Agree with this, plus the fact that since we can think of thousand possible ways how the world may react, thus the pressure of being judged harshly is there. I write poetry books and this is very true for me.
I found a way to combat this-ish.... I would sometimes finish 1 project out of millions on my PC, show them to 1 of my friend but I don’t read their comments or listen to their judgements until I have judged it myself. I create fake scenarios about her comments while waiting for her to comment on it. Something like “ya this part isn’t good enough, this part made me cringe, I like this part it’s funny” etc etc and once I’m done judging it myself through fake scenarios I talk to her about the project and it makes everything feel less judging because I already fake scenario it. And mind you, she’s very critical about everything, she’s INTJ. If this makes any sense xD
I have been scared of dogs since I was a toddler, and I found out recently that when I was a toddler, I crawled up to a dog and said 'hi doggy' (??) and it barked right in my face and so that's apparently the actual reason why I've been scared of dogs my whole life, and I have been obsessing over that knowledge since I found out 😂
"They would like to finish things...but new ideas are, just too nice..." I think this point is well understood by most MBTI practitioners about INFPs. But it's just how you frame it, and your delivery that makes this so rich. But yes, this is a very real struggle, and believe me, can have very real detrimental consequences, which I won't go here, other than to say, being an ideas guy, having shiny object syndrome etc, is a recipe for going absolutely NOWHERE, very quickly.
The examples really cracked me up because they are so true to me. Like i bought an electric organ then a violin then a guitar but only get to spend little time with them and i want to volunteer somewhere where i can spend my days observing manta rays or turtles or whales😅 Though sometimes i wish I'd get more serious and concentrate on one thing but it's just impossible.
I was researching quadcopters for years. I learned to build a copter, the different standards and classes of parts... And right when I finally got started, I got bored and now my copters are decorations. Heck, I've got so many keyboards and PC components just sitting around. I think a lot of this stems from being lonely. Without anyone to enjoy these hobbies with, the spark dwindles. And all the excitement is exhausted. All that's left is to find something new again.

One time I thought about moving to another country and I decided that I would look into Sweden so it was literally like 2 in the morning and I was watching youtube videos about how to speak Swedish. At 2:45 my eyes were starting to burn and I was like "No, can't go to sleep yet, I need to learn more Swedish." Then I was like "WTF am I even doing right now? I will probably never even go to Sweden. What is wrong with me?" And then last year around Christmas I stumbled upon a video of someone playing a kalimba and I thought it looked fun so I bought one on an impulse thinking that I would spend countless hours playing it and would become this world renowned kalimba player. I have literally only spent about 30 minutes even playing it this whole year. I need help.
"A very 'out there' type"...I just love this. INFP's honestly are not drawn to INFP videos because we feel flattered and are self-centered, at least not much more self-centered than other types :P, but we ARE an 'out there' type, and practically all our lives we feel a bit misfit...and when someone gets us, really gets us, and we are understood, it's an incredible feeling. Really.
Look! The thing most people get wrong about INFPs is, that they think we don't like people, or we don't like life or we are not happy a lot. But the thing is, we do love all the things, and we are happy a lot. We just don't show it to you a lot. I can enjoy and celebrate something, while standing completly still just smiling a bit. I really enjoy spending time with people. But after a few minutes I need to go back to my cave and recover from it. I do love life, while else would I enrich it with my art or try to capture is through photos?
I'm an INFP and I cried through the whole video 😭 I think I speak for all of us when I say thank you for making us feel understood and beautiful as we are, it means a ton 😭❤️
lol 😂 you're so sweet and this is brilliant! As an INFP, this week, I have learned to play the kalimba, make soap and scented candles....I'm very happy with myself as I did ACTUALLY do them 💪👍 yay me 😂!!
Love your videos and as an INFP I toggle between laughing my ass off and then cringing at the truth. Good shit :) That whole part on the "please love me, but stay away at the same time" is spot on. It's hard to come to terms with that contradiction but I suffer from that a lot.
I really felt what you said about making mistakes. For me a lot of what I think about is mistakes I've made, things I should have done differently, then going through the motions in my head endlessly. So when someone points out a mistake I make and they're not gentle about it, it really eats me up.
Oh man. 7:40 is priceless! Haha. Seriously, still not even halfway done with your video, and I'm calling this a masterpiece. You must have a lot of INFP friends and family in your life. I've never seen a video on INFPs quite like this.
11:43 Absolutely spot on and hilarious. INFPs and all of our horribly mis-managed projects we are juggling, with a constant eye on new ideas and opportunities... It never ends.
I appreciate how well you breakdown the data and make it easy to understand.its not just textbook information. You add original examples. I mean your description of the different mbti types really sticks in the brain. And i really like the cat in the thumbnail.🐈
Paradoxes of INFPs, omg it’s killing me 🤣🤣 Have endless incessant ideas and things I want to do but can’t do them because I’m too busy imagining new ones… No, please please don’t come talk to me, ignore the phone calls, but dessssperately long for human connection. I believe we were meant for a reality of instant manifestation (no doing necessary) and telepathic communication (no talking required) others can just “get” us. Is this asking too much?!!?
I adore INFPs, but it made me laugh and feel warm inside when you said that they "will show you something very beautiful that they have created, but it isn't finished. They could finish it, but they don't want to." I am not an INFP (INFJ), but I so enjoy all aspects of the INFP personality. 🥰
I feel bad now.. i have no art skills. I cannot draw, make music, poems, etc. I have stories but they do not turn out well when they come out of my mind. I sometimes make melodies in my head but it's not the same thing because you need skill to make them actually sound nice (and everyone probably does that). I have ideas but they are random useless things. I also hate being forced to use my "creativity", and when I am nothing comes to me.
Whenever I'm feeling like nobody in the world understands me...I need to remind myself of your videos. (It's so nice to hear my type being called beautiful.) I feel like intps get infps better than anyone. My life long best friend is intp.
I absolutely love your videos. They are my new obsession as an INFP. You are so very insightful. It feels so good to have someone who shares these ways. Thank you.
That was very good! I love when different types, give honest perspectives on infps. I find lots of infp videos are to nice, fake or not on point. And omg yes I'm just waiting for someone to ask me all my ideas and thoughts and have a deep understanding and connection with each other. Thanks for the video! I had to replay this a few times because everything you said had a point! So good! keep it up!
I've never felt so understood before I watched this video. Every time I tried to open up my feelings, most of them will try to rationalize my feelings and told me to man up. They never truly listen to me. Thank you so much!
The sky is always reliably going to be there when I go out and look up, it makes me happy and soothes me. It's so familiar but at the same time always different and surprising, never ceases to amaze me But also, I think it's just become a meme for whatever reason
OMG, I'm obsessed with your videos since yesterday 🤗. You're so funny 😂I've been studying astrology just to try to understand myself better and it's been great (even thought of becoming an astrologer, or coach, or psychologist but never followed up unfortunately) but listening to your videos is next level. Couldn't get better and so nice to see I'm not the only weird person but a type and not my fault 😅
As an INFP this video made me cry, because I feel like finally someone understands me like no other person and It's just so beautiful and..... And........... Amazing video man. 😌
Bro as an INFP, you have absolutely no idea how many of folders and files are on my PC just sitting there being label as unfinished.... I had to drag them into another folder and then drag them into another folder just so I can try to organize them...
Your mom must be so happy to know you love her so much that you’d even study her personality type (which I also appreciate as someone who’s an INFP as well) 😁👍
I never finish things as a self defense mechanism to never let my perfectionist self criticize the end result and regret making the thing I enjoyed making. Or get stuck perfecting one thing and not getting to work on something else. As an infp. Also love your vids
I just came to the conclution after years of trying to finish things that in fact I'm too afraid of people judgment about what I've done. Being so sensitive to criticism in general but still taking the criticism and actually try to improve myself made me afraid to disappoint anybody else. That's why I also avoid finishing projects besides the fact that I sometimes get bored.
We are the starters of world changing ideas.. when is everyone else going to pick up and finish our brilliance? It seems like to me "they" are the ones not finishing these things.
Wow that was really special! It's like watching someone describe me even better than I would describe myself!! I felt something deep! I was even listening with a smile on my face (although some facts made me tearing up🤭) But I just wanted to let you know that through your videos you have given me the hope that I'll find someone who understands me and maybe accepts me and loves me as I am😌 THANK YOU so much, you are doing GREAT job🌹✨
Thank you for this video. I'm really happy you explain us with very accurate words and phrases. Thank you for making me very special. I'm depressed lately and feel worthless. At least this video make my day! When I'm taking first MBTI test, I got INFJ. But I'm not satisfied with it because there are a few things not match. So I take it second time, then I got INFP. But I'm disappointed at that time. Because I really hate INFP traits personally because I read other types hate INFP because they're selfish, too sensitive and moody (they're true that I'm sensitive and moody but it's hurt when they say that). I take the test a lot of time, then I just accept the truth. So now, I'm proud being an INFP. I have to learn a lot about my trait and improve myself to be healthy INFP.
Note : I'm really greatful that I have found this channel, I was really disappointed in myself and I just tried to change my true authentic self because I don't fit into any place, I never found who really understand and resonate with me. I always wanted one person to know me and love me the way I am, and here I found this channel and I'm so grateful for that. I really like it because you are so positive. You saved my life, otherwise I would have died in anytime. Thanx man. This is for u ➡ ❤🎀 I hope you will get what you most want in this life🥳 ( I really wished you have uploaded about other personalities too, maybe be it would be a help to somebody out there, then I just remembered you are an INTP and you will not blend that well with extrovert personalities 🙈) Oh, I forgot to put it in the top that I'm an INFP, I just added it at the end in case I will delete whole comment🥴🤯
@@BenjaminSpicy Mom: ESFJ Dad:ESFP Sister:ESFJ Imagine being the only introvert, and INTP above all, the "how could he stay in his room so long" was a constant question in the household hahaha.
This is very hilarious and on point! My instagram acct is nothing but pictures of the sky lol. Also there's somethin bout the way you speak that makes this even funnier haha
I just realized I probably never talked for hours straight... but then I had those long discussions with my ex about stuff, that always ended in sudden outbursts of utter haterade on my end. Aware or not she really knew how to push my buttons, forcing me into debates when actually I wanted to tell stuff. After one such occasion I decided that I had enough and... never talked to her again.
Just found this channel and it’s like a safe space for me. I watched another videos of yours where you say that we are the group that retakes this test just to make sure and I’ve definitely done that. 🤣 I’m so curious as to l ow I’d most of us have an Aquarius moon. Lmk if you do! I love y’all 💜
won't give it to me I can hear in your VOICE how you say it's nice but you feel sadness and maybe even a little hatred for that weakness. The moment I feel with you. It takes a very sad song to get me out of myself...amazing work. it's a gift.
I'm INFP-A I fit all of what you said but I do think regarding people I've overcome the hesitation of reaching out to people or putting myself out there at least in search of closer bonds which sadly I don't find often even tho I've become fairly socially competent. And I do think it is hard to break the ice with new people but past that I try to really deeply get to know people. And in general maybe it's different from most but I am talkative more now than ever but I believe that to be because in my life my silence hasn't always awarded me. Had narcissistic environments where I'd constantly get gaslit, and in general often me not speaking up would result in brain fog because I use to be super scatterbrain (prolly still am but it's way better). But that and also I'd have way more outgoing people that I'd come to know that took me under their wing and really tried to break me out of my constant retreating reserved nature. And in those experiences I realized there are ways I can go about putting myself out there. It changed my life for the better to go about things this way but I can understand and empathize with the many that may feel it's better to keep things to themselves or see external environments as scary or whatever the reason. I've been there and in some ways still deeply struggle with those feelings (like I can't handle picking up phone calls from employers or even close people at times). Thank you for making this video by the way and if you by chance read this I'm curious to know your type. And I'm always happy to know in a world that tends to be cold there are people so warm especially towards INFPs ... cuz a lot of us tend to feel outcasted or get caught up feeling less than cuz we haven't amounted to the outcomes we idealized. But yes I was touched by this video thank you
I don't know if it's really me because I have a little similarity in my personality, sometimes I lock myself in my room and then I turn off the light to listen to classical music. I will do something special in my mind and I will expand it Example I'm making a poem The tiny and Red flowers gradually Open At the same time the Opening of the Yellow Wings and beautiful butterfly, and it gradually flew away from the Flower in the middle of its flight tired and broke the beautiful and large wing At the same time the Fall to the ground and it gradually disappeared It turned to ash and disappeared like a bubble passed the tag Rain and tag sun There was a tree gradually growing and There was a leaf and etc....
Loved your description! Love from a distance hit home. I used to have a fantasy love affair with Spock, there would be a mind meld that was permanent, and we would explore the galaxies from different sectors while analyzing, conferring, troubleshooting, and brainstorming telepathically, lol. Sigh.
Just a little note, I personally am not shy around new people, unless in an unhealthy state. I'm just reserved around new people. Simply put, why would I be open to someone I've just met?
a very mysterious video with your blobby face. LOL. I'm glad you're real and not one of those annoying 'robot' fake voices, like most M-B personality TH-cam videos are.
About finishing the painting... and learning to play drums... and the new species in the jungle... I laughed aloud, alone in my home and my bed, in the middle of the night. My dog lifted his ears, it's usually so silent here. Well, except my keyboard... and Cretan lyra... and all sizes of recorders... and a bamboo saxophone... but I mean lately it has been silent here. And yesterday evening I took a picture of the sky because it was so beautiful - again. I have a hundred sky photos taken from my window, plus all the others taken everywhere else. And just when I was writing this, my soul sister from Brazil - whom I have met only once - sent me a video of new insect species in the jungle! No wonder she is my soul sister. Greetings from Finland!
That 'so many activities' sent because I acquired so many hobbies within a year - gardening, piano, ukelele, guitar, journaling, main art, teabag art, painting, crossstitch, embroidery, astrology, psychology, business and finance, philosophy, spirituality, tarot reading, baking, cooking and i'm also reading mangas, watching anime and tv series, writing fictions---- it overwhelmed the fuck out of me so I left soc med except TH-cam to accomodate time for all those hobbies and I have work --- and it feels like 24 hours isnt enough. I also like day dreaming and writing and listening to podcasts. Good thing I dont go outside a lot and I dont need human interaction that much.
Way back then I had bought Prisma brand colored pencils but, I never truly got better at this Art. I guess this was just another Phase of a project I can't finish.
This makes me laugh so hard, thanks for sharing. I thought forever that I must be INFJ, because of what seems like high Fe & Ni..but this describes me to a T! The 2 seem so similar but it’s in the nuances of cognition✨ You are hilarious!😄💛
Haven't even reached the 3 minute mark, but was already compelled to smash that subscribe button. Well played, now on to the remaining 16 odd minutes :)
You have no idea how many uncountable times I have re-watched your videos so far just cause your words could be my very own, even the decision to blur out your face xD. Every time I watch them, I imagine how I would send those links to someone secretly wishing for them to get the deep meaning behind that gesture as well as the context .. also what those people might think while they watch it. I also pictured how much fun it would be having a deep but silly conversation with you - at the same time the thought of the social interaction alone already gives me anxiety *haha
I've never felt so understood when I heard "Stay away and love me at the same time" and about coming up with something smart to say to win an argument in my head. I can come up with perfect evidence, facts and things that point out the flaws of the person that angered me that can potentially end their whole career all in my head, but I never actually say anything because I hate conflicts, and as soon as it starts I just want to end it as quickly as possible.
The ONLY infp thing about me that is not is the crying part. I mean i seldom cry about my strife. Almost never. But i would shed a tear or two watching dogs video (or other peoples affliction around the world) . Its tt emotional. 😁 Ps. Why do you blur your face out. Relax. We get ourselves. Non judgemental and open minded people. These things are generally correct in all of us infps.
I make so many mistakes. And every mistake hurts. My supervisor will talk to me about a mistake I've made, and I have to pretend that it's so trivial, like I didn't even know it happened. But deep inside, I was already dwelling on it, waiting for someone to bring it up. And I have to say that I will never make that mistake again. But to make that mistake in the first place, I had to be put in a place where all the chips were down and I sought escape above all else. I can see the problem coming from far away, but I am impudent to avoid it. Time is of the essence, and it's too awkward to speak up. I just let go..let the situation resolve itself. I don't want to go against the tide, even if I see the repercussions that could follow. There have been times when I saw someone doing something incorrectly. And it was so obvious to me. But I didn't want to say anything. Maybe because it might have displayed an objection to my belief in that person's competence. I will never put anyone underneath myself. I will take the fall, I will make the mistake. And hopefully, they won't even notice it.
Infp here (surprised?!) with diagnosed bipolar which is actually nice, kinda, when hitting a manic episode - I get things done. And the therapy connected with it REALLY help with overthinking. Thank you for this video. Kinda new to MBTI and still somewhat uncertain if I'm an infp.. But I wonder for myself if all these years of handling bipolar have helped with the "weaknesses" of an infp. Here's something to ponder about fellow infp out there: It's scary to make a phonecall. If your friend phone you, answer because they're brave to do so 😊
I really cant get that so many people speak about infp's that when you say something bad to them, they will smile but cry after that for a week in silence I would reflect if everything they said has any truth with reality and if not then I would only feel sorry for them and think why they act like that So thats totally bullshit I feel no remorse or respect for people that dont respect me back. If i dont see someone worthy of my time why would i do that? As for the rest, I totally agree
To all INFPs: I have imagined a beautiful continent somewhere and I want all of you to come and live with me there.
Aww, thanks. I just hope there's plenty of space on that continent.
I hope we don't forgot to get food tho
where? take me with you

I think part of the problem with getting things done, is that if it's finished, it will be judged.
Agree with this, plus the fact that since we can think of thousand possible ways how the world may react, thus the pressure of being judged harshly is there.

And mind you, she’s very critical about everything, she’s INTJ.
If this makes any sense xD
For me the problem is that I want to something impressive, unique, and when I compare my attempts to really good works I get discouraged.
It's important to find people who accept what you finish, acceptance is a judgement.

I absolutely love your videos. They are my new obsession as an INFP. You are so very insightful. It feels so good to have someone who shares these ways. Thank you.
I'm very glad that you like them 😊😊
Same here. I'm so grateful.
That was very good! I love when different types, give honest perspectives on infps. I find lots of infp videos are to nice, fake or not on point.
And omg yes I'm just waiting for someone to ask me all my ideas and thoughts and have a deep understanding and connection with each other.
Thanks for the video! I had to replay this a few times because everything you said had a point! So good! keep it up!
Thank you!
I've never felt so understood before I watched this video. Every time I tried to open up my feelings, most of them will try to rationalize my feelings and told me to man up. They never truly listen to me. Thank you so much!
why are we so obsessed with skies and pictures of skies and just photography in general? my own behavior never stops to baffle me 😅
Because we come from the skies 👽🕳
The sky is always reliably going to be there when I go out and look up, it makes me happy and soothes me. It's so familiar but at the same time always different and surprising, never ceases to amaze me
But also, I think it's just become a meme for whatever reason

OMG, I'm obsessed with your videos since yesterday 🤗. You're so funny 😂I've been studying astrology just to try to understand myself better and it's been great (even thought of becoming an astrologer, or coach, or psychologist but never followed up unfortunately) but listening to your videos is next level. Couldn't get better and so nice to see I'm not the only weird person but a type and not my fault 😅
Lol I also turned to astrology and numerology to better understand myself, turns out these videos have the answers! Thanks Spicy 💚💋
why are you so kind. We don't deserve this :c
I hope you had meaningful day 👏🏻🌛
As an INFP this video made me cry, because I feel like finally someone understands me like no other person and It's just so beautiful and..... And........... Amazing video man. 😌
I feel the same, i feel that I'm being understood, and i was crying right away
Bro as an INFP, you have absolutely no idea how many of folders and files are on my PC just sitting there being label as unfinished.... I had to drag them into another folder and then drag them into another folder just so I can try to organize them...
I'm an INFP but iv never had a problem with people disliking my ideas or art. I like criticism
My mum is an infp. I, as an intj have spent 39 years studying this type. I can honestly say this is spot on.
Your mom must be so happy to know you love her so much that you’d even study her personality type (which I also appreciate as someone who’s an INFP as well) 😁👍
lmao that filter basically lets you figure out what they look like in the small preview on the playback x3
I never finish things as a self defense mechanism to never let my perfectionist self criticize the end result and regret making the thing I enjoyed making. Or get stuck perfecting one thing and not getting to work on something else. As an infp. Also love your vids
I just came to the conclution after years of trying to finish things that in fact I'm too afraid of people judgment about what I've done. Being so sensitive to criticism in general but still taking the criticism and actually try to improve myself made me afraid to disappoint anybody else. That's why I also avoid finishing projects besides the fact that I sometimes get bored.
We are the starters of world changing ideas.. when is everyone else going to pick up and finish our brilliance? It seems like to me "they" are the ones not finishing these things.
Funniest comment ever.
Thank you very much, your videos have opened my eyes and helped me to understand myself even more, to accept who I am. I'm glad I'm an INFP.
I just wanted to say that is the most loving video for INFP I have ever seen. I feel loved and left alone. Thank you
stop spying on me. did not consent to this level of accuracy
For real. And I love it.
The first time someone is sooo nice and patiently explaining my personality type and accurately decoded me......thanks so much ♥️
Benjamin, you aee hysterical and make me laugh out loud which is hard to do . Please continue making content as you are an inspiration! - An INFP
Wow that was really special! It's like watching someone describe me even better than I would describe myself!!
I felt something deep! I was even listening with a smile on my face (although some facts made me tearing up🤭)
But I just wanted to let you know that through your videos you have given me the hope that I'll find someone who understands me and maybe accepts me and loves me as I am😌
THANK YOU so much, you are doing
GREAT job🌹✨
I'm very happy that I could have a positive impact 😊😊
I watched this an hour ago and I'm still crying.
Thank you for this video. I'm really happy you explain us with very accurate words and phrases. Thank you for making me very special. I'm depressed lately and feel worthless. At least this video make my day! When I'm taking first MBTI test, I got INFJ. But I'm not satisfied with it because there are a few things not match. So I take it second time, then I got INFP. But I'm disappointed at that time. Because I really hate INFP traits personally because I read other types hate INFP because they're selfish, too sensitive and moody (they're true that I'm sensitive and moody but it's hurt when they say that). I take the test a lot of time, then I just accept the truth. So now, I'm proud being an INFP. I have to learn a lot about my trait and improve myself to be healthy INFP.
INFPs are great and they get even better with time 😄
“I can’t finish the painting because I want to learn drums”.... how did you know😂🤣😂😅
I don't want to talk because i feel like bothering other people,
your voice is so nice- infp
You hit the nail on the head with what you said about feeling negativity to the bone. It feels like pins and needles all over.
Crying cause you get me and no one ever gets me. 😂😅😆🥺
The sensitive part is so true - I will smile then cry for a week (or more) dwelling on it
Note : I'm really greatful that I have found this channel, I was really disappointed in myself and I just tried to change my true authentic self because I don't fit into any place, I never found who really understand and resonate with me.
I always wanted one person to know me and love me the way I am, and here I found this channel and I'm so grateful for that. I really like it because you are so positive. You saved my life, otherwise I would have died in anytime. Thanx man.
This is for u ➡ ❤🎀
I hope you will get what you most want in this life🥳
( I really wished you have uploaded about other personalities too, maybe be it would be a help to somebody out there, then I just remembered you are an INTP and you will not blend that well with extrovert personalities 🙈)
Oh, I forgot to put it in the top that I'm an INFP, I just added it at the end in case I will delete whole comment🥴🤯
That's literally my girlfriend, point by point, after learning the personalities type I can now not be hurt by the "love me, but at a distance"
That's the best thing about MBTI, learning how to interact with other people 😄
@@BenjaminSpicy Exactly, made my mom and dad take the test hahaha
Haha what did they get? 😃
@@BenjaminSpicy Mom: ESFJ
Dad:ESFP
Sister:ESFJ
Imagine being the only introvert, and INTP above all, the "how could he stay in his room so long" was a constant question in the household hahaha.
Aah I feel you , at least now you know why 😃
“Very very creative”
Me creating a piece of art rn: 😅
It's so hard to find INFP that doesn't do some kind of art 😃
@@BenjaminSpicy not I, an infp, with a drawing as my pfp 💀
"INFPs are very nice"
Thanks for that I do feel the same about other INFPs not for me 😭 😭😭
This is hilarious and it hurts a little too. I'm gonna go start the next random project that I won't finish.
Haha 😂 good luck, I'm sure you'll get it done this time 😊
I wrote this comment before the video had finished playing...this is no joke spot on. still hurts tho
Thanks, I'm editing an INFP video right now, it'll be up tommorow around 12, maybe it will cheer you up!
OMG. I’m am recovering from surgery and my favorite part of this is I can isolate. I don’t have to go out at all.
This is very hilarious and on point! My instagram acct is nothing but pictures of the sky lol.
Also there's somethin bout the way you speak that makes this even funnier haha
Haha nice! Thanks a lot 😊
I just realized I probably never talked for hours straight... but then I had those long discussions with my ex about stuff, that always ended in sudden outbursts of utter haterade on my end. Aware or not she really knew how to push my buttons, forcing me into debates when actually I wanted to tell stuff. After one such occasion I decided that I had enough and... never talked to her again.
Why no face mate?
🟨🟨🟨🟥🟥🟩🟩🟦
You did a good job, I shed a few tears there hit home hard!!!
You should do all types
It makes it easier to make videos for some reason 😂 I'm glad you liked it, I'll definitely do more types 😀
@@BenjaminSpicy Something about the blurred face makes your opinion seem unbiased and neutral even though I know it’s an allusion
@@BenjaminSpicy you are an intp?
Yes I Am 😄
@@BenjaminSpicy oh nice, I like your take on infps. I didn't know intps were down with fi honestly.
Just found this channel and it’s like a safe space for me. I watched another videos of yours where you say that we are the group that retakes this test just to make sure and I’ve definitely done that. 🤣 I’m so curious as to l ow I’d most of us have an Aquarius moon. Lmk if you do! I love y’all 💜
won't give it to me I can hear in your VOICE how you say it's nice but you feel sadness and maybe even a little hatred for that weakness. The moment I feel with you. It takes a very sad song to get me out of myself...amazing work. it's a gift.
The dots on your face are so sweet to look at instead of a blurred faced
The word you need to use is paradox. And how the hell do you know that I take so many pictures of the sky??
I'm INFP-A I fit all of what you said but I do think regarding people I've overcome the hesitation of reaching out to people or putting myself out there at least in search of closer bonds which sadly I don't find often even tho I've become fairly socially competent. And I do think it is hard to break the ice with new people but past that I try to really deeply get to know people.
And in general maybe it's different from most but I am talkative more now than ever but I believe that to be because in my life my silence hasn't always awarded me. Had narcissistic environments where I'd constantly get gaslit, and in general often me not speaking up would result in brain fog because I use to be super scatterbrain (prolly still am but it's way better).
But that and also I'd have way more outgoing people that I'd come to know that took me under their wing and really tried to break me out of my constant retreating reserved nature. And in those experiences I realized there are ways I can go about putting myself out there.
It changed my life for the better to go about things this way but I can understand and empathize with the many that may feel it's better to keep things to themselves or see external environments as scary or whatever the reason. I've been there and in some ways still deeply struggle with those feelings (like I can't handle picking up phone calls from employers or even close people at times).
Thank you for making this video by the way and if you by chance read this I'm curious to know your type. And I'm always happy to know in a world that tends to be cold there are people so warm especially towards INFPs ... cuz a lot of us tend to feel outcasted or get caught up feeling less than cuz we haven't amounted to the outcomes we idealized. But yes I was touched by this video thank you
"Please love them, and leave them alone, with love." 🤣 ...no wait 😥 ...OK, gotta go 🦄🌈
We hate conflict but we are the absolute best at winning conflicts. Preferably with verbal kung fu
I don't know if it's really me because I have a little similarity in my personality, sometimes I lock myself in my room and then I turn off the light to listen to classical music. I will do something special in my mind and I will expand it
Example I'm making a poem
The tiny and Red flowers gradually Open At the same time the Opening of the Yellow Wings and beautiful butterfly, and it gradually flew away from the Flower in the middle of its flight tired and broke the beautiful and large wing At the same time the Fall to the ground and it gradually disappeared It turned to ash and disappeared like a bubble passed the tag Rain and tag sun There was a tree gradually growing and There was a leaf and etc....
Love this video! Your description is very accurate and the way you express yourself is very nice to listen to :)
Thanks that's very nice of you 😊 glad you enjoyed the video 😄
Loved your description! Love from a distance hit home. I used to have a fantasy love affair with Spock, there would be a mind meld that was permanent, and we would explore the galaxies from different sectors while analyzing, conferring, troubleshooting, and brainstorming telepathically, lol. Sigh.
Just a little note, I personally am not shy around new people, unless in an unhealthy state. I'm just reserved around new people. Simply put, why would I be open to someone I've just met?
Thanks for the comment. That's a good point. I'm sort of the same way :)
This was really REALLY accurate!
Glad to hear that 😊
a very mysterious video with your blobby face. LOL. I'm glad you're real and not one of those annoying 'robot' fake voices, like most M-B personality TH-cam videos are.
About finishing the painting... and learning to play drums... and the new species in the jungle... I laughed aloud, alone in my home and my bed, in the middle of the night. My dog lifted his ears, it's usually so silent here. Well, except my keyboard... and Cretan lyra... and all sizes of recorders... and a bamboo saxophone... but I mean lately it has been silent here.
And yesterday evening I took a picture of the sky because it was so beautiful - again. I have a hundred sky photos taken from my window, plus all the others taken everywhere else.
And just when I was writing this, my soul sister from Brazil - whom I have met only once - sent me a video of new insect species in the jungle! No wonder she is my soul sister.
Greetings from Finland!
That 'so many activities' sent because I acquired so many hobbies within a year - gardening, piano, ukelele, guitar, journaling, main art, teabag art, painting, crossstitch, embroidery, astrology, psychology, business and finance, philosophy, spirituality, tarot reading, baking, cooking and i'm also reading mangas, watching anime and tv series, writing fictions---- it overwhelmed the fuck out of me so I left soc med except TH-cam to accomodate time for all those hobbies and I have work --- and it feels like 24 hours isnt enough. I also like day dreaming and writing and listening to podcasts.
Good thing I dont go outside a lot and I dont need human interaction that much.
“They take great pictures of the sky”....my camera roll has just entered the chat 😅
Way back then I had bought Prisma brand colored pencils but, I never truly got better at this Art. I guess this was just another Phase of a project I can't finish.
i love listening to youuuuu i just love it.... i feel like finally someone understand me
u describe the INFP very accurately .. thank you
This makes me laugh so hard, thanks for sharing. I thought forever that I must be INFJ, because of what seems like high Fe & Ni..but this describes me to a T! The 2 seem so similar but it’s in the nuances of cognition✨ You are hilarious!😄💛
Haven't even reached the 3 minute mark, but was already compelled to smash that subscribe button. Well played, now on to the remaining 16 odd minutes :)
Same! :D He had me at "If you say something wrong to them, they will smile to you but then they will cry in their sleep....for a week" :DD
This is so accurate and funny, love it!
I think we procrastinate because we are afraid to make a mistake . Probably, one of the parents was very exigent...and rough..
You have no idea how many uncountable times I have re-watched your videos so far just cause your words could be my very own, even the decision to blur out your face xD. Every time I watch them, I imagine how I would send those links to someone secretly wishing for them to get the deep meaning behind that gesture as well as the context .. also what those people might think while they watch it. I also pictured how much fun it would be having a deep but silly conversation with you - at the same time the thought of the social interaction alone already gives me anxiety *haha
I've never felt so understood when I heard "Stay away and love me at the same time" and about coming up with something smart to say to win an argument in my head. I can come up with perfect evidence, facts and things that point out the flaws of the person that angered me that can potentially end their whole career all in my head, but I never actually say anything because I hate conflicts, and as soon as it starts I just want to end it as quickly as possible.
The ONLY infp thing about me that is not is the crying part.
I mean i seldom cry about my strife.
Almost never.
But i would shed a tear or two watching dogs video (or other peoples affliction around the world) . Its tt emotional. 😁
Ps. Why do you blur your face out. Relax. We get ourselves. Non judgemental and open minded people. These things are generally correct in all of us infps.
I actually kind of cried towards the end of this video, lol. I cry a lot. I even cried while watching anime last night.
This made me cry
I can imagine your face instantly with just a glance of your face on your pfp.
I make so many mistakes. And every mistake hurts. My supervisor will talk to me about a mistake I've made, and I have to pretend that it's so trivial, like I didn't even know it happened. But deep inside, I was already dwelling on it, waiting for someone to bring it up. And I have to say that I will never make that mistake again. But to make that mistake in the first place, I had to be put in a place where all the chips were down and I sought escape above all else. I can see the problem coming from far away, but I am impudent to avoid it. Time is of the essence, and it's too awkward to speak up. I just let go..let the situation resolve itself. I don't want to go against the tide, even if I see the repercussions that could follow. There have been times when I saw someone doing something incorrectly. And it was so obvious to me. But I didn't want to say anything. Maybe because it might have displayed an objection to my belief in that person's competence. I will never put anyone underneath myself. I will take the fall, I will make the mistake. And hopefully, they won't even notice it.
Infp here (surprised?!) with diagnosed bipolar which is actually nice, kinda, when hitting a manic episode - I get things done. And the therapy connected with it REALLY help with overthinking.
Thank you for this video. Kinda new to MBTI and still somewhat uncertain if I'm an infp.. But I wonder for myself if all these years of handling bipolar have helped with the "weaknesses" of an infp.
Here's something to ponder about fellow infp out there: It's scary to make a phonecall. If your friend phone you, answer because they're brave to do so 😊
Holy accuracy Batman!!!
Geez, I feel a little exposed. Lol!!
woah. had me crying. Thank you.
You crack me up...every time. Thanks for my weekly (or monthly) laugh.
I really cant get that so many people speak about infp's that when you say something bad to them, they will smile but cry after that for a week in silence
I would reflect if everything they said has any truth with reality and if not then I would only feel sorry for them and think why they act like that
So thats totally bullshit
I feel no remorse or respect for people that dont respect me back. If i dont see someone worthy of my time why would i do that?
As for the rest, I totally agree
