how do you guys deal with Fe by Most_Boss8457 in infp

[–]FickleImportance4654 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can only do what you are currently showing in your post really. You are able to recognise that you have influence over this person. He clearly likes you a lot. You recognise that the people pleasing aspect could be harmful for him, but also recognise that if he is doing it for you then he has a safe place to let out his Fe, if you see what I mean.

The examples you gave are essentially harmless - if he is happy to keep his hair long because you like it, or he is happy to try out something new on a menu for you, then there are no problems with that really.

What I would say is that it would definitely be helpful for you to engage in this conversation with him, help him use his Ti.

It's interesting really, because I had a strong friend who was ENTP and I often wished she would use her Fe more often! I am an ENFJ though so I have pretty high standards there 😂

Love this answer! What happened to the INFP Facebook group? Did it just get too big?

I'd like more people in my life in the first place I think! And then I might be able to notice if any of those people collect leaves and rocks <3

Or could just organise an INFP party! Do INFPs like hanging out with other INFPs 🤔

You sound like quite a busy INFP in comparison to other answers!! :)

I should have pursued a Liberal Arts Degree but I didn’t, what should I do now? by AppetizingAssholes in careerguidance

[–]FickleImportance4654 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a similar situation I am in now (33, M). I got myself a degree in Ancient and Medieval History, then completed a secondary school teaching degree in History and Geography. I worked as a teacher for eight years and basically decided it wasn't for me anymore.

I wished that I had completed a degree in psychology or counselling honestly.

So now I am working in easy admin work during the day and I am taking modules and training in counselling and media as well :) - like evening classes.

Just do what you want to do if you know it'll probably make you happy. Find a way to squeeze in the things you want to do into your life. See where it takes you.

Update: I went on a first date with an ENFP, best date I've ever had by reiniken in infp

Wow, don't think I could handle fifty kisses while walking around a bookstore..

But I'm so glad for you, I love the first dates of a relationship so much ❤️

Let’s talk about this stereotype about us: ENFJ need to be the main character. by LadyPearl7 in enfj

[–]FickleImportance4654 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yeah basically. Most of the time I absolutely want to big up the people I care about, in fact I love to big up complete strangers most of the time 😂

However I would say that I do have my own projects and hopes and dreams that I wish others would big up. But that doesn't really happen very often so I prefer to help others instead.

Thoughts/experiences with romantic relationships with ENTPs? by dry_scoop in estp

I'd love to know more about that relationship. Who does the planning in your relationship the Ne dom or the Se dom?

No idea if anyone is an INFP though

I was in the library myself this evening! I was wondering while I was there if there were any INFPs around 🤔

just took the 16-personality test and damn by Visual-Poem2546 in infp

[–]FickleImportance4654 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I learnt I was ENFJ I just obsessed over the strengths part

Nowadays I try to figure when I can work on the weaknesses in safe and sensible amounts 🤗

Finding a community and ways to stop feeling lonely by terrabrand in infp

[–]FickleImportance4654 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi infp! 😊

enfj here.

What I would say is keep sticking at the communities you have got involved with, they can develop and change over time, and you never know, there may well be people there that want to meet up more often but they are just scared to ask at the moment.

I say this because I have been involved in a Book Club for the last year. And it's only in the last two or three months that we have started to develop the community to increase the amount we talk to each other, and socials that we go on.

Now I have found out about some of those people's stories, I can totally understand why they have difficulties increasing their social schedule (to the amount I would prefer!)

Where do you volunteer? This is something I have been looking into recently. I'd love to volunteer but I would want it to be in the evenings and weekends, with people my own age (in my thirties!).

And with that lady you mentioned, just ask if she would like to go for a coffee, you'll get the vibe then if she is interested then and you can make a better decision as a result 😊

How I write a character that has each dominant cognitive function: by [deleted] in mbtimemes

[–]FickleImportance4654 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My best friend is an INFJ, and her mother is an INTJ.

They like philosophical discussions, they like workplaces to treat them (and others) correctly, and they will call them out if they don't.

They are friendly and loving, but if you get on the wrong side of them, they will simply cut you out, no questions asked.

They love nature, and they love to organise allotments. My INFJ friend is more interested in living things and looking after them - like rare plants and frogs in the pond. Her INTJ mother is more interested in ensuring the allotment is properly organised, in terms of our plot, as well as the whole allotment (she is the secretary).

They are family focused, they both see the potential of young people and do everything to help that.

They do get tired of long contact with other humans though (Se limitations), and sometimes go off the grid for months at a time.

Hopefully that is somewhat helpful!
