A few days ago I met someone when I joined one of my cliques. She was standing there, very silent and introvert. I made my rounds saying Hi to everybody and when I introduced myself to her, she had this look of amazement in her eyes while she was looking at me. It was as if she was thinking "Who is this guy? I haven't met anyone with this kind of aura yet". I immediately knew she was interested.
I also thought she was very pretty. But what's even better is that there was chemistry between us right from the start. We had absolutely no problem having a conversation, although she really seems to be an extreme introvert. The words just flowed between us. And it turns out she also graduated in the arts and the sciences (different subfields). When she told me that I thought this is just too good to be true: mutual attraction, same interests, similar academic paths, super chemistry.
Now oddly, I've been trying to type her. I don't do it out of a scheming motivation, but rather because I don't want this to fail and so I'd like to get every help there is. I know one shouldn't be too careful or too "thinking" in these matters, but I think that's a balance I can keep. So do you think she's an INFP or an INFJ? Which brings us to the old question of the differences between INFP and INFJ.
My first impressions of her: Very reserved, with a shyness which is not a weakness. She lacks the goofiness I see among other INFPs I know. Though on Facebook a lot of her photos show that playfulness. She definitely does not look hard on the outside, but rather fragile. She also couldn't resist glancing at me now and then. I, of course, sustained each of those eye contacts and faded out smoothly.
And what should I do? Should I be careful in my approach, patient and slow, or faster? Actually I think my first move (asking her for her Facebook contact) was already too fast. But the risk of losing contact with her was just too high.
