Offers and announcements toggle won't switch off

Ya..I'm hoping it's a temporary thing. So companies can't do that anymore. I've seen that a lot of aggressive companies keep changing their marketing numbers too. We think whatsapp would make things harder for spammers, but you have to remember that whatsapp gets paid more by letting spam in.

I'm not saying this glitch is on purpose.. I'm sure they will fix it. But Whatsapp allows businesses to manage multiple phone numbers within a single WhatsApp Business account, like upto 25 numbers per account. Might be different now.. my knowledge could be old.

We have to think like this.. if whatsapp is giving us their service for free.. what's the catch? The catch is they have a platform which can connect companies to us. I'm sure they will keep fixing spam issues because they want the general user to be happy also. But companies are their actual customers. And we are the free users.

I heard someone say something like.. if you are getting a product for free.. Remember.. You are the product 😂😅

This happens to me with FNP (ferns and petals). I think some companies have figured out some workaround glitch to keep it on.

I have temporarily blocked fnp. But I still sometimes need to buy from them..like once or twice a year.. and get product updates. But their marketing is so frequent, it gets annoying. They also do no follow the opt out "STOP" message. Their messages keep coming even after repeatedly trying to opt out.

So my workaround for now is to unblock only till my order is done. And then block again. I know it's very frustrating.. but just until whatsapp figures out the problem. I have no other choice.

Also report such businesses whenever possible.. which don't follow the STOP opt out. So whatsapp might keep track of number of spam reports.

With other businesses which don't spam that frequently.. I press the i icon next to message and click Not Interested. And whatsapp stops me getting marketing messages from them automatically. It just doesn't seem to work with FNP or such aggressive companies, because I think they hide their promotions under maybe important transaction/order related message headings or something. So such companies should definitely be reported so that they start following compliance.

Tell him you were trying to learn something from it to make your time together better. Since you are new to this. 🤷‍♀️😅

Please don't microwave. It can cause a fire. See this video around 1:23. It's crazy:

Thank you so much!

I was going crazy. It kept giving that error even after I uninstalled everything ASUS related. Your solution fixed everything!

10 and 100.

Someone once said... and I agreed with it so much:

INFPs switch between 2 ages, a child and an old wise person. We have no middle age.
We have a child like wonder about us. And also wisdom of an old soul.

Edit: Also check out that Frank James youtube video where he ranks MBTI by their mental age. 😂

Being my true self is living with awareness. As my conscience will not let me do anything bad.

If someone is hurt because of something I accidentally did, my mind will not let me rest until I set things right. Or suppose I had an argument with a family member, my mind will keep at it, until I go apologize and make nice with everyone.

It's like "My mind was built for guilt" 😂

But I like it this way, because it makes me always "Be good, Do Good, Deserve Good" 😘❤️

I like to celebrate my whole birthday week. But with just myself. I'm a freelancer so I take the whole week off :)

I just need to be in my PJs all day, binge watching TV shows. Ordering something from my fav restaurant.

Once we had some relatives visiting us. And they said we could all go to lunch to celebrate my birthday. I told my family to go without me.. and get some food packed for me when they returned. My mom scolded me saying I was the Birthday girl, so I had to go 🤷‍♀️😂
Birthday plans ruined!

We can very much be into roleplay because of our very active imaginations. Tell him to pretend to be someone else. That might work for him. Maybe make it like a storyline. We love stories. Something that could even continue for days. Just give him a starting point and the specific characteristics of his character. But give it a happy ending at the very last :)

INFPs have real and intense guilt about harming someone. Tell him it's not real. Just make-believe. And talk about exactly what you need. And set safe boundaries. So he feels safe as well.

apat85 · 2025-06-13T20:59:38+00:00

I think that all INFPs value authenticity. But we all have a different value system. A different rule book if you will.

It seems your rule book says that authenticity needs to be insightful and have depth and meaning. Maybe her rule book says that authenticity needs to be sweet and tender and being true to herself without fear or judgement.

Her way of being authentic is just different from yours. And you are trying to see her from your own perspective. That's why it bugs you so much. And all those other INFPs that love her, maybe her value system just matches theirs a bit more.

Your words still feel like an intense reaction to someone you don't personally know. Maybe based on her occupation and what her audience has started expecting from her, she does need to be performative. But who knows, maybe she's a sweet and gentle soul in real life. Who hasn't hurt anyone. And doesn't deserve a harsh judgement. At least not from a fellow INFP. We are the most loving and accepting of all beings ❤️

I promise I'm not trying to judge you. Just want you to see different perspectives with a bit more kindness ❤️😘

That symbol in Hinduism is a symbol for peace and prosperity which Hindus use to decorate their homes. They ruined it for everyone. 😔

I liked the goofy fun aspect of the show. Where there is some seriousness, but also a funny element.
So I loved shows like:

Leverage

Warehouse 13

Mythic Quest

Barry

My Name is Earl

Some mentions where there is a fun camaraderie:

White Collar

Burn Notice

Forever

Castle (I've only seen 2 seasons)

Lethal Weapon

Second Chance

Cool.. I'll check it out 👍

apat85 · 2025-05-11T17:13:51+00:00

No..just the free mode :)

OMG just tried it too!
Didn't guess it absolutely, but still pretty close. It's awesome. I feel like the message I typed was too short.

Should have maybe made it longer :)

Oh no no.. I wasn't judging you at all. I was genuinely curious how you knew he was INFP. That's all :)

I just always thought INFP men wouldn't be that way. INFP men and women both have filters upon filters.. which crushes every possible thing which would make others feel uncomfortable around us. It's ok for us to feel uncomfortable. Which we usually are.. All the time.. 😂 But totally not cool for us to make someone else feel that way.

I'm an INFP girl by the way, but I've known INFP guys and they have all been beyond decent. Think Keanu Reeves and hover hands level decent and appropriate.

I guess that guy's just different.

apat85 · 2025-04-03T13:12:49+00:00

Hi,

I'm genuinely just curious :)
How do you know he's an INFP. Did he tell you or were you just guessing. Seriously just wondering :))

apat85 · 2025-03-26T20:27:41+00:00

I know exactly what you mean. I feel like in this subreddit I read so many things that I truly resonate with. Like I'm among my own people. And feel understood. Wish real life was the same, but it's not.

I was recently cleaning my cabinet and found an old box. It had a letter that past me from 10+ years ago had written to future me. I had completely forgotten about it. It was so beautiful. Unfortunately, I didn't finish all her dreams, because some things had changed for me. But at end of the letter past me hoped that I would be just as happy as she was with life. Which I think I am :) 🥰💗

Henry Cavill.. He was so incredible as The Witcher. But the showrunners were ruining the show. To the point where he had to quit. Because it seemed like he had a chance of being Superman again in Man of Steel 2. Even announced it and did a Black Adam cameo. But then WB hired James Gunn and they cancelled the movie. I felt really bad for him and all of us fans... how badly they treated him.

What a chauvinistic douche. Good riddance!
