'Thanks for the reply. The compensating for something else definitely sounds interesting. I know I don't feel completely like myself as of late but its more because I am dating someone who is very...
Hi all! So I've got a strange one (or maybe not?): So what I am finding lately is that I am feeling pretty down usually on my second day off. For some background, I'm a nurse and work in a pretty...
For whatever reason this post suggesting nature kind of resonated with me. I think thats the direction I need to take for now.
I think my 'conversations' could be similar to praying though I have never really prayed before. For whatever reason I don't like the idea of praying. I think because of my perception of the person...
Any recommendations for spiritual readings?? :)
This makes a lot of sense. My belief in 'god' is fairly similar it seems. For whatever reason looking inward doesnt feel quite right right now. I feel like external is more towards the answer, so...
Hi all! So I'm in this little town called Valemount in bc (Canada) and decided to do some stargazing just cause its so gorgeous here. And, as if on cue, came that feeling of elation as I realized...
I do this a lot especially if I'm in a really good mood. And most of the time in the car. Though not as much anymore I just realized. I do like humming to myself though. I don't care if people are...
Just another thought. Do you not enjoy singing because perhaps you feel like you're not singing for you anymore? Is there a part of you that feels like its 'expected' of you or that since you have...
I love science fiction in that I enjoy reading about or pondering new ideas or new ways of thinking about common things. In general, I love stuff thats 'out there'. Anything that pushes the envelope...
Naa, I don't mind. It wasn't obvious for me at the time. I remember feeling really distraught about it and it took me a bit to figure out why I was feeling down. I must have had the blinders on as I...
Im starting to think this is true. Nice quote!
So awhile ago I found this forum and was stunned that I had not found it earlier. Here was a place where like-minded individuals could share their innermost thoughts and feelings in what I deem a...
Hmm! Ive always wanted to go out in nature, like maybe freezing to death in the arctic (assuming something went wrong) or defending myself against an animal attack. Something natural. Or some sort of...
Did it twice via effort. Enjoyed it but found the time commitment involved to make it happen was more than I was willing to put forth for the experience I got. Now it happens rarely and randomly....
This was absolutely gorgeous! Loved it.
You know those days when you feel your best and at one with the universe? Today was one of those days... :)
The ol' lol made an appearance on this post! :)
... I guess so!! :) Nice post! Love it! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fMgPHLTS3Qw
I guess mine would be reading others, simply because Im more interested in that. Im no rock star at it but I get by :)
I remember a doctor telling me about this at my last job. She was calling the I need to victim language and suggest we start saying I want to. Good article!
Like a kick in the ass! Much appreciated :) The result doesnt matter. I think Im placing too much importance on that. That and the ol'...
Do you guys ever experience times where the desire to be creative in a tangible way is overwhelming and so you try to do something about it, only to find yourself saying to yourself that what you...
I had a good conversation with a close friend of mine the other day and he has been going to therapy for many many years, the group kind. I asked him about it and he said, You know, some days I...
Ender's Game - Orson Scott Card Anything by Michael Crichton (light on character development but put great research into his books) Monster Island by David Wellington Containment by Christian...
Oh fun! I love these kinds of questions. And I wonder if the video game is based off of the book? (One quick google... and it is) What are your beliefs on predestination (fate, destiny, chosen...
Gotta plug this album again... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qOB3G6WeZrQ Sometimes mainstream aint all that bad :)
I just cant wait to be finished school in approx one month when I graduate. Im sick of having 'assignments' to ensure that I am learning something. Like I am not responsible enough on my own to...
Yea! And seeing a finished program, no matter how insignificant, I think is neat as well. Knowing you did it from start to finish and it does the job it was intended to do.
I am not a teacher but I think if its something you really want to try to go for it. If it doesnt work out its not like you cant go and do something else, correct? Plus what are some of the...
Did not know this thread existed. I would like to try dating an infp so Im gonna go find that quiet, shy, loner-in-a-good-way gal and proceed to charm the crap out of her. Then marriage, children,...
I know in a few of my relationships there are patterns of communication that have developed (ie i call them all the time or they call me). I think that just naturally happens in some relationships....
I consider myself quite good at math and at computer programming. At least good by my standards, maybe not good compared to others who make a career out of it. I did programming in school and for my...
This I agree with: I'd say she is trying to spare your feelings. And honestly, the 'why' in my opinion does not matter. Maybe she just doesn't feel the connection that she thinks she should...
Oh man. Story of my life. One thing that I usually regret is when friends ask me to come out to a party and a lot of the time I will say no because I'm not in a party mood. However, I know if I do...
I was gonna plug nursing but I see its already been plugged and requires schooling so cant be done as a quick buck. I worked at a golf course cutting fairways. That was great in a way. The others...
When I feel really good, I imagine myself as the 100% light side from knights of the old republic character screen. Odd, I know. Something like this: ...
Nice! Might I also add, my favorite song from that album: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_98Gyg1er-k It still puts chills in my spine!! Just the despair in the song. Its soaking through the...
I make rules now for things that drive me crazy and create a small wedge in my relationships and let the offenders know of said rules. One example is I absolutely cannot stand it when somebody is...
My two cents... I have a lady friend who used to call me a lot. She would open up to me about her problems etc and I would listen. When I tried to ask her questions to get her to explore the...
Ive got the following that Ill watch now and again: -Back to School (Rodney Dangerfield) -Dead Poets Society -One Crazy Summer -Clue -The Burbs -The Money Pit -Star Wars 4-6 TV stands out...
Deliciously dark... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hBcXe2B97TQ
I remember seeing them when they opened for NIN many years ago and thinking, Who is this!. Good stuff!
I agree, the quiet one does contribute. But if you're looking to contribute more my suggestion would be to let those crazy INFP thoughts of yours come to life! :p Are you holding back or anything...
I find I'll talk to myself in the car on trips. I find I talk out loud when the radio is on. Like when a commercial comes on and says its the best pizza in town I'll go off on that asking if it...
Im not a huge voter but Ive voted for the past three elections. I voted new democrats in the last one, but really dont lean towards any party. I find that I tend toward individuals rather than...
How about we each print out our favorite you know you're an infp when and post it somewhere in our city! Could also take a pic and post it on here afterwards
Lately I find myself missing my sister more and more (she died a few years ago). She was the one family member who I could call up at any hour and talk about anything with, and vice versa....
Im a big fan of smaller schools, especially smaller class sizes. At the big universities with huge class sizes I had no motivation. I really felt the school did not care in the least who I was or...
They don't call us idealists for nothin! :p'
