    INFP with an INFP boyfriend here. We haven’t been dating too long. We started out seeing each other casually, but then a few months in realized that our chemistry/emotional connection was just so intense we wanted to be together. We were spending entire weekends together just enjoying each other’s company. The feeling “seen” thing is absolutely true. I’ve never felt so seen and loved and admired and understood before. Don’t know where this relationship will take us, but I’m just happy to have experienced it.

    I loved this, it all really rang true to me. I was thinking about how, when I was young, I found very conflicted with other INFPs, and as I got older, I’d feel very strange if I was shown any love by them. It was uncomfortable because I didn’t know how to respond to it - it felt like, in order to receive it, it was like being naked and exposed in a way? I think as I’ve gotten older I’ve slowly realised the great benefit of the INFP relationships, how it inspires me to be more ‘myself’...and the wonderful feeling of safety and loyalty that the INFP-INFP relationship can bring with it (I think anyway).

    I picture a lot of nightime conversations on the sofa, a lot of netflix, a lot of walks in nature, a lot of genuine understanding and kindness. Not a lot of pushing each other towards confronting your fears though, not a lot of valuing goals and material progress in life in general but rather creating a bubble of comfort that is just too comfortable to want to get out of even if sometimes in life you have to. Amazing for long lasting friendships. For romance or raising children having a family etc I dont know...Same strengths and weaknesses leaves an unbalanced relation in the long term. Great for friendship, for romance...maybe, if one works hard for growth and dares to develop the weaker functions.

    Sweets, glitters and love in our little comfy bubble.
    The picture i have when it comes to describe my relationship with my boyfriend. We are both INFPs, and when i heard about the competeting love my ears twitched a bit. This is only my experience, i don't say it has to be like that for everyone.
    Sweet words and love expression more and more shown, and yes sometimes it can feel like a dream, isn't forced at all. We don't want to show we love the other more than he/she (in his case) does. It's just being true to ourselves and our feelings more and more, without feeling ashamed. I'm curious to know how other INFP-INFP live with that feeling of infinite love ♥ (it sounds like a fairy tale it's not always like that)
    The roleplay part ! We are lucky, because we can switch really easily and complete each other with what we need. Too well, i have to say. It's so conforting, comfy, this feeling to be home, that we are dependent to each other. Always thinking about the other, worrying, searching ways to make him/her happier, it's not a choice, not for us. This is the only negative part of our unhealthy relationship. But the worse, ian tell you it's the best too, because we don't mind being this "always too much", and it's getting better by itself with time ♥ ♥ ♥
    You don't have to fix everything going wrong in your realtionship, love needs time, just like INFPs ♥

    To find someone who understands the horrific beautiful cyclical sacrifice. To know that shared breath is silent poetry.
    To break, in gratitude, waterfall tears at loss, knowing… what once was held, now taken, gives one the power to look into the abyss and see how endlessly deep their love can be.
    How noble it is to take up the price, to love with knowledge of pain, to know the world with a bravery and truth. this soul I seek to know deeply.

    We are 2 INFPs who just got together, and your analysis is really amazing! It's a very intense and loving start to all this, I'm hoping tho we don't chill out to oblivion!! We got to have some focus in this life, but it's easy to fall into the big lovey hole together, it's so cosy there!!! Thanks so much xxx

    The imposter syndrome described me really well when I’ve been in relationships, especially close ones with very empathetic people (especially extraverts). I never stopped to think about it, but it’s so true! And I’ve also struggled with feeling ingenuine and questioning if I deserve love / kindness, almost ocd about it! I don’t always feel that way, but for sure at times it’s a struggle. Thanks for sharing this, I’ll have to keep your advice in mind whenever I get stuck in one of those ruts again 😀 I’m going to listen again!

    I think it can work. My bff was an infp and my brother is too. We understand each other perfectly, which for me personally, outways the negatives of our friendships such as the fact that we argue due to each having strong opinions for example. But the degree of understanding makes it worth it 🌸

      @@ledzia6622 If I get right what you want to say, I had this with an istp. "Logic prevails". Basic difference, one of those that led to the break-up maybe. I just want to say to you, in a relationship there should always be a try to understand and be understood. In my opinion, you should address that to him the sooner you get the chance. Just, do not treat yourself as if you're in the wrong for how you FEEL. We can be wrong about a bunch of things, but not about the way we feel. I hope that either it's not that big an issue for you or that it will be worked out the sooner for the better. Take care!!

    I have an infp cousin sister. We both love each other very much. She is very much like me although she is six years older than me, we don't really feel the age gap. We both share love for art and we both are curious about the world. Nowdays we don't see each other often. We see each other once a year. As she is busy in university and I am in high school. But whenever we do, we dedicate our time to each other,talk a lot, connect with each other and we both cry when it's time for us to part again. I feel most comfortable with her. I think so I would love to date an infp because I will able to form strong bond with them

Im not a toxic person in my personality type. And i remember before he told me that he see in me that im a balance type of person.
    He is the 1st infp I've known.
