- Sam (ISFP) and Gianna (INFJ) explore the different stereotypes associated with their personality types, and what makes them appear similar but fundamentally make them different. (Fi vs Fe) + (Se vs Ni)

This was beautiful as I am an INFJ and my younger brother is an ISFP. We have never really had a conversation about deep things because of an age gap and also not knowing how tk navigate one another's personalities. This feels like a tremendous help tk build a relationship between us that we've never really had. Thank you! (I bet this comment will send your heart soaring!
It did! I’m so hopeful that you’ll both grow closer with time, try your best to make time for eachother, it’s the most important start. ☺️✨
Another INFJ happily married to an ISFP for 14 years here. It think it’s a very underrated match. Definitely has its challenges but it is so much fun! I really needed to learn how to have fun. 😜
miss nomer same here, but things went south 12 years into our relationship. His Fi really came into play there. He did not share his feelings and has such an aversion to conflict. 😢 In his case, his Fi became an impenetrable wall between us. 😢
Not saying it was all his fault. Of course I have my flaws which came into play.
Can you explain more in depth what the challenges are??
awe me too! 14 years in 2020
@@Eclectifying did the rest of his life have a lot of pressure? Did outside factors cause that?
INFJs and ISFPs are a beautiful compliment to each other. INFJs can admire and learn from ISFPs Se, and ISFPs can admire and learn from INFJs Ni
@Jonathan Oof hard disagree! My boyfriend is extremely intelligent, creative, and talented, and because he's an ISFP, he's the most intuitive of all sensors. Sounds like you've had a bad experience with this type; hopefully you can heal. My bf is both what I want (compassionate, supportive, easygoing, affectionate, etc) AND need (helps me live in the moment, helps me step outside my comfort zone, reduces my stress, doesn't sap my energy, etc). Type is but a blueprint of an individual -- there is so much more to a person.
@Jonathan You sound Typical like a Guy that want to by Smart but it is not and therefore speak bullshit expertises to Humans lol
Think you mean complement with an e
I'm an INFJ (female), and I've been dating an ISFP (male) for 1.5 years. He's easy to be around, a deep thinker and intellectual, and such a fun-spirited human. I encourage his creative pursuits and other interests (and I make sure to tell him how talented he is, because he doesn't believe me!) He helps me live in the moment, stay grounded and rational, and step outside my comfort zone to enjoy new experiences and adventures. We bond over our love of nature, road trips, hiking, cinematography and film, music, and food. We also share the same worldview and political / religious values, which lends itself to some AMAZING conversations and passionate rants. Our biggest challenge is probably the JxP divide and my need to plan things (hard when you live two cities away), and sometimes he's fine with a sensory-loaded environment while I'm craving more one on one conversation, but other than that, our time together is splendid. He's my kind, loving, steady human, and I think I'll treasure our relationship forever, come what may.
INFJ here. Just thought I would share with you that my spouse is an ISFP and we've been married 17 year's. He's my best friend, partner in crime, and some day's my reason for living. I can't imagine my life without him.
Your video was great! Thanks to you and Sam for sharing your thoughts and viewpoints in such a fun and inventive way. I really enjoyed it.
This guy has so many mannerisms that remind me of someone at work whom I suspect is an ISFP. Not that he is an ISFP, necessarily....
I also think we (I'm an INFJ) seemed to hit it off initially.
He seems very playful and funny, and also seems to want to relate in a respectful or harmonious way with other people.
I value almost nothing more than respecting others' individuality and autonomy. I want to be nondirective and hands-off, which also seems important to the ISFP in this video.
Unlike the ENTJ in one of your other videos, who likes to nurture others by "taking them under her wing" and "advising" them, I seek to nurture people by trusting in their ability to figure out their lives for themselves. I really appreciate that kind of support coming from other people, that faith in one's being able to succeed by being true to themselves.
Authenticity is also high on my list of things I strive for. Life is too short to pretend I'm someone I'm not, although as an INFJ who at times over-identifies with other people, I need a lot of time to process social interactions so I can respond with the voice that is most truly my own.
They connect because of the Ni and Se connection. My best friend is ISFP. No better conversations than with her... yet she drives me bonkers. I admire her for all the whim and spontaneity and confidence and her artistic flair.
INFJ here who has been with my ISFP for almost 10 years. They are truly some of the most kind and loving people.
I loved this video G♥ and totally ship you two hehe
awh, he's lovely
I’m an INFJ and my husband is an ISFP. This fits.
I could see in this video the challenges when the two types try to get on the same page and communicate their thought processes. Quite familiar to me.
Could you explain more about your relationship??
We are the most intuitive of all of the sensors
Charles Benson and a beautiful type of personality when healthy
@@ChantelStays That's redundant. All types are beautiful when healthy.
Ahh such a great dynamic between you to.
i was thinking the same thing, they should date
Lasted a long time between my husband and me.
You guys vibe well together, and Sam seems like a very healthy, passionate isfp, coming from an unhealthy isfp atm lol
This is pretty spot on. I’m an INFJ and my wife is an ISFP and this video is our relationship.
I am an INFJ and my younger sister is an ISFP. I am very close to her even though i have other siblings in my family. We both like to share/solve our problems together.
😊😄
At 4 minutes: "I'm mostly concerned with hidden meanings behind things" was a tricky question because ISFP's can show strong Ni. I think many underestimate the strength of the tertiary function.
He is so sweet
Who needs sleep when Gianna uploads a new video? :') I've been looking so much forward to your INFJ x ISFP interaction video, and needless to say it completely lived up to my expectations (and more). I was so impressed by Sam's insights and how many of the stereotypes he got right! I also loved to hear about your different perspectives, and I just love that you do these interaction videos, that show how amazing all of the types are :) Thank you guys for making my night!
You are so beautiful Ida! Thank you for appreciating every type of person! ✨
Such a good talk! He does seem to have developed his intuition indeed. He seem.. Like a very nice guy to put it short!
You and your energy is just blissful :)
What a wonderful and authentic friendship! It was so interesting to see how you guys were similar in some areas, but quote different in others. Awesome vid Gia! Glad you found a friend like Sam! :)
Thank you Susie! Im so glad you enjoyed the video 💛
About the comment "you're an incredibly mature ISFP". That's one way we are misunderstood, I think. I do act goofy, but it's to balance out the deeper side of me (rolling my eyes here at my own cheesy comment). A good example of this is that song lyric "shove me into shallow water before I get too deep..."
I meant to describe his maturity in his function development, ISFPs are in no way less mature in personality than others. Maturity comes down to the individual, not a type as a whole. If anything they're a type that's more comfortable showing how dynamic they are (outwardly) than others :)
@@GiannaDianthee aw thanks for clearing that up i didnt realise u meant about the functions :) its great u can apreciate all types :) and ye i can see how ni would naturally develop behind the others in an isfp..like all types the third wont be the strongest. isfp here. my mum and brother are infj so its interesting to hear your thoughts. Also great video in general!! V interesting
I love me some Edie Brickell, great reference!
When he got that one wrong, he acted very ISFP-y lol it’s very like me hahaha.
So umm... Are y'all going to date or nah???
i taught they are dating
I was thinking about the same thing
ISFP here with one of my closest friends being an INFJ. At least I've typed her as INFJ and am pretty confident it fits. We seem to have very interesting, often similar views on the world. We also seem to have complementary insights into how people think and stuff.
One difference is that she has very exacting standards of people which if not met mean she is unlikely to let them get that close to her. I tend to let the good I see in people help me get past the issues and often give people the benefit of the doubt. The difficulty for me is that I am often a little too generous in this regard and some might say I let people walk over me a little although I'd say that's slightly missing the point and that I am happy in myself and enjoy sharing that. The difficulty for her is that she often struggles to be happy in the company of anyone because it is very hard for anyone to meet her standards and the people who seem to May only be a facade.
Another issue I have is that I can't plan in the future while she has already planned the next 60 years of her life it seems
Wow that is so deep
I have that problem to i dont like anyone to be a friend of me only if that person have some standart but i guess a standart the minimum of it would be to be a person who simple can be a good company like useful or someone who understands or appreaciate the things i dislike about people is waste of time and fake people just go away lmao
I would love to build a plan for the future i have so many plans but when i learn the good of other types a door example closes and a better open would be my dream to learn all types function interaction and give them the best experiences best solutions to any situation of plan wanna so much gather friends like any type and to build up respect about each other to make hypothesis prove them and make life better
For me in order to be happy is to server happiness to all people full of my heart would be thank you with a genuine smile
Your comment was brillant and so true
I hope u have great life and i hope u to enjoy more fantastic things about life 🙂
-Infj my type
@@abetteryou4228 wow, didn't expect such an awesome reply. I like how my comment was a stream of consciousness and your comment also feels like a stream of consciousness. To honour this I am going to wait until another one occurs to me and then reply properly hahah 😊
@@jontiruell1934 thanks for reply hahaha np you are awesome lol that comment was very amazing
Do you like writing your thoughts or playing video games i love 2 those thing
Is very hard to be present i just learn school and uhh its very booring want to espace 😅😅
@@abetteryou4228 hahah, I am flattered... awesome right back at you for your reply. I like writing thoughts sometimes, yes. I think another effect of being an ISFP is that I don't like to be boxed in so I'm a mathematician, I write my thoughts, I play rugby and badminton, I lathe wooden bowls, I cycle, I farm, I write verses sometimes. It's kind of wierd how much random things I end up doing. I don't play video games though.
I can imagine it is hard for an INFJ to be present because, from my experience of my friend, her mind is working overtime trying to analyse and categorise people and figure out if they are fake and a waste of time I guess. She also studies philosophy which I guess goes with that. What area of the world are you from? Also, what do you find your mind wanders to when you should be studying?
@@jontiruell1934 im so sorry i didnt reply for a long i didnt get the notification 😅
Im from albania a small country which is very diverse
Im a good student but i really hate the time of studying xD only if it is something new like i never thought about it i enjoy the process but learning its so beatiful when you have genuine interest and with other people share ideas and be respect each other i wander example what this information means and how can connect to what i know and how can i use it because as more you know the more is easy to learn other stuff :p
For me im a lazy person who just wants to build things like robots (which i really dont have any idea how people build robots and other things 😅)would be cool to invent something which can store our knowledge and to use whenever we want/need
I hope this makes sense xD
How do you see the future?
When i should be studying i just want to thing how can i get studying done as fast as possible to get good grades
Very hard time to be presented is true because and when im presented sometimes the reality is to hard to enjoy idk why XD but when people are happy i be happy to and can enjoy it but i cant enjoy it alone only very few things like colorful things making bubble soap XD
You're so adorable together.
I am an isfp and I am much more attracted to an infj than the esfj Myers Briggs tries to shove down my throat. You infj personalities are a god sent.
I'm an INFJ and close friends are also ISFPs.
thank you for this video!!!!! For the last couple of years I'd identified as INFJ, but I guess there were a few certain things that just weren't sitting right with me, so I retook the MBTI test this morning and discovered I'm actually an ISFP, It's definitely down to how I express myself that has made me realise I'm much more of a creative minded, constantly improving, pushing social norms, living in the now type of person. So thanks for solidifying my thoughts :)
Oh amazing! I’m so glad I was able to help bring clarity. Thank you for sharing Rachael ☺️✨
Haha what is it with ISFPs testing as INFJs?! I thought I was INFJ for ages and ISFP makes so much more sense 🌈🌸
Yes another vegan INFJ! And my best friend/ soulmate is an ISFP. I love how our personalities compliment each other and he is truly the sweetest person.
He likes you huh!!!!! The way he looks at you.. is deep
I've spent quite some time reading about MBTI and i believe I am ISFP ....... i have previously thought myself to be infj...... tests shows me my functions in this order: Fi, Ni, Se.... (more Ni than Se...) Nice video :)
I was really torn between typing myself as an INFJ or ISFP, and watching you guys talk this out helped so much! Definitely an INFJ. Thank you!
I'm an ISFP and want to know more about it since it seems to nail my personality to a T. But in the process of learning I do feel boxed in as though every letter description is rigid and unyielding, telling me how I have to be. Life, for me at least, is much more fluid and less linear. And I do understand that in order to understand the different types, you have to put characteristics in categories and talk about them, but it makes me feel nervous somehow, like this is how I'm expected to be. I don't want to feel that restraint but be free to be who I am, and if I act just like the profile says I do, it's all good because it happened genuinely, not affectively.
It's so important for any personality theory to be a catalyst for self-reflection and to not have it define or restrict you in anyway. It's absolutely what you make of it, for me it's been like a little template for me valuing and holding space for others differences. People are so complex and exhibit traits beyond their mbti type so what you feel makes complete sense. x
I think that's common for us ISFP's. I'm a male ISFP and after my INFJ wife started deep diving into personality traits, it took me a while to buy into it. I felt like it was a label somebody want to put on me. Perhaps like you described it made me feel boxed in like I had to buy into it. But not til I knew I needed to understand her passion for these traits did I decide to dive in on my own and on my own time. Once I did I was amazed at the similarities behind these personality traits, they really matched both our types very well. I liked my new label of ISFP-T so much, I was really nervous to retest. I felt anxiety like what if this trait match I found and like so much, changes if I retest. I went ahead and did a retest on a different site that struck my interest, the questions were a bit different. I was so nervous to see the results but stunned and very pleased that I am indeed still an ISFP. I knew my INFJ like the back of my hand cause that's what us ISFP are also good at but knowing her personality traits more in depth explains so much. I feel it makes our relationship even better, she understand me a lot more as well. Love the video, I hope you two are still together.
Girl you are so smart and intuitive
I know so many isfp infj relationships
Gianna ... also wanted to say, you are stunning. Such charm and warmth and that little dimple
You’re so sweet! thank you ☺️✨
WOAH... You mentioned you were vegan? I find that fascinating because I'm vegan as well! I type as INFJ and I feel like the Cognitive functions and description does fit. I also really appreciate how you added random things like "Facial mirroring" and things like that as well.
Yes I am! There’s definitely a few of us out there, it’s pretty exciting to notice! I’m so glad you like my little edits 🙂 x
3:22 but you don’t want to box in an INFJ either
He's soooo sweet😊
I enjoyed every second of this
Hey Gianna! I've just found your videos and I love your deep insight on personality and the fact that you're a big MBTI enthusiast - just as me (ENFP). Great energy between you both!
aw, thank you so much! So lovely to hear from an ENFP!✨
Same, I'm an ENFP who just found her videos. Trying to date an ISFP guy, but it's impossible to find info on the ENFP-ISFP pairing for some reason lol so this is as close as I might get :p
Having recently tried to hookup with an INFJ girl, I can tell you that things didn't work.
For all the flowery talk of learning from each other, I eventually realized that she had not tried any of the movies/shows/songs/activities that I recommended, while I tried almost all of her's.
She saw me as a 'project', who needed to reach a level of consciousness that she perceives that she has reached. After a few weeks, I couldn't stand her anymore.
i have an isfp boyfriend and i would share with him songs, i feel like he didnt even listen to them.. im not sure but i feel bad that he's not interested in me or try to learn about me.. we're barely a month into the relationship but i feel so insecure because even if he always say he loves me, i dont feel that he does. i understand that isfps tend to open up or connect slow and he did tell me that he is slow on these things but i just feel like he's not really just invested in our relationship as much as i am. i really do love him and i know he loves me too but i still feel hurt. i really dont want to lose him either but i dont think i can keep being understanding of how he is...
It seems like both these "types" really care about connecting authentically with other human beings. (12:15ish)
You should do more videos together, very interesting!
hi fellow infj!
your videos are great ;)
this one here makes me think that i kind of lack an isfp in my life :D
soooo adorable
Can you please do more videos with this exact interaction please ?🥺
im an infj and one of my best friends is ISFP. we get along quite well of course
Beautiful video, love it thanks for sharing! It was really hard to hear with the wind, though
He sounds like Louis Tomlinson lol :) good interview!
This is so interesting! I've been trying to tell if I'm ISFP or INFJ so this video was just what I needed. Thank you for posting it! I am curious though- do you think an ISFP who grew up in a heavy Fe environment would develop Fe? Part of my confusion is I use Fe so much, but I think I use it in an unhealthy way (it's like I sweep myself under a rug to make room for other people's emotions, and I'm very careful to not hurt anyone's feelings). I really relate to the Ni-Ti stress loop, and have been going through something that could be described as an Ni-Ti loop with my story writing process. Can you think of anything that might explain that issue in an ISFP? Would one of the functions cause an ISFP to constantly restart and take apart their idea, and in doing so halt the progress?
ooh I can understand your confusion. I do know of ISFPs that lack self-assurance. They do care just as deeply about the wellbeing of an individual just as much as an INFJ would. Your upbringing would most certainly play a huge role in how you utilise your functions. I would really suggest taking a deeper look into the Fi-Ni loop which ISFPs experience as well as inferior Te, there may be some overlap in what you’re describing. Best of luck! I hope you make great progress with your writing! x
Thank you for the reply! I'll do more research on the loops and how inferior Te shows up in the personality. All the best :)
My ISTP husband is also very concerned about being sensitive to others. For example, when driving, he’s very conscientious about not tailgating, etc.
I only just found your channel. I really enjoyed this video as it was very informative and entertaining. You're a very beautiful woman primarily due to your skin which makes your videos very aesthetically comfortable to watch. During the video, I couldn't but help consider how you two would be in a relationship... There seems to be a deeply caring connection. I have subscribed. Thankyou for your wonderful videos.
Love these videos you do with other types! My favourite :)
i know an isfp and he acts like him lol
I (ISFP) dated an INFJ for 3 years. He was a good guy, but I was totally miserable as we were so so different. He was so introverted to a point where i felt he wasnt on this planet and so detached. I felt so lonely. I wouldn't recommend it. He was however very loyal and loving, but what's the point when you're miserable and bored, he would just play video game 95% of the time 😒... was would say he was an under-developed INFJ
Hannah Marie my ISFP husband plays video games most of the time that he’s home and earlier in our relationship it was mainly what we would fight about. I desire connection much more often. Seems it’s more of an extreme introvert withdrawal thing in general, some would say a maladaptive coping strategy. Could be worse.
@@Boogernaught ahh yeah maybe. I'm an isfp and he is an infj.
@@Boogernaught my boyfriend is an isfp and he’s exactly like that lol
This was so insightful! Thank you guys! :)
Never ever try to describe me, isfp. 😊✌ That "hmmm", I understand it. 😁
You seem very interested in him! He probably is enjoying feeling valued by you.
Only good banter
Infj here
Ahhh. How you look at him haha
so cute
Your top is beautiful, Gianna! Where did you get it 😍
It’s a dress! I grabbed it from glassons :)
Hi, do you know your instinctual variant? :)
Thanks for answering and have a nice day! :)
P.S.: love your videos!
-another infj
Yes I believe mine is sx/so !
great idea for a video
Hi Gianna ,
My name is Helen and I have been typed as an infj. I thought about it and I can how in ways I am but in ways I’m not. I want to tell you some of my experience to see who exactly I am cause I’m really confused
can you do one with an infp?
absolutely! I'm hoping to film one in December! x
Tulop yes please please and maybe one with an INTJ !!!!
"Would you rather...." is not broadminded. It narrows down your viewpoint to some stupidly arbitrary time-bound judgment. So yeah, it "boxes one in." Pointless silly fun, but it narrows one's scope, however momentarily.
iM nOt cOmPeTiTiVe
He kinda reminds me of Louis Tomlinson
i highly doubt he is ISTP. ^_^
Yea me too, defs not an ISTP 😉 and that’s okay if you think so, this channel is about building meaningful connections regardless of type ✨
@@GiannaDianthee Of course, this channel will be whatever you want to be and I realy enjoy your videos. Also, i have reasons to think so, but future will tell prbbly.
No he's ISFP...did I misunderstand?
@@Bonnie-sd7et yes ISFP! :)
