INFJs are known to be “the empath”.

QUIZ: AM I AN EMPATH? Ask yourself:

1. Have I been labeled as “too emotional” or overly sensitive?

2. If a friend is distraught, do I start feeling it too?

3. Are my feelings easily hurt?

4. Am I emotionally drained by crowds, require time alone to revive?

5. Do my nerves get jarred by noise, smells, or excessive talk?

6. Do I prefer taking my own car places so that I can leave when I please?

An empath is a person who absorbs the emotions of others like a sponge and experiences these emotions as their own. While empaths are warm, intuitive, and compassionate people, their high level of sensitivity makes them prone to experiencing issues such as anxiety, depression, and crippling physical illnesses.

Empaths are highly sensitive, finely tuned instruments when it comes to emotions. They feel everything, sometimes to an extreme, and are less apt to intellectualize feelings. Intuition is the filter through which they experience the world. Empaths are naturally giving, spiritually attuned, and good listeners. If you want heart, empaths have got it. Through thick and thin, they’re there for you, world-class nurturers.

The trademark of empaths is that they know where you’re coming from. Some can do this without taking on people’s feelings. However, for better or worse, others, like myself and many of my patients, can become angst-sucking sponges. This often overrides the sublime capacity to absorb positive emotions and all that is beautiful.

“One of the best feelings is finding someone who really gets you. A person who lets you be vulnerable and honest. The kind of person who encourages you to push past your flaws because they accept you as you are. Someone who never tells you that you’re too much of this and too little of that. Because to them you’re just enough of everything they love.”

— Sylvester McNutt

“I am homesick for a place I am not sure even exists. One where my heart is full. My body loved. And my soul understood.”

If you and your partner share different love languages - that’s okay. People will showcase their love in their own ways. The hard part comes when people expect to feel love in their own ways without seeing past what their partner may understand. For example, there are five love languages - 1) words of affirmation 2) acts of service 3) receiving gifts 4) quality time and 5) physical touch. Generally, people belong to two of the above categories. Personally, my love languages are words of affirmation and quality time. I’ve had partners who did not show their love through either of these. Instead, they’d shower me with gifts - while I recognized that these acts were sweet, they didn’t make me feel loved. Instead, I looked for sentimental value. I looked for words of affirmation in the form of letters or post-its. I looked for quality time where I felt that they took the time. And maybe I enjoyed the smaller gestures like holding my hand in a crowded room or just standing by my side on days I didn’t feel as social as the situation required me to be. I searched for that connected intuition. But this doesn’t make other methods of showing any more or less valuable. And I’m still trying to grasp that myself. Where I tend to write notes where I feel loved and loving, they may not. Where I value language greatly in a literal sense, my partner may prefer silence. The important thing is to recognize and sacrifice where you can, implement where you can and accept where you also can.

Eventually you hit that point where you’re no longer interested in convincing people that how you feel and who you are is valid and decide that as long as you know your truth and what works for you, that’s what matters.

[naramdil]

you have this idea in your head that the only time you’re worthy of being loved is when you’re at your best. you’re still worthy of being loved when you’re at your lowest. you’re still worthy of being loved when you don’t want to go on anymore. you are still worthy of being loved even when you don’t love yourself. you are a human and therefore always worthy of being loved and don’t you fool yourself into thinking otherwise.
