[BlowMeAKiss1366]

Hi! INFJ girl here! I'm just curious to know what other INFJ girls like and dislike in men. And even a couple of TURN ONS and TURN OFFS. I'm a teenager, so my list may be a bit different. But hey, they say INFJ teenagers have "old souls." (I know this irrelevant, and I'm trying to boast, but people say I'm the only person they can talk to about problems 'cause I'm so adult like...I feel flattered and stuff! )

Name 5 Wanted Traits, Name 5 Turn-Off Traits, Name 5 Physical Appearance Turn Ons, and Name 5 Physical Appearance Turn Offs.

P.S I know there's a thread similar to this but it's 2 years old, so I thought about something new!


Wanted Traits
1. Very intelligent and deep
2. Kind hearted and caring
3. Tough minded and strong willed
4. Very funny and never fails to make me smile/laugh

Turn Off Traits
1. Insensitive
2. Obnoxious and Vulgar

4. Close-Minded
5. Impolite and rude to others

Wanted Physical Appearance:
1. Really tall

5. Clean Hygiene

Turn Off Physical Appearance:
1. Short
2. Paleness

OH! And am I the only one like this? It's annoying how girls always tell other girls how "ew, he's ugly" but then tell others, "oh, I like them for their personality."

MY ASS.

You know what? I'm going to take the cake, and be honest. It's half true. For me anyway. It's like...I'll be attracted to you faster if you're attractive to me, but if you do have a really cool personality, I'll see that quickly, and fall for you.

3. good heart
4. clever
5. passion for as much of life as he can get

I have to add a 6th

5. too serious
6. (>.<) unable to have a smooth conversation with me

physical appearance turn ons:

1. taller than me

physical appearance turn offs:

1. too much weight
2. too much muscle
3. too tall and thin
4. too normal looking
5. bad hygiene

From my experience, who the person is can sway me enormously. I've been known to be strongly attracted, and then feel nothing because i realized i had no interest in who they were. I've also found certain individuals to be not very attractive, and then in person they were the sexiest thing In the room because of how intoxicating their personality was. Before those few experiences though, I think I thought "what's inside" couldn't override physical attraction or lack thereof, and could barely influence. boy was I wrong.

@yarrboots
I prefer the guy that has the mental strength to do what's needed. However, there will always be ways to consider others in your actions while doing what's needed. If they can't do that, then I wouldn't tolerate.

Arrogance is an interesting thing. I can't stand foolish arrogance, or all-consuming arrogance. Arrogance as a humor technique, fully backed up arrogance, and arrogance which you know exists alongside more human (but not excessive) insecurities...those are quite :blushed:

[Christie42476]

What can I say? I don't like making people conform to standards, I like them as they are.

The best man I've ever happened across was an ISTJ, hands down.

The best I've ever known was an ESTJ....those xSTJs get a bad rap, and it ticks me off. As a general rule, they're amazing people.
