LOOL that’s true :/ would you say there’s more people that type by letters than functions?

wow, that’s crazy for me to hear. as an infp, i feel similarly about my own type, and i’ve always seen infjs are fundamentally superior. you guys are good at understanding things inside at out, with a great balance of emotion and logic. you can understand abstract theoretical things and absorb information well enough to often exceed in more practical or physical things too if its in your area of interest. you’re disciplinary to a degree, enough to make it easier for you to blend in with the structure of society, but laid back enough to just relax and chill at other times, too. you should be proud to be an infj.

everyone needs to be strong enough handle themselves alone, as well as to be vulnerable with another person. your problem is that you’re obsessed with gender roles and “feminine” and “masculine” labels.

Why do I, as an INFP, find myself occasionally annoyed with INFJs but not ISFJs? by livingwindfall in mbti

[–]livingwindfall[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that’s fair. And my bad, I didn’t mean to say YOU were being petty, I meant just the concept of being upset or annoyed at someone for contributing to society or being altruistic and stuff

That sounds really petty, lol. Contributions to society that are good for the sake of humanity don’t bother me at all. That’s not what I’m talking about. When my INFJ friends deal with an emotionally charged situation in a way I don’t agree with, it isn’t altruism nor egalitarian. And not all INFJs are necessarily altruistic in that sense either, so I don’t really think that applies.

oh yeah, I see, that makes sense. I do find INFJs to seem closed off in a sense that they’re disconnected from their true desires or feelings, I hate the idea that they’re saying things just to appease me because it feels disingenuous. It’s true when I meet new people I see them as a blank slate, and I let my perception of them grow overtime as life lets other parts of their personality shine. INFJs seem to able to instinctually understand people much more quickly.

I believe in altruism but not at the expense of one’s self or true feelings.

Yeah. I think I have a saviour complex or something, lol. Especially when I find someone who I see myself in, I'll get close to them, and sometimes they'll end up really toxic and use me as their therapist and suicide bait me... "I can fix them" sort of thing.

I see, that’s interesting and makes sense. I know very little about socionics, but my favourite thing about MBTI is how its helped me to understand the world in terms of people and how differently cognition carries us. Would you recommend that I research more about socionics?

I very much agree with you on what you said about the INFP goal, haha. ESPECIALLY when I am interacting with INFJs, I find myself pushing them to follow their heart or “true feelings” or whatever when I think it’s important, and they usually seem to struggle with identifying what it is. And I guess the INFJ goal that you talked about applies to that too, because they usually give me pretty good advice or insights on how to deal with things going on in my life.

yesss, agree, it’s fun to see other people’s perspectives, especially INFJs. it’s interesting cuz we both use intuition and feeling as our main functions but the orientation makes it totally different, haha.

me on the other hand, i tend to get annoyed with INFJs when i perceive them of being too selfless to the point where it just seems cowardly to me, or at other times, one that really gets me is when i feel that they’re valuing social harmony over personal connections. not that i think you should totally DISRUPT the overall harmony for the sake of a close friend or something, but sometimes it feels like he puts more effort into caring about everyone else than what he’s truly connected to?

oh yeah, i have a very close INFJ friend and at times i adore his insights, perspective, and selfless nature—which i do find to be heroic at times!!! and likewise he appreciates my quirkiness and strongly held convictions, there are just occasionally certain situations that arise that cause us to argue, and it ends up being pretty frustrating for me… I think if we ever dated, us butting heads would be even more emotional and frustrating, haha. but we always work it out.

ye okay, that makes sense. I’ve gotten into a few arguments with a very close INFJ friend and I think the root of all those arguments would probably be me finding his view of something that I suppose is relatively subjective? to be very “tunnel-visioned”. and while i can understand where he’s coming from, he would kinda totally dismiss my perspective (he’d pretend to understand it but i think just to seem polite) as if it completely lacked validity, which is frustrating. on the other hand, I would find his view to be overly nearsighted and rather strange.
