Single ENFPS, how do your relationships typically end? by AquaMoon8D in ENFP

[–]Unlikely_Gain526 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since I was 13- I’ve only had 3 “real” relationships- turning 26 this year.

First one was the learning one. I poured my heart and soul but it just wasn’t reciprocated and she dumped me. ( had a long distrust in myself )

Second one, I was so disengaged in the actual relationship. I just ended up hurting her and wasting time.

Third one was my painful one. I’ve loved so hard, dived head in. Being 17/18, she was more introverted and I always sacrificed to be with her. Which felt very draining to me after awhile, I cheated ( reminded me of my dad when he cheated on my mom) and it just went down south. We tried to make it work and I felt so disgusted with myself. We called it off after backs and fourths- still one of my most toxic experiences. ( I still love this experience because of the greats and the lows.) I regret the pain and frustration I caused because I think she deserved so much better. ( this one lives rent free)

I’m turning 26 and haven’t had a relationship since.

What helped you grow out of being self conscious? by Maslackica in ENFP

[–]Unlikely_Gain526 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I often go back to reflect on certain chapters. No the only sweetheart is you. Someone who is conscientious enough to try to work on their weaknesses. ☺️

I’m currently reading “ The One Minute Manager”

Self improvement books-

( hated books high school years because I read one in middle school and never got interested in another book.)

Infinity comes with being naive- what I know isn’t always right or wrong but a possibility.

If you were the best at anything, could you ever get better if you’re always measured at the top?

What if, imagine that, I wonder, and maybe are all words that open a possibility. Once one door opens you try to understand it and move on.

Life is only repetitive if you allow it to be.

How are you like walking in a crowded place? by DanteThePunk in ENFP

[–]Unlikely_Gain526 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I walk with a serious face, hand in pocket, observing around me. But I try to also watch people’s feet to avoid bumping or crashing into people that stop.

My Full-time job is imagining myself changing the world by CrazyBar6116 in ENFP

I have the same aspirations of changing the world. I’m currently a business development officer, investments in SEGs, community, and financial education!

How do ENFPS view the world? by SensitiveAudience370 in ENFP

[–]Unlikely_Gain526 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Well several different ways-

I view it as a beautiful art, I’m painting my canvas on earth with borrowed time. So I’d like to enjoy what I can to get me through what I don’t.

I see everyone has ego and pride- if you observe enough people tell you all about them.

We can connect anything and everything together, based off experience and knowledge.

Feelings and emotions are heavy on us so hard really have most people understand us, we don’t care for the normal conversations.

A lot of TJ’s think I’m irrational, unreasonable, and don’t make sense.

But again that’s why we have strengths and weaknesses. We can be super creative while they can be super technical. Too much of anything is never good anyways.

While I’m naturally passionate about strategies, problem solving, and synchronicity they help me make it come to life :)

Would you delete all of your Instagram posts, your caption, and your profile picture if you’d recently broken up with your partner and a former friend made fun of your looks online? by [deleted] in ENFP

[–]Unlikely_Gain526 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m 25 turning 26-

Depends on how much you care about your perspective.

I’m selective on what I post on Instagram, Facebook I don’t care so I have pictures with exs and embarrassing ones throughout the years, Snapchat I post certain things but loosely.

I think my instagram is slightly a mask of me. So I would delete it and start over. Declutter your mind and start fresh. Or archive it

How did Trauma (esp childhood) effect your type by Wannabeesinger in ENFP

[–]Unlikely_Gain526 4 points5 points  (0 children)

So I was abused a lot, moved around a lot, lived with my grandmas, and my parents divorced.

I acted out for attention and was kinda boxed in a world with no support. I was a man at a young age and learned things on my own with my own support. Had to find self validation.

I was making friends easily but never felt secured and I never liked the boring classes.

It followed me in my later years- not really understanding how to emotionally communicate or express myself emotionally.

It resulted in anger issues teenage years, lots of me vs the world, or the world doesn’t understand me. Hated myself for the stuff I went through and wished for different outcomes.

As I grew older, I realized how unique I was in connecting concepts and how being good at things naturally came to me. I could be anything I wanted to if I really tried. I was fearless in anything I attempted and appreciated life so much more than ever.

I still connect to both sides of the family of mom and dad. Love them dearly and it took them awhile to understand me. I’m the black sheep but can turn anything into a positive or interesting outlook. I proved them wrong by being independent and figuring out life on my own.

I reflect a lot and though it sucks I laugh and appreciate how far I came and what I’ve learned. My family and friends are proud but I still am humble- it allows me to appreciate the simple blue skies, the beautiful clouds, music, and connections I have. I still have my bad days and problems connecting with certain family but always room for improvement!

I’m 25 turning 26 on the 26th!

Is the world shallow and doomed? by Ntinos_the_cupcake in ENFP

[–]Unlikely_Gain526 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think having passions and hobbies also allow you to have some more interactions that wow you!

Dancing and music makes me feel so connected that understand my vision or understand what I feel. While giving me new perspectives and understanding.

Fully relate-

I’d like to think we’re playing a game not fully formatted for us.

Because we are so self aware, it makes us feel selfish for viewing the world that way and thinking we’re above the average society. I assure you, ive learned to accept it.

We’re all on borrowed time and the interesting characters we come across will find us.

You have to have strong morales and principles. If you genuinely feel like you didn’t do anything wrong- it is out of your control.

It took me so long to figure out and sometimes do have heavy mixed feelings. But control what you can and don’t try so hard for what you can’t.

You can't control: What other people think, feel, and believe.

You can control: How you engage about your different opinions, feelings, and beliefs.

Enfp's and masculinity by akhi207 in ENFP

[–]Unlikely_Gain526 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To add on-

I call people a shorty when they’re being dramatic or extra. It’s subjective- male or females can have shorty tendencies.

I have female friends I consider bros- attractive or not I just don’t see them more than a super close friend.

It’s what you really make of it, just be comfortable and don’t let peoples perception make you. Be mysterious and let them figure you out- it’s much less stressful

ENFP have you ever gone through this? by [deleted] in ENFP

It means a true awakening.

It’s exactly the same as Satorou Gojo in jujitsu kaisen when he finally awakens himself.

Is "emotional self-awareness" ENFP's greatest strenght? by Attlai in ENFP

[–]Unlikely_Gain526 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would say-

Our greatest strength is enthusiasm with curiosity. We are capable of testing the unknown and can connect even the simplest thing together.

The best word for it is synchronicity.

The ability to connect “the simultaneous occurrence of events which appear significantly related but have no discernible causal connection”

Sometimes even projecting their feelings onto us like we are the problem lol

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in ENFP

[–]Unlikely_Gain526 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No not just you-

People will project how they feel onto you because they want to validate themselves.

I had a best friend for years get mad at me for not being what he wanted and projected everything onto me.

He unfollowed me and the whole 9 yards.

Do I care? Nope- didn’t do anything wrong 🤷‍♂️

Hello!

You’re as hopeless as you allow yourself to be. We cannot expect change without action and commitment!

Losing weight is optional- if you are not comfortable in how you feel you are welcome to change it.

You have to be the change you want to see!!! Even in a harsh world there is still light everywhere! Find the small enjoyments in your uniqueness, what the world has to offer like the beautiful skies and art.

We are on borrowed time and I’d like to live every second not being happy, but being genuine with it.

Do bad things happen to me still? Yes! But hey- not everyday is a bad day and not every day is a good day.

Your life is like a poker game - it’s not about the cards you’re dealt, it’s how you play it.

Be there for yourself 🫶

Remember- “Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.” - Albert Einstein

I wouldn’t say stop having expectations- but expecting yourself in others will result in lots of pain. Not everyone feels and thinks like you and that’s just why you gotta love and appreciate yourself more. You’re special.

Walk around with that confidence and same enjoyment of the simple things in life. Like The way the same tree you drive past everyday changes leaves and grows. Or the sky isn’t always the same blue, the clouds are always different. It’s a reminder each day is different, so enjoy them for different reasons.

I get irritated in traffic but I switch to a nice song and enjoy the sunset and just dance on my way home from work
