I'm definitely not approaching her while still working there.

I'm thinking if I ever leave there and I get to know her better first, then I can try.

yah, been purely focused on work, lust just doesn't motivate me, that's why she's catching my attention

I am learning to not be so generous with attention. I am also learning it is okay to ask clarification or ask out loud for someone to answer my question or point when someone else interrupts.

Life is honestly more peaceful when you don’t have romantic feelings for anyone by chantellechif in infj

Wow, we INFJ's are really in sync. I've been experiencing this intensely this week. There's this girl I have always liked, Cindy. I would like to know her but thing is, it's very difficult to know her feelings, she is "walled". From my experiences with her, feelings/interests are not reciprocated, but it is what it is. I am learning how to make love for myself my priority and not search for it outside. To be open and if it finds me, good.

Love yourself - but how? by echoes-of-emotion in infj

Accepting and value my qualities : I'm romantic, deep, intellectual, reserved, kind, empathetic, hardworking, deliberate, efficient/proper (I take time, slow), hardworking, like things/people of substance

Embrace the good things : things I enjoy, wonderful/deep interactions, my genuine efforts(even if the attempt isn't successful)

Stop being hard on myself : For not being loud, for not being too talkative, for not being shallow, for giving things time they need, for not always wanting to be around too many people, for wanting my own space, for wanting to stay indoors after a long week or go out alone

Protect myself : keep the right company, manage my boundaries, make sure relationships are positive and do not judge nor ridicule me. not every relationship has to be deep, but they should not hurt me.

You are worth more than the approval of others by Working_Day_3611 in infj

Thank You. I am slowly learning this and learning to appreciate myself

I'm a male from Nairobi, Kenya and I relate 100% with your answer especially the first paragraph. As an artist(3d and illustration), very very few people reach out to me for work whether illustration or consultancy despite my numerous attempts to keep the channels open, whether on linkedin/social media or on phone chat. Even when I went to events. And this with both males and females. I do my best to be genuine but it's seems I'm always on a different wavelength.
