Diplomats INFP

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

'It's that Si... I force myself to push through these kinds of things because my grandmother is a hoarder and it scares me.

good point. I guess my idea of logic isn't totally clear. I think to me is means being able to predict the outcome of something, based on the information you've been given. So like, Given this,...

I think I get where you're at. I think it's good to realize that some people will be easier to get close to than others, and that doesn't mean that one's who aren't aren't good to still be friends...

N? Probably Nature.

I don't think F means you/we aren't logical. It means that when we make decisions we choose to favour the person/feelings, rather than logic and rationality, even though we can be plenty aware of...

Oh man, she confuses me. Now I'm thinking INFP, an INFP who likes to dance and be theatrical (I could never do that publicly). And as far as facial expressions go, sometimes my face is really...

^^^^ I TAKE IT BACK, I think ISFP now. Not that this thread is even active anymore, but JUST IN CASE someone passes by...:laughing:

I don't think she's an INFP at all. I feel like she is far too focussed on an end product in a way, maybe it's the Ne/Ni difference. I'm an INFP & I write songs, and both her method and creative...

When I was younger I did. Now that I'm not so self-obsessed I realize anyone can be viewed as weird, and it doesn't really mean or matter much to think so. I'd still take it as a compliment though...

I love ENTPs, but note I'm a moderate feeler. I find them to be a lot of fun, and people who I can say anything to. I once was close with one & I did find him harsh at times, but only when he was...

I can always understand a person's point of view, and so, can empathize with pretty much anyone. This used to drive those I'm close to crazy, because instead of just telling them things they would...

Hello INTPs! Just a quick question, do you folks ever talk out loud when thinking? Being an INFP, I'm supposedly more of an extraverted thinker. I've noticed that I often need to read essays...

Hi, very sorry for the late reply and thank you very much for your in-depth analysis. On reading your reply, I think I'm going to agree with you on the ISTJ for Spencer. I think I initially though he...

I've totally experienced this. I'm 24 and I'm only now becoming able to wear my inside on the outside. I think it comes with practice, and not worrying about what others think. I used to have social...

haha awesome. and YES! humour + vulnerability (+ some bitterness at times with his earlier stuff) pretty much sums up his style.

haha, I always feel bad for proffs when the class is silent. It's the only time I speak up, to fill the void for them.

You've** We are supposed to be some of the most romantic & idealistic types out there. So, just wondering, what is the longest you've held onto a person for (an ex or unrequited love or...

frugivore Yeah, totally get the Belle & Seb/ INFP thing. They are so gentle, quirky, and lyric-based. I used to listen to them quite a bit too, but grew tired of them. Hmm... who else......

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AsnELWjsCsA 3rd had just been made and we were swimming in the water, didn't know then was it a son was it a daughter When it occurred to me that the animals are...

Yessum, was introduced to Ralph Waldo Emerson this semester, huzzah! brilliant stuff. As long as it's exploring ideas more than trying to prove a point, yes, I likey.

haha I think that's a total INFP band. I've seen people type Morrissey as INFP, but he'd certainly be an odd one! More vocally opinionated than most of us methinks.

Rain Dogs, Swordfish Trombone, Frank's Wild Years... love, love, love these albums.:proud:

The ISFP I know does seem to have an 'addictive personality'. It could be a low self-esteem thing though, which from reading this section, I've seen to be a kind of type thing among ISFPs.

I'm sorry! haha

I'm a psych major, and yes! Psych classes are always the most fun because the proffs know better than others how to catch the attention of their students, and how to, basically, best teach them....

Oh, another one, walking in back alleys & empty side streets trying to avoid the eyes of people! hahah

I don't go out much except for school & work, but if you saw me there you could recognize me by the stiff way I walk around, rarely looking directly at anyone, while all the same trying to appear non...

haha I don't think I ever 'messed' with anyone in my entire life! Like beyond a few seconds of silliness or something. I know one INFP though who actually LOVES to mess with people, but he only...

You make some good points. The INFP thing never really felt right to me anyway, maybe you're right! He also seemed to be a fickle lover (had many affairs), do you think that could be an ENTP trait as...

Why do you think ENTP? I've often seen him typed as INFP. I'm not sure but I tend to see him as an introvert considering how much time alone he spent as a teenager and how much he read & wrote. The...

AddictiveMuse I hope so!

Oh shit, this threads been dead for 2 years. OOPS.

Some people say John Lennon was an INFP but I think he was way too argumentative and open about his convictions to be one. Plus, I don't get Fi-dom from his lyrics. I think he was a T, what about...

I bet if you had a few really good friends you'd feel differently. I say that but I must admit that yes, I have felt envious of extroverts at times. And I often feel odd!

First love was an ENTP (pretty sure) and current one is an ISFP. I have dumped both of these guys at some point due to the critical and finicky-ness that you speak of. Luckily for me, the current...

I think you could still be an INFP. You could just be a more well-rounded person than most people, like maybe you've developed more of your functions than the average INFP on here or something. I'd...

... you always make a to-do list because it is essential if you are to remember to actually do important things. However, you are constantly bumping today's left-overs onto tomorrow's list. (They'll...

... you lose marks on exams because you weren't descriptive enough; you knew the answer, but you didn't spell-it-all-out, because you thought it was implied. ... you used to have a hard time...

Oh man, I was so shocked when I got my family to take the test, and each had to have me explain introspection to them. (ISFJ, ISTJ, & ESFJ). It was like some foreign concept to them, which had me in...

Yes I've read that if you're confused you're most likely an INFP. I thought I was INFJ for awhile, this site clarified it for me though: INFJ or INFP? a closer look Plus, I find that I relate a...

Me: INFP Brothers: ISFJ, ESTJ Parents: ISTJ, ESFJ How did I come to be in a family of SJs! :tongue:

INFP Psychology major

I find as I get older (24 now), I'm being much more graceful both in thought & physically. I still have those days where my mind shoots like silly string, and days where just walking in a straight...

When I as younger I had a lot of stuffed animals. I'd arrange them in a corner on the floor, making sure no ones head was covered because I didn't want any to feel suffocated or be unable to see the...

Yes, I did this a lot in my late teens, early 20s. Now I can control it mostly though, it only pops out when I meet someone who I find really interesting and I want them to like me.

Or do you mean that you can be overwhelmed by sensory information or something like that? I consider myself sensitive to my surroundings in that I dislike harsh lighting, strong smells, loud sounds,...

Yup. Although it's less that I think others are judging me harshly, and more that I just don't like myself and so want to be alone until I do again.

I NEVER cry around anyone. There have been a few times but I was cornered into it.

Shit, nevermind INFJs. According to this site:INFJ or INFP? a closer look, I'm more likely an INFP. Whoops. :proud:

haha!'
