INFP @infp-feelings - Tumblr Blog

I’m an INFP but I’m not-

I’ve been seeing certain stereotypes being passed about the INFP, and I just want to explain and disprove some stuff

We don’t always feel stuff on a deeper level. Despite us being the queens and kings of introspection we can sometimes be a little ignorant about how WE feel. We do our best to understand others yet sometimes its incredibly difficult for us to understand ourselves. We end up over thinking our emotions making a big deal over nothing.

We don’t always believe in second chances. An INFP has most likely dealt with someone breaking their trust and it can sometimes be a little difficult for us to trust people completely.

We’re not all artists and writers. An INFP just wants to end suffering in the best way they can or do their best to help other people. This leads us to purse careers in science fields, counseling or psychology, humanitarian work and teaching.

We’re not emotionally weak. A general stereotype for INFP is that we’re giant cry babies. Yes, sometimes we feel things on a deeper level but we have learned to deal with our emotions due to years of being an INFP.

Hi Julia, I really enjoy your blog! I have one quick question; Do you feel it's an INFP thing to suddenly drop all communications with someone, without any particular reason? I.e. being bad at keeping in touch. I've been asking other INFPs, simply out of curiosity, and I was wondering what your opinion on the matter might be. Thanks for your time, hope your summer's been good to you. - HB

Dear HB!

That's an interesting question.. I'm not quite sure myself.Usually I don't want to let go of people but I've also experienced some situations where I was the one that wanted to let go. There was a girl I was friends with for three years in highschool and when I changed schools we both wanted to keep in touch but we just grew apart and after some time I told her that I didn't really have time anymore and that we no longer share the same interests etc.. But so far I think that was the only situation where I dropped the communication.So I guess it depends on the type of friendship or relationship that you have. INFPs probably hold on to people more often than other types, but that doesn't mean that they can't be the first to let go.

Thank you for question :) Enjoy your summer!

Yours, Julia

Would you say that and INFP (female) and an ISFP (male) would be compatible together?

I don't think there are rules when it comes to love and relationships. Both types may be introverted, feeling and perceiving but that doesn't mean that they are compatible. They both seem very similar but look: I found a VIDEO.

But love is the exception. That's why we sometimes don't understand why we love someone, even if we have nothing in common or if we feel awkward around them.

Hope this helped you a little.Yours, Julia

Thanks for your insight on INFPs and feedback. You made a good point about the perfectionism aspect and wanting to wait until everything is complete until voicing an opinion. It didn't really occur to me because I tend to think aloud to brainstorm even if the idea is faulty/incomplete (Te dominants learn through conflict rather than avoiding it), which is something I'll need to remember isn't always the case for others next time.

Thank you for the kind feedback. I'm glad I could help you a bit. Have a nice day and good luck with all your future projects :)Julia

I have a friend who is an INFP and it seems that she has difficulty asking and providing feedback on certain things. As a Te dominant, I find this a bit frustrating especially when we're working on projects together and my goal is to improve things. Is it fear? Or maybe INFPs are so introverted it doesn't occur to them to say things out loud? Is there a way to get her to be more forthcoming in this respect?

Dear Anon,

I don't think that she is too introverted. But some people have difficulties giving their friends a full feedback with pros AND cons. It's a very common thing around INFPs to avoid conflict. We want to keep harmony in a friendship.

But when it comes to telling a friend EXACTLY what you think about their ideas/concepts/projects, INFPs will mostly tell the whole truth. As an INFP I want to be honest when I give feedback. Even if that means that I may hurt someone.

Maybe she doesn't ask for feedback, because she's not 100% satisfied with her own concepts. INFPs are perfectionists. So maybe she needs more time to work on her own, till she's ready to show it to other people.

The best solution for you would be to talk to her.Tell her that you'd like her to say things out loud and that you'd appreciate her opinion on your ideas too.

Yours, Julia
