I guess that's why so many people turn to religion: to feel a sense of stability and purpose in life. But...
Don't know if this is an INFJ trait, but I finish people's sentences WAY too much, and I'm really trying to cut back on it, but it's so hard. In my mind, I have an idea of where the conversation is...
My top-ten places to write lists down: 1. Notes app on my iPod touch 2. Reminders app on my iPod touch 3. Post-it notes 4. Napkins at a restaurant/bar 5. Dry-erase board 6. My journal (I've...
Beautifully said. Sylvia Plath certainly had an interesting life and it shows in her work. I love her poem Mad Girl's Love Song. Authenticity is a word that came up for me as well when I came...
Fair enough! I'm the opposite of you when it comes to endings. I like unpredictable endings, which explains why Game of Thrones is one of my favourite shows. The good guys aren't predisposed to win...
I was reading a post about INFJs being attracted to sad things, particularly with music, movies, tv shows, books, etc., and I wondered how many of you could relate to that statement? Personally, I've...
Beautifully said, and yes, it's definitely an inspirational page. It's easily my favorite page on Facebook :) I really like your avatar btw!
In general, do you prefer texting or phone calls? Phone calls. I know, old-fashioned :P I'm too lazy to type a message on my phone's small screen, so I just call people and hope they don't mind,...
347074 ^ His statement sums up how I approach life. It'd be stupid of me to disregard the blessings in my life and complain about all of the things I don't have. All of the good people and good...
Seems like a lot of us are all-or-nothing people! I'm trying to break out of it as well but it's a hard mindset to get rid of.
I agree, mystikro, it's depends on the context for me as well. We all have our cravings, I guess
Yes x10000 to that bolded part. I think there's greater satisfaction in meeting tangible goals because it's tangible. It's something that we can pen down in our calendars and actively try to complete.
I'm the same way. Although I hate being stressed, I work very well under pressure. Low-key, sustained adrenaline is a great way to describe it
I'm prone to stress-eating too, but I work out 3-4 times a week, so luckily I'm able to keep the weight off. I agree with you about the last sentence. I eat fairly healthy but for some reason, I...
Here I am complaining about one mosquito bite and you have multiple! Hopefully they've subsided a little by now, and if not, try baking soda or vinegar :)
Do any of you struggle with self-control or not? This could be anything; for example, not scratching a mosquito bite or breaking a bad habit and sticking to your decision. I'm currently trying to...
Money has its pros and cons, but I'd be lying if I said I didn't want/need it. I'm sure I'd be less stressed if I could afford the things I need in life (especially at this stage of my life where my...
I like being an INFJ, but if I could be any other type for a while, it would be ENFP, for sure. They're like chihuahuas in human form. I know 6 ENFPs personally. My best friend and my younger sister...
Interesting topic; I've never heard of the term anima women before, but I've seen plenty of women (including myself) do this. It's tempting to play along with a man's projection of you because of...
You became the guy that you hated. I understand wanting to get revenge, but at what cost? Making up lies about his wife and potentially ruining his relationship not only affects him, but also his...
I've had sleep paralysis once in my life, and it was one of the most terrifying experiences ever. I was taking a nap at noon after a morning class and after I fell asleep, I woke up shortly after...
My dreams are very vivid and very realistic. I dream in full, coherent sentences and they feel so lifelike that I wake up disappointed sometimes. And I dream mostly every night, so I have no idea...
I'm sorry you had to go through those wars. :( I definitely agree that all conflict comes down to the us vs them mentality. I guess it's easier to for some to kill others when they've been...
I really like your last three answers. I admire pacifism, but I also think that self-defence should be a viable option if/when we're in danger.
Hypothetically speaking, if you found yourself in a war zone, or in a situation where your life was in danger, would you resort to self-defense in order to live or would you be unwilling to...
Hahaha clever :P Not gonna lie, I did enjoy reading your first set of answers because it lightened the mood of this dreary post. And I agree that the definition of winning is somewhat subjective....
I agree, particularly with the last line. I think one of the rare instances where there can be a winner is if a dictator or corrupt president is overthrown because the people will benefit. Then...
You give really great advice :) Thanks, and I'll try to keep everything you said in mind
I like that concept. It'll be hard to break my people-pleasing habit at first, but I'm sure it's a much more satisfying life to live how I want to live, instead of living how I think others would...
I think your avatar says it all, wolvent42.
I came across this article while browsing BuzzFeed, and it's a bleak video depicting the estimated 60 million deaths in WWII. I just wanted to see what other INFJs think of war? Here are some...
Hahahaha your defaults sound a lot like mine :P On nights that I want to spend (undisturbed) with Netflix or a good book, I'm reminded of my introverted-ness.'
