'Hi everyone! I haven't posted here in a while. I'm having a rough time and was wondering if anyone could relate. I have had the amazing opportunity to study abroad for 6 weeks this summer. The...

AND DON'T FORGET TO BE KIND TO YOURSELVES AS WELL  http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m4em5dcKKO1qh3c9yo1_500.png

UGH you guys. I didn't even have the willpower to read through this whole thread because it made me too angry. The answer is yes. Yes, you are all homophobic. I'm really really gay, and I'm...

Definitely when I went to an Explosions in the Sky concert. Or, the first time I heard this song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a8XYrNrlBj4

Ah wow, I'm surprised this thread is still going! You guys are awesome :] I've actually been through quite the spiritual journey since that first post.... I've been studying philosophy quite a...

Aww yes, sometimes dreaming is all that gets me by. My latest fantasy is falling in love with another musician, and then travelling across the country and playing music on the streets, camping in the...

Yes, I live next to the Cascades :) But in order to save gas, a lot of my mountain drives are imagined, haha

Sure :] Too many songs in them to post the whole playlists, but... Mountain Drive consists of songs that don't necessarily share any qualities, but somehow remind me of driving through the...

Mixes from friends Mountain Drive Piano Music Rain (melancholy songs) Yeah (collection of songs I'm currently obsessed with... I know, the title is sooo original)

My favorites at the moment are Dark Dark Dark Fleet Foxes Beirut Hey Rosetta! Arcade Fire Regina Spektor Bright Eyes Explosions in the Sky

Try to have a philosophical discussion with them. For example, What is insanity? Most of the sensors I know get frustrated with abstract subjects like this, but my intuitive friends are happy to...

I'm just a high school student with a part time job, but I really like it. I work as a page at the public library. Basically, I shelf books for hours. It's very peaceful and therapeutic, and I...

Characters that I've developed major crushes on: Ben Wyatt (Parks and Rec) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AEbHgSJsODY The Tenth Doctor http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vY_Ry8J_jdw

I would say that I'm an idealist, but definitely not an optimist. I dream about the world being a better place, but I am depressed at the way it is now. I am also very cynical as to whether the...

http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m74cyuyWGF1rb8prjo1_500.jpg This blog is probably the greatest thing ever. I was so happy when I found it :) But to answer your question more thoroughly.... I...

ALL THE TIME. One one hand, it's nice, almost like a compliment. I like to be taken seriously. On the other hand, it brings to mind some of my greatest flaws - being unable to live purely in the...

My favorite anime is definitely Clannad/Clannad: After Story. It's very tragic, but INFPs seem to be attracted to sadness... why are we such masochists? ...

I'm pretty sure my boss is an ESTJ. We are in a musical group together. Sometimes it's quite hard to deal with her, because she is very controlling and doesn't always know what she's talking about....

The downside to being so good at hiding your feelings: You cannot show them when you want to the most. D: how awful

No INFP countries yet? ....Switzerland, maybe? :unsure:

I'm not a huge fan of your stereotypical Christian music (it all just seems so recycled) but, in my opinion, the music that glorifies God the most is the music that is truly beautiful and unique. It...

Okay, but not all INFPs are like that. Seriously. If someone called me a pet name like that I might have to slap them. Just saying... I actually didn't think the INFP one fit at all. I realize...

I've come to the conclusion that it's not rejection I fear, but acceptance. What if everything happens as I would like it to, and it's not nearly as good as I thought it would be? Or what if it's...

ISTJ I obviously can't talk for everyone, but I just try to be perfect around them, and sooner or later I try to flirt, but if I don't get the wanted response, I just wait for her to do the next...

I can relate to that a lot.... having trust issues, yet becoming attached to someone at the same time. It's weird and confusing. It seems cruel for her to send you an email about such an important...

The best way to decide is to look at the cognitive functions. An INFP's dominant function is Fi, and tertiary is Ne. An INFJ's dominant is Ni, and tertiary is Fe. Here is more info about the...

It's snowing... I think this is what snow sounds like. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9rF5NlC3Mtg

I see music as less of a way to express emotion and more of a way to feel emotion, or embrace it. However, the logical perspective of music is an important component. For example, playing a...

True story. Naw, just kidding, it actually doesn't resonate with me at all as an INFP. I like to embrace sadness and wallow in it, as long as I'm not in the public. It's like Mr. Jung said,...

We are watching Run Lola Run in my philosophy class.... it puts an interesting twist on a kind of generic plot line. Before that, it was Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, which I would...

After a normal day at school, I need a few hours of alone time every night. Alone time, meaning everybody else in the house is asleep or in a different room, and I can veg out with my tea and...

:O I want to go so bad! The line-up is way too good to pass up. I actually live pretty close to the Gorge, too. But it's just so expensive D:

I've spent hours looking at this: Cabin Porn And following this guy's videos/blog posts: Andy Stewart on Vimeo It would be a wonderful life.... but it would also subject me to criticism from...

You know how when you close your eyes in bed, you see these crazy patterns on the insides of your eyelids? Like fireworks or kaleidoscopes? But then the moment you notice and start to look for the...

Oh, I just posted something like this in the Random Thoughts thread, but here goes: My mom recently dug up these letters that I wrote to her when I was little. When she was angry, she would say...

I'm sorry that you don't get along with your mom :( I may have made it seem like my mom is a terrible person in that post but she is fantastic! I would consider her one of my closest friends, even...

My mom is basically the queen of guilt trips. When I was little, instead of yelling at me when I did something wrong, she would say things like I'm disappointed in you, because for me it was a lot...

You're not intruding! I don't know who it is you speak of that doesn't like other types posting here... but personally, I love to see others engaging in our conversations. :) It is an internet...

I can't say that I like or dislike extraverts in general... it depends entirely on the individual. Some extraverts can be like my savior, rescuing me from an awkward situations and putting me at...

Doctor Who. Music. Tea. Fantasizing about conversations that will never happen. Music. Instant Netflix. Things that are sad. Music. Obsessively finding flaws with my religious beliefs and...

Sure, that's no problem at all! (freaking out inside)

I agree that actions can be more accurate than words when typing someone, but I think that body language is irrelevant. For example, what do they do with their free time? How do they interact with...

These two examples kind of confuse me... cold as ice meaning reserved around people? (Both INTP's and INFP's can have this quality.) And what does taking pictures have to do with the T/F? My INTP...

My hair's really curly, so I kind of just give up on managing it...

I have the entire soundtracks to Little Shop of Horrors and Bye Bye Birdie on my iPod, but that's just because I've played piano for both of them at my high school. We did Little Shop last year and...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MlVHXixAWvs Not sure if it's meant to be religious, but it certainly is to me.

Can't believe this hasn't been mentioned yet! Basically the entire soundtrack of Amelie.... Yann Tiersen is a genious. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ATJtD54Ko10 And of course, Pride and...

It doesn't really matter. It could be a sad book, or a stubbed toe, or the fate of the human race.... I don't care. Crying is such raw expression of emotion... embarrassing, yes, but bonding too....'
