I know there is a thread for relationship questions and such, but I wanted to start this thread so people could ask INFP questions about interacting with INFPs. Please feel free to give advice or ask your own questions. First question: How should one start a conversation with an INFP?? What...

I copied this title from the INFP forum because I thought it was interesting. What are your experiences with NFP types???

I was raised by an ISTJ mother and an ISTP father. Obviously my NF ways were ridiculed and called irrational (no shit :dry:) Luckily I have an INFJ sister. We only started getting along when I hit high school though. It was very confusing to live in such a family now that I look back and I'm...

Ok so I know that a lot of us INFJs are talented at learning languages, but does anyone know if a specific method of learning is extra suitable to our personality type? Do you guys think language learning methods are more of a type thing, or a personal preference thing? btw. I am embarking on...

As an Fi dominant it's hard to imagine how Fe manifests. I've got a few questions, especially for Fe dominants and auxiliary. -How much do you feel when there's no one around you? -How do you experience emotions on an internal level? -How aware are you of your own emotions when you're with...

K, I will give a brief overview for people who don't know Socionics. INFp and ESTp are types in Socionics that generally correspond to INFJ and ESTP in Myers Briggs, this point can be argued but overall it can be directly translated over. I never knew about this experience until I gave it a go...

There's no doubt in my mind that I'm an ENFP but I was wondering if this was common to the ENFP archetype. I'm always getting ahead of myself- so much so that I'll actually end up having terrible anxiety attacks about things that probably won't even happen. In other cases, my hopes have been...

I have no problem with school and I absolutely love learning anything that's thrown my way in the classroom. The problem for me is motivating myself to regurgitate the information back onto a piece of paper for a grade. Any ideas or methods for ending procrastination and complete disinterest in...

If you could put your experience as a four in a metaphor, how would you describe it? Could be the whole experience or just a certain aspect of a four. I've got a metaphor for trying to figure out who I am: -You wake up in a building with no way out and someone asks you to draw a picture of the...

I was reading an article about the birth process tonight. A part stood out to me, which said that some women, in the end stages of labor, will make intense connection with another person, or others will withdraw into themselves. It got me thinking about the different ways I hear women describe...

How would you define it? Have you had a date? What was it like? Anyone can join this convo. INTJs can talk about their dating experiences and non-INTJs can talk about what it has been like to date an INTJ. I would love to read all your thoughts on this subject. This is a topic which is quite...

I often question what this universe that I interpret using my five (possibly more) senses is. 1) Is it all in my imagination? 2) Does it all really exist? 3) Am I being controlled by someone else? 4) Is there such thing as fate? 5) Does it all mean anything? 6) Is my conscious the...

I don’t believe in love; the definitions tend to be very vague and inaccurate and there are several types of love. Love is a very abstract and intangible concept to grasp. What is this love that humans speak of? You can go to any dictionary or encyclopedia to look up a definition, but what is it...

Hello. First post here, little nervous. Usually I wouldn't be nervous, and I'd be a lot more self-confident. However, something odd has happened to me. It'll probably wear off soon enough, but I wanted to know if anyone else has had similar experiences. I found out about INTjs and absolutely...

English is an amazing linguistic system - probably the most versatile and advanced on the planet; and more amazingly still, new semantic patterns continually emerge! The evolution of language is ineffable, and yet the extent to which one may express thoughts through speech and literature is...

Before I begin, I have to say that I'm definitely an ENFP. I fit the whole profile and was really excited (yet kind of disappointed) to find that there are millions of people like me in the world. Part of being an ENFP is being constantly intrigued by social pariahs and that's definitely...

AAAAAAAARGH, it's so tiring but it isn't wearing me down. Typically Ne, I want to experience something new all the time. But I've got the feeling it's an extreme. I REALLY want to experience something all the time. I can't live a day without doing something (mostly partying and drinking in the...

I have an insane psychology professor. That is all I can say. Anyone willing to share/give advice about experiences with college professors that are completely nuts?

I have an ISTJ mom and I'm interested in hearing from other INFJs who have ISTJ parents! Perhaps some experiences, positive or negative? What makes your relationship work? What roadblocks have you found? Share whatever you are comfortable with!:) My experience... I admire my ISTJ mom's laser...

So I wanted to start a list of high frequency locations of NFs and NTs (because we like to hide from each other). :laughing: Here is a list based on my experiences: NF ENFP – salsa, dancing, rock climbing, cafes, art galleries, clubs, parties, hanging out at friend’s places INFP – artistic...
