Choose your type, or another.
 
Signs Your'e A Real INFJ:

- Hilter was an INFJ, so if you're an INFJ, you're like Hitler.
- You are a complete weirdo, yet you're not even the rarest weirdo in the MBTI.
- At least INFPs are fun.
- You have a melt down if someone criticizes you.
- You have a meltdown if your perfect plans don't work out.
- You're a "know it all".
- You think you're a shaman, which sounds crazy.
- You're a stubborn perfectionist.
- You're a pseudo intellectual.
- At first your ideas sound deeply thought out and make sense, but then you fall off the deep end.
- You're like the incredible hulk when you get angry.
- You cut people out of your life and act unforgiving, while also claiming to be empathetic.
- You care about humanity, but hate people? What does that even mean?
- You have an inability to comprehend non-intuitive rules and laws, such as filling out paperwork correctly.
- You just know stuff and think people should trust you even though you can't explain anything about why you 'just know'.
- If someone else is crying you cry. If someone else is laughing, you laugh.
- You're a creep who claims you can actually feel other people's feelings. No, you're creepy. Stop it.
- You have no idea how you feel.
- You crave authenticity in others, but have an irresistible urge to go along with the crowd, which sounds inauthentic.
- Nobody can figure out who and what you really are. You're confusing, and you are always revealing another deep layer, which you present to people like you're giving them the Ark of the Covenant.
- You're quiet and awkward, but won't shut the hell up if you are really interested in a topic.
- Getting you to warm up is like trying to solve calculus problems, but once you're in love there is no getting rid of you.
- Life of the party one moment, hermit recluse who won't answer the phone the next.

12 signs you're a real... INTP:
  1. You refuse to watch your significant other's favorite movie, but you'll watch the documentary about your significant other's favorite movie.
  2. You pretend to take nothing seriously; meanwhile your mind is fucking Desert Storm, aka you're a lying SOB.
  3. You are too inept and indifferent to tell when you're going to piss someone off, but occasionally you just blow a gasket and everyone is all "wtf".
  4. You hate the idea of occupations.
  5. You can't help but fixate on the flaws in everything, except for freezer/stoner food, which is somehow perfect.
  6. You claim that you only possess your first three cognitive functions.
  7. So many trends and popular things bore you that people just assume you're an asshole (and you secretly believe you are).
  8. You think the term "sapiosexual" is stupid as fuck, but you clearly are one .
  9. You don't believe that "overanalyzing" is a thing until you've realized the entire world has moved on from whatever you were thinking about.
  10. Your strange blend of extremely low and high standards confuses pretty much everyone you know except for other INTPs, and then you're basically part of a cult.
  11. You visit personality forums for other Jungian types, only to alienate yourself by your irreverent, disharmonious presence.

INFP

  • Flighty
  • Remote/aloof
  • Spastic (think Kramer from Seinfeld)
  • Stupidly honest. Like really bad at just blurting the dumbest honest to God's truth that nobody needs or wants to hear.
  • I got 99 ideas but haven't actualized 1!
  • Simultaneously loves and loathes humanity
  • Capable of absorbing the feelings and internalizing the problems of others so acutely, the INFP is rendered useless in terms of offering solutions or support /David Attenborough narration

I can relate to all of these (I'm INFP).
 
Hahahahahaa! These are great!
@noisebloom
Surprisingly accurate. Hahahaha. It fits the INTPs I know, including my dad.

All the INFP lists are adorable.


@noisebloom - Shared this with an INTP friend who is not on the forum.

I Love it. That's perfect.
Every bullet point hit home.


I edited to leave out their personal examples.

Signs you're a real ENTP

  • You choose an unordered list as ordered lists feels like arbitrarily superimposing order where there is none. (Looking at you @noisebloom. :wink:)
  • You overthink everything.
  • You overthink your overthinking.
  • You use parentheses a lot to clarify your statements.
  • You feel left out when a thread mentions INFJs, INTPs and INFPs but not your type. At the same time you hate yourself for feeling left out. You would never admit that out loud. You retreat to sulk alone. Go away, pesky Fe.
  • You are very invested in your self-image of being a rational, knowledable, competent person.
  • You are full of self doubt.
  • You are secretly elitist.
  • You are allergic to stupid people.
  • You are very impatient.
  • You are curious, creative and openminded.
  • You are interested in nearly everything.
  • Your mind doesn't have an off-switch.
  • You are secretly very perverted.
  • You speak fluent sarcasm.
  • You are supposedly funny, but don't really see that in yourself.
  • You forget to eat, sleep, do the laundry and clean the house.
  • You can focus for hours... or not at all.
  • You care too much... or not at all.
  • You give 100%, or nothing.
  • Your motto to life is "If you want something done right, do it yourself".
  • That motto instantly makes you think of The Fifth Element (great movie, by the way) and Gary Oldman (great actor, by the way.)
  • You love humanity untill you interact with humans too much and then you hate people.
  • Cats. :hearteyecat:
  • INTPs. :hearteyes:
 
@Lady Jolanda

- You're an INFJ if you leave someone out and overthink about how leaving someone out could hurt their feelings. :(

:jumphug:

- You're an ENTP if you feel bad about making the kind INFJs feel bad about accidentally leaving you out.

Much of this is true for me, and potentially most INTPs, as well. I've bolded the only ones that are definitely not true for me.
