My parents are lazy and weak and I fear my productivity would be 500% higher if I were to live on my own. Does science support this? What are your thoughts?
I am a terrible writer and it is important that this letter is flawless. While I agree it must be 100% original (and it will be) I have edited the original draft a hundred times and could use the...

Yes. I was listening to an ESFJ song and temporarily became one.
Truth is suffocating. A beginner's mind and acknowledging there's much you don't know what you don't know, to me, is more comfortable than truth.

For a brief period I was a paid freelance photographer. I took portraits but mostly product and real estate photography. I also had a papaparazzi moment. I was out with friends at bar and had my...
I enjoy working out too. I do crossfit, eat mostly organic food, and have an 8-pack ;)
I love my job. Working for a small start-up in charge of marketing. Complete creativity and budget allowance to hire SJs to do all the mindless work.
Anyone else a victim of covert emotional abuse by a parent or SO? I've come to slowly and painfully realize that the extent of passive-aggressiveness in my ISTJ dad was a lot more severe and abusive...

Second attempt at this. I'm still confused. I am very strong Introvert and Intuitive. T/F and J/P seem dependent on test and my mood. Books I've purchased in the past year or so, divided by...
I don't think meditation can ever be detrimental. I find it very beneficial. Shinzen Young is a zen teacher who appears to be INTJ/P. He explains benefits of meditation in a practical and scientific...
I hate my dad.

This is killing my social interactions. While speaking and making eye contact my face shows a disgust emotion for a split second, ruining the interaction. Anyone else have a similar problem?

Exact same for me.
He may have an anxious ambivalent attachment style. Inevitably you'll fall out of love and he'll want you more. Obsession kicks in and physical stalking may ensue depending on how strong a P he is.
Why not delegate it to a freelancer? You can easily find someone on Elance/Guru (freelancing sites)
Thanks Lad, that made perfect sense. You hit it on the nail: confidence is king. For INFP, we may be introverts, but that doesn't deny us the ability to be confident. And it's that quiet, James...
Thanks guys! Matchbook, you spoke like a licensed psychologist with years of practice! I feel better :)
Had two HORRIBLE social situations happen this past week because of mind reading. Horrible, embarrassing, and the kind of stuff that makes you question your sanity! In short, I assumed a girl was...
Thanks Miro, what you said pretty much aligns with what I'm going through. I have cousins who think I'm gay and it's a little frustrating (though believe me I'm 100% supportive of being gay and have...
Could some of you INFP guys elaborate on this. My 'insecurity' relapses each time I have a terrible experience with girls. A girl practically throws herself on me and I can't close the deal. Or...
Capitalism was great in the early 20th century. It has now reached a level of betraying itself. We need some sort of new hybrid economical system that doesn't exist today.
Just be mindful those are just stories you've created in your head that don't represent reality. Behaving congruently with those thoughts only reinforces the problem. Only real fix is to ignore those...
Nicely said :) While I agree 100%... in many infidelity stories I've read, woman mention they're still in love with their husband/boyfriend. They're able to compartmentalize that deep love with...
As I get older, I'm becoming painfully aware of just how common cheating is. Boyfriends and girlfriends. Husbands and wives. My Ei tells me a good 90% cheat. The evidence? I've heard the personal...

I tried and I tried but only feelings and images come to mind and I'm finding it very difficult to translate it all into words. When I do and read it, it's just not congruent with what I had in mind....

I only don't like my F when it gets in the way of earning an A in class. If I was a T, i would have a 3.5+ gpa. Because of my F.. it's 2.8 :angry:
