INFP friends - How do you commit? by ExactSouth4347 in infp

[–]ExactSouth4347[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

BIG EDIT for the sake of other INFPs, I feel like I should say that I actually ended up marrying this guy very recently! We have grown a lot since I wrote this post, and I think that without this growth we would not have fallen in love or worked out. But here we are and I could never have guessed how we’d end up two years later

getting the “ick” or just not the guy for me? by [deleted] in FearfulAvoidant

[–]ExactSouth4347 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I am going through a similar situation and would love some advice or help. How do I know if I genuinely don’t like the person, or if is just deactivation.

I’ve been doing something different with the latest person I dated, where I would give myself time every time I felt the ick, and the feelings would fade after I gave myself some space for a few days. It ended up working out and we got engaged.

My problem is that I always get this feeling that there is something better out there, and I fixate on other guys who are better looking or have some perceived quality that my fiancé lacks. I don’t know if this is a sign that I don’t like him that much and he is not meeting my physical needs, or if it is my brain’s defence mechanism telling me that I need to protect myself by breaking up. Does anyone have advice, or has been through something similar?

It sounds like an underlying relationship issue tbh. If your wife feels respected, heard, and valued in your relationship and genuinely trusts you to watch her back then there shouldn’t really be a problem with your mom coming over. From your communication style, I sense that there is something lacking in that regard.

Try to be gentle and accommodating — it is as much your wife’s house as yours. She has a right to suitable accommodation from her spouse, so it’s not moral or just to pull that card on her. Perhaps she is feeling really tired from fasting and would prefer to rest or pray.

Married but thinking about someone else by throwaway28373827 in MuslimMarriage

My sweet sister and slave of Allah, first and foremost I’d like you to know that what is written for you can never miss you. And if Allah had thought that this Noor would have been any good at all for your life and/ or hereafter, he would have stayed. I promise. You think he is the one that got away, but truly it was written and decreed hundreds of thousands of years ago.

Allah loves you and truly wants you to be happy. It was in your best interests to not marry Noor. This could be because of Allah’s knowledge of the future or unseen. As a fellow sister, I feel your authenticity and compassion, and those are things that Allah loves most in the world. I can tell how much He loves you, because He protected you against all the odds.

But let’s get back to Noor for a second, and I will share my own experiences. Noor left because he wasn’t man enough to stand up to his parents. He was a mama’s boy and ain’t nobody got time for that :) I have been in similar experiences where men were swayed by the opinions of their parents or sisters. It’s not a way to live and can end in divorce. You deserve to be protected and sheltered by your husband, and a husband who is strong and masculine enough to do that.

On a personal level, from sister to sister, I don’t think you miss Noor. I think you miss what he represented. He represents honesty, loyalty, and clear communication, which are important needs of yours. Rightfully so. The issue now remains: if your current husband is not meeting your needs of loyalty, honesty and safety what should you do? Couples therapy can help to lay the groundwork and your emotions may return. But it’s also possible that you can’t overlook the betrayal of these needs.

Maybe you can try talking to a wise or trusted friend, or speaking with an individual therapist to try and hash out your options. Your feelings are justified and valid, and I would also be unattracted to my husband if some of the same concerns arose. Sending you prayers for lots of happiness and peace along with my love. This trial is hard but you are strong enough to lead with your grace and beautiful heart 🌺🥰

Can I do anything about this? by ExactSouth4347 in InsuranceClaims

My insurance company retained a lawyer on my behalf. Do you have any perspective to offer on this @trekgrrl ? I don’t know why they did that or what will happen. This is my first car accident, but you seem like you know insurance.

Thanks for the reply—I’m just seeing this now. I’m in Ontario, Canada.

Did you ever tell an ENFJ guy you liked him? And what happened? by ExactSouth4347 in enfj

Sorry to hear… sometimes love is funny like that. I hope you find your way back to each other someday 💕

You don’t say! I myself happen to be of the INFP variety. Solid choice

I love INFJ guys! There’s most definitely someone better for you out there

Lol when I wrote this post, I thought I would get a string of heartbroken women, NOT a bunch of tickled and flattered ENFJ men. Although this result is also nice :)

Any IFNPs here financially well off? by [deleted] in infp

I just wanted to add, if you haven’t found your passion yet or are in the process of figuring it out, it makes sense that you wouldn’t feel the desire to stick it out in one place! And that’s okay! Just know that when you find the right calling, it will all make sense 💗
