What else would you add about Fi?
I'm an INFP and I was once described with the proverb "still waters run deep", so it was cool to see it in your video :)
"Still, waters run deep" , is it possible that what is true here is that, it is not necessarily about women, but about the Feminine, in which is self , subjective, Introversion and Feeling. Bc INFP is a very Feminine Personality type , and not just for women, for I am an INFP and a man.
depth of emotion is not only mellencolly, it can also be greathful or
loving,
I experience FI as my creative partner, someone who helps me make sense of the world and then encourages me to follow through on contributions that we want to make.
I find that - FI is my own subjective
paradigm. It’s like a volume of encyclopedias, that are my reference materials, in which my decisions are based upon; my learning experiences over my life, It causes me - stay-the-course as I navigate my relationships.
The dominant Fi is the reason I was able to narrow down my type to IxFP (after a lot of research lol). I don’t think I’ll ever be called a ‘rebel’ by anyone; it’s just I cannot go against my values and principles but I also tend to avoid conflicts. Btw thank you for this wonderful video. I am glad I found your channel through Instagram 😃❤️
Now, do you prefer to stay in the present, in the real tangible world and talk more about tangible things, explore the tangible world? (ISFP)
Or do you like to think and talk and explore ideas and concepts, and dream more than do, think about the past and future more than the present? (INFP)
I’ve seen a lot of channels, but you are humble and knowledgeable. I thoroughly enjoy listening and learning from you and your audience. ENFP - T
happy to know you enjoy my videos :)
It may be that Carl Jung noticed introverted feeling mostly in women because the German culture of his time did not allow men to develop their feeling function fully and naturally----a problem that is still with us today in the United States. I believe that I am an introverted feeling type but I did not benefit from the good qualities of this type for the first decades of my life---rather, I was simply confused about who I was and what I wanted. Now at last I am aware of the "underlying images" that guide my feeling; they are mostly religious images and the strong impressions that certain historical men and women have made upon me. These impressions are not something that can be easily described in intellectual terms---but they can be felt and they contribute to the development of a subjective value system.
My Fi really lightens up when you post another one of your excellent analyzes. Great Video!
Happy to know that!
With Fi as an INFP, you do you and I do mine kind of thinking. Accept the individuality of a person. When it comes to thinking, Fi can feel how people think by comparing to what people want based on human nature, like security, food, sex and all the mundane activities people do. This is the reason Fi gets bored easily, cause people are predictable.
And from my dominant Ni and auxiiliary Fe perspective, and more judgement/less perception than you INFPs, Fi looks like "Is that...asertiveness? Guess when I slice the cake I should count myself too!"
Cool. Like a true INFJ, you're very articulate and your ideas are concise and easy to understand, which I can appreciate because, as an Fi user, it takes a lot of effort to translate images into words. Like... a lot of effort.
Im planning on doing a video that is also based on Jungs description of Introverted Feeling - so thanks for the material.
Youve gained a sub:)
Thank you!!!
I learnt some things, cheers :) Might be even better if you would add text you are reading to the video as a slide, so we can read along too
I'd add that there is a bit of a contradiction, or difficulty, with Fi types and their involvement in social interactions.
Seeing as Fi naturally devalues the object, this can make whoever youre talking to feel superfluous and depreciated, in a sense. The contradiction is that Fi users are always ready to have a meaningful and harmonious discussion, but there is an implicit need for the object to "go its own moderate way", and anything deemed excessive, by the Fi user, will typically be "struck down with murderous coldness", as Jung puts it. So... I think this makes Fi users extremely difficult to "get along with" because they want harmony but are cursed, in a sense, to devalue and attach a negative judgement to whomever theyre interacting with, whether they express this exclusively to the other person or not.
C.S Joseph made the point that all Fi users are silently judging you... its true.
All-in-all, Jungs description of Fi isn't very flattering lol.
This is a very good way to put it!
Clearly explained. Thank you.
I love learning from your videos 🙏 calming voice too ✌
Having trouble trying to navigate my personality type almost feel like I can relate to every introverted type I'd really like to narrow this down
Look up the Function Stacks
That sounds like you're a Fe user haha.
Look up the cognitive functions it will help you.
@@nebulasofia FI is on my 3rd stack intj.. It's scary how accurate it is , I use so much my TE to get by ..i I've been neglecting my NI .. I pretty much only use ni to day dream and come up with plans ... That I deeply want to accomplish with my Fi , then use TE To execute everything with maximum efficiency in a world that in a world that requires me to be productive instead of instead of thinking
@@mraarontorres Not to ruin all your progress, but are you sure you're not intp? You sound like me (intp). INTJs *typically* are better at getting things done. I could spend my life thinking and not doing and I'd be happy. I like to make all kinds of plans, and not doing most of my plans is perfectly fine with me. I also like to be efficient because I want to spend as little time doing things as possible so I can get back to my brain world lol.
@@lishayost144 No you're right I definitely considered that.... But I only get things done , Because I have nobody to help me never had .... So so I literally have no choice ... I definitely daydream and in my mind so much that's what I do mostly on the weekends because the week days I have to go to training and work double shifts and , just be so far in my extra thinking , By the time the weekend comes on my off days... I just go to the park n rest n day dream...
Intp is too factual and organized with information
Everything I remember is stored in my mind as analogous concepts I make connect with everything
Intj type A and enigram type 5 is definitely me
I think it is true that there are more female Feelers than male ones. I think, though, that the percentages of male and females of certain types may vary. With regards to the ISFP, for example, those that I have encountered have seemingly been divided roughly evenly between the two genders. Now, it is possible that there are actually more female ISFPs than male ones as this has been based solely on my experience and I obviously haven't met all members of this type. My perspective is naturally going to be skewed simply by a combination of the social environments I happen to encounter as well as the inevitable mistypes that may occur as literally no one types everyone 100% perfectly.
I have a little doubt. I feel like I cannot live without the things that were so close to me emotionally, so I don't give those things to anyone else even if they ask for it. Is that a part of Fi?
Could be Fi, could also be Si
@@INFJinxed ohh ok, thanks a lot ma'am
I have never succumbed into peer pressure, I really felt bad for declining (very politely) but I just couldn’t do anything I didn’t want to. Is it an INxP thing? - INFP
Yes, although is more common on Fi doms, Ti doms can be convinced through appealing arguments. Fi on the other hand is harder to convince, specially not through peer pressure and or argumentation. In fact such things, specially when presented with apparent animosity or disregard for how you are feeling can only make your conviction stronger. But it might be easier if it comes from someone you value, but still no guarantee. Both Ti and Fi doms are introverted judging doms, so it all depends on the person.
Although inferior functions can come into play, Ti doms can succumb to what people want just to keep the peace (Fe inferior), but Fi doms can succumb to what people want to accomplish something or a goal (Te inferior).
I always say Fi people never do anything they don't want to do. Somehow they get around it. INTP has Fe, so there is still going to be an element of wanting to please people, even though it's 4th slot... like all personality types, each intp is different, so you will have some that are able to completely disregard their Fe, or you have people like me who are hyper aware of other people's feelings. I've never been one to give into peer pressure though.
@@lishayost144 I really can't tell if have Ti or Fi. Not really good with arithmetics but I can get carried a way trying to make an application or program work or not just to know I can do it.
I also don't give into peer pressure, a bit distrustful, cold on the outside but secretly want to please people. Oh the anxiety comes from when something goes wrong and I think people are out to get me. My anger is explosive🥱
@@darth_santos1137 Not everyone with Ti is good at math, at least, that's what I've heard some other INTPs. And an Fi person can be good at math. We don't always 100% fit the stereotype.
I would say both Ti and Fi people don't give in to peer pressure as much as Fe and Te people. Ti and Fi is more about personal identity, rather than fitting in.
I would say a big difference between Ti and Fi is when it comes to values and reasons. A Ti person will more easily be able to give you a reason why they like something whereas an Fi person could often be found saying, "I don't know, I just do." A Ti person will more often make decisions based on their reasoning, while an Fi person will make decisions based on their values. It will be harder for an Fi person to make a decision when it does not affect their values whatsoever. It will be harder for a Ti person to make a decision when the pros and cons and consequences of an action (or lack thereof) don't tip the scale strongly one way or the other. Of course, both have values and both use reasoning, but it's more about what seems to be the tipping factor.
@@darth_santos1137 I posted this comment in another video, but it might help a tad to know a bit more about the differences between Ti and Fi.
For those who aren't sure which one you are, learn about the cognitive functions.
INTP:
Introverted Thinking
Extraverted Intuition
Introverted Sensing
Extraverted Feeling
INFP:
Introverted Feeling
Extraverted Intuition
Introverted Sensing
Extraverted thinking.
INFPs and INTPs are similar in ways because the positions of their Ne and Si are the same.
So the differences are in the Ti/Fe for INTPs and Fi/Te for INFPs.
The reason you can oscillate between being a thinker and a feeler is because we all have a "thinking" function and a "feeling" function. Everyone has emotions and values. But INFPs are more in tune with their own emotions/values and INTPs are more affected by others' emotions/values (albeit awkwardly). INFPs form their logic and reason based on popular data from outside themselves (and this is not their strong suit, but it's also not impossible). INTPs tend to form their own subjective logical framework based on all the information they've obtained up to this point throughout their entire lives, along with their own personal experience and what makes the most sense to them based on all of that.
Our thinking and feeling functions are just the things that determine our decision making process. Do you make decisions based on what seems to be most logical/rational to you (Ti/INTP), or do you make decisions based on your personal values (Fi/INFP)? Also take into account that an INTP has extraverted feeling, so that will play a part in the decision making process, caring about how their decision might affect others (but this will be secondary to what is logical to them, and if they make their decision based solely on how it might make others feel but going completely against what they think is rational, it will not feel like a good decision and it will feel like a part of them is dying inside).
INFPs can also care about how their decisions might affect others, but that is only if one of their personal values is to care about how they affect others, which of course can often be the case... this is why it is so confusing. INFPs are probably trickier than INTPs because anyone can have any personal values. Someone with introverted feeling as their top function could have logic and rationality as one of their core values. But INFPs are much more likely to not do things they simply do not want to do.
As an INTP, I barely know what my likes and values are, but for the things I do like/value, I can give reasons for all of them. From my experience with INFPs, they tend to have very strong values, but when you ask why they have those values, it is often very vague, or when you ask why they like something, often it is just something along the lines of, "I don't know, I just do." This is generally speaking.
Just remember that just because you hate math and science, it doesn't mean you're not an INTP, and just because you like poetry/music, etc, it doesn't mean you're not an INTP. And vice versa. The personality types are based on how our brains work, which will play a role in what we like/dislike, but not 100%. Think about how your brain works. There is no "right" answer, and no cognitive function is better than another, just different. And no two people are exactly alike. You are you, no matter what your type is.
Well done
Thank you for another interesting video. 😁👍
Thank you! This helps a lot!
Happy to know that!

Giving reality to the underlying images---as, for example, a vivid sense of the moral force of an exemplar like Jesus Christ. A man whom I suspect was an introverted feeling type is Dietrich Bonhoeffer.
just for fun... the singer is isfp and the guitarist is infp (so both Fi dom) you can tell immediate on the singer cuz they look elvin and uhhhh the infps don't move right (I'm so mean to them....i always say they like cats...and that's where the goodness ends everything else bad :( ) so you can tell by figure ground they don't have stuff : czcams.com/video/LOyip4QicKs/video.html
