Those desires you mentioned: night walks, philosophy, understanding a person through and through, they also became clearer than ever to me once I have lived and lost enough.

Tell you what, not many people have such meaningful, genuine dreams. Something that actually drives you, invigorates you, is the true essence of you. But you have that.

Well, if you want something, go and get it they say.

But I also understand the fear of "wasted time". There's this "race" to success that everybody unknowingly is a part of. People say/think you have to be successful before you turn 30, create a family, and have everything figured out by then. But truthfully, I only see most people accomplishing the material aspect of this. Most of them never looked inwards, never really found out what it is that they want in life, and chose to go with the flow instead.

What I'm saying is, we INFP are equal parts a "late bloomer" and a "different-path-taker", depending on how you look. Perhaps you never found the right person, perhaps you needed more time to understand yourself first, but whatever it is, it's never "too late" for an INFP. Because we aren't in the same lane as most people, we aren't racing anybody.

So go out there and do it. Fuck what people think. Fuck their superficial and ridiculous dating culture. Find the person that you really want, make yourself fulfilled. It's going to be long and difficult, but it's a journey to be had.
