I have a question in my quest to understand all I can about personality types, and my "INFJ"ness. I have had a very special woman come back into my life recently from my distant past (22 years ago). Since typing and analyzing those close to me is quickly becoming my latest obsession, I have a type-relationship question for you all.
I (obviously) am an INFJ, and am with an ISFJ. It is comfortable, but not always that exciting, or fulfilling. From what I have read, this is supposed to be a fairly good (although not outstanding) match. We don't have that day-to-day closeness I really desire. She gets to caught up in things and retreats inside.
The one from the past is an ENFP, I am pretty sure (small chance she is ENFJ). The type match for INFJ/ENFP is a bit confusing. I have read some material that says this is not a good match (the majority), and some material that says it is (the minority).
The minority material talks about how having opposite inclinations for our dominant and secondary functions is a good thing: My Intraverted Intuition / Her Extraverted Intuition. My Extraverted Feeling / Her Intraverted Feeling.
What are your opinions on INFJ relations with ISFJ and ENFP types? Are there any of you out there that are in either of these type relationships?
