Poetic, kind and altruistic people, always eager to help a good cause.

'A healer, huh? To be honest, I've always tried to fight that archetype... I'd rather not be a healer, but some sort of avenger of justice. Not someone who sits there healing those who fight, but...

So... my boyfriend has recently been into listening to Alex Jones etc, and he wants me to listen to it too. I absolutely do not want to listen to it. The program is upsetting, it's basically just...

I had this happen to me before when I was younger... you just have to be honest with the guy. I know you don't want to hurt his feelings, but they will be less hurt in the long run if you just tell...

Yes, I definitely do that sometimes. Haven't in a while, but it feels awful to write something important and then just not be able to actually say it to anybody.

This is a load of crap, astrologers have known about zodiacal procession for ages, but the fact of the matter is it doesn't change how astrology works. Astrology is based on geometry, sections of the...

I don't know how to be confident. I've read guides and I still don't get it. How can I be confident? I'm really good at stuff. I'm better looking than most, and statistically I'm supposed to be in...

INFPs are not all religious, and neither are ENFJs. INFPs do have strong personal value systems, but religion may not be a part of it. When I was a child, I was very religious, more so than any...

I don't fall for people easily at all. I honestly don't understand why others do, especially other INFPs who are supposed to be so similar to me. I have very high standards, that certainly don't stop...

I read quite a bit of Megatokyo when I was bored in high school. I remember there were some parts that were more serious than others, but overall, I couldn't really find much serious emotional value...

But what about when people refer to you in their own posts? You're kind of screwed then ._.; And Dementia, I agree with you 100%. I don't understand why there isn't an edit or delete function....

Point out psychological functions. INFPs and ENFPs use all the same functions, but each type tends to put a greater emphasis on one or the other. The key words here are tends to. Some people fit...

So, um, I was previously unaware that each topic here is indexed by Google... I knew profiles were, but you can mark those as private if you want... Anyhow, I'd like to get rid of a couple of...

Thanks. I really hope so. :bored:

Wow. This is the only post so far that has actually really, really offended me. So okay. You gotta realize something here. Kids aren't for everyone. Some people may want to be parents, and have...

Okay, so this isn't really directed at the person I am quoting, or anyone in particular, in fact I appreciate your post and agree with most of it, but a point was brought up that has bugged me about...

Really? I'd love to feel that way about it but I can't seem to get myself to the point where I feel it is completely right. Most girls shave, at least brush their hair (and if they don't,...

Yeah, this is why I usually just avoid trolls. ._.; Fighting them doesn't work because serious attacks are ineffective against people who think anything at all is hilarious and fun. Your opinions...

I think I just wanted to meet some people who understand me. But I've been here for a while now and I can't really say I know anyone here personally, or the other way around. I guess I've stayed...

I dunno. I'd probably think a lot more seriously about getting a tattoo if I wasn't terrified of needles :confused: I guess after that then I'd really have to consider if there were anything I...

Not particularly. I wish I could overcome all the identity challenges of being a Type 4, though. How the heck is anyone supposed to know what their true self is? And if I ever found it out, what if I...

Women who put too much effort into their appearances can appear fake and controlling, or overly controlled. Men might also view them as an object, a trophy to fight over, but a bit frightening to...

I could not agree more. You've summed it up completely. Thank you. If someone criticizes what I want out of life I will tell them this :happy:

I can totally understand. I can't stand having other people nitpick and correct my work to their perspective... it's a control thing and it definitely takes the fun out of making art for me. That's...

I think this is the only cult I would ever want to join. Seriously, even just having an INFP meetup group to go to once a month would be like a dream come true :proud:

I find I'm actually happiest when I'm working on a million projects at once, even if they don't all get done. Even if I start a comic and only get basic planning and one finished page out of it, I...

I have ambition for my creative work, but I tend to approach it in a very Perceiving way... trying to apply structure to it is fun in planning (yay Te party!), but feels really awkward when I try to...

I'm actually really cautious with that kind of thing. I might fall in love with a story or something somewhat quickly if it's really good, but actual people, no way. I'm not sure how you're...

This is an interesting idea! I don't think I'm qualified enough to participate, though, I don't really know anyone particularly well... guess I'm not that good at making friends. :unsure: If...

Ugh, man, it hurts to see these kinds of posts because I know you guys are just lying to yourselves... God never loved me. God gave me abusive and mentally unstable parents, put me through...

Fuck it, I don't have any kind of accurate self-image. I don't know how others see me and it pisses me off. I always feel like I look like I don't belong anywhere.

Organized religion certainly didn't work for me. I can't stand being told what to believe, especially when it is completely flawed and actually immoral on some level. I was raised Christian but I...

I tested as a mildly extroverted ENFP when I was younger, but I'm a quite introverted INFP with tertiary Te now, as Fi eventually took over my brain. That's what makes the most sense to me, anyhow.

I have a cellphone, but I don't use it. When I did, I had just about the cheapest plan ever, and I only really used it to talk to my boyfriend. I'd like an iPhone if they weren't so expensive, but...

Thank you. I know I already sort of replied on your profile page but I feel like I should do it here too. Your last line really sums up a lot of my feelings about this. I don't want to narrow my...

This is exactly how I feel. If I somehow ended up having a kid, I know my life would end up revolving around them, and I don't want that nor would I have the energy to expend on the things I want to...

Well, I'm really glad that works for you. The world does definitely need more good parents, after all. :happy: I see too many people wanting kids for selfish reasons without considering the children...

I wish guys didn't like makeup! But unfortunately I don't think that's really the case. I know guys generally don't like too much makeup, but most of them would prefer at least some, I think. ...

Personally, the whole idea of settling down and having kids makes me recoil in terror. I want to actually do something in my life - see the world and not be tied down permanently to one place, spend...

This sort of thing really bothers me too. I'm sick of being told I have to do a bunch of superficial shit to myself to make myself likable. I might be naturally good-looking but that isn't even...

I've got something between the psychic hand and philosophic hand. My knuckles and wrists are really bony (rings are really hard to get on and off, and I fear solid bracelets), but my hands are still...

I wanted to use a drawing of myself, but I hadn't drawn much lately. So instead I used the most finished thing I'd come up with lately, which happened to be this pen drawing of nobody in particular....

Haha, yup, they're the best :laughing:

I know it's kinda boring, but actually, I only wear white socks... I'm not one for having fancy clothes or whatnot, but I buy a very particular brand of comfy socks that only seem to come in white......

I think I like spring and fall about equally. I usually tend to say spring just because winter comes after fall, and I'm fairly sure I have seasonal depression in winter, from all the gray. They're...

I would very much like to be an ENFP. I tested as one about ten years ago (about 60% E), then after a bunch of awful things happened to me as a teenager I tested myself again, and I was a rather...

Ack, I'm sorry then. Thanks for explaining. Too bad you can't drink tea online :laughing: I only feel compelled to jump into debates because I see that a lot of the world has got it all wrong...

I took your survey. It's an interesting topic, one that has always intrigued me, but at the same time made me a bit terrified at what others would do with that sort of technology. Used only for good,...

No, but I've been thinking about it a lot lately, actually. I would love to donate my time and effort to a good cause. The main reason I haven't yet is that I'm not sure which organizations are...

I'd have to say art... because science, philosophy, language & writing, and virtually any other dedicated practice humans have ever done are all technically arts. =P Not to mention that the art...

This is a great idea, and I'd write up a post for it, but I know for a fact, just from looking through all of these posts, that nobody has truly similar taste in music as I do. It's just... kinda...'
