'Stale
I feel ya. My dad was like that too. I remember he used to tell me to shut up if I was happily singing a song, and he'd call me names. I also lived in constant fear of punishment from both of them....
Interesting. Fearful is a subset of Avoidant (Avoidant-Fearful and Avoidant-Resistant are the two subsets). I think I am Avoidant-Resistant (what was basically described in the video), but I identify...
In the video, though, they mention that people with the Insecure-Avoidant style get anxiety when they try to get close with someone (as do I), even though they want emotional intimacy....
I have always pegged the INFP personality type with the Insecure-Avoidant attachment style (I learned about attachment theory in A Level Psychology). In a nutshell, an attachment style is the style...
I understand functions, I just didn't think of them when I was wondering why one type might be rarer than another type. I beg to differ about the causes of people's types though. INFP is so closely...
I was just looking at a frequency table of the different types on The Myers Briggs Foundation website, and it struck me as odd that, despite being quite similar to the most common type (ISFJ: 13.8%),...
Shake.
I realised it was receding after a few friends commented on it. At the time, it was only slightly receded, but now it is very noticeable to me because the front of my hair is feathery-light, while...
My mum always tried to label me as the social one out of my brother and sister and I. My brother is INTJ, and he used to just play computer games by himself most of the time. My sister is ENFP,...
What was wrong with the guy at work?
Brats.
I'm growing out my hair, and it's at that annoying in-between stage where it just looks shit. Today, my boss made another comment about it (What is going on with your hair?), which annoyed me. It's...
Owl City: I Hope You Think of Me.
I love watching trashy, vapid TV shows. They're fun. And I think meditation is a load of wishy-washy nonsense.
Adventure!
My theory is that it has to do with how we were brought up. The INFP personality type is linked with the Avoidant relationship attachment style. The Avoidant attachment style is highly correlated...
Leaps
Dream job: Being a Jane Goodall type person who studies the behaviours of animals, especially the more intelligent ones. Oh, my, that would be wonderful. Of course, how many jobs there are in this...

Snare.
Only one confirmed (and I guessed that she would score as an INFP before she took the test). There are surely other INFPs that I know, who I just don't know the types of.
Spree.
Fantasia. (Well, that's just a guess! But the movie seems INFPesque.)
Seats.
Bluey purple, mint green and navy blue, in that order.
Hey. Do you have a band aid? I just grazed my knee falling for you. One of the cuter pickup lines.
Language.
When an INFP is angry with you, they won't tell you what you've done or explain why it's annoyed them. They just cut you out completely.
1. Clothes clinging to me when they're wet. 2. When photographs from a once-in-a-lifetime occasion come out badly. 3. Music snobs. 4. Movie snobs. 5. Misogyny. 6. Being really, really tired...
Yeah, I'm pretty sure I'm on the asexual spectrum, too. I think I should call myself demisexual. I suppose I will just have to be open about that with anybody that I date. Just wish there more people...
You hear a famous person talking about things that you're passionate about and you want to research their political views about everything. And if these match your own views, you start fantasising...
Those people are just the worst, aren't they? I'm a little jealous that you work as a writer, though. Good luck with moving on to greater things. It sounds like you deserve it.
I find it really sexy when the man is significantly shorter than the woman in the relationship. Like, if he were five inches shorter or more. I'm gay, by the way.
I've heard that Lupin is an INFJ. I don't know, really! I'm glad I've met another Merope fan. She was one of my favourite characters, too. I imagine her to be like Sally Finkelstein from The...
The Animal in You Personality Test: Bat: This is a decidedly nonconformist creature, for as an airborne personality, the bat tends to look down at the conventions of the ground animals. And yet,...
Very interesting. I'd never thought about Te/Fe in such depth. I think you're probably right about her being an INTP.
The long-eared creature, Dobby? Perhaps! Hadn't thought of him. Not Hagrid, though, I don't think. I see Hagrid as being maybe an ISFJ. Definitely Fe aux I think.
Regarding Luna, might that be because INTPs are Fe users while INFPs are Te users? I mean, I find it easier to give advice based on facts; I'm sure that I don't have the same warmth in communicating...
Which Harry Potter characters do you see as being INFPs? A lot of people type Luna as INFP (I do, too) but I've never heard anybody classify any other character from the series as our type. ...
My family has gone out for two hours. I love it when I'm alone in the house, so I can talk to myself out loud about interesting things. Normally I can only whisper to myself but when I'm home alone I...
I really hope you grow to be more comfortable in your own personality in time. As I see it, we all occupy a certain societal niche and there are plenty of women who go for crazy for INFP men. Also,...
I guess I just didn't really agree with you that every man's dad is their role model. I've never seen my dad as a role model for me, or tried to act like him, or anything like that.
If this were true, then why would my brothers be INTJ and ENTP and quite unlike me? Surely it's partly due to just the kind of brain we were born with? Like, whether you have a mathematical brain or...
It makes sense that you would be INFP after those experiences because our type is strongly linked with the Avoidant attachment style (Ainsworth). We are generally afraid of forming attachments with...
I got Hufflepuff, which is what I thought I'd get. I don't think I quite fit the Hufflepuff stereotype... I feel like it's more xSTJ, but then again, I don't really fit into the other three, either....
I recently got a job as a customer service assistant and I've had some very rude customers who've been highly critical of me. I know I shouldn't be so sensitive but I can't help but take it...
You get excited to have a new crush, but once you realise you like them, you're super nervous around them.
I have awful insomnia. I just lie there thinking about life, really. When I'm stressed, I ruminate a lot, which is horrible. I rely on sleeping pills to help me get to sleep early when I need to...'
