    I care about people so much that I resent them

    I've always been trying to stop feeling, and lately have been more accepting of letting my feelings run rampant. So true when you say that most all people aren't going to care as much as me about people and situations. Thinking about people and everyone around me is something that I do for fun...

    I really like your response. It's a real and rational response to my question, and I always appreciate people who think so rationally.

    I care about people so much that I resent them

    In the deep recesses of our minds. ;)

    I care about people so much that I resent them

    Thanks for the amazing replies! It's great to finally start understanding what's been happening inside my head all these years. I have been trying to incorporate more Ti into my life, especially realizing now just how much my feeling has been taking over my life. When I can start thinking...

    Which personality would you be for a day?

    ESTP. Switched functions, basically. I would love to experience Se as my dominant function, just so I could see what I'm really missing in the physical aspect of the world.

    Two sides of self-control

    It could be that you spend so much time exerting control in certain aspects of your life that you have no energy left to soft of "move on" from those things and branch out into the things you want to start doing. Maybe you are stuck in the same patterns of life, seeing the control as such a...

    I care about people so much that I resent them

    I recently had a sort of mental clarity that made me realize something really important: I love people.(not that I didn't before, I just didn't realize the intensity) If people would accept it (the certain few that I like, as INFJs are apt to pick those "special" few) I would kiss them everyday...

    I have a staring problem...

    This staring problem only happens when I am engaging one on one with someone. I look into their eyes the entire time they are talking, even if they look away. I just can't stop looking at their eyes while they talk to me, but as soon as it is my turn to talk, I notice that I start averting my...

    INFJ & ENFJ = the perfect friendship?

    I would totally agree with your description of ENFJs. A lot like us, they just love talking!

    Is the INFJ really real?

    I definitely just wanted some insight into what I was thinking. I don't think I am unique or have special abilities or anything, and I also believe that every single person is unique. Each person grew up seeing different things, doing different things and belonging to a different cultural...

    INFJ & ENFJ = the perfect friendship?

    Mine may have been too long, but you unnecessarily used scholarly words, where you could have easily made it simpler. Quite interesting...

    INFJ & ENFJ = the perfect friendship?

    My brother is an ENFP and he his the second person that I have the deepest connection with. I just love how outgoing he is and not afraid to say anything.

    INFJ & ENFJ = the perfect friendship?

    I am going to make this post short and simple, as I am asking a simple question. I have been best friends with an ENFJ for 7 years now. Over the years, I have become much more extroverted, and she much more introverted. It is almost as though we complement each other, like together we make a...

    The dark side of INFJ

    How would you get INFP from the short paragraph I wrote above?

    The dark side of INFJ

    Long story short, I just moved to Scotland about a week ago to study abroad for a semester. A little background: I've been typed as an INFJ ever since I first took the test in 9th grade. I always type INFJ, except for a few times I've gotten INFP. Anyways, on the 3rd or 4th day here, I...
