'Traveling is probably one of the activities where my INFP-ness most comes out and I feel dreamy and fascinated by everything. I think it's because everything feels so much more vivid when you're in a...
Hmm, I'm not sure if I like tumblr anymore, but I do still use it regularly. I've been on it since 2010 (and it's changed a lot since then), and I kind of like that I still have a blog from so...
I tend to have dreams where I am trying to get to something/somewhere, and spend most of the dream stressed out. Last night for example, I was for some strange reason in Kenya (I love Kenya so maybe...
I've overlooked many sensible opportunities because I was not super passionate about them, hanging onto the faith that there is a specific and perfect place for me that I'll eventually find. But I...
I'm Christian as well, and actually most Christians I know do believe you shouldn't date someone who isn't a Christian. It doesn't seem like a question of choosing religion over love for me though,...
I fee like escaping to get lost in the woods, making friends with animals, and falling in love with someone who's different are exactly the sort of things I would have done if I'd been in Pocahontas'...
LOL. I wear foundation almost every day because it's pretty hassle-free- literally takes me three minutes while driving into work. I have tried to wear more (like eyeliner or blush) because...
I did back in high school for a few months but it didn't take long for me to realize that was a terrible decision. To be honest, I was just afraid to say no and I didn't want to hurt anyone's...
At first glance, I find charisma very attractive, but only superficially. I don't tend to consider it of much more value than that, so I wouldn't say I'm captivated by it. However if someone like...
Definitely a favorite of mine too. I've also always loved 1 Corinthians 1:28, For He chose the lowly things, and the despised things and the things that are not to nullify the things that are. :)
I used to hate driving when I started because it made me really nervous. But as I've gotten used to it, I now enjoy the alone time to think. I turn the radio off often so I can just process stuff....
Geometry for sure. It's intuitive for me in a way that algebra never was.
That is a really interesting questionnaire, thanks for sharing. I got 21, and a lot of them were things Ix92d already associated with how sensitive I can be. That's the very reason I avoid watching the...
I really like running outside, though it's been awhile since I did it. The gym can be nice too though, as long as I'm in a nice, not-crowded, women's only section (getting hit on at the gym just...
I wouldn't change it either. I'm sure life would be easier if I was an ESXX or something but I like the way I look at the world. It's rare maybe, but it's necessary to have people who think...
I am doing some volunteering in the morning and then going to a conference- nothing Valentine's Day related. I do look forward to getting free chocolate though. :) I don't really get sad about...
I can't in any way justify killing 2 billion people just to save a few that are closest to me, but I'm trying to really look at this as if I had to make that decision and I know I wouldn't be able to...
I met an INTJ awhile ago and we've gotten along great so far. He is very intuitive and direct, so it's easy to talk about things that really matter to us instead of floating in small talk. Honestly...
Interesting. I'd always assumed that not having a hard time (usually) taking orders was an INFP-thing. If I respect someone, or if they are my boss or something like that, I never really feel...
First let me just say I know how uncomfortable it can be to break out of something like this. It's very similar to what I'm going through right now. I've definitely gotten better at it over time, but...
Quality time Physical touch Words of Affirmation Acts of service and Gifts were tied for last Quality time is pretty obvious. Maybe it's because I can be so quiet and avoid talking about...
I definitely need to watch more movies. But a recent one I loved was the Help.
The reason I don't like being seen as cute or fragile is because often when people say those things to me I feel that they are patronizing me, that they only see my relaxed, calm outside and...
This is a very fascinating conversation. As an INFP I don't think I've ever struggled with understanding exactly what I am feeling in a moment, but I do have a difficult time expressing those...
Haha you're right, in that case it can get tricky. Especially if it's a person you can tell is manipulating others but they're unaware of it. Then it's very difficult not to manipulate them right...
Listening to other people share their stories and dreams. Having a deep conversation with someone. People-watching at a coffee shop. Reading a good book. Watching a good movie. Waking up from a vivid...
You can sense people's insecurities and weaknesses when no one else can, but you try not to treat them any differently or use it against them. You feel incredibly affectionate towards some people...
Honestly, I could not see myself being part of a religion that is simply a system of traditions. I am a Christian, but I almost recoil at the word religious. Not to sound weird, but to me...
Honestly I haven't interacted with all of the personality types (not while being aware of it anyway) so I don't think I can do the question justice. But lately I've noticed spending time with NT...
I don't think that birth order is much of a determining factor, but more the family environment. I could easily see a youngest child as an INFP because they spend a lot of time unobserved by their...
Even as a teen when I would sometimes read those dating advice columns in girl magazines, I couldn't believe they put some of that stuff in there. It was like the art of manipulation to get a guy...
I think my favorite way is for someone to just tell me. I always have the urge to tell people how much I appreciate them even if it's through a small note or text but I tend to back away because I'm...
New to the conversation, but this is a great article. Thanks for sharing. I think this was my favorite line, If your ego is what assembles your personality and manages your identity, then your...
One thing that helps me is getting around more disciplined people (my sister for example). You can't really getting away with staying distracted if you study/work/work out with someone like that.
It makes it hard to get practical things done sometimes because my mind would rather endlessly think about things. Sensors seem to be more lighthearted when they are happy. I think it takes more for...
I really like grocery shopping and book shopping because they're peaceful. I could never say the same about shopping for clothes though. Malls are usually overcrowded and I always get the feeling...
1. What does your introspection involve? I get introspective about the way my mind works sometimes. About how my personality has helped me or hindered me from doing certain things, and how my...
Yes, I am definitely sensitive. It's hard for me not to get my feelings hurt sometimes because I just want people to like me, and it really hurts me when they seem not to. But I am trying to work on...
You're monopolizing the conversation. Don't you have a conscience? You're so easy to read.
I wandered from home a little bit and started lurking in other type's forums and it's fascinating to see how differently the Fs and Ts respond to the same question. Take the ENFJs on how they show...
I think what the OP said is so true. What people assume about the quieter ones says as much (I would say more) about them as it does about us. Things people have assumed about me vary so widely based...
Guitar and photograph. I'm trying to slowly get into both but I'm impatient...
You are as constant as the tide that comes in every night. As fickle as the rain that comes and goes without a word. You are the eye and the destruction of the hurricane. But I am caught...
Pumpkin is one of my favorite smells. Also (if you are a vegetarian and/or animal rights activist don't read this!) the smell of leather- journals or boots, anything made of leather. (I'm sorry :( )...
I think one of my top sources of frustration is that people often assume things about what I'm like and what I want simply because I do not go around advertising my wishes to everyone. Sometimes it...
What do you tend to write about? Usually realistic fiction, with main characters around my age. I write fantasy almost as often though. I love stories that work as metaphors to a greater idea, or...
It definitely depends. People that I've known for awhile are usually very easy for me to read, even if I'm not super close to them. But I'm still wary of assuming things because that's not really...
When I see people who are usually really professional and well put together do something kind of dorky or awkward I find it adorable. It just makes me see that there is a real, flawed person under...
My inner world is the peaceful place where all my ideals are met. People are kind to each other, everyone is intuitive enough to know that just because I am reserved doesn't mean I don't like them,...
This. My favorite band (and one of the few I listen to) is the Fray because of the emotion in their songs. There's a lot of similar bands to them out there but I don't know, no one else has that...'
