I can so relate to this. Finding the 'truth' is like an obsession of mine. You know you're an INFP when... You don't post on your fave forums for a few weeks cause you need some time...
Pretty much what most people have said here. I was also (and still am) obsessed with subjects relating to death, reincarnation, spirits, the afterlife etc. I often found myself having deep spiritual...
You know your an INFP when... ~ You come across really cool people online but don't send them a friend request incase they don't like you and wouldn't want to be your friend. ~ when in a...
:tongue: Haha! That's me and my partner....
I never really wanted children. It just wasn't something that was on my 'to do' list. But...life has a way of doing it's own thing....and now I have 3 (bio) children, whom I couldn't live without. ...
I was always told to 'just get over it' but it honestly wasn't that easy. Maybe we do hold things closer and more intensly than others?
Just saying what I've learned about molesters from my own research.
A child who is quiet, withdrawn and less confident is easier to groom and abuse than a child who is loud, confident and outspoken. Of course, I was abused at age 2, so I'm not sure if I qualify...
Yep, I do this a lot. For some reason, it's connected to the whole 'I never thought it would happen to me'....somewhere in my brain, it feels like if I actually allow myself to think about this...
I check power points a lot. When I go grocery shopping, I have a certain order and position that I put my groceries in the trolley and then again at the checkout. When I wash dishes, I also have a...
Yep, I speak sofly too. I'm always having to repeat myself and I hate repeating myself. Sometimes I wish I could just transfer my thoughts into another person's brain, so I wouldn't have to talk at...
Yep, I get it a lot, too. Especially if I just sit back and allow life to unfold and just kind of observe...
I've avoided being diagnosed with anything cause for a while there, if they started, they wouldn't have stopped. Ha! But I suffered with depression since I was a child (first Psychologist at age...
I turned 38 in March :happy:
I've always loved reading. For me, it was a total escape. I could have my nose in a book all day long and it was like the 'real world' didn't exist....
Like so many of you, music for me is like oxygen. I find that I am mainly drawn to lyrics, which is why I love Alanis Morissette so much. I can relate to every single line in every single...
I fell in love with Shakespeare at the age of 9, so all of those.... Lord of the Flies ~ William Golding - brilliant book! DaVinci Code / Angels and Demons ~ Dan Brown - they have all my fave...
My Father was extremely over protective. I just wasn't allowed the same freedom as other kids. I don't know how to ride a bike, for example...I'm 38 and never rode a bike in my life.... I did...
I'm an Aries....
Ok, I'm gonna look like a total freak now.... My earliest memory is being a baby in my mothers arms, while travelling in the car. My mother smiled at me, then I looked at my father, who was...
I was bullied for 5 years in high school..although my therapist called it 'assult' as I was not only teased but kicked, punched and spat on too. To say it affected me, would be an understatement....
I don't like it when people turn up at my house unannounced.
:laughing:
I scored 124. I have done other EIQ tests and received a low score, so I'd trust what you know about yourself :happy:
There does seem to be a lot of awesome people here. Derail away, oh, awesome one! :laughing:
I have been told that my quietness is intimidating :confused: I had a period of time when I was almost the complete opposite to myself. Of course, I was mixing with some bad people and doing lots...
Of course! I wouldn't have it any other way :laughing:
Oh, no..it's fine. I'm finding this completely facinating and since I know very little, it's a great way to learn :happy: So are you! :laughing:
I love shows like Dexter, NCIS..that type of stuff. I think it's mainly due to my interest in the criminal mind. I do have a hard time seeing the violence, though. I cannot watch movies like SAW...
My partner is an INFP also and he's the only person who comes close to understanding me. We are so alike, it's almost scary. When we met, we both had a feeling of 'I finally found you!'. We felt...
I scored 18. I have a high pain threshold and can drink coffee til the cows come home. Apart from that, a lot of it fits me.
:laughing: Yeah, I fit an INFP in every way, just those 'insight' factors that had me confused, as that is very much me, too....sometimes I feel I know more than I should. It's good...
I'm much the same. I find it quite hard to make new friends. I'm really bad at the initial conversation and most people don't stick around long enough to get any deeper..that's if they are...
Yep. I get what you mean. I find I do that a lot actually. I will read loads and loads of information about a subject, spend huge amounts of time thinking about it but will not draw a definate...
Do you mean we find multiple meanings for things? See something new each time you look at it?
I do that too.... I have a lot of problems falling alseep. It can take me several hours and some nights, I don't sleep at all. People are always asking me 'what are you worried about?' and there...
I so agree!! :laughing:
I found I was able to unravel my own mind. My counsellor said I did her job for her.
I went through a period of numbing my emotions..or at least trying to ignore them and pretending I didn't have any. I also went through a period where it seemed I felt nothing at all. However, I...
I'm finding it all so facinating. I have so many questions but am trying so hard not to ask them, for fear I may look like an imbicile :happy: Psychology is a huge interest of mine, primarily...
I just realised how very little I know about personlity types and how it all works....and I hate not knowing :tongue:
See, going by that, I am most definately a P...4 unfinished books, all being read at the same time, all on different subjects...by my bed :laughing: I think I got a little confused by the...
Ah, ok. I'm very new to this, so I apologise for my ignorance.:happy:
Hello, I have done a lot of reading, as well as some further tests and I believe that I am an INFP.... from spending most of my day in deep thought to hating routine and a day full of plans....
What a great welcome! Thanks Crystall!
Ah, my kind of people :laughing:
Yeah, I know what you mean about feeling lonely. Even when people think they understand what you are saying, you know they don't really get it.
I have never met another person like me, in all my 38 years. The only person who has come close, is my partner who is INFP...
I don't often find other people who know about Sidhe, so it's good to meet you :happy:
Oh, ok. I guess I relate to Leannan Sidhe...kind of misunderstood, perceived as dark and seductive but actually has a good heart. Of course, Leannan Sidhe~ Faerie Sweetheart is said to be an...
