Diplomats INFP

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

Omg my family is LITERALLLY the exact same. My parents are the same types too. I typed myself wrongly as INFJ for years, possibly because of my deep-seated role as the organiser/saviour of the...

Oh wow, thank you so much! That makes a lot of sense and is incredibly helfpul. My god, I have typed wrong all these years I think. I was prompted to re-test after realising I use Fi all the time...

370002 Hello! So I've been tested INFP and INFJ 50/50 for a few years now, but kind of adopted the INFJ as I really 'felt' the descriptions, more so than INFP. However, after this functions...

Thanks so much for the reply, that was really helpful!!! I totally agree - low self-esteem is indeed very foreign to him and hard for him to understand. He feels like the problem is all him, rather...

Agreed, I'd lean towards ISFP but INFP is a possiblity. Love that gif.

23. Faced much of my earlier fears with a 6 year long battle with an eating disorder. Recovery from this allowed me to fear many of the things which had been tormenting me, and now I'm pleased to say...

Yep, I'm the exact same. Can never act or do impressions if someone asks me to (or if I'm chameleon-ing and I attempt to make a joke in the style of my funny comrades using an impression of someone...

:-*

There's literally no way on earth he's an SP. Watch some of his interviews/news shit and you'll notice quite quickly that he lives in the realm of ideas and possibilities. He's very future-oriented....

All the time. The best stuff is when I'm writing a story, and somehow all the things I read during writing seem to relate to my story and feed me more ideas. It's so weird, like the world is...

No one near me! :'( (Scotland)

I love NT's for romance - so other type is so attractive to me. ENTP's in particular ;) I'm also oddly attracted to xSTPs, in a kind of 'what the hell are you doing i kind of like it though' sort of...

Thanks MissAverage that's really helpful, and bang on - he definitely feels paralyzed, it's like he's in a bit of a loop. He needs motivation to find work but he's so disenheartened and frustrated...

laura palmer I love love love your name/dp :) major Peaks fan here! Loving the herbalist in a Finnish forest idea too! Literally everytime I imagine my ideal future it's in a glass/wood cabin in...

drmiller100 I can relate, I've had almost 20 and I'm not even 25 yet :P He seems to be wavering in and out of depressive thinking; some days he's really full of energy and sends away tons of...

Sure, thank you!

Thanks for your response. You think so? That it's normal, I mean? I never could have expected this, but I guess we've been weaned to think everything will magically work out after our degrees,...

I don't think Frank Zappa is ENTP himself, but I think his music often sounds like how I imagine the inside of your heads :P

Hello ENTP's! I need some advice, I hope you can maybe shed some light on a situation. My ENTP boyfriend is currently unemployed, and it's having a really negative effect on him. When we met...

Totally get you there; something that could be so enjoyable and empowering becomes belittling and soul-sucking. I feel like the focus is totally wrong in schools. Yep, same. Even university was...

I liked the comparison to Oscar Wilde (cba finding who said it sorry) and I definitely see it. For me, Russell Brand is undoubtedly ENFP - Ne, Fi, Te, Si? Come on, man! Compare Oscar Wilde to Ernest...

I was a bit of a Hermione Granger grades wise, but pretty rebellious with everything else. The school office was astounded, as I had the best grades in my year (I was the school Dux and got all A's...

Hello everyone! I'd love to hear your stories about telepathy - if you've ever experience the phenomenon, whether accidentally or purposefully. Have you ever practised it/tried it out? If so, what...

I can actually relate to this. I have doorslammed in the past when a relationship hasn't lived up to my expectations. However, it's something I only do in romantic relationships; I have a terrible...

I couldn't say I hate any one type, though I have had a couple of bad experiences with ESTJ's and ISTJ's. That said, I worked with an ESTJ who I got along with amazingly; we had a really playful...

Yep, I agree with the above two posts - 'diplomat' seems to suit our natural inclination very well!

I would agree a writer, just probably not an author. I blog, and I have an INFP friend who blogs, and I've noticed that our posts are really different in that hers are far more poetic, spontaneous,...

had to delete everything i just posted out of sheer embarrassment...i didn't read the small print >_< over-earnest or WHAT

Get a blog at least! You may land a book deal...from ME :mellow:. I think you would gain some fame in the ~alt-lit community. This is how your posts make me feel: ...

haha yeah sorry I meant 'neurotic' as in the second definition...maybe I'm not using the term correctly :S I thought it just meant someone who over-thinks and worries all the time! Sorry if I was...

Boy Wonder you are fucking hilarious, write a book or something please.

Yep, same here. I think that's pretty good advice - sometimes it helps to learn the art of perceiving. A lot of my anger starts off at frustration, and it's usually directed at myself. I get more...

Note to self: DO DO DO DO DO SOMETHING!

INFJs, How do you know when to trust your inner 'voice'? How can you separate true intuition, and simple neurotic thinking? I have a strong hunch that a relationship is going to come to an...

@JeahCee - yes please I want to hear more! Share share! The story you told is so so tragic :'( Like the OP, I too have had a strange uncanny 'BAM' feeling with guys. My first ever crush in high...

ESFJs. I know this doesn't seem like much of a difference, but I know 3 ISFJs (females) who are either with or have had ESFJ (males) partners. My mother is ISFJ, father ESFJ. It's a lovely...

hehehehheehhe this is so cute. Not sure if you're enticing a genuine response or just LULZ but here's my two cents anyway: Whats your enneagram? Your description sounds a lot like type 4, which is...

Thanks Dissonance, I really enjoyed reading your post.

Wiki-ing as we speak!

Hehehehe yeah I think to try just one (or a couple) would suffice. I'm so curious about new sensations!!! On the subject though - I've recently discovered a new calming minty vice: just a bunch of...

Yeah, the light and first drag of a menthol is the best part. It's weirdly refreshing. That said, after a packet or two they would make me feel sick, and I'd switch back to regular cigarettes. Then...

I love love love teaming something kind of pretty and feminine - like a floaty tea dress or skater skirt - with something masculine, like battered leather and biker boots, or a man's watch and...

urgrghrghghghgggggghh yes :S

I don't think it's particularly an INFJ thing (I know INFPs and ISFJs and ESFJs who are alcoholics) but yeah, I have struggled with addiction in the past. Exercise was one of my vices at one point as...

yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes and it usually takes the form of something 'sensey': under stress I eat too much/too little, I drink, I smoke, I don't sleep, I party endlessly, I hang around with...

I have experienced this. I actually handled it by making her into a big joke in my head. It struck me that she was somewhat pathetic - I reckon she was painfully insecure with very little going on...

a ballerina. that failed. then a novelist. still working on that one...

Peplums. Hate them.

I don't really think there's any particular place. I hang out in all the same places an extrovert would. My ENTP discovered me in a club! :laughing: I have met 2 confirmed and 1 possible INFJ in my...

Completely and utterly. I think it's because I tend to see the 'core' of people - from a young age I've always thought of humans as humans and that's that. It angers me so much when I see people...
