Diplomats INFJ

Quiet and mystical, yet very inspiring and tireless idealists.

'<--- this is also extremely true for me. Its not that my schedule is disorganized...its that sometimes (ok, most of the time), I over-schedule myself, which means I can be easily derailed by traffic...

Lol, that sounds very INFJ-ish. Please excuse our spatial-unawareness. That's why I rely so greatly on Google maps, and my phone GPS. Never fails me, lol.

Listen. You need to be 100% direct with him. You need to bring it up, face to face, or explicitly in an email. Either way, you need to be perfectly honest with how you feel. This is to put an end...

Btw, you sound just like my INTJ friend when you say 'we do breathe responsibility like oxygen and are weighed down by an inability to let go'...wow, that's him to a 'T'...and these are things that...

Yeah, I think by nature, we're utterly self critical and we dissect everything to the nth degree. It doesn't help with self esteem. And when you have a small mistake, it feels like a colossal...

OMG SAME HERE. I was villainized in my teens by my parents as a bad egg, a bad girl, just because I had several moments of transgression and rebellion, and a questioning and critical voice, on an...

Hi Enigma - you're the second INFJ I've seen on here say that they are a real estate agent. I think the idea of working by one's self, for one's self is seriously appealing and its something I kind...

[/QUOTE]After that, with my stellar sales record from GNC, I went to work selling insurance for State Farm. I was terrible; a huge disappointment to the agent I worked for and he told me on more...

Hey, Don Draper, what is this app all about??? :) Are you using an ENTP, INTP or ISTJ as your app programmer??

Girl that is awesome that you found an entp cuz they are needles in a haystack being like 2 percent or so of the population. I have lived with one for almost 4 years now :) So i know they need a lot...

That's cool :) I worked for a non-profit once, purely based on my idealisms, but it turned out to be a ridiculous place to work, and the people were bigoted and abusive to everyone there (i.e. nut...

@Dangerous Meredith - This part of your post below makes me laugh - I am so there with not tolerating egos at work. I had to ice out some senior admin lady who thought she could order others around...

To both @peacenluv78 and @Dangerous Meredith - I totally identify with your posts. From starting out in meager retail jobs in highschool (first in a mall art gallery that sold prints, to a...

These types sometimes need a lot of time to mature and 'ripen' until they're relationship-ready. I met my ENTP (third and final) when he was 31, and I was 30, and he still acts like a kid. (ENTPs...

Ahahahahha! That's so funny and true. My ENTP boyfriend reacts exactly the same if I come home with some rant about work or people at work. His response is usually: I don't know these people so...

INFJ here weighing in on polyamory. I am in a nearly 3-year common-law relationship with an ENTP. In the first two years, we did some 'crazy' stuff like go to a 'massage parlour' where basically...

Yesterday, I was at the mall to adjust the strap of a gifted watch, and as I was at the service counter, behold, what? nay...yes, it must be...a teenage (fellow) INFJ female was waiting to get her...

Hi, I think I was probably with this ENFP through a very transitional, not so perfect phase, and he has apparently since somewhat straightened up his act. He was about 30 when I met him. ...

Hiii, I just wanted to post here after a looong absence - I found the best ENTP in the world, he's the greatest. We met on an online dating site (plentyoffish). It kind of happened randomly, he...

HAHA! Totally. Leave room for flexibility, and learn to accomodate their unstructured views of time.

One of my best friends, who is a guy, is an INTJ, while I'm INFJ. He pokes fun at my attempt to 'define' him as a set of four letters, but he's a total INTJ through and through, the scientist type. ...

I was an art major through high school and university, and I used to tutor kids for English, then went to teachers college, got my B.Ed. and then realized, I wasn't an authority figure for mass...

I just learned that the author of this page is ENTP, lol. You can always count on ENTPs for inventively twisted humor.

:crazy: Ok, I had to post this here after stumbling across it online. It was the 'Evil Overlord' descriptor for ENTJ that did it - that's my boss to a 'T'. She is a demon banshee who scatters...

I was thinking about this thread yesterday after I went to a bridal show with my sis. Already feeling a bit awkward about being there sans engagement ring, I felt more conspicuously out of place...

Wow, cool, thanks guys :happy: Those are some really revealing replies. It's funny how most NFs are truly the 'Idealists' even to the point of paralysis (myself included). Also interesting how the...

Ok, now we are curious. :laughing:

I am not sure about celiac disease's prevalence in NA population, but I suspect it is largely undiagnosed in many people suffering from the symptoms of it, all of which are very varied, so nobody...

I would have to hazard a guess that the Hunzas are an ancient tribe who are predisposed to the agrigarian lifestyle and eating habits of the (likely) A blood type that thrives on grains - I am sure...

Allow me to clarify re: lack of gluten causes muscle deterioration and screws with brain chemistry - it is actually the opposite - the presence of gluten causes these symptoms in people with celiac...

I think that's the very thing lawyers must say to themselves in court when they are defending a criminal, that there could 'possibly be a grain of truth in this lie, therefore, it is not unwholly...

Yup, I'm a shitty liar too, unless I make myself believe that the lie is a truth and MUST be 'true' in order for chaos not to be unleashed. Basically, I lie to avoid conflict or to prevent people or...

So Jabe, what Ixxx type do you suspect your b/f is? Curious...

Hiya, I'm posting this because there were some previous '[type] in the wild' posts that were done earlier, and proved to be quite informative :) So, that being said, where would one find an...

I'm an omnivore. The book, Eat Right For Your Blood Type is very informative - there are four major blood types - O, A, B, AB. O is the oldest blood line. I am type O (most likely positive, negative...

Hi, I was wondering if anybody wanted to put together a Toronto-based meet-up group for Toronto NFs? Any interest out there? Canvassing for your general interest... M

That's awesome to hear of INFJ and ISTP pairings, and ones that have lasted! I made the error of fatally judging an ISTP that I had very good rapport with many years ago, and naively ended the...

Cheers to that. I have a new motto, courtesy of my INTJ pal -- not caring. Sometimes, it's healthier not to care. Just whatevs. Total BS. And then, you will see how less 'leeched' you will...

OMG, story of my life. I lost a very close friend to overstepping the 'helping' boundaries, in INFJ fashion i guess, and like your post, my friend had personal emotional/psychological disorders. ...

That's so true - I will continue to 'freak out' or hypothesize until all the logistics and circumstances and choices/decisions have been worked out, then I can relax and accept some kind of comfort. ...

Yup, his specialty was charming new clients, and likewise on the personal level - but I found that he was very lax on the followthrough, if any. It even showed in his speech patterns, I hate to...

I guess, regardless of type, what really makes it or breaks it is not how attractive that person seems at first, but whether or not they have achieved a certain maturity level and possess...

Thanks Halla, it sounds like to me you have a healthy relationship with your 'shadow' or other half. It's nice to hear.

Hey, I'm an INFJ and my first BF was an ISTP, and I fell for him hard, once, twice, three times...and then after many starts and stops, I just had to end it. We were oppostites, yes, but we were...

Haha, so I see you've already answered my quesiton in a previous post - your wife is an INFJ like me. And omg, I too have had the blue screen of death, LOL! It scared me the first couple of times...

Haha, you sound like the firecracker ESTP I am dating now - I am INFJ, his total opposite. He is teaching me a lot though. But he now realizes I am a 'softie' and that I can't 'go hard' like him...

Sounds like you two have a blast, the INFJ and ENTP- have you ever considered dating the ENTP friend? I dated an ENTP once, but it fizzled because he had emotional issues and dependency...

I hate to say this, but most ENFPs seem really flaky, and yet fun and entertaining people who can get the party started, but kind of like floaters who have no direction. I was dating an ENFP months...

Sage advice from Ninja - take control of yourself, your emotions and STOP. Stop being influenced by INFJ, your brother, anyone. They will all have their own ways of responding according to what they...'
