'I only know one other, my son. Is our type really that rare? I can at times notice the types in people I work with, come across in a social setting, etc. but I have never come across someone where I...

I have used dating sites in the past as I feel highly uncomfortable going out and about trying to get to know others. Meeting people online is the new norm however sadly people are more bold behind...

How does this highly introverted person become more outgoing? How come no one is asking for advice?

The power of intention plays a strong role in how we approach relationships whether they are romantic or platonic. Falling for someone can happen unexpectedly and very easily when we begin to...

Los Angeles, Calif

The flat is yours not his, respect should be going both ways which he isnt giving. Always talk in person, text seems to lead to miscommunication. Its funny how infps can be so laid back but when...

Infp's value complete honesty. Be direct and tell her what you wrote in this post, we do not like to second guess what a person is thinking or feeling. We are great at reading between the lines this...

I am an older infp with a teenage son the same type. He is very similar to you in how you described yourself. My advice is to accept yourself and read up on the other types as well. When you get...

Patn: Irish foresakenME: give us a hint girl

What a interesting game:) forsakenMe: chinese HappyThoughts: american locofoco: canadian or american worried function: aussie calm voices, an infp trait?

I was married to an estj for over 20 years. I think it lasted because I always went with the flow and rarely did what I wanted to do. As I got older there was a need from my ex for me to always be...

How do you co-exist with this person if you live with them? How do you suggest to this person they may suffer from this illness (they have multiple signs in their behavior but have not been...

I agree, ESTx..but more likely a J. J's have that confrontational nature about them. P's just want to go with the flow and disrupt anything unless you aggrevate them.

haha, thats a good take on it!

I am becoming convinced more she is not an entj. Menopause has nothing to do with it.

haha..do not assume she has manners due to her age. still not convinced she is entj :)

Late 40's. no kids, married.

Hi there, I have a sister who says she is an entj only I am not convinced due to the fact that she notices behavior, what other people are discussing, when things are out of place, etc. She...

Telling you she is emotional could mean she feels alot within. It does not nec. mean that she is about showing emotion face to face with someone. She could also feel more comfortable texting you...

I am an older infp, things dont really change much in how we think/feel but they do change in how we communicate and socialize with others as we age. My guess is she started wondering about all the...

I find the sj types have that preppy look going on. Infp's have a laid back look with style that isnt forced :)

Look in places where YOU would not normally go. Maybe a bookstore at the self-help or fantasy section or the corner where they are alone from the rest reading. Hiking and parks are good places too...

well said. we are the type that can be most understanding, accepting and intrigued by their nature...sad it cannot be reciprocated for some. I am sure there are ultra-healthy intp's out there.

Just ended a friendship? relationship? aquaintance-ship with an INTP. I am sure you infp's have enountered the puzzzling way a relationship unfolds with this type and you are taken on a rollercoaster...

I change my mind, I now want a loris.Thats the best video ever, it made my morning :)

I want a Welsh Pembroke Corgi, they are so cute and have these stumpy legs. It looks like they have a wiggle to their walk :)

I have asked alot of people I work with or friends to take the Keirsey test. What I have noticed is the sj's will be hesitant and question why I want to know their type. The rest of the types...

I would say that if I truly meant it. Otherwise there is no point in bringing it up.

Theatres that show indie films but then you couldnt really meet because we would be watching the movie. I like the super secret card idea :)

I dated a couple of esfp's, they can be very warm and caring in a physical way. They are spontaneous which I love because it draws me out of my shell and I become this free spirit. They know how to...

I have been trying to understand the cognitive functions..this is excellent! Bravo :)

I go through each of the functions in my mind and ask myself which reflects the person more x or y..this is very inaccurate but I have been right on some. Its usually the nf's and nt's that I cannot...

You can add me as well, I dont have many friends but the ones I do have turned out to be very cool. It doesnt mean you HAVE to stay in contact. As I always say practice a function (extraversion in...

There is no relationship established yet, practice directness in a kind way. This is difficult for infps but it will save you time and energy that can be used for other things. Thank you for asking...

I was playing in the streets when I was a young girl and I never thought about whether I had to be girly or not. Now that I am a grown woman I am not into the makeup, clothes, etc..but I do feel girl...

I think infp's have style without really trying...just sayin :)

I was married to an estj who would leave me alone in large groups, I got used to it and the times I did become more extraverted were the times where the conversations werent superficial. I open up...

Hi fellow infp's, I want to know what your preferred style of dress is..this goes for all the guys as well. What do you love to wear when you dont have to dress work appropriate? For myself I am a...

I agree, a person with a strong inner core that can be alone for a while after a break-up comes out ahead in the end. My guess is he does not want to think and feel about what happened. Sorry you...

I am an infp parent and I can say it has brought me closer to my sons as they get older. Since learning about MBTI/Keirsey, I have introduced this knowledge to them. One is an infp, the other an estp...

The extraverts I have dated bring me out of my shell, yet the introverts make me feel more. I try to be unbiased but my gut is telling me another introvert is going to 'get me' yet both care deeply.

I have a close intp friend and one that I want to get close to relationship-wise. What I have noticed is you are as emotional as us yet you do not show it, not until you have a true comfort level and...

when you say a silent 'im sorry' to a spider you are about to kill

You just gave me a thought for another thread......are nt's and nf's competitive? Haha...ill post later . Thanks :)

Just wondering if any of you nf's or nt's are into watching sports or actually play? I have little interest but do notice the sp's & sj's love it. If so...what sport interests you?

I got ENTP, how many of us actually have our ideal mate? What happened to the sj's and sp's..dont nobody want them?

Put yourself out there with others from time to time. Growing older is going to change your pov. We internalize and dream up this world that no one can see but us, what I have heard from interacting...

I would probably continue to wonder why: I feel socially awkward at times Love being alone so much I want to understand others Wish I knew I was an infp when I was a teen, it would have saved...

Everyone had such nice eyes! I have a thing for the eyes, especially men with almond shaped ones..I love it.'
