'Nightglow, I can't even imagine what you must be struggling with right now. Is your dad reasonable? Does he get that you are different people, or does he think everyone should be stoic and...

Pretty much this... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dd2e04M-xxg

My friend has been suggesting Happy Endings but I haven't gotten into it yet. I've only watched like the first minute a few times when the DVR captures it, but it hasn't made me go I have to watch...

rickybobby haha, I'll have to ask her if she ever does that! She laughs in front of me too, but just sometimes I'm like, shouldn't she find this funnier but it's probably just because we have such...

This sounds a lot like my wife who is ESFJ. She loves a lot of those same shows: The Office, 30 Rock, Modern Family, Flight of the Conchords, also Up All Night and Community. She doesn't really...

infpblog: thank you! Exactly this. I don't love or hate Facebook. It's great for keeping in touch with friends that have moved away, and my family is always annoying me to put more pictures of...

Haha, thanks! I do have a brother but he is very different from me. People we hung out with were often surprised to find that we were brothers since we don't even look alike. Unfortunately I'm a...

I love it!

My name is a play off of both Douglas Adams and myself. In So long and thanks for all the fish there is a character named Wonko The Sane who builds The Asylum to house all the crazy people in the...

1. What was your first reaction when you met your spouse? Love at first sight? Bad impression? Just another classmate/co-worker? My wife and I are high school sweethearts (awww... yeah yeah). We...

Hey all, I'm pretty interested in this. I love writing but I do very very little of it. My friends and I used to get together and write but that was years ago. I feel that my goal in life is to be...

Yes, that's pretty much me too. I actually try to cry sometimes when I feel a big swell of emotion, but it never comes out. I often get all goosebumply when overwhelmed with emotion, but I rarely...

The last time I cried was probably when I was about six and my brother and I were playfighting and he accidentally punched one of my baby teeth out; it wasn't too bad until I saw all the blood. ...

Yes, I prefer typing, but even that can't keep up, haha.

My friends and I used to write stories together, and I had to train myself to print because most of them could not read my handwriting. People used to complain about the handwriting of one of our...

I see, you're describing more the destination, not the journey. We don't like the way people pretend to be something they are not (so noone really knows who they truly are) and yet we don't show...

I really like the way you put this! To some extent I could describe myself as emotional based on your description. I definitely am very sensitive to people's emotional states. As with many INFPs...

I think I might actually have to disagree with this. I really like the way anyotherday put it. Because it's not a matter of purposefully hiding or purposefully faking, it's just being ourselves. ...

http://www.mms.com/us/images/product_pretzelmms.png Ok, but I just had to check and confirm that I'm not crazy, haha. I bought a blue bag of M&Ms but they were pretzel, and to be honest, not that...

I'm probably still not getting this even after what you just wrote, but when I first read the title I just thought you meant the basic mature vs immature type situation... for example: I had a...

Wow, that's me exactly but I couldn't have said it any better. I told my ENFP mother that before: You know, I have a different personality/sense of humour around you than I do around dad. I show...

My wife is and ESFJ, we balance each other nicely. My mother is an ENFP, I'm pretty much her personal shrink, haha. My best friend is an INFJ, we get each other so much and can discuss all...

I understand this completely. I was actually about to start a thread asking something similar. It seems a lot of people on here mention the sterotype of INFPs being emos or drama queens or the...

I thought they were pretzel M&Ms, but that bag doesn't say that at all. I've only bought them once, and that was in the United States. They were pretty good, but I much prefer the peanut butter...

Haha, seriously, I just read your message, then looked over at your name and once again I just sort of drifted off thinking about all the things it could mean. To be honest it's been so long...

^-- Haha! A bacon wrapped date! YUMMMMM!

Is your relationship with her father pretty good? As in, can you flat out say to him I know how much she loves these books and it just didn't feel right keeping them from her. I know it's best...

Haha, I love this forum! It's so funny to talk to other INFPs and realise there are other people like me. I remember posting a picture on Facebook with three of my long time friends. I put in the...

Hey, first off, I love your name! It seems like it should be sad, except it's so happy, and soo... *head asplode*. But seriously, it's beautiful and it makes my mind drift off in thought puzzling...

+1 Haha, I was a vegetarian for about 10 years (I call myself a non-practicing vegetarian now... cue guilt). This is exactly how I acted. I let people know that I didn't eat meat if it was...

Haha, I'm pretty sure I know EXACTLY what you mean. When I used to say best friend I really just meant one of the friends which is closest to me. Although I must admit the person to whom I now...

That was an awesome description. I'm running late (haha, I'm so INFP) so I wont read all the comments right now, I just had to say thanks for this post! That whole time continuum thing was cool....

I have had experiences that I don't know if they are psychic or just my highly evolved intution. For example I was at a red light at night on a very quiet street (it was a four lane main street,...

Hey Traum, my bf is also INFJ. I've noticed that trend on here. I also notice on the INFP forum that the most common type posting on there (other than INFP) is INFJ. I think they love us and...

Last year I joined a running group. Before it started I was thinking what the hell did you just do?!?! but I knew it was sort of an intermediate course, and I had never run before, so I started...

Haha, I love it! I do this all the time, often about someone I just see walking past me on the street. I think wow, look at her. I can just tell we'd be perfect together because I can tell...

I was terrible at sports in High School (I loved gym class but only took it in grade 9 and 10 - too many interesting social science classes to take so I had to skip gym). I always got A+ effort...

Well isn't this a fun little thread, haha. We're discussing religion and there don't seem to be too many backs going up (I kinda skipped some of the middle pages and might have missed a couple...

Good question, but for me a tough one. I think people who know me really well could answer this question about me better than maybe I could. I think my values are so ingrained that I don't...

Oh, and I do like Fantasy, I just haven't read as much. I did recently read the entire Sword of Truth series (after watching the show), and I quite like that.

+1! I love science fiction. Sometimes I have to force myself to branch out because it's pretty much all I read. My favourite authors are Douglas Adams, Richard Morgan, and Robert J. Sawyer. ...

Thanks for saying no offense before calling my point of view garbage; it really lessened the blow. I haven't read that book, just wiki'd it real quick like, but I don't know that it would cause me...

This describes my behaviour exactly. I have no problem not contacting someone for weeks/months/years, even someone I would consider one of my best friends, and then reconnect with them like no time...

Hey, my friend is currently reading The Field and greatly enjoys it. He bought it because she writes the introduction to a new(ish) edition of The Holographic Universe. I just finished The...

I like jeans and either a nice fitting atheletic tee or a clever or cool looking tee (a la Threadless). My wife tells me all the time that what I'm wearing doesn't match. She doesn't care or try...

When you are reading out loud (to your class for example) and you start faltering mid-paragraph because you are suddenly marvelling over the fact that all these little stick shapes (i.e....'
