MBTI

Mediator

Diplomats INFP

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

'I can relate to this. ENFJs are great, but they can be a little too...rigid? I eventually start to feel like I'm walking on eggshells. Like I can't be myself. But ENFPs seem to magically put me at...

Hi! I'm new here, and just discovered MBTI about a year ago. I can say with certainty that I am an INFP...I know that MBTI says our natural parters are either ENFJ or ESFJ, and I used to believe...

I've been friends with this particular ENFJ for around 8 years now. We used to be best friends, but lately, we've been drifting. Having a real conversation with her feels like pulling teeth, and it's...

I've spent the longest time believing that I am ISFP, but the more I think about it, I'm really not sure. I am certain that I am IxFP, but the S and N difference is confusing me. How do you tell...

I personally love INFPs! They're so chill. That's what I love the most about them. Absolutely no drama! The great thing about sharing the Fi-dom is that we both try to make the relationship as...

I can really relate to this, especially the magnetic thing. ESFJs just seem to understand me like no other type, except for other ISFPs. I really wish it was easier to find an ESFJ guy!

I can find something good with almost anyone, but for the most part, I seem to be attracted mainly to other SF types. ESFJ, in particular. Communication just flows so easily. But lately, I've had...

I have an ESFJ friend who cannot and will not stop asking me for my opinion. She just moved into a new house, and she's constantly asking me what color she should paint the walls, which furniture she...

I've never dated one. It's kinda hard to find an ESFJ male, and the ones that I do know are already taken. :dry: I've been friends with a lot of them, and they're great. Of course, the immature...

That's another thing I love about INFPs. No drama. Obviously, there are going to be disagreements, but I've found that with the Fi dom in common, we both want to keep things as peaceful and happy as...

I've been thinking a lot about this particular type. I'm finding that I get along pretty well with INFP guys...they're so laid back and easy to talk to. I really like them a lot. :) I always thought...

I agree completely. I really don't see a lot of introversion in her. She's so open and expressive with her emotions, and that's not a trait that a typical introvert would have, especially ISFPs. I...

Ha, I also thought about ESFP.

I've been thinking about this a lot, and I've come to the conclusion that she is an ESFJ. Loves to perform, has said before that she never gets tired of being around people, always has to talk to...

I have several close friendships with ESFJs. They are my favorite of all the types. However, they are absolutely terrible at picking up on hints. There are days when I'm exhausted from work or life...

I don't know very many INFJs, but one of them is a co worker of mine...Most of the time, I feel like I'm typically pretty good at concealing my true emotions. I was going through something terrible...

Or psychic. Or both. Sometimes I feel like I can't friggin hide anything from you guys. IT'S LIKE YOU'RE INSIDE OF MY HEAD. :dry:

It's funny you should mention that. I have also considered teaching English as a second language!

Well, thanks. You mentioned a lot of things I never thought of before. I never thought of it, but our creativity and intuition really would help with the older ones. Thanks for the encouragement. :D

I'm a sophomore in college and I am seriously considering becoming an English teacher. I would really love teaching the middle school or high school levels, but everyone I've met seems to think that...

I personally love ESFPs. I don't think I could ever be in a relationship with one, but they are AWESOME as friends!

The types that have always attracted me the most have been the SF types. I just feel so completely understood and at ease when I'm with them.

gosh, thanks for making me tear up. all of that sounds like my mom...I honestly think anyone with an ESFJ mother or just parent in general is incredibly lucky. And you should totally start that...

My mom is also an ESFJ and that sounds exactly like something she would do. I agree, ESFJ moms are the best...or just ESFJs in general. :)

I agree entirely. ESFJs and ISFPs usually don't have an in between. The thing about ESFJs though is that they make it all worth it! At least that's how I've experienced it.

See, I've tried. I don't usually like being blunt with people, but it seems like the only way to get through to her. And when I do, she just shrugs it off and makes up some excuse about being too...

I'm sure that I've met more than one ISTJ in my life, but I can only confirm one, and she is one of my closest friends. However, there are times when I just want to shake her because she frustrates...

Yes, there is a personal reason attached. But I will deny that I don't really struggle with a lot of the things I listed. I don't manipulate people (at least, not intentionally), and when I do, I...

Okay...I admit, I was being a little harsh. :unsure: Apologies if I hurt anyone's feelings.

ENFPs are the one N type that I can actually talk to without wanting to ram my head into a wall. They're a lot of fun! :)

Oh, I could go on for hours about this. My experience with the ENFJ clan has been less than pleasant. 1. They always think that everyone loves them and they are genuinely shocked when someone...

I hate that it takes me so long to open up to people, and I hate that I'm the biggest procrastinator of all time. -_-

People always seem to think I'm in a bad mood. It's usually because I don't always have a fake smile plastered to my face. I'm not a natural smiler, I guess. It's very frustrating. This happens...

Some of my favorite people are ESFJs. I genuinely don't understand why they have such a bad reputation. I've never met one that I didn't like. Mind you, I've only been around ESFJs who were raised in...

I tend to be very touchy-feely with the people that I care about. I like giving them hugs and stuff like that. Another big thing is just spending quality time with them. If I love someone, I usually...

Someone who lets me be myself 110%...I don't know what else to say. Someone who is just completely and totally okay with who I am and someone who I can talk to without judgment. Honesty and...

I do have a very good ENFJ friend! :) We hang out all the time, and yes, when I am with her, I do tend to smile a lot more and act a little more extraverted.

Yeah, that's happened to me, too. I've had one of my best friends admit that she thought I hated her at first. She didn't like me either, until she found out I was just shy. I think this is the...

Apparently, it's a stereotype, and it makes no sense to me. I understand how different personality types have different strengths and weaknesses, but how can you blame a person's level of...

This has happened to me more times than I can count. It's hard for me to be myself with someone right away. I guess I'm kind of shy and awkward until you get to know me. A few months ago, I...

I kind of go into list-making mode. This happens when I've accidentally bitten off more than I can chew, which happens way too often. I procrastinate a LOT. Like you, I try to organize everything and...

I love ESFPs. I dated one in high school, and he was extremely outgoing and lots of fun to be around. He knew how to have a good time, that's for sure. :)

I've seen this happen too! One of my best friends is ENFJ, and there have been several times when she's been in a relationship, and after it's over, she admitted to knowing from the beginning that...

I agree completely. NFJ types are great as friends and usually give awesome advice. They're loyal and typically pretty good at getting things done...But as far as a romantic relationship? I would run...

Does trust really have to do with what type you are? Any one of the 16 types can have difficulties with trust. I'm an SF type and I can count on one hand the number of people I truly feel comfortable...

CAN WE BE BEST FRIENDS? That was so perfect. Fe doms are hard to trust because you never know what they're truly thinking or feeling. I actually find it funny that MBTI says that ENFJs and ISFPs are...

Yes, exactly! They do feel and they are empathetic, but instead of trying to work out the issue at hand, it's like they sidestep it and cover it up with optimism.

One of them I suspect might be an ISFJ, but I can't be sure. And I don't mean that they aren't compassionate. I just mean that, from what I've seen, they tend to brush their problems under the rug....

This is just something I've noticed. My mom, my older brother, my best friend, and all of the other ESFJs I know can't seem to handle negativity at all. Sometimes I will really need to talk about...

Yes, I've noticed this about Fe dominants as well. They tend to conceal their own suffering because they believe someone else is suffering more than they are. And there's nothing wrong with that, but...'
