I Am An Infp

It really did. I was always so conflicted inside about myself. My parents pushed me to be on stage a lot as a kid and teenager because I am musically gifted/inclined. They, like most people, assume that if you can sing and play an...

The internal struggle to get things right seems to bump into others. Part of that struggle to find clarity of thought, requires a selfish pursuit of one's one values. Values, both esoteric and mundane, draw the person one way or another...

I am an INFP in college, and definitely feel like an outsider as many other people on this website have said. When it comes to my confidence level, I feel very confident in who I am. I love me, I love the fact that I follow my heart...

Has anyone else ever walked in the rain--not a hard rain, but a mix between a drizzle and a mist and regular rain--and just...walked? In the rain?
Look up at the sky.
Feel the rain on your face...
A thousand miniature tingles on your...

The Idealist

As an INFP, your primary mode of living is focused internally, where you deal with things according to how you feel about them, or how they fit into your personal value system. Your secondary mode is external, where you...

to see your self laid out there in words...

creative, smart, idealist, loner, attracted to sad things, disorganized, avoidant, can be overwhelmed by unpleasant feelings, prone to quitting, prone to feelings of loneliness, ambivalent...

I certainly experience many of the same struggles that you all do as an INFP. Most jobs are laughably unfit for my personality; I'm not much good for anything except lying out in the grass looking at the clouds and thinking deep...

I feel a lot. I would say that I have a strong sense of empathy. I can feel people's emotions so much that it sometimes troubles me. It feels like I know who they are and I understand them and I get jealous because I can see them so...

You know what's funny? As much of Idealists as INFPs can be, it seems to me as if we represent the ideal Human for the rest of the world.

Flawed and definitely not perfect, but willing to change the world and to do some great things...

I have read many of the groups stories . I did not realize that I may be a INFP. I have never heard the term. All the stories I have read on hear floored me ! I relate to almost all of them. I feel much the same way . I Never knew there...

I just want to be.

Be me. Be someone else. Be left alone. Be home. Be gone. Be happy. Be selfish. Be caring. And uncaring. Be with. And without. Be everything I am.

All at once.

I am all without and so little with. Or perhaps I am...

It really helped me understand who I want to be, instead of the INTJ-ish person I was pretending to be :D 

Imposter. That is the best way to describe how I have felt for most of my life. I have always dreamed big, and over the past few years the world had really succeeded in making me feel immature, unrealistic, and childish for my dreams...

I've always been different, and I never knew why... Until I found out I was an INFP (I like describing myself as a 'Dreamer' type). This is very much what describes me. Every trait I can relate to. What made me understand myself even...

1) ah, blogthings. but they seem right on this time. see below for link.

Your personality type is dreamy, romantic, elegant, and expressive.

Only about 5% of all people have your...

As an introvert, I once sought knowledge of the world.
As an intuitive person, I saw what the workings of ignorance did to the best of us.
As feelings wash over me like the (in)constant waves, that,
As perceiving would have it, I make...

How does one put the sky into a box? The extent of a person's spirit reaches far beyond the sky. Think a moment upon these two sentences.Beyond all that can be defined about any single person, lies that person's true definition.If you...

   We all face many of the same problems, loneliness, sadness, wondering why we exist, but at the same time, we have hope, we are the dreamers of society. I have always loved dreaming, dreaming of perfect worlds without war, dreaming...

I feel that being an INFP is like being an alien, no matter how hard you try you feel like a visitor from another world and spend a good deal of your time either trying to acclamate and exist in this strange and hostile environment or...

I am loving myself, in a caring fashion, because someone very special once imagined that I would have to do so -- and that was me as a child. The inner child, for me, is not really a metaphorical attribute put forth by psychologists...
