      Long before I knew my type, I liked the fact that I am somewhat different and original. Although it often came with many problems, I wouldn't change it. I always thought - better that some people don't get me and my values than go against my values and feel bad about it just because someone failed to understand the bigger picture. My values are my values and if you don't like it, you know where the backside of the door is.

I came to know people get mistyped as INFJ on that site hence proceeded doing tests on other sites too, I keep getting INFJ, INFP or INTJ.

    It's not that I feel like I don't know who I am, it's just that sometimes I feel like a walking contradiction, and the contradictions all make sense in the context they are expressed in. Now, the fakeness can be real. Often I pretend to care when I just don't give a shit. However, if I somehow make a personal connection with someone, I care too much. There's the walking contradiction again. Damnit.

    I really think we should say “the least common personality type,” because soooo many people in online groups latch on to the word RARE.

    I've taken the MBTI test so many times and I get both INFJ INTJ and thats because I believe that its important to understand when you need to think logically and when feeling is better. Because sometimes emotion can only get in the way of making a decision. On the other hand it can also be one sided if you only think logically. And I need to have both sides in order to make a decision that I can be sure that I am making the right decision.

      I do agree with you that sometimes when making decisions, one has to figure out the best approach. Sometimes T decisions will not work for F problems. If someone you love hurt you deeply, all the rationality in the world won't help fix it. You need either an apology or an infj door slam to fix it imho. I hate when T say, just get over it. Or you're too sensative. Try a little tenderness and sympathy. When F is hurting, "you're too sensative", just makes you sound like an A hole.

      For me it's like - every personality type is beautiful in it's own way. Imagine if everyone in the world had the same personality type...chaos, mankind today would literally cease to exist. Every personality type has something incredibly valuable to offer the world. Each comes with a slightly different way of learning new information, seeing the world, making decisions, and interacting with others. And that means that we each have the potential to positively impact the world in different ways.

    The, "Who am I...really?" Question can be answered in part by asking which types of friends do you enjoy hanging out with the most. It can better be answered by periodically isolating yourself for a few days or weeks and finding out what you do for fun on your own, instead of being influenced by what everyone else enjoys. What types of books do you pick out for yourself? What movies/CZcams videos do you watch? What music do you listen to? What do you think about? The hard thing is that while I'm drained so darn quick (like two hours is plenty guys, no we really don't need to find another activity to do) I'm also highly social. Can any other INFJs tell me if they're also constantly torn between, "I wanna hang out with my favorite people all the time!" And, "Wow I'm so tired. Where's the bed??"

    Another thing I guess that goes along with the over planning is basically because we don't like to be caught off guard because it leads to panic.
    Like being thrust into a new physical environment or meeting a new group of people or trying a new activity you've never done often doesn't seem like "an exciting new adventure" but rather anxiety and panic at not knowing what to do and how to act but if you had planned it then maybe you would.

    The making examples thing made me laugh, so true! And making predictions. I remember clearly sitting with my friends in our 20s and telling them how their lives were going to turn out and they totally believed it, and I was so confident. It was kind of weird. But it all more or less came true. When I reflect on that now I was just intuitively playing out what was already going on in their lives, I wasn’t fortune telling, my predictions ended when there was no more current information to go off or when we started a new phase of life like marriage or parenthood and I didn’t have intuitive knowledge in that area yet.

      I did this all the time and I still do. But somehow I learned to put myself first (at least in some situations) and it gets easier with time. Nevertheless whenever I do it I am still wondering how other people feel about it. I guess you can never shut it off completely just learn to live with it (which is totally fine)

      Very true! I am glad my parents and friends listen to me ramble on about weird things I heard in a youtube video. It is also weird being the introvert in class raising your hand to input your "connection trees" of what y'all just learned just to get validation that you actually are learning the right thing. Please tell me this comment makes sense.

    We really are bad at giving examples, huh? A while ago I was talking to my friend about some stuff I was going through emotionally. After I realised I was unloading a bunch of abstract crap on her, I said "i can give you an example if you're confused". And she said "yes please". And it took me so long to find a real life situation to apply to what I had been talking about... I even got confused just thinking about it.

      aaand yeah of course i got misdiagnosed. like twice already i'm not even surprised at this point

    As INFJ i actually love that I'm the rarest of the types, and I make sure everyone who don't even know about MbTi knows I'm the rarest 🤣. But it's really hard to make connections because I overthink about what anyone would think of me and try my best to change my personality based on their perspective, then get depressed for acting like someone I'm not. It's a slippery slope

      @@brainlet99 Yes but that's the thing: controlling the energy and chaos. My girlfriend has ADHD and is ESFP. I myself am an INFJ and our differences often make it difficult since our brains are wired differently which results in me thinking everything through while she barely does so. This usually causes me to have to 'keep her in line' which can be annoying as hell. However due to our differences we do complement eachother which is important to me since I really want to focus on being a balanced person.

      Being an INFJ with ADHD,OCD,dyslexia and having Aspergers is a shit show for myself! Every one of them want to put in their 2 cents on every situation! Overthinking is an understatement! Door mat? More like an oriental rug for people! My house is sparkling and extremely inviting though! I have nothing because I give everything away including all of my time! Well, I used to but now I've become even more introverted and now that I'm older my intuition is off the charts and so many people can't stand my personality,I see in them that it's nothing but jealousy though and that makes me enjoy my alone time even more!! I literally feel and see either good or evil ooze out of people!! I read people thoughts before they even have them. My resting bitch face doesn't change from what it is most of the time. People think I always look mad but that rarely happens. I'm so glad to finally know that I am not alone in this universe!! I just wish I could meet more people like me, even one person like me but since there's actually less than 1.5% of us in the world and I haven't met one other infj in 40 years, I doubt I will but it would be a dream come true to finally have someone that shares the same thoughrs,feelings, wants&needs without having to be a chameleon, bored or disgusted by narcissistic egotistical people that suck my energy and then up that use&abuse me then leave me for dead, honestly hoping for that to happen without a care in the world or for the world. The world is run by a bunch of narcissists but through the ascension process, the infjs are Rising Up,realizing our true potential and purpose and will take over the wrongfully placed power,turn it around and make this world a much better place! That's why we are here! We are going to save humanity as a whole! What you think becomes reality! Stay positive, make friends with your intuition and learn to sharpen it like a knife and beware the evilness that will try to destroy you! Facts! Peace,love and power to the people! Shine on INFJ's, angels,watchers, starseeds,healers,empaths, good people! Peace on earth and good will to men is here and now! Shine bright superstars, shine bright! 😇🙏
