Diplomats INFP

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

'I start bawling whenever I hear an old Layne Staley song. It's ridiculous. I relate to him so strongly and get so sad about his death, but I never even met the guy. Beyond that, I rarely cry....

Huh. Nice socks. Are you insane? You're sooo adorable! Do you have a boyfriend? I never would've thought of that.. How did you know I was going to say that?

A doctor gave me a prescription for sleeping pills once. Bad idea. I literally knocked myself out for two weeks straight.

I swear and use sarcasm frequently. Beyond that: I wonder if [insert random statement here]..

Direct quote from a good friend: You do realize that ninety-nine percent of people think you're either crazy or phsyic..? Umm, yeah. It almost seems like I know what other people are going...

Hmm. Finding a cute INFP. That'll have to go on the to-do list. :happy:

I check that stuff semi-frequently (just in case somebody dies or something), but I often go into hermit mode and don't answer messages/texts/emails/calls. I feel bad about it, but my friends...

There are threads on here about what existential depression is and whether people have it or not, but I wasn't able to find much solid advice on how to cope. Can anybody help? Personally, I've...

Awww, relationships are confusing. I don't think I've ever been romantically involved with your type, but my INTJ brother and I grew up together and get along really well. It's definitely possible...

Sooo...I've tested as different types at different points in my life, and have no idea which is the most accurate portrayal. Help, please? I'll break it down for you: Childhood - Most likely...

I think the ratio's kinda unbalanced, so females get WAY more attention than men. Don't take it too personally! I try to respond to everyone who doesn't ask my bra size or say hay sexy wat up as an...

Haha ouch. I'm on there, and I'm not exactly desperate..:wink: That may be true, to some extent, with the older crowd, but there are lots of cool young people that are just testing the waters or...

Well...I kinda went to state for Math League in high school. Haha. I'm a borderline INTP, though, so perhaps that's why?

Well, I've definitely gone through I hate everyone. And everything. And life. phases, but I'm usually pretty civil. I mean, most people are like sheep. Yeah, they're kinda stupid and annoying, but...

Well...up till sophomore year, I was just sorta awkward. Then, I got [physically] sick, to the point where I was technically half-dead for a year. All of my friends/family pretty much gave up on me...

Mine's actually from a poem I wrote a while ago. I guess it just really resonated with me...

I tend to get waaay more extroverted and out there when I'm around other introverts, so it would probably work out really well. Also, I'm pretty close to the INTP border, so there'd be a bit of a...

I swear like a sailor. It's pretty bad. :tongue:

I've been on OkCupid on and off since I ceased to be jailbait. It's actually pretty interesting, cause it definitely exposes you to people you'd never meet in real life. An ENFJ off of there...

Overall result was zero. Hmm. I'll put the specifics below, in case you're curious! Angles - 19/20 Spot the difference - 43% Hands - left on top Empathising - 12/20 Systemizing - 14/20 Eyes -...

I LOVE INTJ's!!! I've only known one or two in real life, but I wish I could hug you all!!!

I'm an INFP and my brother's an INTJ. We complement each other REALLY well. We're both used to feeling like outsiders, we don't need to stay in constant contact or fill the silence when we're...

Noooo kidding. Writing, art, and music aren't the best in terms of job security. I live in hope that I'll randomly do something brilliant one day so I can quit the 9-5, though!

I tend to let my emotions take control, so I can be kinda..umm..volatile? If somebody tries to take advantage of me (or anyone that seems remotely helpless), I'll let 'em have it. It seems really...

Well...technically, I'm agnostic. I don't see how any sort of higher power could exist, but I can't prove it doesn't, either.

Alice in Chains, Marilyn Manson, Depeche Mode, and Radiohead.

I don't really hate myself, but I definitely feel like I'm inherently broken sometimes. It's weird, cause i'm pretty tough in a lot of aspects, but I can be incredibly fragile as well.

Well, you can observe my eyes on the left... They change from blue to grey, depending on the lighting. They're pretty big, so people definitely notice them. I've been told there's a certain...

NOOO NOT MY KITTIES!!!! Monster and Beast are seriously my BFF's. I'd kill myself so they could feast on my flesh till someone rescued them.

Definitely another NF. It'd be good to throw in a J, too, given my extreme dislike of using logic and common sense. I'm torn between E and I. SO: *NFJ would probably work out really well. I'm not...

It depends on how intuitive the person is. I've had to build up a lot of walls between my true self and the world to preserve my sanity, so I tend to come across as the intimidating, tough-as-nails...

Umm..I don't really believe in IQ tests as a representation of intelligence, but I've taken official ones and scored 135-140-ish. I only made an effort in school if something interested me, so my...

Hmm, let's see...lots of band shirts and jeans. Plain khaki messenger bag. Converse. Keyboard. Electric guitar. Macbook. Large quantities of coffee. Granola bars, yogurt, and energy bars/shakes,...

My [male] best friend is an INFP too, and he's the COOLEST DUDE EVER!!! It's so nice to have somebody that will hang out in my little fantasy world with me. :laughing: That said, most people think...

I was actually a referee for a while! I'm quiet, easily distracted, and feel terrible for people when they screw up, so it didn't work out so well. Ha. I couldn't live in TOTAL solitude, either,...

Night owl all the way! :tongue:

More out of a feeling that I don't belong in this world than a feeling of worthlessness. It seems like I can relate to most people extremely well, but virtually nobody can relate to me.

Haha oh gosh, I totally relate to her, too! I think she may be INFP, though, because a lot of what she does is really impulsive and based on feelings more than reality. I could definitely be wrong...

Love, Hate, Love, by Alice in Chains, has to be the most INFP song I've ever heard. Creep, by Radiohead, is an obvious one. And then all things Nirvana..

I'm nineteen years old.

I'm working a 9-5 office job right now. Virtually everyone else is either an ESTJ or an ISTJ. I'm pretty miserable, and my innate quietness makes people uncomfortable. I mostly just hide in my...

I'm more into self-destruction than thrill-seeking. I have a pretty vivid imagination, so things like skydiving can't really compete with what's going on in my head!:tongue:

Honestly, I feel like I'm from another planet sometimes. Finding this forum has been good for my sanity.. I don't have any great desire to be accepted or have a great deal of friends. If I just...

Awww, people actually understand me! Does anybody have advice on coping with inner turmoil? I feel like I'm not going to make it sometimes..

Well...I just seem to have a hard time finding inner peace and happiness in general. It's difficult for me to face harsh realities, so I isolate myself in my own little dream world. I feel like that...

I looked through all of the threads and didn't see one specifically dedicated to LOTR - sorry if I'm wrong! Here are some of the ones I'm most curious about (feel free to add more!): Eowyn...

It kinda seems like a trend to me... I'm mainly thinking of Kurt Cobain, Layne Staley, John Lennon, and Jeff Buckley, but there's the whole Slyvia Plath thing, too... Just curious what your...

Oh, sorry, I forgot a link. Silly me. :sad: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DmdVT1wjaFQ

Musician or writer. I tend to lose focus before I finish writing anything, though. :( I used to think I'd be a good psychologist, but honestly, I care about people too much. It would destroy me....'
