Hi everybody! I don't know what to say but hi! This forum used to mean so much to me. Good to see it's still going strong. All you INFPs are beautiful. Life has been a roller coaster this year. I...

Right! When you're young and unmarried, you are just friends with both sexes and it doesn't seem to matter. I have always had more guy friends than gal friends. That's just how I have always been. I...

I am super lonely. More lonely than I have ever been in my life. I feel like more of a freak than I have ever felt. I feel like my friends don't like me anymore or just stopped caring. Weekends go by...

Sometimes I'll be almost asleep at night and suddenly I'll jolt myself awake as a split second flash of a car accident plays in my mind. I'll be in the driver's seat and looking out the windshield...

Disconnected with the world, withdrawn, reserved, invisible, stuck in my head

This made me chuckle. yep, pretty much. I feel the same way! I suppose you could get a tattoo of your arm on your tattooed arm, or a tattoo of your back on your tattooed back but then it would end...

I confess that I am way more excited for NASCAR season to start than any INFP should ever be.

Same here. It's a running joke in my house that I'll drink the cold coffee from hours ago before I'll drink the hot, fresh stuff. I hate those thermoses they make these days that are metal and keep...

Down in the dumps today. I feel very cut off from the rest of the world. I feel like I'm a billion miles away from anybody. I even feel estranged from myself. I am like a dulled down version of...

Those are all very valid points. Thanks for your insight. I have read about decreased sex drive when pregnant, which I had. I figured it'd return after having the baby. It didn't. I breastfed for...

yep! Same!

I will likely plant myself somewhere and wait for people to talk to me. If no one does, then I'm fine just sitting and watching the room. I also might hover around the food. If there is an animal or...

You know what's happy in my life right now? I have a AWESOME job. Well, it's my second job and it's only part time and it's only going to last another 3 months, but it's AWESOME. I've never had a...

No way. I need to feel like no one is watching me. I need privacy. I need a sound sleep. I can't imagine having those things when there is a frickin ghost hanging around!

1. knowledge of music 2. my depth of understanding 3. ability to see the good in everybody.

I've been thinking about thank-you cards. When you've diligently written them your entire life and then you come to the realization you NEVER get thank you cards in the mail despite the fact you also...

I confess that I am deeply afraid I may have become asexual. why am I afraid? Because I'm married and I was very much heterosexual when I got married. I was horny all the time. But 3.5 years ago I...

Oh man I forgot about the INFP forum for a little while. I'm so glad it's here though because I really want to be here right now. I've been thinking a lot about alcoholism lately. My mom was...

I got a job at a university library cataloging a record collection that was donated to them. The donor had collected 1200 records of Romani music. It will be my job to catalog and archive them all...

I dream about answering questions. Like someone is constantly interviewing me about my life. I am constantly rehashing my perspectives on every thing from apples to life philosophies. I go through...

I also confess that I have a strong dislike for memes. They bug the crap out of me. 99/100 of them are stupid. There I said it.

Back in 2009 I lost 40 pounds. I had a baby and gained 50 pounds. A few months ago I started trying to lose weight and I lost 30 pounds. I want to lose 20 more but I have come to a stagnant...

sorry in advance for the giant block of text but I don't feel like making it easier for anyone. so there. I really need some help. I am super depressed. I made an appointment with a therapist...

I have been more depressed than usual, on and off for a couple years. I have been in a pretty bad funk the last month. I looked up my old therapist from 2008 and put his phone number in my phone...

Life is good right now. My son is almost 3 years old and getting better at playing independently. He is also hilarious and smart. And cute. I have lost 22 pounds. I joined Weight Watchers two...

I'll do this. 1. Do feel like you have more emotions than most other people? Yeah, in certain instances. Sometimes I get desensitized to things as a way of coping, though. I force myself not to...

I'm so out of it. Haven't had a good night's sleep in a few days. Some days I just feel burdened by everything. I have a really hard time asking for help, it racks me with guilt. I haven't had a fun...

Why are creative women dismissed as âx80x98quirkyâx80x99? | Eva Wiseman | Life and style | The Guardian To my quirky INFP lady friends. You are geniuses.

Too much gives me heart palpitations. And by too much, I mean if I were drink to more than 20oz, I get crazy heart. But with just a cup or two a day, I'm great. I love coffee, I love caffeine. Back...

I saw a magician once at a cafe doing a magic show. Obviously, this was an illusion of some kind, but I can't figure out how he did it and I've been puzzled ever since. He had an audience member sign...

haha, I love beef and men too! This post made me laugh. I get what you're saying. I have a crap ton of very political friends on facebook who are always posting articles and petitions and memes and...

I have a bachelors in psychology and never did anything official with it other than volunteer. I wanted to go into research psychology but my path ended up taking me elsewhere. I now am basically a...

Guess I'm an oddball. I have been a serial monogamist for 20 years and am now married. I haven't been single for more than 4 months since age 14 (now 35). I am not bragging at all, in fact I wonder...

My grandpa was a hot tempered, good ol' boy from the South. He was quick to anger but slow to do everything else. One day, I was trying to walk past him through a doorway as he was in the middle of...

Hey INFPs. You guys are cool!

The feeling is mutual, Aelthwyn. :)

Hey thanks. I remember also dealing with pushy parents telling me I had to play with strange children who just happened to be in the same location we were, as if we would automatically get along...

I posted this in the Happy Thread but, eh, what the hell. It can go in here too. :) --- My two year old son has social anxiety. I'm not surprised at all seeing that majority of his family members...

My two year old son has social anxiety. I'm not surprised at all seeing that majority of his family members on both sides are introverts. It comes naturally. With that said, today I took him to a...

Beautiful. What a beautiful man.

I feel very drawn to this conversation with you and sittapygmaea. And yes, I think it is a trait of INFPs to sit afterward and go over every conversation and interaction, analyzing it to shreds. I...

Dang, got beat to the W.  XXXXXXXXXXtra CHEEZZZZZ on my PIZZZZZAAAAA!  http://freightlinersf.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/pizza-hut-extra-cheese-pizza-8.jpg

Udon! I crave it at least once a week. http://ladyandthefork.files.wordpress.com/2010/09/udon_noodles.jpg (my apologies if this has already been posted, I didn't read past page 1. But I truly...

My name is 30 years behind the times. When I introduce myself to people my own age, quite often I am told, oh that's my mom's name! or That's my aunt's name! Popular in the 1950s. No, not Debbie...

Super depressed today. Feeling like a failure as a person, family member, friend, etc. I feel clueless. I don't know what people want from me. I don't know how to do this whole thing. I don't know...

This thread was started by me three years ago. wow. update! I'm not like this anymore. I quit doing dumb things and now I'm no longer living with a devil on my shoulder. I feel a lot better about...

When you're in a shitty mood, there is something very satisfying about discretely making other people listen to the music you like when you have a gut feeling they hate it. Also, at my work, I can...'
