I'm a great actor because as an INFJ and using my functions, I have an intuition about people before I meet them that allows me to read them and mimic them within moments of talking to them or sometimes see them. I'm able to predict the exact personality of someone by only seeing their profile picture
I feel so different and misunderstood. It seems like no gets my personality. So I am thinking to my self, what is my purpose? Will I be alone forever. But then again, being alone is not so bad its just the thought of it.
Every single professor and clinical instructor I had during nursing school told me I was too quiet and didn't have the 'type A' personality needed to make it as a nurse. Once I began working, my preceptorship told me the same thing. Here I am, 2 years later, and I get more patient recommendations than anyone else because my patients say I'm one of the only healthcare workers that actually listens to them, and they request me by name.
INFJs (FJs really) HATE passive aggressive and push pull. Its the most childish thing to us and we will get tired of your shit if you rely on this type of communication and action style.
I feel like I have certain friends for certain conversations I like to have but I do have only 1 friend (Whom I suspect of being an INFJ like me.) that I can have any conversation with but I yearn for that in more people. It would be nice, however, to find that in a romantic partner.
I’m naturally private and I don’t feel the need to talk to people I don’t trust when I have a problem. People then get offended because they want to ask if I’m okay, or they want to satisfy their own curiosity, but I get tired of comforting other people when I’m the one that needs to be comforted.
To say I love being an INFJ sounds weird to me, but I do love being me. Even when there are bumps in the road (and I've confessed some of them here) not for one second would I change who I am.
Thank you so much for this account. There was so much I had felt but didn't know how to explain and so I felt horrible and alone, but everything I see here is so relatable and helps me understand that I'm not the only one who feels this way. Thank you for putting into words what I struggled to explain to anyone before
Don't thank me, thank your fellow INFJs who submit to this blog :) I just collect and queue!
Like most (all?) INFJs, I'm super empathetic, even when it's not something that I would feel in a certain situation I can see why that person would feel that way. What upsets me is when I can't connect, when someone is really upset about something and I just don't get why. I understand that they are, I'm sympathetic to them, but I just don't get how that specific thing is upsetting. It's so rare that I feel this way, it's really unsettling.
INFJ confession? I recently meant an ENFP for the first time. It's very odd because he kind of understands me in a way no one has before. He notices whenever and emotion passes through me and actually calls me out on the weird introspective thoughts I sometimes get. And he always knows exactly what to say to me. Has any other INFJ had this with an ENFP before?
As an INFJ I desperately want someone to try and understand me but like some INFJ I'm very secretive with my emotions and it's a troubling problem
when i was younger i valued so much my ability to see through people and life and i didn't care if i didn't fit anywhere and if i had just a few friends because i felt special. Then i tried to merge with people my age in high school mimicking their personalities and i feel like i've lost my true self. Other people might think that i'm being selfish and naive but i feel this very strongly
im getting quite tired of thinking i am compatible with someone and found a true friend but then they just end up using you as a object to bitch at and demand things like a toddler would to their mother. =____=; then you leave them and they act surprised. be my friend, not something i have to raise and train. thats exhausting for anyone.
My only fear when it comes to relationships is that the other person isn't committed as I am. I seek for a potential person to spend my life with, not someone to entertain myself for a period of time.
I really like the things you post. I can relate to them, yah know? :)
These days it's either stay updated on all the evil in the world and stay depressed or it's drown oneself in entertainment and mindless, worthless activities. I said I would do anything for what I believe in, but there's this moment of hesitation I've been caught in lately. Will there be anything left of me when I die? Not when the battle ends, because it will never end unless God returns, but when I die. Will I be a shell? Will I be someone unrecognizable to even myself?
I love reading your post on here. I am an INFJ and I am just finding out about all of this stuff now thanks to friends ( mostly enfjs who are obsessed with it) and right now I was feeling so alone and without friends and reading this page made me feel so much happier. Understanding that other people feel the same and can relate is wonderful. Occasionally, I can get a glimpse of that through my other non INFJ friends when they open up to me but, its never the same level. So I jist wanted to say thank you. Thank you so much.
