'Improbable....
I wish I wouldn't so easily be embarrassed by mistakes I make. Everybody makes mistakes, right? So why am I such a perfectionist that when I make a mistake and somebody notices that, I feel...
So sorry! :(
Oh, I don't like it, I sometimes have this argument with my husband...I don't want him to organize or clean out (something he'd rarely do anyway) any of my stuff unless I have said so. Neither do I...
First, I am no longer sure if I really use Fi over Fe, I seem to care quite a lot about what other people think of me. I also notice what other people may be feeling, I always try to read people's...
So I've answered the what's my type questionnaire. 0. Life is a bit stressful currently with two small children and my decision to change my career direction at this age (above 40) as I am not...
I am so mad at my boss right now. If I could, I'd leave. I'd miss my colleagues but not him, definitely. But I have to be responsible and keep this job for a while at least for my children's sake....
I laugh at silly things all the time. It doesn't take much to amuse me. I think many of my friends and coworkers think I am a little crazy and laugh too much but I really don't care. At least I am...
I am currently quite strangely at peace with myself. Only in the back of my mind the thought is lurking: This can't for sure last. Which, of course, is true, but it's annoying nonetheless!:kitteh:
And I hate that I can't stand up for what I believe in against my mother. Just because I don't want to have a conflict with her. I had that in the past and we ended up not speaking for a year. I feel...
I think I am slipping into some sort of depression. I am extremely tired and I am having hard time controlling my emotions. I try to put up a happy face while inside it's such a turmoil. Where do I...

I have two small children and they definitely don't have the same type of personality. My daughter, who's seven, is probably an ENFP, very social but sensitive with a very creative mind. She has a...
I frequently test as INTP as my F/T are rather balanced. On function tests I usually get INFP and after a lot of confusion and thinking I have settled for INFP.
Well, maybe you can become a specialized nurse in future and be part of clinical research or something like that? Explore various options and a combination of different skills is never wrong. I am a...
Sounds like me too...I don't know much about enneagram but I also test as 5w4.
My cat used to get a few spoons wet cat food once a day but she has somehow by her persistent meowing gotten me to to give it to her at least a couple of times a day. At weekends when I am home most...
Yes...and not something but somebody but I know any step I'll take towards realization of my desires will lead to pain and even more suffering so I refrain.
There is something I want to tell you but I don't know if I dare. It's inappropriate, inconvenient and impossible. What I am referring to is what I feel for you. I am married and you're together...

I am feeling so guilty...I got a job offer today to return to my old workplace/lab until next summer, an offer I couldn't refuse as I have been unemployed for seven months. So why do I feel guilty?...
I can only agree with you. I may look fragile and cute but I am not. Sure I am sensitive but I know how to deal with stuff. Maybe it is because I am older.
When you read the thread you know you're a judger when you... and almost get an anxiety attack! :D
I am INFP and I have a husband who might be an ENTJ, he certainly behaves like one and once I made him take the test and it turned out to be ENTJ. I am not very sure of this though. Anyway, I do...
I love cats. I like that they are independent. Have one little Persian. She's very sweet and gentle but has her mind of her own and can look so angry. I think I identify myself too much with her at...
INFP here. Joined apparently in 2007 out of curiosity as I read about it in a newspaper. Somehow an old classmate found me and sent me a friend request. So for a couple of years I had one facebook...
21792 well, these are my eyes....! And I am kind of bored...
I've never heard of minors in PhD either, I am located in Scandinavia but did my postdoc in US and didn't hear anything like that from the grad students in the lab. There are a bunch of short courses...
This is probably the worst case I have heard of. I have heard of a couple of canceled dissertations due to overlooking of some details that turned out to be very important but nothing like this. 14...
I was going to write a post about how important it is to choose the right advisor, not easy since most of the time you maybe only think about the topic that interests you. It's a long road to a PhD...

I believe I am an INFP and I have a PhD in microbiology. I survived it all but I admit I was never one of the best. I was too distracted at times. But it all boils down to motivation, are you...
Well, you were projecting your own fears on him, weren't you? His refusal to accept your help was ultimately his decision and nothing to take personally, no reason to get angry in my opinion. On...
It's not about weakness, it's about motivation. Maybe they are not as motivated as you? It all boils down to what drives you in life. And when it comes to pushing...if somebody tries to push me...
I always loved science, especially biology, so I ended up getting a PhD degree in microbiology. But I do get bored by at times, I have hard time keeping interest in scientific discussions when they...
As another poster said, take it with a grain of salt but I don't see any harm in typing children. I have two children and my daughter who is 6 seemed to be an extravert from the start when she was a...
Well, I agree that networking is very important for getting a job. My last three jobs I got by networking. I am out of job again and trying to use my contacts as much as I can. Today I paid a visit...
Gosh, this happened to me once. Years ago I started a new job and after a few months I noticed a large cabinet just outside my office door. I asked, somewhat puzzled, a colleague of mine: when did...
Another cat person here!:happy: And here is a picture of my adorable little kitty! 14442
And when you spend a lot of time on lengthy imaginery conversations with somebody you like. Not only do you imagine what you say and what he/she will say but also their face expressions & body...
Well, it's good to read that there are people like me out there. I have two small kids to take care of so some things I have no choice but to do whether I like it or not. In fact, that is almost the...
Another one new here!:) I'm probably quite a bit older than most of you here but I hope I am still welcome here! I was really into C.G Jung's theories when I was in my twenties but then real life...
INFJ 50% Extroverted, 49% Sensing, 39% Thinking, 44% Perceiving You seek meaning and connection in ideas, relationships, and material possessions, and want to understand what motivates people...
You have to rescue the poor snails crawling on the pathway/road after a rain from getting crushed by ignorant people who can't see them. You even make your kids do this! And you feel guilty if you...
Logically I know all this. I've analyzed myself to death. Still, can't shake this feeling off. Once I almost failed an exam (long time ago)...hated that feeling so after that I did excellent on each...
Spiders. Hate them. Fear of failure. Hate that. Both failing and being afraid of it.
I'm not sure if I am an INFP or INTP, but, yes, I tend to sit in strange ways. At the dining table usually one foot tucked under me and sprawled out at other places. I am around 40 and mother of two,...'
