INFP x ESTJ Relationships
Following text pulled from Truity:
The two of you have some very fundamental differences in how you see things, and this can make getting along a challenge for both of you. That's not to say you shouldn't be friends; in fact, you might find that spending time with this person introduces you to ways of thinking that help you learn and grow. But this relationship will not be without its frustrations.
INFP: Fundamentally, [the INFP is] concerned with people, relationships, and values. [They] are a highly idealistic [people] and are always looking for opportunities to make the world a better place. [They] empathize easily with others, and [they] often feel their suffering acutely. But [they] never accept suffering as a fact of life; to [them], we all have a responsibility to change, improve, and become better than we are. [They] can easily imagine a better world, and [they] enthusiastically embrace change when you see it as a positive move forward.
ESTJ: [The ESTJ] puts a high value on tradition and stability. It's not that [they] don't care about people or making the world a better place, but [they] tend to be suspicious of change in general, and [they] rarely see it as the first solution. [They] tend to believe that the best way to serve people is by keeping things consistent and predictable, and [they] often find the [INFP’s] supposedly “innovative” ideas unnecessary and disruptive. At [their] worst together, they'll tend to view [the INFP] as flighty, unrealistic, and impractical. The [INFP will] see you as dull, stagnant, and unimaginative.
The same things that irritate you about one another are also opportunities for learning. Yes, [the INFP] has wonderful ideas, but they also truly can be a bit impractical. [The ESTJ] can help you think through the realities of [the INFP’s] ideas so that [the INFP is] better able to actually make them happen. And for [the INFP’s] part, they have an opportunity to get [the ESTJ] out of their rut and help them imagine possibilities for a better world. If [the INFP plays] it right, they may actually become enchanted with your creativity and wide-eyed idealism.
