So, I don't know if anyone else has this problem, but I'm one of the most absent minded people I know. It seems like since I'm in my head so much, I'm often not paying attention to what's going on around me all the time.

For example, I forget stuff everywhere! Even expensive things that I really shouldn't lose. I often get myself into trouble losing important things because I can't seem to stay in the moment. I will have been holding something IN MY HAND and the next thing I know I'm not holding it anymore and I have no idea where it went.

Is this an INFJ thing? do you guys experience this?
Yes. I am absolutely like this too, and similarly, I am easily the most absent-minded person I know. Like... ridiculously so, and for much the same reason. It also makes me really unobservant - I won't notice things in my surroundings that will seem really glaring to others, simply because I'm stuck in my own head. And I am *constantly*losing things, which is unfortunate because I'm also really sentimental - so if I lose anything of sentimental value, which I sometimes do, I will be devastated about it.

I once walked something like 200m of the way to school still wearing slippers as a kid, because I forgot to check that I'd put my shoes on. That's how ridiculous I am, LOL. You're definitely not alone.
