'I moved to Japan, but hated it after a few months, and moved back to my old life.

Current Top 5 Albums Channel Orange by Frank Ocean A Love Surreal by Bilal Airtight's Revenge by Bilal (slightly less recent, but I am just now appreciating this album) Black Radio by Robert...
Choir and Social Studies (both of which, I currently teach). I was also very good in English, despite almost never reading the assigned literature.
I definitely know what you are talking about. As INFPs, our thoughts and emotions run deep. It is all contained inside of us, which can certainly have the powder keg effect. We usually try to...
I have entire conversations with myself out loud.
First of all, I LOVE this thread. It is inspiring to me. I like the fact that we're tough on ourselves, because we are constantly trying to improve who we are as human beings. I like that we...
Are y'all sure you aren't talking about ESTPs? I view an ESFP as some of the acting/drama kids at my high school, or the dance teacher at the school I work in. They are always on stage. Everything...
Simplicity and comfort all the way! I do own a couple of dashikis, if people consider that weird, but the vast majority of the time I wear very simple clothing.
I have been vegetarian for over 2 and a half years. It's mostly for health reasons, but the more I realize how animals are abused, compassion becomes a reason as well. I have become vegan in the...
My girlfriend's dad is ENFP. He is really cool, and the only person in her family I actually like, tbh. He is very talkative, but not in an annoying/douchy way like an ESTP. He and I can talk for...
Exactly this.
Rude People Insulting my intelligence Lying (which is just another form of insulting my intelligence)
My mom is xSTJ My dad is xNTP
I'm with you on this, and I'll add my own spin on it from my personality's perspective. As an INFP, I am magnetically drawn to ENFJs. I think that, in our own inner-worlds, we see ourselves as...
LMAO @ cutish, bloodsucking people started coming out of the woodwork...touching my hair, and the I know. I'm sorry face.
Hecks yea! I saw Lauryn Hill by myself. I also saw Comedian Paul Mooney by myself. Screw waiting for someone. Sure, it is preferable to go with someone, but if there's no one to go with, it...
Hilarious!!!
LOL, and I suppose you have to continuously re-up on the pills, despite the fact that you're supposed to be cured!
So I'm getting home today and I get this phone call. It was this lady from Primerica (MLM Company) with whom I spoke last week. She was referred to me by someone who I consider a good friend of...
Hilarious. I often say this when something is funny. A lot of the time, I'll just say it in a deadpan way in lieu of a laugh. Other times, I will throw my head back and yell,...
This is the music video for a song called The Grind that I did in this group I used to be in. I am the guy singing in the chorus and bridge. A couple fun facts about this vid: the school scenes...
You are so deep, intelligent and, thoughtful. I value your kindness, and how you are considerate of others. I understand you. Yes, you can follow your dreams...here is a (not a profit scam)...
I am against it, but my girlfriend is all about it. We had a legitimately heated argument over this. If we get married and have kids, it will be interesting. I think I agreed to do the Santa thing...
Great thread!
There are so many things I could put in this category. In general, people don't see me as I see myself. Whenever I have a conversation with someone who actually gets me, it makes me feel very...
<---Lefty INFP here! I definitely don't think it is a coincidence that there are so many of us in here.
I can totally relate to the coworker. He reminds me a lot of me and I am definitely a strong INFP.
I definitely do what the OP is describing. I walk around my apartment all the time, often while talking to myself. I have countless other weird habits as well. My girlfriend is moving in with me...
I completely identify with having trouble concisely expressing one's self verbally. My thoughts are really profound, but whenever I try to express a thought, it comes out as disjointed,...
I can identify with the OP, because I am going through something similar in my job as a teacher (I would not survive a day of being a salesman, though). I bust my ass, and put so much extra time &...
I definitely give off a childlike innocent vibe to those who vaguely know me. My childlike/innocent vibe will either make people treat me special or try to walk all over me (or both...
I am a trained singer. I also play keyboard and dabble in acoustic guitar and drums.
I LOVE this thread. Typical nightclubs are so completely antithetical to an INFP's nature. This reminds me of that If INFPs ruled the world thread, but more attainable and realistic. I think...

I just don't like the energy in here.
I am known as a very mellow guy, and it takes a lot to get me visibly riled up. However, if you push the right buttons, you'll have a world of hurt coming your way. As far as authority figures go,...
How neglectful of me to not give my fellow NFs a visual representation. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LBq_J08srVA Watch please.
Positive: There would be no wars and less injustice. Negative: There would be less convenience, because the products and technology of convenience are a lot less likely to be made by us. ...
I do not like tattoos at all. I generally agree with the sentiment, if you had a Ferrari, would you put bumper stickers on it? I live in a city (Philly) where it seems as though the vast majority...
I tend to gravitate toward xNFJs.
I don't see an INFP stealing unless there is a deep moral code behind it (i.e., Robin Hood), or a dire need (i.e., Aladdin). As an INFP, I have a hard time understanding why people do things like...
I rarely ever watch TV. I don't get into many shows. However, I love Enlightened. It is a very NF-resonant show. I really identify deeply with what Amy (the main character) goes through at her...
I am a trained singer, and I have other musical talents in which I dabble. I have had a few different points in my life where I performed regularly and professionally. Right now I am a teacher, and...
This is an awesome thread! You guys said a lot of mine, so I just went on a thanking spree, LOL. Another one I'd like to add (unless someone else said it, and I overlooked it) is insulting my...
My girlfriend and I teach at the same school. Whenever I get really down & burnt out, she slips these love notes in my lunch bag for me to discover. An example of this would be something along the...
I like this breakdown. I think it is very accurate, in general. As an NF, I definitely think we look for the poignantly emotional and esoteric qualities in our music. I am an interesting case,...
The last movie I went to the theater to see was Pitch Perfect. I am an a cappella nerd. Did it represent a capella music well? Not really, but I'm elated to see a capella music gain exposure.
Yes! I completely agree! I identify with Ricky Williams in so many ways, and I loved that film.
Thank you all for contributing your thoughts here. I am a 25 year old INFP trying to find my way in the world (as we all are). I currently teach middle school. I hate it, and plan to quit after...'
