Ofcourse 😊 with struggles and all. I still wouldn't want to trade for the challanges of other types. After all I'm equipped for mine better than for theirs 😉
Yes i like being a infp but i can also not like a few things about it But ya know after all, im just here existing so meh i cant do anything about it Also my best friend is a istj and he a good buddy
hmmm, could it be becus our (INFP) extraverted intuition tends to manifest in a way similar to extraverted sensing? but at the same time we're so similar, so there's a sense of safe familiarity?
I have a INFP friend (and I’m an INFJ). Of course I like her, but I don’t think we have a special bond. She’s a little too similar to me. When she gives me advice I feel like I’m having a conversation with myself. ENFPs on the other hand - I always click with them immediately.
INFJ - When there is a drop of a teardrop and there will be a ripple effects INFP - When there is a ripple effects and there must be a teardrop dropped
I can only cry when the emotion to cry is felt, you can cry all day long in front of me and if i dont feel it well i just feel guilt for not sharing your grief and wonder whats wrong with me and start to worry about myself. Im infj.
@@Angel-gb9gi Same!! I've had quite a lot problems with crying, I can't easily cry Even if I want to. Whereas my INFP sister can just easily let her feelings out really well.. ~INFJ
My brother is an INFJ and I am an INFP. When I tell my brother my dreams he somehow knows what I need to do to get it done. When my brother faces a challenge, I know how to inspire him to never give up. We get a lot done together.
I am an INFP and I was surprised when the visual memory was mentioned. It was one of things that I find bizarre to myself because even the things that happened to me years ago seems like yesterday for it appears vividly on my mind. But on the other hand, I usually have some trouble remembering things/events that didn't really register to me or I ain't had a certain attachment to.
Yeah this. Here I am desperately trying to remember mundane things or things that I know are important but don't feel are important. Like names 😭 I can remember what energy, what body language a person had and what story they told (if it's deep) but I can't tell their name even after meeting them several times and let's not start talking about things like hair cuts or colors or clothes 😂. But then I'll go and vividly remember what that rain drop looked like jumping across hot spring water with HD sound and skin feeling and smell and all. Or hear and feel upon remembering the voice of a person I really adore and I'll feel the vibration of their voice sink into my bones although they're not there at all. 🤯 Brain! I luv u but u so impractical, I can't!!!!
@@KxNOxUTA Bro but in my case if its important things like my homework or stuff like that then i forget but if its things like that one day my friend fell on a motorcycle and we laughed it off for 10 minutes straight type of thing then i do remember it even of it was years ago and very well detailed
@@speedyboi349 That's the point. To our brains homework most of the times doesn't register as "important" at all unless it's a subject or teacher we care for. 😅 And the truth is: As nice as school materials are, a ton of it is indeed not overly useful in life. It's too specific. We are the types needing more brief exposure to many things AND constant exposure to methods over content. E.g.: "how to learn" methods over "materials to learn" and "How to pursue interests" versus "You must learn all of that down to detail or you're a bad student". And for us, memories of little things do mean the world. They're psychological pin-points that will safe, teach (or really hinder) us throughout our lives 😂. P.S.: it's "sis", dear! "sis" 😋
@@KxNOxUTA I learned more one week on a motorcycle than one year in school Motorcycles teached me discipline(kinda), responsibility and how nasty yet good can the world be School puts students in a pointless bubble teaching you a whopping 90% of things you will never use in the future in stead of teaching you how to apply for a job or pay taxes or make a job resume for a interview Cars have changed in the past decades, same for buildings, human behavior and same for politics but school just stays the same People change and so should the things around them
@@alejandra2 "Spacey" is a term that comes from the hippie generation of the 1960s. It means that your mind wanders a lot the way it does when you are on LSD. I find it to be an endearing quality, because INFPs have a lot of interesting thoughts going on all the time.
infjs - the most rare type of personalities infps - the most rare persons (because of the struggle of being unique creates something very original in the process)
@@CartoonyPirate iam not into nature at all. More like literature/philosophy/psychology/design/art. Just don’t get why everybody thinks infps are all hippies
I'm an INFJ and my one and only child is my son, an INFP lol. We are very, very close. I'm assuming it's the same with you? Very protective. Encouraging their dreams, sometimes frustrated by their lack of logic, yet inspired by their imagination.
It must be so lovely to have INFJ parents 😭 My husband is an INFJ and I'm an INFP so I hope our children will be more like him, because I frustrate myself daily. 😭😂
@@Hephzibah624 not to be like most of the MBTI community when I say this but both of my parents are sensor types (ISFJ and ESTJ) and I'm and INFP and I love ISFJs but I find it very hard to connect with them both because they're more traditional and stable and they find it hard to understand my complex nature and internal world because they're more in the outside world
Every time I take the Myer Briggs test, it always varies between INFJ and INFP... and usually the difference of the J and P are only 1% - 5%... these are always close in terms of comparison...
Omg same here. Taken two tests so far and the recent one said that I'm an INFP and older one was INFJ. I can relate to both of these personalities so Idk.
I feel like I'm borderline INFJ/INFP. About 50% of the INFJ features apply to me and also about 50% INFP. The more I look into the subject the more confused I get because most things of both these types apply to me and a few things in both the types don't. The only thing I'm certain about is that I am INFx.
I used to think that but then I took a more accurate cognitive functions test and realised I was INFJ and 16Personalities was wrong. I used Keys2Cognition.
@@neobliviscaris3346 That's not really possible since they don't share any cognitive functions - you probably just don't relate to the INFP stereotypes and relate to some of the INFJ ones, but that doesn't determine your actual type. Not everyone matches the stereotypes assigned to their type (sorry don't mean to sound over-explaining or patronising, I'm just saying this because that's what I didn't realise before)
@@lilrockstar8170 Yeah, the thing that helped me the most to figure it out was to analyze my childhood and teenage years because you act more natural as your true self and haven't had any personal development yet, so it was easier to recognize for me.
As an infj I hand it to the infps to remember mundane details like, "where did I leave the duct tape?" I feel I have an advantage to remember things with emotion like voice tone and facial recognition and happenings that were emotionally charged.
Yeah, Idk about that. I'm INFP and I might not remember where I left the duct tape because when I put it away I was daydreaming about a childhood memory or something. If I do remember where the duct tape was put it's because I always make sure to put it in the same spot because otherwise I won't remember.
With the memory. I am leaning towards INFJ, but I have very few memories from my childhood. Those I remember are quite vivid and have a layer of darkness and sadness. I remember dreams quite well and have often several and longer dreams in one night. In school, I had a really shitty memory though, which was a problem for me. But with music, I could play the violin from remembering the tone of the melody and how the notes went up and down. Couldn't read the notes for shit, but if I had heard the melody a few times I had it down. Whenever I remember an event/important conversation, I remember how the light was, what I was wearing, what the other person was wearing, my feelings, It's like remembering a scene from a movie. But I am also attracted to an INTJ.
I’m an INFP and married an ISTP. 🥰 Our favorite activity? Snuggling on the sofa, not saying much of anything, playing on our phones and sharing memes. 🥰
I am an INFJ and loved how they explored the deeper meaning and motivations and how each Personality perceives the outside world and how such insights internally and externally affects their interactions with ideas and others.
Fun fact: I'm an INFP, and my father is an ESTJ. I don't know how it happened, but it happened. Even tough I have an ESTJ as my father, I still don't like them very much. They can be very annoying sometimes.
I went on one date with an ESTJ, and felt certain he would've kept me as a controlled unicorn locked in his apartment for his own enjoyment of awe, if given the chance. 😆 Definitely in agreement with the terrified part. They want to own and dictate what appears to be a naive, vulnerable, sweet and kind INFP. The best minions, ever!! 😬😅🙃
Some people here are expressing that you sometimes get different results on the test. These are just guidelines to understanding tendencies. It's nothing set in stone. People are in a constant state of flux. We don't do things the same 100 percent of the time, especially as time goes on. To get different results is a sign that you are balanced in areas are that you are developing as a person. That's great. If you always get the same result. That's also great.
Hmm, my husband is an INFJ and he is a software engineer who thrives in discussing technical knowledge. I guess that's Ti. For me, I'm not that much into tech as I am with art, but am still fascinated by tech. Honestly I think he is 50/50 on logic and feeling. I'm more 30/70 xD I'm INFP btw
Same. I thought for decades I was INFJ, only to realise INFP have a lot of similarities to me. I did not get wiser from this video at all... I didn't understand half of it. I love order and should therefore be J, but with my ADHD I'm more close to P, even though I try to be neat.
Same... Every time I take the Myer Briggs test, it always varies between INFJ and INFP... and usually the difference of the J and P are only 1% to 5%... these are always close in terms of comparison...
I feel I am judging and perceiving person at the same time. .. Till now i was thinking of myself as an INFJ . But, on this patterns being judgmental over life is kind harming me . I choose to perceive with peace , instead of this. I believe I'm on the end cycle of Awakening and knowing the insights of my true being. No worry , whether I witness to be an INFJ / INFP I'm sure I feel like an Alien. What matter is how earthly and humanist will I make it , to this journey of Universe/Alien type.
We have access to all cognitive functions. So technically speaking if we practice we can use them all but the amount of work needed and on which parts, will differ greatly. So what defines out type is really more about "Going by which pattern will be the most natural" and about which pattern we'll most likely return to when things are at stake!! I guess the more balanced we are, the harder to tell your type or your dominant aspect 😋 After all the cognitive stack is just ...... one brick in what builds our house! (OK maybe more like the base/foundation of our house). But from there we'll havr countless other things shape us and shape what functions we train or are forced to train (in worst case at the cost of living, but short, because it eats us up being in a "fake skin" on the long run). At the end of the day it doesn't matter. It only matters if knowing more about yourself helps you with embracing yourself, others and finding ways to connect.
@@KxNOxUTA thank you so much . Have shed more light on my type. I'm sure I'm an INFJ. While I incited about the patterns , I mean I was in a realm of shedding old patterns and to embrace a new way of being. In both way it's Sufferings and Bliss . It's about how we make it . One has to experience the darkness in order to appreciate the light. The feeling of so much but not being able to articulate . I always have to check my phone to know what day it is, or even the day of the week. That is because I don't live in today. I live in yesterday, in three weeks ago, in ten years from now, in five minutes from now, and in times that do not exist in this plane and which I will never experience. But I definitely do not live in "now". Mf I feel like an alien. It hurts being only a person with this type among family , friends , relatives. No body feels for humanity and mankind around me . I don't fear dead , but I fear having to die without making this world a better place . Confession - doing nothing in life , While I'm at it, freed myself from the belief that my worthiness is directly proportional to how productive I was are and the manner in which I hold space for others. My self esteem goes from ' I'm a big failure and won't do anything substantial in life " to" I have a glorious purpose. " Am i wrong here? Because I can't just engage with the world , because I still don't feel understood of myself . Yet, knowing Everything about life. People are judging me over my addiction , doing nothing , etc I don't fit on fashion , upgrade , social facades and materialistic . But I feel the soul of others , it hurts being real and ain't anybody telling what they feel inside. Smalls talks , and gossip about shits kills me . I want those around me with Universe perspective, faith on Humanity, sharing life experiences , to learn and let learn from psychological to darkness path . Well , if it's really rare to be an INFJ , it's not fucking entertainment . It's real . There are people like us around , including me looking for type of own people ,which is like a dream come true . I don't speak human , nobody understands the word I'm saying . 💚🌎🙏♾️
@@joewjones14 thank you 💚😑😇. Let's do it gang 👽 🌎🌌 Humanity 😑💚 , where is this generation going idk . Why on earth this tiktok / reels are trends which is turning them into a narcissist and against earthly people. They just show that they care for mother earth. But , they cover it their shits with filters and camera. Not a naive over it but I feel it's impact old and young generation mindset .
@@cosmic2096 I am an INFP and pretty sure about it after looking closely at how my process of forming decisions works. And heavens, you sound exactly like me. Minus the parts of (guess what) judging myself for it. I do see what I can and can't and where I'm being a border or burden on others and don't judge, because noone is to blame for the tensions coming from the simple differences between us. It's misfit on both sides and yes, it's painful but that is all. An invitation to be with it, since it's an invitation to practice acceptance and compassion and balance. Now ofcourse it takes "two sides" to manage that and yes, often ppl will not quite feel invited to come half the way when - as a majority - they suffer the impression sth. is supposedly "wrong" with us. And like this we all lose the gifts we have to give. Since they require safe spaces to come to the surface. You speak INFx. I hear you and feel you. Also currently not working. Please be gentle with the part of you that naturally has to face more hurdles to find a functional working place that let's you live. And while you are where you are: Yes, please follow your purpose. Your being here by itself is encouraging for others to be there. For me, for example. We have already entered the stage in which a lot of people are talking about us and becoming aware of themselves, us, each other's workings. We're already way further now than e.g. even just 10 years ago. With every further year we will shape the world further. You already HAVE changed it for the better. Please try to let go of the assumption it takes anything great to do so. You can be an absolute noone and say an comforting "random" thing to someone and they can end up turning the world upside down because a detail in what you said or HOW you said it, made all the difference. And you may never know, because what they change the world with may be sth. like a tiny part that enables something greater to function. Take that weight off your shoulders, precious! You are already enough. Right now. P. S.: Plz check how your "not living in NOW" functions. If you use it as templates to heal past patterns or to form new patterns then you are living in the NOW and doing visionary homework to shape new outcomes for the next now. It's like simulation training and not like being stuck without moving anywhere. It's an actual skill (that um..... "normal" ppl can't really tell you about, I guess 😂 which is why we should talk to peers. Thank you very much, Internet!). U be OK! That's your first and most important job in life and the greatest gift you can grant to the world and it's godamn hard to just do that. You may feel stuck now, but what if it's you being granted space instead. Hugs for you from far far away around the corner! 🤗
INFP here. Married to INFJ for 22 yrs and counting. I absolutely adore him and I believe the feeling is mutual. I'd like to point out though, that anyone, regardless of personality type, can be unhealthy and toxic, prior to healing from their childhood. He and I had our rough patch for sure.
I've been trying for a long time to know if I'm an INFP or an INFJ. At first I thought it was INFJ because it was what I got in various tests. Then, reviewing the cognitive functions, I thought I was an INFP, but I 've realized that my Fe is strong to be an INFP. My moral framework is not subjective, but subject to the group. Watching this video I think again that I am an INFJ, except for point 4. I can be quite nostalgic. Damn. 😕
Can I ask what this means? : "My moral framework is not subjective, but subject to the group". Does it mean you change your morals based on what other people say? Genuinely curious
@@alexandra9944 No, not at all. I mean that my moral values are determined as far as it's correct in a society, is not individualistic and subjective. What I do many times is determined in how I can affect others. That is very Fe.
well, you could be 50-50 balanced between P and J; for example, if your occupation compels you to develop in the one you are slightly weaker in, thus resulting in a perfectly balanced P vs J -- and thus causing you to manifest traits from both INFPs and INFJs
Take the Michael Caloz mbti test. The questions focus on cognitive functions and have detailed examples. It’s great! I thought I might have been an INFP but I ended up with INFJ and scoring higher on INTJ, INTP and ENTJ than INFP.
That was interesting. My sister is INFJ. I'm INFP. I nearly spewed out my coffee at the abstract thinker part. She's the most literal-minded person I know. She's also the person that makes things go. We're each other's idea engines.
i used to think i was infj and my girlfriend was an infj but i noticed how we would see the same thing and have this same idea of the thing however we'd interpret it on opposite scales of the spectrum. last night i decided to just take the test again and it turns out im infp and that made more sense of everything. wayyyy too accurate with how excellent my visionary skills are. the way i sense tone and words and feelings to remember where i left my jacket or keys. the way happiness feels in the present moment unlocks this door in my brain to every single memory that made me feel that same sense of happiness before. happiness, sadness, madness, all of it.
I'm somehow having difficulties understanding my 2 older sisters. My oldest sister is an INFJ, my second oldest sister is an INFP and I'm INTP. Just sharin lol
@@shreyasiraha1235 yeh i know, twas probably 12 am when an earthquake hit our place, we were all awake, instead of worrying for our lives, we laughed it out and joined the beat of the earthquake and danced.
I’m INFJ and my one and only 22-year-old daughter is an INTP. And my mom is an INTP! the way we process things is quite different. INFJ can be too overcome with emotions. They are too “ touchy feely, sappy, embarrassing” for the INTP. The INTP is a deep thinker. They tend to be very private. They are often the ones with the highest I.Q. They are very selective with their words. They rely more on logic. We can learn so much!
I'm an infp, and I don't really care about rarity because I want more of my kind, so I can live more easily in the crowd. I love the character of infj's, I respect the way infj's see things, and their gentle qualities make me think they're sexy, which I love. I spend a lot of time alone, so I tend to be withdrawn, but I enjoy being alone, I have plenty of freedom and I have enough time to enjoy everything. I hope I can maintain an optimistic and cheerful energy, because infp can easily be controlled by emotions and become a negative person, I don't want to be like that! have a nice day everyone, please take good care of yourself xx 🌻💚
I have to have pretty stern boundaries as to not allow myself to get to a bad place, because when I do it overcomes me and is REALLY hard to shake. Life inevitably will shake us from time to time, and I never want to get to a point of being entirely adverse to negative feelings that I can absolutely not handle them. It is definitely a mindful balance as to decide what things are worth the negative feelings. Obviously, your mind is yours to decide what to do with, but I hope that if you find yourself having negative thoughts you are kind with yourself. It does not make you a negative person, but rather a Human.
I used to think i was an INFJ until I realized that i am not that good at arguing, my emotions control me more than I think, and i have a tendency to want to mediate a conflict besides letting one side be the only right one. While i am smart, I tend to be more empathetic than judgmental of others. I realized that the only time I judge people is when they hurt my feelings or they are being unfair with the way they are treating another person's feelings. I feel like most smart INFPs can get mislabeled as INFJ like me
I'm the opposite of you since I thought was INFP because I hate people and of social anxiety, I became more introverted, and N and F were correct, and I got a J instead of P because I do like to be structured and prepared for what to expect and be a bit more organized although once in a while I like to be flexible but preferred mostly in a schedule and be prepared for things
This video felt actually pretty helpful. My personality tests point me usually to INFJ or INFP but now listening to this video it seems that INFJ is more likely
I am an INFJ and my wife is an INFP. We feel like we're more alike than most couples we see, but there are subtle differences, as this video points out. Such as, my INFP wife has an amazing memory, and is very sensitive and emotional, while my memory is pathetic, I think more about the future, and I am not quite as sensitive and emotional.
I always thought that I'm an INFJ but it turns out to be that I'm INFP after taking a personality test. They're similar with very little difference. Honestly a person can be in between, since these two personality types can overlap.
I dated an infp didn’t work out I do believe that one little letter makes a difference at times in your case sounds like the E. We were both too introverted and communication wasn’t as good unfortunately. Currently married now to an ENTP.
Im stuck between both INFP and INFJ, and both Gemini and Cancer. Sometimes i find myself contradicted and difficult to understand. My ideas changed quickly and my decision making is normally torn into 2 very different choices. Having both characteristics is making my life overall more challenging as many of my friends couldnt understand why i always overcomplicate things. If you are feeling the same, you are not alone.
4:43 this part really resonated with me, because I’ve always felt like my internal emotional memories (and other regular memories as well) have a very strong visual sense/vibe to them, which was strange to me because they weren’t always necessarily visual in nature. Like a lot of “memories” I have are really recollections of moments of deep internal thought towards something, and sifting through my emotions and their meaning towards that thing. And yet they always seemed to have their own specific *vibe* in a way, and that vibe always seemed to have visual aspects. Idk, it might not make any sense 😅 but I do wonder if there’s any other INFPs out there who experience something similar
Yeah it seems like a lot of INFJs have an issue with INFPs, but it rarely seems to go the other way. It almost seems like they hate us because we remind them of themselves and that's hilarious.
I was an INFP a year ago and was shock that I am an INFJ now after I took the test today. I'm here to know the difference. I'm still attach from being an INFP 😅
As an INFJ I absolutely enjoy the company of INFP; the amazing theoretical and hypothetical conversations we have is time well spent, having someone to confide in about my emotions and thoughts is nice, it’s a good balance and helps with motivation.
I am an INFP and my mom is an INFJ and we did not get along while I was growing up but now we do as long as I keep good boundaries. She treated me like her pet project growing up.
INFJ parents can be rough and hard to please on the outside; yet they are always proud of how far you’ve come and what you will achieve. INFJs know how scary the world can be and how people aren’t always what they seem. Sometimes it’s hard to let youth learn their own lessons when the protective and nurturing skills are so fine tuned; freedom and self development creates individual personality and perspective. I’m glad she was able to grow and do better for the relationship 💕
If I may make a suggestion without knowing the situation and if you tried other things before already, but generally speaking: People are usually less inclined to hear your (valid) input if you come in with a harsh "tone", blame and demands. It's a door slammer, not a door opener more often than not. So if you happened to not have tried an understanding approach yet, then I really suggest that! 🙂 If you come in assuming they weren't aware why doing sth. is problematic and explain it, it'll be easier for them to express their understanding and to adjust that in future. Ofcourse if you already reached out nicely several times to this specific channel owner, then I could understand your frustration and choice of words. Please consider this a casual attempt at boosting communication levels from someone who happened to see you place reasonable request. I wish you a good day!
@@alexandra9944 I understand where they and you are coming from, believe me BUT it's still an ignorant approach. Not necessarily maliciously so! We do not know where they are from and what their knowledge is. Or their age and Internet experience. There are countless countries out there and countless people who do not know about the whole culture of crediting nor of the laws connected to copyright. I've often had this discussion and many ppl are simply not aware. On top we have a young generation of ppl being used to sharing being normal. The people going around talking about copyright etc. are an aware minority who have personal experience with this topic. When we talk to others assuming they might have no idea, then chances are, that they'll be open to learn about them AND they will on top be helping with spreading these habits. And hopefully choose a similarly careful approach. Meanwhile I have seen people be incredibly put off by getting attacked over something they simply weren't aware of and they partially choose to go even to opposite way because it's ALSO not OK that people get bashed and bullied due to making a mistake and not having a certain specific knowledge. Partially, because our sharing culture does NOT reflect these things. So ppl cannot simply make sense of it by themselves. If we want things to work, attacking people is the wrong way. It's a bit if a different matter when we already tried it the nice way. If we want these things to work, we cannot be the bullies! We have to be the kind people motivating others to do things for the right reasons. And yes, I'm very aware it's a high challange and there are idiots out there and it costs us a lot of energy. That's the price for wanting to install and maintain rules that are on top supposed to be widely known worldwide. It's ambitious so destroying our own efforts is extra unhelpful, don't you think? We've got to manage ourselves, too.
ENFP who’s been studying personality theory for awhile now.. and I just stumbled across this channel. Wow!! That was insightful!!! I wonder which type uses Si as a dominant function 😜
I frequently feel guilt or shame over things I said or did many years ago, even if the people involved are no longer in my life. Maybe I’m an INFP, then.
Okay... I know I straddle the divide between these two and tend to flip flop between the major functions of both... but this has helped me see that I am indeed a touch more INFP than INFJ... It's about a 60/40 divide. 60% of the time I operate as an INFP, while 40% of the time I operate as an INFJ. I definitely have all the qualities of both, though!
Objective truth? Caring about others more than themselves? What the hell? Imagine the kind of crazy world this would be if people like INFJs suddenly were in charge.
Objective truth, for one, seems like the one big issue if that were the case as while at the very most each could have similar truths, that similarity will probably be the closest it gets(not is in not considering the other's viewpoints, but rather already having strong beliefs and viewpoints after careful consideration) These other points are a bit of a whim, so don't take it too seriously, but it doesn't really feel like an INFJ would really want that kind of role anyways and deciding the more complex roles of a nation/country would certainly be enough even without the roles that conflicts outside of wars would be(this is if those being the leaders of nation/countries truly did have proper control of their military as violence would probably still exist)
@@nameynamd9212 Objective truth is like perfection, it's a pursuit, not a destination. Objective truth is the striving for excellence in thought, and a worthy goal that hones people's critical thinking and incentivizes the recognition and correction of biases. The person themselves is not required to be purely objective, they have peers whose task it is to correct their errors-just as in any science. Those that choose to eschew the pursuit of objective truth should not be bothered with, as they've already disqualified themselves by virtue of disinterest.
@@cynthiajohnson9412 It would be a crazy world, but the only thing that would immediately change are the leaders, it would be up to those same leaders to bring change to the world and how they deal with conflict
I'm Vietnamese and I took the MBTI test in both Vietnamese and English. But for some reasons my MBTI in Vietnamese is INFP and the English one is INFJ. Tbh I feel like I'm both of them so I don't really sure what is my true MBTI. The only thing I know is those tests are completely different. I think the English one is more accurate though.
Socionics Model G shows that as INFJs get healthier, they look more like ISFJs in public and ESFJs in private. Whereas as INFPs get healthier, they look more like INTJs in public and ENTPs in private.
I honestly still can't tell what I am the first time I ever took the personality test it said I was an INFJ, it actually made a lot of sense it seem to describe how I am very well. But now when I take the test it says I'm an INFP, I'm not sure they both kinda describe how I am like I got bits and pieces of both. It's like I kinda float between the 2, but you can only be 1.
Same, though I think I'm fine with being in between the two, in the end these personalities are just speculations. There is no right or wrong since we all differ and devolop as we go through time and different experiences.
@@RH-xd3um yeah that's true. I feel like my life experiences has shaped me into who I am I just so happened to fall into that personality type. I don't let it define who I am. I still just describe myself as an INFJ because it made the most sense to me. It makes me happy because it did help me to better understanding my self, and make me more happy with being myself. I like your anime profile picture.
@Ipsita Chatteejee yes pretty much. I don't always read everyone's feelings. But I can usually see subtle things when people are sad. I can kinda tell even when their trying to put on a happy front. I don't really mind. If I can help some body through their issues then I don't mind seeing it. It depends though I don't always want to get a sense of someone's feelings.
@Ipsita Chatteejee maybe I am one but I'm still not sure. I guess INFJ and INFP can more inclined to empathetic. All I know is that you feel kinda different being one of those personality types. Question Do INFP or INFJ have more of a knack helping people with their problems?
As an infj i hate pain and gult so i do not like the past. I hate seeing things the way it used to be so i try to avoid anything painful. My sister put up all her kid's pictures on the wall after the grown kid passed and i could not understand it, i would have to take the pictures down as to avoid the pain until i could handle it. Those pictures made her feel good but they would of brought me so much pain i would lost my mind.
Are INFPs better than INFJs? INFPs score much higher on honesty and authenticity than the INFJ personality type. More likely to speak your mind and share your own feelings, even when they disagree with or hurt the feelings of others. You will be real with people and will share problems you have with another person. Even if it might cause conflict.
I'm an infp yet I don't feel like I cling to the past ? Like I'm genuinely excited for the future and I don't like to think of Bad things related to the past. I'd rather think of imaginary things.
any infp who also loves being an infp here?
Ofcourse 😊 with struggles and all. I still wouldn't want to trade for the challanges of other types. After all I'm equipped for mine better than for theirs 😉
Yes i like being a infp but i can also not like a few things about it
But ya know after all, im just here existing so meh i cant do anything about it
Also my best friend is a istj and he a good buddy
Meeeeee I love it!
Infj here
I'm happy that im INFP🥂
The only thing I know is that INFJs love INFPs
hmmm, could it be becus our (INFP) extraverted intuition tends to manifest in a way similar to extraverted sensing? but at the same time we're so similar, so there's a sense of safe familiarity?
@Brittany Frana It goes both ways 😅.
I have a INFP friend (and I’m an INFJ). Of course I like her, but I don’t think we have a special bond. She’s a little too similar to me. When she gives me advice I feel like I’m having a conversation with myself. ENFPs on the other hand - I always click with them immediately.
Haha and infps love infjs. My bestie is an infj and our friendship is so precious. Love you infjs :") -infp
correct :) Yet, The INFP is as Always Par
INFJ - When there is a drop of a teardrop and there will be a ripple effects
INFP - When there is a ripple effects and there must be a teardrop dropped
Logic vs imagination
Oop

I can only cry when the emotion to cry is felt, you can cry all day long in front of me and if i dont feel it well i just feel guilt for not sharing your grief and wonder whats wrong with me and start to worry about myself. Im infj.
@@Angel-gb9gi Same!! I've had quite a lot problems with crying, I can't easily cry Even if I want to. Whereas my INFP sister can just easily let her feelings out really well.. ~INFJ
My brother is an INFJ and I am an INFP. When I tell my brother my dreams he somehow knows what I need to do to get it done. When my brother faces a challenge, I know how to inspire him to never give up. We get a lot done together.
🥺 that's really sweet
Haha, my sister is an INFJ and I'm the brother INFP. We get along like peanut butter and jelly.
I am an INFP and I was surprised when the visual memory was mentioned. It was one of things that I find bizarre to myself because even the things that happened to me years ago seems like yesterday for it appears vividly on my mind. But on the other hand, I usually have some trouble remembering things/events that didn't really register to me or I ain't had a certain attachment to.
Yeah this. Here I am desperately trying to remember mundane things or things that I know are important but don't feel are important. Like names 😭 I can remember what energy, what body language a person had and what story they told (if it's deep) but I can't tell their name even after meeting them several times and let's not start talking about things like hair cuts or colors or clothes 😂. But then I'll go and vividly remember what that rain drop looked like jumping across hot spring water with HD sound and skin feeling and smell and all. Or hear and feel upon remembering the voice of a person I really adore and I'll feel the vibration of their voice sink into my bones although they're not there at all. 🤯 Brain! I luv u but u so impractical, I can't!!!!
Brooo a felt that part to another level
@@KxNOxUTA Bro but in my case if its important things like my homework or stuff like that then i forget but if its things like that one day my friend fell on a motorcycle and we laughed it off for 10 minutes straight type of thing then i do remember it even of it was years ago and very well detailed
@@speedyboi349 That's the point. To our brains homework most of the times doesn't register as "important" at all unless it's a subject or teacher we care for. 😅 And the truth is: As nice as school materials are, a ton of it is indeed not overly useful in life. It's too specific. We are the types needing more brief exposure to many things AND constant exposure to methods over content. E.g.: "how to learn" methods over "materials to learn" and "How to pursue interests" versus "You must learn all of that down to detail or you're a bad student".
And for us, memories of little things do mean the world. They're psychological pin-points that will safe, teach (or really hinder) us throughout our lives 😂.
P.S.: it's "sis", dear! "sis" 😋
@@KxNOxUTA I learned more one week on a motorcycle than one year in school
Motorcycles teached me discipline(kinda), responsibility and how nasty yet good can the world be
School puts students in a pointless bubble teaching you a whopping 90% of things you will never use in the future in stead of teaching you how to apply for a job or pay taxes or make a job resume for a interview
Cars have changed in the past decades, same for buildings, human behavior and same for politics but school just stays the same
People change and so should the things around them

Thank you
What it's Spacey? Sorry, my English it's bad and I don't know if that's an insult or a compliment lol
@@alejandra2 "Spacey" is a term that comes from the hippie generation of the 1960s. It means that your mind wanders a lot the way it does when you are on LSD. I find it to be an endearing quality, because INFPs have a lot of interesting thoughts going on all the time.
@@prschuster ohhh, thanks for the explanation :)
I am
Very spacy
Pretty sure I'm an INFP
infjs - the most rare type of personalities
infps - the most rare persons (because of the struggle of being unique creates something very original in the process)
I have both types and I'm rare! Anyway the % of personality types actually vary across countries! You can find out on the official website.

@@Hephzibah624 not to be like most of the MBTI community when I say this but both of my parents are sensor types (ISFJ and ESTJ) and I'm and INFP and I love ISFJs but I find it very hard to connect with them both because they're more traditional and stable and they find it hard to understand my complex nature and internal world because they're more in the outside world
My mom is a INFP while I'm a INFJ (Also one of my friends mom is like another mom to me is a ISFJ).
Every time I take the Myer Briggs test, it always varies between INFJ and INFP... and usually the difference of the J and P are only 1% - 5%... these are always close in terms of comparison...
Omg same here. Taken two tests so far and the recent one said that I'm an INFP and older one was INFJ. I can relate to both of these personalities so Idk.
Same as me, I took the test twice as well and got INFJ the first time and INFP the second, it's interesting
I thought I was alone! Wow!
Same here! I'm 51% P and 49% J.
Omg. Sameee
I feel like I'm borderline INFJ/INFP. About 50% of the INFJ features apply to me and also about 50% INFP. The more I look into the subject the more confused I get because most things of both these types apply to me and a few things in both the types don't. The only thing I'm certain about is that I am INFx.
I used to think that but then I took a more accurate cognitive functions test and realised I was INFJ and 16Personalities was wrong. I used Keys2Cognition.
@@lilrockstar8170 Yeah I figured it out by now as well, I'm an INFP. But it was really hard because i'm probably 55% INFP and 45% INFJ.
@@neobliviscaris3346 That's not really possible since they don't share any cognitive functions - you probably just don't relate to the INFP stereotypes and relate to some of the INFJ ones, but that doesn't determine your actual type. Not everyone matches the stereotypes assigned to their type (sorry don't mean to sound over-explaining or patronising, I'm just saying this because that's what I didn't realise before)
@@lilrockstar8170 Yeah, the thing that helped me the most to figure it out was to analyze my childhood and teenage years because you act more natural as your true self and haven't had any personal development yet, so it was easier to recognize for me.
@@neobliviscaris3346 ahh yeah I couldn't do that because I went through a lot from when I was too young to remember much :/
As an infj I hand it to the infps to remember mundane details like, "where did I leave the duct tape?" I feel I have an advantage to remember things with emotion like voice tone and facial recognition and happenings that were emotionally charged.
Yeah, Idk about that. I'm INFP and I might not remember where I left the duct tape because when I put it away I was daydreaming about a childhood memory or something. If I do remember where the duct tape was put it's because I always make sure to put it in the same spot because otherwise I won't remember.
With the memory. I am leaning towards INFJ, but I have very few memories from my childhood. Those I remember are quite vivid and have a layer of darkness and sadness. I remember dreams quite well and have often several and longer dreams in one night. In school, I had a really shitty memory though, which was a problem for me. But with music, I could play the violin from remembering the tone of the melody and how the notes went up and down. Couldn't read the notes for shit, but if I had heard the melody a few times I had it down. Whenever I remember an event/important conversation, I remember how the light was, what I was wearing, what the other person was wearing, my feelings, It's like remembering a scene from a movie. But I am also attracted to an INTJ.
Lmfao yes
very truuuee. i'm too forgetful.
I'm not so sure about that memory thing I might remember where I've put the duct tape at some point I can't remember which memory was the last time.
I’m an infp and my twin is an infj! We’re so alike yet so different
sounds interesting. as an INFP I also have this conclusion; so somilar yet opposites. what kind of way manifest between you and your twin?
INFJ here and I love it ❤️
Hi
Im infp 😅👉 ya know just chilling
👉
Same
Me too
I’m an INFP and married an ISTP. 🥰 Our favorite activity? Snuggling on the sofa, not saying much of anything, playing on our phones and sharing memes. 🥰
That sounds wonderful lol
I am an INFJ and loved how they explored the deeper meaning and motivations and how each Personality perceives the outside world and how such insights internally and externally affects their interactions with ideas and others.
You made me think that Myers and Briggs are INFJ!
Have to say, ESTJ and ENTJ terrify me. I am definitely not drawn to them. I consider them master gaslighters and manipulators.
As a infp I'm drawn to esfp
Fun fact: I'm an INFP, and my father is an ESTJ. I don't know how it happened, but it happened. Even tough I have an ESTJ as my father, I still don't like them very much. They can be very annoying sometimes.
had friends like that and when I came to realization after studying MBTI, I left. The signs are easy to read when you KNOW what’s up
I went on one date with an ESTJ, and felt certain he would've kept me as a controlled unicorn locked in his apartment for his own enjoyment of awe, if given the chance. 😆
Definitely in agreement with the terrified part. They want to own and dictate what appears to be a naive, vulnerable, sweet and kind INFP. The best minions, ever!! 😬😅🙃
@@Heliorhodonite Yeah N and S types are not really compatible.
INFP here and everything feels spot on 🤗
Some people here are expressing that you sometimes get different results on the test. These are just guidelines to understanding tendencies. It's nothing set in stone. People are in a constant state of flux. We don't do things the same 100 percent of the time, especially as time goes on. To get different results is a sign that you are balanced in areas are that you are developing as a person. That's great. If you always get the same result. That's also great.
That's exactly what i think as well!! Though... u summed it up better than i could x"D
Hmm, my husband is an INFJ and he is a software engineer who thrives in discussing technical knowledge. I guess that's Ti. For me, I'm not that much into tech as I am with art, but am still fascinated by tech. Honestly I think he is 50/50 on logic and feeling. I'm more 30/70 xD
I'm INFP btw
How relatable :)
I’m an INFP and it’s so surprising how spot on this is lol
Uhhhhhh I’m an INFJ and everything is true. But that visual thing is true for me. Reading, learning, memories, facial recog, etc.
Everytime I take the test it switches back and forth between INFP and INFJ. I don't know which one I relate to more. Please help lol
Same. I thought for decades I was INFJ, only to realise INFP have a lot of similarities to me. I did not get wiser from this video at all... I didn't understand half of it. I love order and should therefore be J, but with my ADHD I'm more close to P, even though I try to be neat.
Same... Every time I take the Myer Briggs test, it always varies between INFJ and INFP... and usually the difference of the J and P are only 1% to 5%... these are always close in terms of comparison...

Samee here
Yesss I take the test every 6 months and it switches from infj to infp
I feel I am judging and perceiving person at the same time. ..
Till now i was thinking of myself as an INFJ . But, on this patterns being judgmental over life is kind harming me . I choose to perceive with peace , instead of this.
I believe I'm on the end cycle of Awakening and knowing the insights of my true being.
No worry , whether I witness to be an INFJ / INFP
I'm sure I feel like an Alien.
What matter is how earthly and humanist will I make it , to this journey of Universe/Alien type.
We have access to all cognitive functions. So technically speaking if we practice we can use them all but the amount of work needed and on which parts, will differ greatly.
So what defines out type is really more about "Going by which pattern will be the most natural" and about which pattern we'll most likely return to when things are at stake!!
I guess the more balanced we are, the harder to tell your type or your dominant aspect 😋 After all the cognitive stack is just ...... one brick in what builds our house! (OK maybe more like the base/foundation of our house). But from there we'll havr countless other things shape us and shape what functions we train or are forced to train (in worst case at the cost of living, but short, because it eats us up being in a "fake skin" on the long run).
At the end of the day it doesn't matter. It only matters if knowing more about yourself helps you with embracing yourself, others and finding ways to connect.
@@KxNOxUTA thank you so much . Have shed more light on my type. I'm sure I'm an INFJ.
While I incited about the patterns , I mean I was in a realm of shedding old patterns and to embrace a new way of being.
In both way it's Sufferings and Bliss .
It's about how we make it .
One has to experience the darkness in order to appreciate the light.
The feeling of so much but not being able to articulate .
I always have to check my phone to know what day it is, or even the day of the week. That is because I don't live in today. I live in yesterday, in three weeks ago, in ten years from now, in five minutes from now, and in times that do not exist in this plane and which I will never experience. But I definitely do not live in "now".
Mf I feel like an alien. It hurts being only a person with this type among family , friends , relatives. No body feels for humanity and mankind around me . I don't fear dead , but I fear having to die without making this world a better place .
Confession - doing nothing in life , While I'm at it, freed myself from the belief that my worthiness is directly proportional to how productive I was are and the manner in which I hold space for others. My self esteem goes from ' I'm a big failure and won't do anything substantial in life " to" I have a glorious purpose. " Am i wrong here? Because I can't just engage with the world , because I still don't feel understood of myself . Yet, knowing Everything about life.
People are judging me over my addiction , doing nothing , etc
I don't fit on fashion , upgrade , social facades and materialistic . But I feel the soul of others , it hurts being real and ain't anybody telling what they feel inside.
Smalls talks , and gossip about shits kills me . I want those around me with Universe perspective, faith on Humanity, sharing life experiences , to learn and let learn from psychological to darkness path .
Well , if it's really rare to be an INFJ , it's not fucking entertainment . It's real .
There are people like us around , including me looking for type of own people ,which is like a dream come true .
I don't speak human , nobody understands the word I'm saying .

They just show that they care for mother earth. But , they cover it their shits with filters and camera. Not a naive over it but I feel it's impact old and young generation mindset .
@@cosmic2096 I am an INFP and pretty sure about it after looking closely at how my process of forming decisions works. And heavens, you sound exactly like me. Minus the parts of (guess what) judging myself for it. I do see what I can and can't and where I'm being a border or burden on others and don't judge, because noone is to blame for the tensions coming from the simple differences between us. It's misfit on both sides and yes, it's painful but that is all. An invitation to be with it, since it's an invitation to practice acceptance and compassion and balance.
Now ofcourse it takes "two sides" to manage that and yes, often ppl will not quite feel invited to come half the way when - as a majority - they suffer the impression sth. is supposedly "wrong" with us. And like this we all lose the gifts we have to give. Since they require safe spaces to come to the surface.
You speak INFx. I hear you and feel you. Also currently not working. Please be gentle with the part of you that naturally has to face more hurdles to find a functional working place that let's you live. And while you are where you are: Yes, please follow your purpose. Your being here by itself is encouraging for others to be there. For me, for example.
We have already entered the stage in which a lot of people are talking about us and becoming aware of themselves, us, each other's workings. We're already way further now than e.g. even just 10 years ago.
With every further year we will shape the world further. You already HAVE changed it for the better. Please try to let go of the assumption it takes anything great to do so. You can be an absolute noone and say an comforting "random" thing to someone and they can end up turning the world upside down because a detail in what you said or HOW you said it, made all the difference.
And you may never know, because what they change the world with may be sth. like a tiny part that enables something greater to function.
Take that weight off your shoulders, precious! You are already enough. Right now.
P. S.: Plz check how your "not living in NOW" functions. If you use it as templates to heal past patterns or to form new patterns then you are living in the NOW and doing visionary homework to shape new outcomes for the next now. It's like simulation training and not like being stuck without moving anywhere. It's an actual skill (that um..... "normal" ppl can't really tell you about, I guess 😂 which is why we should talk to peers. Thank you very much, Internet!).
U be OK! That's your first and most important job in life and the greatest gift you can grant to the world and it's godamn hard to just do that. You may feel stuck now, but what if it's you being granted space instead.
Hugs for you from far far away around the corner! 🤗
Look at your PoLR function and inferior function. Which one do you struggle with?
INFP here. Married to INFJ for 22 yrs and counting. I absolutely adore him and I believe the feeling is mutual. I'd like to point out though, that anyone, regardless of personality type, can be unhealthy and toxic, prior to healing from their childhood. He and I had our rough patch for sure.
May I ask what process you both used to heal your inner child?
Thanks
I've been trying for a long time to know if I'm an INFP or an INFJ. At first I thought it was INFJ because it was what I got in various tests. Then, reviewing the cognitive functions, I thought I was an INFP, but I 've realized that my Fe is strong to be an INFP. My moral framework is not subjective, but subject to the group. Watching this video I think again that I am an INFJ, except for point 4. I can be quite nostalgic.
Damn. 😕
Can I ask what this means? : "My moral framework is not subjective, but subject to the group". Does it mean you change your morals based on what other people say? Genuinely curious
@@alexandra9944 No, not at all. I mean that my moral values are determined as far as it's correct in a society, is not individualistic and subjective. What I do many times is determined in how I can affect others. That is very Fe.
well, you could be 50-50 balanced between P and J; for example, if your occupation compels you to develop in the one you are slightly weaker in, thus resulting in a perfectly balanced P vs J -- and thus causing you to manifest traits from both INFPs and INFJs
Take the Michael Caloz mbti test. The questions focus on cognitive functions and have detailed examples. It’s great! I thought I might have been an INFP but I ended up with INFJ and scoring higher on INTJ, INTP and ENTJ than INFP.
@@shaki8557 thanks :)
That was interesting. My sister is INFJ. I'm INFP. I nearly spewed out my coffee at the abstract thinker part. She's the most literal-minded person I know. She's also the person that makes things go. We're each other's idea engines.
i used to think i was infj and my girlfriend was an infj but i noticed how we would see the same thing and have this same idea of the thing however we'd interpret it on opposite scales of the spectrum. last night i decided to just take the test again and it turns out im infp and that made more sense of everything. wayyyy too accurate with how excellent my visionary skills are. the way i sense tone and words and feelings to remember where i left my jacket or keys. the way happiness feels in the present moment unlocks this door in my brain to every single memory that made me feel that same sense of happiness before. happiness, sadness, madness, all of it.
I'm somehow having difficulties understanding my 2 older sisters. My oldest sister is an INFJ, my second oldest sister is an INFP and I'm INTP. Just sharin lol

@@user-cm9kj4rb8d my friend did that but I didn't even feel it so I was just chilling-
I’m INFJ and my one and only 22-year-old daughter is an INTP. And my mom is an INTP! the way we process things is quite different. INFJ can be too overcome with emotions. They are too “ touchy feely, sappy, embarrassing” for the INTP. The INTP is a deep thinker. They tend to be very private. They are often the ones with the highest I.Q. They are very selective with their words. They rely more on logic. We can learn so much!
My 2 best friends are INFJ. Some of the best people I know. My mom is a pretty awesome ISFJ lady too :) IxFJ's for the win. - INFP
I'm an infp, and I don't really care about rarity because I want more of my kind, so I can live more easily in the crowd. I love the character of infj's, I respect the way infj's see things, and their gentle qualities make me think they're sexy, which I love. I spend a lot of time alone, so I tend to be withdrawn, but I enjoy being alone, I have plenty of freedom and I have enough time to enjoy everything. I hope I can maintain an optimistic and cheerful energy, because infp can easily be controlled by emotions and become a negative person, I don't want to be like that! have a nice day everyone, please take good care of yourself xx 🌻💚
I have to have pretty stern boundaries as to not allow myself to get to a bad place, because when I do it overcomes me and is REALLY hard to shake. Life inevitably will shake us from time to time, and I never want to get to a point of being entirely adverse to negative feelings that I can absolutely not handle them. It is definitely a mindful balance as to decide what things are worth the negative feelings. Obviously, your mind is yours to decide what to do with, but I hope that if you find yourself having negative thoughts you are kind with yourself. It does not make you a negative person, but rather a Human.

I used to think i was an INFJ until I realized that i am not that good at arguing, my emotions control me more than I think, and i have a tendency to want to mediate a conflict besides letting one side be the only right one. While i am smart, I tend to be more empathetic than judgmental of others. I realized that the only time I judge people is when they hurt my feelings or they are being unfair with the way they are treating another person's feelings. I feel like most smart INFPs can get mislabeled as INFJ like me
I'm the opposite of you since I thought was INFP because I hate people and of social anxiety, I became more introverted, and N and F were correct, and I got a J instead of P because I do like to be structured and prepared for what to expect and be a bit more organized although once in a while I like to be flexible but preferred mostly in a schedule and be prepared for things
Still inconclusive
One of my best friend is an infp and im an infj. Shes one of the person I feel the most comfortable with when talking about more serious topics.
This video felt actually pretty helpful. My personality tests point me usually to INFJ or INFP but now listening to this video it seems that INFJ is more likely
So true about the fourth function being something we admire in others.
Great video you guys. INFP here. It was Awesome.
I'm an INFJ
I have to know what's going on especially in my life .
Meaning and understanding is everything to me .
I am an INFJ and my wife is an INFP. We feel like we're more alike than most couples we see, but there are subtle differences, as this video points out. Such as, my INFP wife has an amazing memory, and is very sensitive and emotional, while my memory is pathetic, I think more about the future, and I am not quite as sensitive and emotional.
I always thought that I'm an INFJ but it turns out to be that I'm INFP after taking a personality test. They're similar with very little difference. Honestly a person can be in between, since these two personality types can overlap.
Nope. Dated 2 INFJs-still good friends and have good conversations, but really connect to ENFJ.
I dated an infp didn’t work out I do believe that one little letter makes a difference at times in your case sounds like the E. We were both too introverted and communication wasn’t as good unfortunately. Currently married now to an ENTP.
so what did you mean with the nope?
My mom is an INFP, but Im an INFJ so I can both relate to these facts but also I can back up that this is true.
This is the best video I've seen about this comparison
Okay I am SO an INFP
crazy how much i relate to all these traits
Funny enough as an INFJ, all my best friends are all INFP's
Im stuck between both INFP and INFJ, and both Gemini and Cancer. Sometimes i find myself contradicted and difficult to understand. My ideas changed quickly and my decision making is normally torn into 2 very different choices. Having both characteristics is making my life overall more challenging as many of my friends couldnt understand why i always overcomplicate things. If you are feeling the same, you are not alone.
I’m a Gemini cancer cusp and a infp
Thanks. You are not alone, either. I cancel myself out!
4:43 this part really resonated with me, because I’ve always felt like my internal emotional memories (and other regular memories as well) have a very strong visual sense/vibe to them, which was strange to me because they weren’t always necessarily visual in nature. Like a lot of “memories” I have are really recollections of moments of deep internal thought towards something, and sifting through my emotions and their meaning towards that thing. And yet they always seemed to have their own specific *vibe* in a way, and that vibe always seemed to have visual aspects.
Idk, it might not make any sense 😅 but I do wonder if there’s any other INFPs out there who experience something similar
Great topic, I realy like ther way you procces it but that loud high pitch music in the background tears my ears apart.
I think INFPs and INFJs have a rivalry. INTP/ENTP have a rivalry with INTJs for instance on who’s more big brain lol.
Yeah it seems like a lot of INFJs have an issue with INFPs, but it rarely seems to go the other way. It almost seems like they hate us because we remind them of themselves and that's hilarious.
I was an INFP a year ago and was shock that I am an INFJ now after I took the test today. I'm here to know the difference. I'm still attach from being an INFP 😅
Same except it’s the opposite to me, I’m still attached to my INFJ side 😭
As an INFJ I absolutely enjoy the company of INFP; the amazing theoretical and hypothetical conversations we have is time well spent, having someone to confide in about my emotions and thoughts is nice, it’s a good balance and helps with motivation.
I used to be INFP/ENFP, now I'm an INFJ!

Confession: I’ve tested as an INFJ numerous times and I was just researching whether it was possible to become an ESTP
My goodness! This is the best video I have seen in so long!
i clicked this cus the characters on thumbnail looks so good
I am an INFP and my mom is an INFJ and we did not get along while I was growing up but now we do as long as I keep good boundaries. She treated me like her pet project growing up.
INFJ parents can be rough and hard to please on the outside; yet they are always proud of how far you’ve come and what you will achieve. INFJs know how scary the world can be and how people aren’t always what they seem. Sometimes it’s hard to let youth learn their own lessons when the protective and nurturing skills are so fine tuned; freedom and self development creates individual personality and perspective. I’m glad she was able to grow and do better for the relationship 💕
I'm INFJ/INFP who had been diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome. I think it was a misdiagnosis just because I'm introverted and nonconforming.
I'm actually an INFJ before but changed on INFP of only 1% difference b/n prospective amd judging
Eureka! I got it! I am both! ? 🤷🏽♀️
As a school teacher, I can be more INFJish the school year and more INFPish during the holidays.
😯 wow
.... Did anyone else get Frank's Ur my Type app AD before starting this video?
Stop stealing artwork off reddit! Credit the artist who redrew that INFP character in the description box
If I may make a suggestion without knowing the situation and if you tried other things before already, but generally speaking:
People are usually less inclined to hear your (valid) input if you come in with a harsh "tone", blame and demands. It's a door slammer, not a door opener more often than not.
So if you happened to not have tried an understanding approach yet, then I really suggest that! 🙂 If you come in assuming they weren't aware why doing sth. is problematic and explain it, it'll be easier for them to express their understanding and to adjust that in future.
Ofcourse if you already reached out nicely several times to this specific channel owner, then I could understand your frustration and choice of words.
Please consider this a casual attempt at boosting communication levels from someone who happened to see you place reasonable request. I wish you a good day!
@@KxNOxUTA They have a valid point though, stealing artwork is just bad.
@@alexandra9944 I understand where they and you are coming from, believe me BUT it's still an ignorant approach. Not necessarily maliciously so! We do not know where they are from and what their knowledge is. Or their age and Internet experience. There are countless countries out there and countless people who do not know about the whole culture of crediting nor of the laws connected to copyright.
I've often had this discussion and many ppl are simply not aware. On top we have a young generation of ppl being used to sharing being normal. The people going around talking about copyright etc. are an aware minority who have personal experience with this topic.
When we talk to others assuming they might have no idea, then chances are, that they'll be open to learn about them AND they will on top be helping with spreading these habits. And hopefully choose a similarly careful approach.
Meanwhile I have seen people be incredibly put off by getting attacked over something they simply weren't aware of and they partially choose to go even to opposite way because it's ALSO not OK that people get bashed and bullied due to making a mistake and not having a certain specific knowledge. Partially, because our sharing culture does NOT reflect these things. So ppl cannot simply make sense of it by themselves.
If we want things to work, attacking people is the wrong way. It's a bit if a different matter when we already tried it the nice way.
If we want these things to work, we cannot be the bullies! We have to be the kind people motivating others to do things for the right reasons. And yes, I'm very aware it's a high challange and there are idiots out there and it costs us a lot of energy. That's the price for wanting to install and maintain rules that are on top supposed to be widely known worldwide. It's ambitious so destroying our own efforts is extra unhelpful, don't you think? We've got to manage ourselves, too.
@@KxNOxUTA Infp?
@@2-bitsampler841 ;D Yes!
Now I know why an infj is obsessed with my esfp best friend...
I’m a infj and married a infp. 10 out of 10 recommend.
ENFP who’s been studying personality theory for awhile now.. and I just stumbled across this channel. Wow!! That was insightful!!! I wonder which type uses Si as a dominant function 😜
Si dominant types are ISFJ & ISTJ
Every time I take this test, I'm one or the other. When it comes to percentages, I'm always very near 50/50.
I was an INFJ in 2019 and now am a INFP. I wouldn’t be surprised if I flip between these two for more years to come. 🤔
sorry but that doesn't make any sense unless you have dissociative identity disorder
I frequently feel guilt or shame over things I said or did many years ago, even if the people involved are no longer in my life. Maybe I’m an INFP, then.
This video screamed that I’m an INFJ 🤣
i once shout something stupid while our former goverment was visiting our school, to this day i still remember that shit vividly...
I'm almost 50/50! But the comment about INFPs having better memory makes me think I'm definitely INFJ 😂😂
INFP is the only personality that is like it would be a diagnosis. From my experience it needs and has the most explanation and detail.
I am an INFJ and my bestie is an INFP and sometimes we seem to be identical and sometimes polar opposites.
I still relate to both and have no idea what I am 😩
the fact that my personality test both came out as infp and infj
My best friend is infj and I'm infp it feels like the perfect combo
it is for friendship :)
This is so accurate it's crazy
Okay... I know I straddle the divide between these two and tend to flip flop between the major functions of both... but this has helped me see that I am indeed a touch more INFP than INFJ... It's about a 60/40 divide. 60% of the time I operate as an INFP, while 40% of the time I operate as an INFJ. I definitely have all the qualities of both, though!
Focus in detail vs focus in the big picture
Objective truth? Caring about others more than themselves? What the hell? Imagine the kind of crazy world this would be if people like INFJs suddenly were in charge.
Objective truth, for one, seems like the one big issue if that were the case as while at the very most each could have similar truths, that similarity will probably be the closest it gets(not is in not considering the other's viewpoints, but rather already having strong beliefs and viewpoints after careful consideration)
These other points are a bit of a whim, so don't take it too seriously, but it doesn't really feel like an INFJ would really want that kind of role anyways and deciding the more complex roles of a nation/country would certainly be enough even without the roles that conflicts outside of wars would be(this is if those being the leaders of nation/countries truly did have proper control of their military as violence would probably still exist)
@@nameynamd9212 Objective truth is like perfection, it's a pursuit, not a destination. Objective truth is the striving for excellence in thought, and a worthy goal that hones people's critical thinking and incentivizes the recognition and correction of biases. The person themselves is not required to be purely objective, they have peers whose task it is to correct their errors-just as in any science. Those that choose to eschew the pursuit of objective truth should not be bothered with, as they've already disqualified themselves by virtue of disinterest.
@@cynthiajohnson9412 It would be a crazy world, but the only thing that would immediately change are the leaders, it would be up to those same leaders to bring change to the world and how they deal with conflict
The way I see it, INFP is a cute young witch meanwhile INFJ is an old handsome wizard.
Great video that has such a valuable content.. as INFJ I relate to some points.
My sister is a INFJ and I'm INFP
I'm Vietnamese and I took the MBTI test in both Vietnamese and English. But for some reasons my MBTI in Vietnamese is INFP and the English one is INFJ. Tbh I feel like I'm both of them so I don't really sure what is my true MBTI.
The only thing I know is those tests are completely different. I think the English one is more accurate though.
Just an ENTJ passing by
Socionics Model G shows that as INFJs get healthier, they look more like ISFJs in public and ESFJs in private. Whereas as INFPs get healthier, they look more like INTJs in public and ENTPs in private.
I honestly still can't tell what I am the first time I ever took the personality test it said I was an INFJ, it actually made a lot of sense it seem to describe how I am very well. But now when I take the test it says I'm an INFP, I'm not sure they both kinda describe how I am like I got bits and pieces of both. It's like I kinda float between the 2, but you can only be 1.
Same, though I think I'm fine with being in between the two, in the end these personalities are just speculations.
There is no right or wrong since we all differ and devolop as we go through time and different experiences.
@@RH-xd3um yeah that's true. I feel like my life experiences has shaped me into who I am I just so happened to fall into that personality type. I don't let it define who I am. I still just describe myself as an INFJ because it made the most sense to me. It makes me happy because it did help me to better understanding my self, and make me more happy with being myself. I like your anime profile picture.
@@RH-xd3um right they are kinda just speculations I feel like people happen to fall into these categories.
@Ipsita Chatteejee yes pretty much. I don't always read everyone's feelings. But I can usually see subtle things when people are sad. I can kinda tell even when their trying to put on a happy front. I don't really mind. If I can help some body through their issues then I don't mind seeing it. It depends though I don't always want to get a sense of someone's feelings.
@Ipsita Chatteejee maybe I am one but I'm still not sure. I guess INFJ and INFP can more inclined to empathetic. All I know is that you feel kinda different being one of those personality types. Question Do INFP or INFJ have more of a knack helping people with their problems?
Robot voice not helping
Shit. I feel haunted about my failed relationship. When that spoke about strong visual memory that was too relatable.
no escaping it, the INFP likes to archive everything and look back at it for info. At least you are unlikely to make the same mistakes again ;)
My best friend is an INFP and I'm an INFJ 😊
Dang.... being an infp sucks.... its part of why I'm so freaking messed up... I hate it
As an infj i hate pain and gult so i do not like the past. I hate seeing things the way it used to be so i try to avoid anything painful. My sister put up all her kid's pictures on the wall after the grown kid passed and i could not understand it, i would have to take the pictures down as to avoid the pain until i could handle it. Those pictures made her feel good but they would of brought me so much pain i would lost my mind.
Are INFPs better than INFJs?
INFPs score much higher on honesty and authenticity than the INFJ personality type. More likely to speak your mind and share your own feelings, even when they disagree with or hurt the feelings of others. You will be real with people and will share problems you have with another person. Even if it might cause conflict.
Infj is as real as it gets
I was having zoning out during the video. I need to repeat watch this.
As an infj I can say there are not enough stock videos in there.
I thought I was INFP, but once I took the test the INFJ results surprised me 😮 ❗
I’m 100% a combo between these two

I’m an infp and my boyfriend is an infj !
I'm an infp yet I don't feel like I cling to the past ? Like I'm genuinely excited for the future and I don't like to think of Bad things related to the past. I'd rather think of imaginary things.
As always, I am half like the INFP described and half as the INFJ described.
Thank you for your some details ( I am INFJ A )
