Maybe I'm an INFJ in disguise... **bursts into tears** Others' emotional baggage is not good... Do you find you're good at helping people see their problems? I'm told by a few friends I'm 'very wise', but I think it's just that I don't get emotinally involved in their problems, and I can sit...

I had something similar with my sister. She told me she was engaged to a guy she'd been dating for 3 months. (Her boss, no less). When asked if I was excited about the wedding, I told a few people that I was more concerned for my sister, While people could understand this, they seemed perplexed...

Yes, good post. I can also express myself logically in a somewhat deteached way. For example, I can tell you that I'm very upset about something, although it's unlikely I'll look that upset. A few people have commented to me before, 'Wow, you don't seem that upset about it". Like you, I will...

No, I don't think anyone who is close to me pressures me for an emotional repsonse. I'm sure they're all used to me by now, so they know they're really not going to get a lot unless they really upset me. Sometimes people who I don't know well will comment "You weren't excited about that?'. Often...

I think we wouldn't mind being either INFJ or ENTJ. The F so we actually understand people, or the E so we don't over-analyse and just do things. We couldn't be an S or P; that's just too flakey for us.

I like Doctor Who, and Tennant is my favourite Doctor. Elegant in its simplicity, really.

Like. We're not that bad once you get past the initial weirdness or coldness. I have a number of very good friends that are INFP/INFJ, and my sister is an INFP, too. I kinda feel that they 'get me' without me having to explain things.

Amen. That's me, except for acts of service; I prefer quality time with someone because I don't need others to do things for me. Now if you could just educate the rest of the female population, that would be appreciated.

First, admit to yourself you're jealous. It's okay to be jealous. Second, long distance and she's fucking someone else? Are you seriously considering a relationship with this person? Third, move on, and find a proper relationship with someone who wants to be with you. She's fucking with you.

I don't think INTJs are both cold on the inside and out. We definitely project an arrogance, an aloofness, or we have our 'thinking face' mistaken for anger, stress, or even confusion (happens to me a lot). We're often perceived as cold because of our facial expressions or general 'fuck off'...

You can easily notice the difference between these forums and INTJf: the colours, the smileys, the cartoonified ads, and the people are generally more friendly. Sometimes INTJf makes me realise how normal I am :-)

I'm on INTJf -- same pseudonym and avatar -- but I don't post a lot.

This is true. I believe it's fine for the rich to pay for better treatment. Why wouldn't they? If they've worked hard for their money, then they can spend it any way they please if it's not hurting anyone else. It's their money. I try not to hurt people, but yes, us INTJs are bad as hurting...

We can be very hurtful if we want to be, and if we know someone and how they tick, we know exactly what to say to hurt them. We don't have a lot of empathy, especially for those that vex us greatly. However, I can say that I really dislike to hurt people. I am also very polite (on a...

I have been told a few times I lack tact or have 'a certain naivety', most recently by my boss and ex-girlfriend. It's something, however, I have learnt over time, although it's definitely something I need to be thinking about in order to do. It certainly doesn't come naturally. Raw...
