Diplomats INFP

Poetic, kind and altruistic people, always eager to help a good cause.

'Younger of 2. INFP. Older sister also happens to be INFP. I'm Enneagram 4, she tested as 5 but I'm not fully convinced, I could buy it though.

I'm way too attached to my emotions, to the point where I remember and examine every nuance of them. And I wanna feel like I used to feel. I want that BACK. Give it back to me! I'm self-aware enough...

I'm very sad lately. All the time there is an underlying sadness. I don't know where it comes from (I feel like it has sorta kinda always been there, but it was either repressed for a while or I was...

Exactly. We are not just ONE thing. The Enneagram is an indication more than anything, it's not a rule or a limitation by any means. (I feel like a 4 with a strong 9 in my tritype)

My INFP sister said as a small kid: I only like animals. Not humans. Another one was when my mother (tested as an ISFJ but I'm not fully convinced) said to her eat with care (in my native...

I can see no reason that suggests otherwise.

I've been thinking a lot about this lately. I think I literally am misunderstood (not always of course). I've even had people tell me that I'm hard to understand or that they don't really get me. It...

Ahh the tritype test, haha. I've taken it a few times. I probably take personality tests too often lol, it gets confusing and I start to overthink the (differing) results. I tend to find the...

Just for the record, I've seen other E4s explore here that maybe it's not the core motivation for all Fours. I certainly relate much more to being authentic than unique. It may be similar but in my...

Ni stare in that avatar.

Don't see why not ~

This confuses me too. I always (well, 90% of the time) come out as a 4 in tests and there are certainly things I really relate to about it, but that damn longs to be unique thing as a core...

Wow this is very personal but I thought I'd contribute because it isn't often I try to sum up my feelings about being in a low state. What are you like at your worst/ disintegration? I become...

Well I already know you're 4w5, but if I was to literally just type according to the avatar, I'd go something like 2w3 (achieving through love / loving through achievement, the heart being of course...

Don't see why not!

I guessed Ni even before seeing the INFJ tag - the avatar reminds me of the internal processes of Ni :)

Ni!

Evurr Any luck since? Have you figured out your wing? Some of what you've posted seems a bit more like 9 than 4, but I don't know you and I certainly am aware that you are not defined by a number...

When it comes to things like shopping for... well, anything, then I'm actually pretty decisive and quick. It didn't used to be the case, but these days, something always tends to jump out quite...

The first thing I thought of was my most recent birthday present to my sister which was a playlist of 38 songs I was loving at the time. She lives abroad so I don't always see her on every birthday...

I can totally hear an ENFJ going I'm telling you! :tongue: I do notice myself writing with that being said... a lot!

When I was a kid, I was extremely easily offended. I was over-emotional and hypersensitive and every little slight would get under my nerves and hit me in the gut. Then came a time where I was much...

Was going to create a new thread for this topic, but just found this old one so thought I'd bump it instead. Mine are probably as follows (both giving and receiving): 1. Quality time This is...

I am an Aries Sun with a Scorpio Moon :3 My Aries qualities may be a little bit repressed though... You'd think I was a Pisces sometimes (and I don't even have any planets in that sign). And the way...

I suppose an easy one to start off with is (if you can't already tell, that is): Would you say you're more of an introvert or an extrovert? This would be a way to start exploring whether the...

Yeah :/ Sometimes when I'm frustrated or angry, I start seeing things in very black and white terms, which is usually not me, so when I argue with someone in that state, I say things I normally...

Yeah when I was a kid, I used to try to create a couple of languages just for fun. I didn't get very far, just kinda created the alphabet, a few words and probably a few grammar rules as well. It's...

691986 That whole music video speaks to me and my INFP-ish inner world somehow. x

Oh gosh, I used to have this problem when I was younger! I think people were kinda annoyed at me for this when I was watching movies with them, especially when every few minutes I was like Who's...

aw I want to hug you <3 This particular example seems cute and it's innocent enough, it made me smile because it didn't strike me as something that would seem completely utterly awkward - unless...

I don't see why not. (idk if an interest in the Enneagram is there at all, but good luck figuring out that as well if you haven't already)

I used to be horrible at math in school (just couldn't grasp it) but as the years went by, something started to click more and get easier. I guess it depended on the level I was doing it at- I was...

I'm going to answer this Enneagrammatically (what a word!) because that's what was sparked in my head. Despite my in a lot of ways justified inability to let go of my 4w5 label, I still sometimes...

This makes me feel so bad as well. I'd like to think I'm a good listener, but I don't always remember details about other people's lives. It's like I have to repeat it to myself or something XD --...

I've thought about this a lot lately and..I don't think I idealize people much. I don't think it's such a good idea. I've sometimes felt that certain people in my life have idealized me, and one of...

tbh I can't find it but I think it was basically saying that there is doubt about whether a whole personality type can be constructed around the ISFP qualities etc. I kinda wish I hadn't asked this...

I feel the same way. I don't go out of my way to avoid situations where people from different places can't mix, but it does make me feel somewhat uncomfortable. I'm different in different situations...

Hi ISFPs, Are you into 'hip' trends? Do you consciously follow them or is it just like a habit of your personality to naturally pick them up? Also, I read somewhere about there being a debate...

It's kind of a tricky thing - one wants to share and express, but at the same time you're conscious of others finding out things you'd rather they didn't know. It's really all about choice. I'm...

As an INFP (or any other type, really), how forgetful are you? Do you find that there is a correlation between the things you value / hold dear, and remembering things vividly? Are you likely to...

One real-life friend knows, that's it. I'm not sure why I told him. I guess I used to get a kick out of speaking typology with him (despite him not being interested in it so it's kinda weird) so I...

I think I have noticed / read that INFPs look or seem younger than they are. I can think of some examples, let's see, um, me, my sister, Björk (if she is an INFP, I think she probably is)... I think...

I have so many feels about planning and such. On the one hand, I'm so Perceiver-ish in that I want to just go with the flow and it's my natural inclination to do that, but on the other hand, ffs, I...

My mommy says I'm oversensitive :blushed:

Sometimes when I read about them, I forget that I am one and just go aww I love them :tongue: I recently read someone say that it probably feels better to know an INFP than to be one, I agreed with...

I sort of agree with the OP about the way I will occasionally step into a situation (which may have nothing to do with me) because the behaviour of people is eating away at me and I feel a need to...

Enneagram 9? :) It's natural actually. I think it's useful to have a proper outlet (creating art, therapy etc.) for all emotional expressions so that there would be less explosions of this kind. I...

-In what ways do you act and/or feel introverted? One way I can tell that I lean more towards introverted, is that I'm more concerned with my own thoughts/feelings/other aspects of my internal...

another VOI-S result here. Interesting! Visionary 75% Observant 67% Introverted 70%

It does. It's where people (mostly INFPs and 9s on the Enneagram) go to check themselves out of reality, of cruelty, of conflict, of pain, stand on top of the most beautiful mountain, look up at the...'
