INFP males are an emotional contradiction. In soceity’s views, the traits of any INFP are generally identified, or stereotyped, as traits associated with women. Sensitive, caring, empathetic, etc.

As an INFP male, this is highly accurate. People often mistake sensitivity and compassion as weakness. The truth is, we are absolutely fearless when it comes defending our values. Its just that we prefer to keep the harmony if we can
Well said!
@Sandro Kecalovic Yes, we are never motivated by the usual notions of reward and punishment. I will not score better or worse on an exam if you give me or take away money from me. But I will be motivated by the desire to do what's good and right
truth
Sometimes i feel like the quote "Still waters run deep" was created for people like us :D
It is absolutely our strength. Us who feel strongly, constantly, are so well in tune with our emotions... And we can equally control them well.
I like to say "Would you rather want a trained, disciplined soldier in war? Or a novice with a hot head?" Because when it comes to the emotional stage, we are trained professionals.
I truly believe that most (if not all) INFPs are actually very confident. But it's a "quiet confidence". When an INFP walks into a room, they don't feel the need to act superior to somebody (which... unfortunately a lot of people do). I love that about us 🤸♂️
Well honestly that's why there is an I in INFP and I like it, the other side seems so cocky. I only act when it is a last resort to save the day :D
Once I described my life to someone (probably a therapist) as walking through a crowded room, trying to avoid touching or interacting with anyone.. or looking for that one person that I knew was "safe"
Well i am scared shitless to be judged and seen as strange. And let my fears get a hold of me. It is true i dont give a shit about status, i only care about people and their true feelings and thoughts all else is white noise to me but necessary for sure. I do like to joke around and be goofy when i feel safe with certain people and then i feel so much alive and truly happy.
I'm an INFP and I always feel the constant need to prove myself..
@@jmdeking well then grow up cuz
I thought I was alone. After seeing this, I found out I’m a clone.
Not alone anymore lol
Also, hello brother!
INFPs unite
Atleast a more rare clone lol
Hello past myself
As an INFP-A myself, I thought that being misunderstood was one of my biggest fears. Then I listened to a podcast that talked about INFPs and what the host said seemed much more real to me: (paraphrasing) “The INFP does worry about being misunderstood, but it’s deeper than that. In fact, the mind of an INFP is so vast and vivid and imaginative that it can be nearly impossible to truly understand it - even the INFP themselves get stumped. The real fear for the INFP, I believe, is not so much being misunderstood as being marginalized or dismissed.”
Those words, “marginalized” and “dismissed” ring so much more true to me than “misunderstood”. For much of my life I felt like I couldn’t have a say in what was going on, that my ideas weren’t good, or others would take credit for something I came up with. Do as your told, and you’ll be fine. As a result, I lost sight of my true self, my inner child. But now as an adult, I got it back. I’m much less afraid of being marginalized or dismissed, and I can actually stand up for myself when I’m not being treated right; and other things that used to terrify me as a kid are things that I can do now without even breaking a sweat.
To all my INFP readers out there, whatever gender you are, you have a fire in you. Let it burn bright. Own that flame, and share it with the world. You’re not alone. You can do this. I believe in you.
Thank you ❤️ I need this :)
That's sweet and yet so true !! Thank you
Interesting. 🤔😉
Yeah, marginalised and dismissed is a more accurate term. I could never really fit into groups unless I had some liquid courage pushing me to be more open, and even then it was a effort since I still recognise invisible lines around 'cliques' that i always feel ward off others and make it hard to approach people. I remember back in Highschool, After the first week, I'd already started grouping people based on what I felt from them. from some I felt discomfort and knew I'd have to avoid them. These guys went on to become the loud mouth headstrong folk with a love for rugby and football that became a grouping of their own. I spotted some quiet kids who I somehow split in two, the ones I could get along with and the ones I couldnt. The ones I couldnt were the ones who turned out to be hardworking silent types. The ones I could turned out to be slightly similar to me and we got along like a bonfire. These were the guys who later turned out to be into novels or anime, or manga, or theoretical discussions. Basically people like me.
This was years before I knew I was an INFP, then i read that we only befriend similar paople.
Preciate this comment a lot
Shout out to my kindred male spirits. Never lose your spark x
You too, Robin! 😊
I'm desperately fading away with my love life
Never. 😊✌️
Never 💪✨
Yea I definitely feel my spirit bouncing around a lot
hey INFP'S do you also feel like just showing this video to people: like ''just watch this and understand please.''
I just did to my husband after we had an argument about how I don't want to go out and party like he does.
Yes
Not this particular one. There's one I think called "infp in 4 minutes" that one I'm like. This is ME.
I was imagining doing this the whole time ive seen this video then i saw your comment 🤣
Absolutely, and to various people on top of that...
"They can have a separate mask for every group"
The fact that I joined 2 groups in High School in which they despise each other, one is a sporty group who likes to talk about football and the other group is a bunch of geeks who likes to talk about animes. I'm accepted very well in both groups, until of course one group finds out i was also joining the other :")
I think it's so much fun to be part of groups that don't like each other
One thing that I find fascinating is to see a person interact with a Group for the first time. Especially if that person is a strange individualistic person. When I was younger I used to bring my wierd "friends" or "acquaintances" to group activities, like parties and such. Like bringing a friend from the city, to a party on the countryside. This was not in a malicious way, I just wanted to see how it all folded out and how well they would fit.
@@Andreas-xy8vf you sound like an enfp/entp :d
@@Recep007 I certainly am not. Not sure if I believe in these personality "stamps" seems like they could vary from situation. It's interesting though. I'm working as a registered nurse and it fills my soul with meaning, it also drains me of all my energy making me isolate myself the rest of the days. Unless I hang out with my brother or go for a walk in the woods. I also play a lot of music. I like it except the draining part of work.
I had a house party at the end of senior year in high-school and I remember being told it was the most diverse party guests had been to affiliated with our school. I didn’t really think much of it then. But hearing INFPs described this lines up
“infp males are chameleons”
me: oh shit they found out our secret
*licks eyeball*
Mark zuchaberg is that you
🤣
We're really channeling our inner entp wit humor, only we're taking our time instead of coming up with it on the spot.
Most of us here are Infp males and I truly love that. Coming from a Infp male myself
You guys are cute
but really annoying.
Yet I find it really charming. - INTJ
@@MJAY-N7129 Hey, I try to not be if there's something I talk about, ill ramble for hours
@@wmoros4902 it's cute
@@wmoros4902 I enjoy learning new things, and expanding on ideas. Its when it comes to emotions, that there can be a limit
@@MJAY-N7129 Being infp is like being everyone and no one at the same time.
The not feeling masculine thing is spot on. I feel like everything I’ve been told about how to be an attractive man directly goes against who I am. I wouldn’t say I’m effeminate, but I don’t feel like a “manly man”. Even coming up in romantic relationships, it feels like I’m expected to take charge and impose my view on the world and others, but that’s just not who I am...
To act like a brainless matcho-man which we are the opposite. Conscious about our masculinity without having to prove to the room we are.
And since we don't conform we won't do what most men do to satisfy a norm...
Intj females have the opposite experience. I've never been a "girly girl". E g., if I like a man, I walk up to him and say Hi. I've been told by society that that is not how it's supposed to happen 🤔🤷🏼♀️
@@Naeinsengimnida Thats true...my ex-wife wanted me to become bold and dominating while I would never do that as I had seen myself the devastating effects of matcho husbands in my own family.
this must be the reason why infp males struggle to find dates, I believe
@@diananolte4433 That's wild. When it comes to something like that I would definitely just continue being you.
I'd have nothing but respect for a girl that liked me and was direct about it. Right off the bat that tells me she's different in a great way. It honestly baffles me how often I will catch the eye of a girl but instead of being direct about it she'll act like it's middle school all over again and spend too much time trying to "send signals".
The majority of girls don't give shy guys the time of day, but when they are the ones lacking confidence it's ALWAYS the "approach me" vibes.
The only thing wrong with not going after what you want is that not enough girls are taught to do it.
Your kind is rare as fuck, a guy worth having is gonna see that.
As a INFP male, I feel super awkward listening to someone loudly listing my emotions 🙈.
Yet am super happy that someone's said it.
We are so misunderstood, pushed, and misjudged because when ordinary people act the way we do, they're predators, or crazy,
While when we do, it's from true care and compassion.
What a struggled life.
Yet what a extremely beautiful life!
Happy and blessed to be INFP male! 😊
My self awareness lead me back to my room, I'm so sensitive, finding way to express my emotion and ideas. But I'm ISFP
Cringe
I was smiling the whole time. Everything said was spot on for me but I can be conflicted at times when people misjudge my motives. I can also, move between groups, but was/am never fully allowed complete integration, so having multiple groups allways gave me somewhere to go. Do you also wake from dreams questioning your reallity?
@@popsracer886 all the time!
INFPs are some of my favorite people. My son is an INFP and he is smart, creative, compassionate, empathetic, good at group projects, good at teaching people, and great with kids. I wish I knew a bunch of people like him. The only thing I can complain about is his room being a mess and his tendency to "my pace" everything...and I can't even complain too much about those things because I'm an INTP and I do the same thing 😔
Hey, you make me smile... MY mom described me exactly like that (even as a Child). Thanks
Not sure how old your son is but Im worry about him getting BULLIED. INFP males ALWAYS get bullied (from my experience, I’m INFP). Please be by his side and buy him food if he locked himself in his room. Also, maybe push him further to go to college since i feel like things usually get better there. I got a girlfriend and its the BEST THINGS!!! i could ever ask for. I wish your son the best thing in the world.
@@aruhito779 agreed, I also get bullied. It’s something to worry about.
@@aruhito779 Yes, I remember thinking that other people's children turned into monsters when my son was young. He was extremely popular with people of all ages except people in his grade level. More specifically, kids his grade level at church. Those kids were brats. A couple of his teachers were pretty awful, too. I really don't understand it, though. How do people live with themselves after being mean to people who are nice?
I do keep an eye on the amount of time he spends in his room with the door closed and if it's excessive, we take a walk to Starbucks :)
I'm glad you were able to connect with someone at college!
I hope my parents can understand and knows me better too. Btw i'm an infj:))
I really relate to the chameleon statement. While most people will say I'm a great guy I feel like it's very surface level. While yea I'm very sociable and open, but I still feel invisible. The only times I'm recognized is when I'm extremely kind or compassionate and I sometimes idk how to handle it so I just try to humble myself. Also it has made me a target for manipulation by people I use to trust. I hate this craving for romanticism cause it effects so much of the emotional pain I have. Whether its rejection or unrecognized feelings it just hurts so much. Its something I'm super insecure about because I've never had any sexual/intimate relationship at the age of 23. I just want something more meaningful and someone to comfort me. The last thing that really related to me is always having to mediate family and friends when things get heated and often being torn between them. It's so much stress trying maintain friendships when nobody wants to empathize with each other. Anyways this is a great video and I hope everyone else is doing well!
P.S sorry for the info dump! I hope others can relate
Your first relationship might end up being with someone older. I remember how stupid & shallow pretty much everyone is in their 20s. As an INTJ, I a,ways wished that I had middle-aged (or older) friends or mentors while growing up, since I always had the foresight to see the folly of my peers. I just wanted opportunities to learn and grow, and have interesting conversations.
Just keep in mind that we’re attracted to people who are of a similar emotional age to us, so as you expand the range & scope of people you’re exposed to, be age agnostic. You’ll feel a soul-level connection with someone IMMEDIATELY, if they’re meant to be in your life.
Wishing you deep, fulfilling relationships during your lifetime. 🙏✨💕
I can 100% relate bro. Especially at the romantic part. I have such this huge craving for romanticism and it hurts so much.
My ISFJ wife tends to say I’m fake or having an facade personality at times because I can intermingle in different groups of people easily and not seem out of place or uncomfortable. We’re both 26 and we’ve been married 2 years, love her and I understand where she’s coming from. I just have an issue elaborating my thoughts verbally at times. *I’m Working on it*
My god man, your response is true to the core. How much I hate that I love so deeply sometimes. The worst pain I can imagine.
@@unfortunato love comes naturally alot for me so when it's not reciprocated it hurts so much worse. My pets at least ease me a lot and provide emotional support, it's just tough
As an ENFJ female I am completely in love with INFP guys :) You are so lovely!
same. :)
Thanks - infp
As a hopeless romantic what are some of the cheat codes for an enfj female?
Thanks🥺
Shout out to my ENFJ sister 🥰
She helps me a lot of the fears I can't face alone as her elder brother. I love her
As an INFP male, I played QB my whole life. Any team I ever played on, I made good. I played D1 college ball, and got injured two seasons in a row and quit football. Everyone in my life thought I was crazy, but even though I loved playing, I was truly miserable. Everyone on my team always looked up to me, but I felt completely alone and unlike anyone else. Since I quit football, I started singing and writing songs. I was always scared to sing on front of people even though my family and close friends said I have an amazing voice. In the past 5 months, I've written over a hundred songs. I can make a song in 5 minutes. I recently showed my close friends and family my songs, and doing so was a million times more scary than being rushed by a D-Line. However, they all think my songs are gonna make me immediately famous. I'm so excited to have finally found myself after 23 years, and present what I can do to the world. At the same time, I'm absolutely terrified at how I might handle fame and letting the whole world know my emotions and depth. But I'm going for it. If anyone has read this, my artists name is NEX and I'll release my first song in a couple months. Here's some lyrics you might hear one day: "Chasing fading glory, burning chapters to my story... purple skies like codeine, shots for those who used to know me". Wish me luck.
Drop a link right dere 👇🏾 big homie
Good for you and those lyrics carry emotion and tell a story. Just remember where you came from and you will have no fear of where you are going.
Can't wait to hear your music NEX 🙂
Good luck!
Hit em, King. You've got this, and I know you do!
I am he, the male INFP, here to provide full validation and confirmation to this video. We truly are a rare breed. I cant believe there are so many of us in this comment section and I have not met a single one in my hole life!
As an INFP female, I have no idea what I’m doing here
INFP female here to understand why tf my INFP male friend seems so much not like an INFP
@@neranderthal there are 2 different types of INFPs. Ones that accept themselves, love literature and all that... And the other one is usually me;
Trying to act like extroverts to blend in with other people so not to be seen as a weird person. Cracking jokes sometimes, etc
This is true. For example, I'm an INFP-T.
@@mariaf9547 True he’s both, he blends in and cracks jokes but studies film and thinks deep especially about literature. Only problem is his heart is kinda cold, been cheating on girls. INFP’s are not usually like that…
Infp-t male here. God bless you all
As an INFP-T male, I had always been labelled as the weakest and the softest in my family
Same here. What makes things worse is continuously getting shamed for it.
As an INFP-A male I have been labeled as "do not mess with me" in my family.
Same except my sister
But when I turn angry I become unhuman
You're not alone. ☺️🥰
No damn way, i used to have your profile pic. I’m an Infp-t also
They are an ocean of emotion
Ok that was very deep. I love it.
Relate
An emocean if you will
Is that how "emo" came to be a clique?
Poetic
Im an infp-t. I been destroyed mentally and step on so many times im almost numb and dont take things personal anymore. But when it comes to the feelings and emotions about myself i feel very deep pain and hate.
Even though I’m only 16, I felt and relate to this a lot. I have been told that I am lying by authorities when I was telling the entire truth. Been constantly called gay (even though I am) in a slur-ish way. I would not describe myself as a warm person, but I am warm to some because if I wasn’t the warmth for them, no one would have been.
I can identify with this, 1 day and ever since nearly 10 years so I just numbed idk how or why hope just left me, and things got better, but I don't FEEL the same way or same things I don't enjoy anything it's just almost a lively black.
@@kristyderringer946 😊
@@mandemkat6452 thank u❤️
I really feel this.
This resonated 100 percent. I was bullied as a kid for being female like for not being aggressive and avoiding fights and I really cannot fight for unnecessary reasons. It's like lifting your hand for punching someone but looking at their eyes and imagining their pain if I would. Though you say incredible people but I have been more like someone cold who is nice but has no real friends. Thanks for your videos and insight once again 🙏.
one time in 6th grade, I "attacked" a former friend that had ganged up on me with a few others to tease me about my weight. He got a bloody nose. Guess who ended up crying? Yea..
This is incredible and I am touched by your level of compassion and restraint. More people should be like this. I think fighting is a waste of energy, it is a terrible use of resources and time. It is also a VERY INEFFICIENT way of communicating. Thank you for your efficiency and coordination. -INTJ.
@@masonb9788 💕💕💕💕 infp-t here.
This one hit home
@@masonb9788 I got jumped by 10 guys in 6th grade on the school playground for talking to a girl. Nobody was hurt because their intention was to set up a wedding. Lul
If you’re an INFP male and you just listened to this oddly pleasant robotic voice basically describe the fiber of your entire being, how could you possibly not feel good about yourself? I feel like this video just read off the back of one of those superhero trading cards… you know, the ones with the character’s bio and stats on the back, but the superhero is me! And you!
I’m an INFP. I’ve been looked down on and misunderstood all my life, but it doesn’t matter because I stand proud. I’m proud of the innate strengths I possess and the beliefs I hold to be true. Harmony and peace over needless aggression and conflict, check. Heightened emotional awareness and a sensitivity towards my own feelings and the feelings of others, check. True and genuine empathy and compassion towards others, check. Strong values and a strong sense of justice, check. All of those things and more.
There’s nothing wrong with being sensitive and having feelings. We’ve developed ways to be strong because we had to, but I suppose that was bound to happen because an INFP cannot naturally live disingenuously. The world is full of men who numb the pain of their feeling or ignore them completely because it hurts too much, so how can it possibly be weak if we were to immerse ourselves in our own feelings, understand them, grow from them and then come out of it stronger? And literally no one does this because it hurts too much. But we do. I don’t know about you, but that sounds pretty damn tough and manly to me. So many people don’t know how to deal with their emotions and so they and everyone in their world suffers for it. If the INFP is a rare breed, then we must live and love fiercely, reflect all of this outwards and shine that light where it otherwise cannot reach. I think doing that will make that world a better place 😉
Anyway this video reminding me of who I am just made me feel really kind of awesome and I hope you feel the same way too. Take care 😎☮️💟☯️
just how accurate you can go STOP IT
I know, right??
INFP's can be selfless, but not always. Sometimes INFP's can be so in their feelings and know themselves well that they can just have a goal in mind and then forget about other people around them. I have two INFP male friends and they can be so self-focused they don't think about the feelings of others unless it is brought up. I still love them to pieces though, I am an INFP female so I kinda get it.
My wife would agree with you. I have a tendency to get tunnel vision now and again. But she loves me still and that is one of the greatest blessings of my life.
I think guys in general, especially in more Perceiving types (as an INFP male myself) are pretty absent minded about that stuff. We are more likely to think “I need to go to the store to buy some more tea,” than to think, “I need to go to the store for more tea. What else can I get when I’m there? Maybe my girlfriend would like something?”
It wouldn’t be uncommon for us to go to the store multiple times because we forgot something for ourselves, let alone for others. It’s not because we are selfish, it’s because we only really think about anything when it is present in our minds. The moments we do think of someone else without being told are moments we actively put a lot of thought into.
@@kylepickus5712 The good part, though, is that if we notice something at the store that we have lost track of, it usually returns to our mind in an instant (like "Oh, right! We need that as well!") and we act on it.
Being an INFP male, I think it’s important to recognize being insecure and people pleasing…. Saying yes or ok when it’s actually deep down a hell no, can be a struggle. Please consider that balance when observing an INFP being self focused. Because, in the end who is going to really be there for you. Always count on yourself.
For me it’s gotten to a point were I do think of people and often find my self feeling guilty and really want to like to write to the person I’m thinking about but at the same time feeling myself unable to cuz like anxiety n shit. But yea then at the same Time you can be nearly forgotten from my mind for the next weeks or months.
And to add to that I often also find myself W/the excuse that „Well I’m almost there, I will write them eventually, when I feel ready“ because of the self improvement and I always feel like I’m almost at a Point were I can deal with this sort of situations. That had keeping me motivated for a long time but it’s also Damn frustrating. But I think I found an approach were I’m still optimistic to tackle all of these problems at once it just needs a lil time and space.
I still think you „just“ have to hang in there and you’ll find a way eventually dealing with the things you are struggling with.
If someone really did go through the stroke having reading the above I’m sorry would be kind if you leave me a message and I try to edit it to make it a bit more understanding I just fckn rambled way too long and I’m tired I don’t wanna go through that again atm but too much work too not put I out there at this point.

@@b.8082 gracias 🍃
Thank you
I did a test and found out that I am an infp-t. I have always wondered why people have told me to man up.
I am listening to this video and straight away I thought, "wow that is so me". Back in the 1980s before I became cynical, this was definitely who I was. Since then I have had to develop a hard outer casing to avoid being criticized all the time by the stronger personality types. Even my wife who knows me better than anyone else agrees that I am not an easy person to get to know. She says I have so many masks that I don't think even I know which one I really am. Discovering I am an INFP-T personality is so refreshing to finally know. I can start to become more myself and not feel ashamed of who I am. I can begin to let my guard down just a little so I can be who I am meant to be.
Does anyone else feel like you just didn't fit in with the rest of the world? As a guy, do you feel you related more to women's ways better than to guys ways? Take heart. That is probably because women are more likely to be INFP than men. Thanks for the video it has been incredibly enlightening.
One thing you said is that we are not overly angry people. That isn't exactly true. After years of being bullied and pushed around and treated like crap, I have developed anger issues. However recently because of Covid 19, I have had lots of time to be by myself away from the distractions of the world, and I am finding that people and their well-being matters more than my need to be right.
It’s a tough journey, but worth it. I found it really helpful to do NLP to re-evaluate criticism from others and myself, and to do a VIA-sure personal strengths finder so I can use those as affirmations on the way to work. Learning to reframe criticism using NLP was life changing as it helped me engage with the good memories and keep the negative ones at arms length so I can remember the content without feeling the powerful negative emotions associated with them.
@@Ratabulous I'm fairly new to all this so I think I will look those initials up so I can better understand what you are speaking about. Thanks for your advice.
My dad never understood why a man would be any different than his concept of what a man was. There were no personality tests when he was young. He was how he was, and it worked for him, so why wouldn't it work for all men?
I felt every single word you wrote. So, you are not alone, not even close. Thank you fir taking the time to share this.
@@michaelpasillas6106 Thank you so much. It is good to know I'm not alone. Have an amazing day.
As an INFP male, I realize that I need to forcefully lift those walls to take a chance regardless of outcome. People say that actions speak louder than words, but for me when those walls are lifted words are just as powerful as actions if I truly open up for a brief moment and express myself.
I did that... kinda... felled better about myself. Despite the changes that happened. Even if it's just me...
So true
Yes but it hurts so much when someone says something carelessly that the emotions that come from that feels like i cannot handle it plus the fact im doubting myself in what i could he doing wrong. Sometimes it just feels im alone on this world filled with people who dont really understand me or the world around them.
Hello past myself! You are doing better!
@@attacktitan6868 Sometimes you just need to let things roll off your back. I know easier said than done, but good friends toughened me up that way over time. Opening up the right people is key because those who actually care about your feelings will not take you for granted and guide you in the right path.
For me as an INTJ woman it was hard to read INFP man's emotions because of that wall.
I’m and INFP and my brother is an INFJ. We we are so similar yet so different, I love arguing with my brother
@@billyjones7061 really thats sounds great :D im an Infj
Who wins the debate you or him 😂
Wasn't hard for me
He doesnt trust you. You don;t know it but you betratyed his trust very early in the relationship. Basically if you wont love an INFP the "right" way they will remove your ability to attempt to love them the "wrong" way.
Yes, it can be very hard to read an INFP...we take a long time to trust someone enough to let our guard down, because we are afraid of being hurt.
But if he's still talking to you, that's a good sign...if we have decided someone is wrong for us/can't be trusted or is mean, we vanish like ships in the night. I believe INFP'S and INTJ'S are a good match, so don't be discouraged❤
As an INFP-T Male these are straight facts. It may be hard to present ourselves but once we get to accept and fully understand ourselves, it is really a force to reckon with. Thanks for the video! 🙂

I am an INFP-T. I am 25 and when I was younger I was exactly like this. But after learning too much about the real world, I have become very jaded and cynical. I rarely say I like or love anymore. It's usually I hate or f this or that. I don't care what anyone else thinks about me, how I look or sound. I just do me. I dislike how angry and hateful I have become but it was to protect myself from being taken advantage of or hurt. I am now on the path to getting back to my loving and caring self. I am trying to find a better balance and not be so angry but also not naive. Good luck and God bless to everyone else who is on this journey too!
Yeah, sounds accurate...
That's an INFP anime character 😳
@@med_essellami hahaha yup
I must say, this description is almost 100% accurate in describing my personality. It’s amazing!
I am an INFJ and all though I know INFPs so much, I came here for my INFP male friend who is in love with me. I just want to know every bit of INFP weakness and strength to help him recover his traumas as he's an extremely precious soul who sometimes degrade himself for being who he is and has been bullied to the point of repressing his kindness, and THERE AINT NO WAY IM LETTING THAT HAPPEN!!
Every time I talk or discuss with someone, my thoughts are confused and unable to show my idea clearly, which makes me appear stupid in front of people, but in fact my mind is so deep that it can't bear to think about just one topic in a moment
INFP-T guy here. So I would consider myself a semi-dark INFP: I used to be a fully healthy mediator growing up, but a toxic divorce and constantly conflict-filled household made me extremely cynical. I used to feel so deeply and empathized with everyone I talked to. I actually served as my family's mediator when they were all at each other's throats from about 5-18 years old. I think the constant stress and inner turmoil from seeing my family fall apart and turn on each other really screwed with my outlook on life. My idealism and need for fantasy/fiction has become almost crippling at times. It's like I can't fathom the idea of the real world with all of the pain it's inflicted on me. That pain over the years has finally brought me to where I am today: bipolar as hell and can't sleep because when I lay my head down at night there is a never-ending stream of thoughts and visuals in my head that terrify me sometimes. It's seldom that I sleep sober anymore.
If y'all got advice for me, I'm all ears. Lord knows I could use any and all help returning to a normal INFP status
I hope you find the peace, you seek. Here's a cool poem by James J Metcalfe
It’s Up To Me
I get discouraged now and then
When there are clouds of gray,
Until I think about the things
That happened yesterday.
I do not meant the day before
Or those of months ago,
But all the yesterdays in which
I had the chance to grow.
I think of opportunities
That I allowed to die,
And those I took advantage of
Before they passed me by.
And I remember that the past
Presented quite a plight,
But somehow I endured it and
The future seemed all right.
And I remind myself that I
Am capable and free,
And my success and happiness
Are really up to me.
Poet: James, J. Metcalfe
hey. I’m a female infp-t. I can relate to some of the things you said. I don’t know if you’re religious or not but I think you should look up evang Keyshunda e Boyd on TH-cam. Depending on your past experiences, your judgment might already be to not look her up. But she’s not like these other preacher stereotypes who are money hungry, fake hungry, or pedeophiles. I don’t know you, but I really want to help you and the only way I know how is to recommend her to you. Search her up on TH-cam by the way. I hope your life changes for the better.
The question is, have you gone no contact with your family (or at least parts of them)? Sounds like an extremely toxic place to me for sure, and I'd wager that you could find a lot of narcissism in there.
My advice would be to practice radical acceptance of what has happened back then and viciously write that off as losses. You have tried to mediate within your family, but it seems as if it has ben to no avail, thereby leaving you between a rock and a hard place. It may be difficult at first, but it is a vital part for your healing process to start. The problem is, it's easy to fall into the trap of rumination, but it doesn't really help. Dismissing it for what it is actually helps lift that burden from you.
I had to do the exact same thing (it became easier to accomplish once I found out that I actually am an INFP-T), especially since I have regularly been haunted by nightmares (if nobody truly understands you and you find yourself subjected to various misconceptions and prejudices, that surely takes a toll on you). However, after radically accepting what has happened back then and finally dismissing everything the nightmares suddenly stopped.
You would’ve been an Infp-d/ destructive mediator in that time
Your imagination will recreate these events like you were there. That drifting point between dreaming and awake is this strange area where you’re in control, but not asleep. It can be very hard to sleep when all you see is problems
INFPs; Brilliant stars that have built Dyson spheres around themselves.
Did you research Dyson spheres too??? And nuclear research, and the 4th dimension too!!!
@@isnc24bmusic25 Just kinda passively, I guess. I spend free time watching Kurzgesagt so I know the basic concept and ways we could make one.
@@officersoulknight6321 ah yes very nice
I'm an INFP and the best advice I can give others like me who endure so much beauty and suffering is to change your environment. I've been in love, sure; but the only way I was able counteract the immense pain and prolonged oceans of feels is to embrace change. Simply existing means you are beautiful and deserve to be truly happy. I know we see that as synonymous with being with a romantic partner, its our curse. I know it's hard, trust me. You have to push through and embrace change. It's your only salvation.
I am an ENFJ female and I'm completely obsessed with my loving, sweet, cute, caring, thoughtful, and strong INFP boyfriend
The INFP is a chameleon. This is very true, I found it very easy to fit in many different groups but never totally. This was due to my many different interests. I would play soccer, go to the gym or do combat sports with Alpha males, then talk about books, video games, religion and life with females or more artistic males. My friends became jealous when I would hang out with another group, sometimes they felt betrayed.
I never felt it as different masks though, I felt just as comfortable in every situation, I just felt like I was accessing a different part of myself and I am growing in that direction. It becomes a mask when you don't feel comfortable to admit that you also have other sides to yourself. The jokes and banter about being a geek, or an emotional softie, or a useless phylosopher, would usually come from the alpha group. I just told them I have other interests as well, I would accept the banter and laugh along while making jokes about their lack of self control due to not understanding their emotions. They could use that extra depth to their personality. This would go really well, especially because when they were feeling down they would come to me for advice.
So being true to myself and not feeling the need to apologize for who I am worked very well in these situations. It didn't feel like wearing masks, more like knowing when not to talk about certain subjects because that specific group will not understand. This was not a big problem though since I had different people to talk to about those other subjects. It was all about learning how to find the proper balance.
Very accurate! As an INFP male, I have been struggling a lot since I was a kid. I am learning to set up my boundaries.
My male bestie is an INFP. When he took the test and I told my brother (INTP who is an expert on MBTI), he couldn’t believe it. My friend to most seems tough, simple and confident. But he has a secret depth that few people get to see. And he is very sensitive, whilst also able to cut people out at will. I’m so glad that I get to know him so well. I love deep people (I’m an ENFP female).
I think INFPs are the best MBTI type. With their caring and gentle nature, I didn't think anyone would dare to hate charming and brilliant traits in men. -INTJ female
Well... as an INFP male I would agree that its very rare that I'm being hated.
But when it comes to relationships females seem to prefer men, who are capable of more emotions than joy and rage, as friends.
As a man I get the impression it is the worst type you can possibly have.
@@Zuiken2160 that's why you have to be more assertive. It's a fine line between being understanding and a doormat. If you come off as too nice, they'll put you in the friend zone even if they find you attractive. Unless you're Chad and Tyrone level hot lol
@@nostalgicbliss5547 Yes, you are right, there was a time where I tried being more dominant and assertive and I was shockingly successfull by doing so.
The problem was I hate acting like that because in reality thats not who I am and it made me disgusted by them and by myself.
So I came to the conclusion that the best option I have is living my life alone.
As an ENFJ female (the compatible personality with INFP), I think you guys are awesome. Just wish I could find one of you lol
There are quite a few on this website.
While enfj’s may be seen volunteering at a homeless shelter, the INFP would more likely be the one giving a homeless man half of his sandwich. The timid nature of an INFP makes it so they take pleasure in the little acts of kindness more than the large and extravagant.
If you want to find an INFP who likes you, look for the one who is always willing to help, but if you say “no, I’m good” they will retreat their offer because they don’t want to push themselves on you. They may leave you a surprise gift, but not be present in the room when you receive it.
If around an assertive INFP, they may be more likely to ask questions to you and about you. They will spend most of their time asking you questions only after preparing answers to those same questions in case you were to ask “what about you?” If an answer sounds rehearsed, he could very well be an INFP.
A turbulent INFP would likely admire you from afar, but when you ask them a question, the answer will sound short and abstract. Love notes from an anonymous lover would be common.
Also, NEVER PLAY HARD TO GET!!! Most introverts in general will retreat as soon as they feel you don’t want them back.
@@kylepickus5712 It's not necessarily timid (although it may frequetly be perceived that way), but highly sensitive to other people's state of being.
@@Robidu1973 I agree.
ENFJ’s are more likely to do grand things for large groups of people, because they want to solve the problems for as many people as possible. INFP’s are more likely to do spontaneous, yet powerful things for a single person. ENFJ’s may work out of empathy, while INFP’s work out of sympathy. This, I feel comes from the INFP’s deep-seated feeling that they know what it’s like to be ignored and/or treated poorly, and that they would never wish that upon anybody else.
The acts of an INFP are more intimate and personal while the acts of the ENFJ are more heroic and grand. Like Keanu sharing a sandwich and conversation with a homeless person is an act so mundane, but is made powerful because of how we as a society look at homeless people.
Look for the quiet guy at the party who’d rather pet the dog or the cat.
Ask about his prefered music, books, travel or art.
Then let him ramble on for an hour, and offer a coffee someday.
He’ll be over the moon for you in a jiffy ;)
I took the first test of mbti. I was so lost then, that i answered not about what I feel, but what i would like to look like for other people. My result was INTJ. I tried to live to that, taking it as guidelines, but something feeled wrong. That was year ago. Now I tried the test again, and i was honest to myself. My New result was INFP. And finally i found my inner piece. The description of my deepest fears, thouthts and how my mind works was spot on. I was really happy about it. So i did myself believe in my mask. Whitch i Wasnt and it struck me down pretty good. Dont do it to youresleves. be what you are. You are great at what you are :)
INFP male here. Much love to all you fellow guys and girls love you living and loving
"Make sure you don't let your mind trick you out of thinking and into feeling that something as small and weightless as a fishscale is a mountain" -myself, a fellow infp
This is so accurate in a scary and amazing way.
- INFP-A Male
I really appreciate this channel! Being an INFP isn't so bad as it seemed at first hahaha
It would be wonderful if there would be an INFP festival or something, and let our creative minds connect
Most accurate perception of INFPs I’ve seen
Holy fuck I’ve never felt so read in my entire life. This is all true. Especially having different masks for different people/friends groups and on a dime switching from being extroverted to completely introverted. This is one of my favorite videos now. I wish I had found this sooner
Didnt expect this amount of precision
The more I watched,
The more inner feelings I recalled
Thank you
No dislikes? Congrats! I am an INFP-A & this is soooo, word by word, relatably accurate ❤️ Thank you for this ✨👑
FINALLY, a video that I can actually AGREE to many other INFP videos. This is highly accurate. To the other INFPs out there, Be yourself and authentic. Don't listen to those who are irrelevant. It's because they DON'T KNOW YOU!
Every 15 seconds I let out a small chuckle as I realize your are READING MY SOUL OUTLOUD. Love this! Thank you for making me feel like I'm not alone!
Bang on. Best INFP video out there. From a fiercely independent INFP-A.
I am glad I found this after taking the test explains my whole life
I wish for the impossible sometimes for everyone to see each other's perspective and accept each other because I truly think that's the deepest level of understanding each other I know I'm INFP... I also know that I am cancer I'm talking about horoscope I know infp is a psychology based thing but I do think that they're very similar when describing my personality and every time I search for either one of these things I'm happy and highlights the good within me and the bad I need to work on so thank you for these kinds of videos
I'm a Leo so it's quite contradictory. I hope you feel replenished & refreshed after you read this for as long as you are concious & on earth
I’m also an INFP and a Cancer! 😄
@@JiveTurkey1618 l am infj and cancer black women l love infp men l wish to marry infp man
Thank you for this! This is amazing! I mean, these are thoughts that runs inside my head too being that I'm an INFP Male with a Psychology Background so I understand it in bigger sense and I deeply connect with the words that you said because they're just too relatable. I felt so understood just listening to this. Thank you for creating this and helping others in understanding INFP males, specially INFP Males themselves. Of course we have our own uniqueness apart from being INFP Males. I was introduced to martial arts at an early age and it's something I consider myself as having a better position than most because I treat the science behind the movements or techniques as how I would try to understand my emotions and being able to do this helps me in a profound way. Combined with my knowledge about the human body as well as my work as a personal trainer for fitness and martial arts. I think this is one way where INFP males can develop the confidence in being able to deal with physical conflicts. Verbal conflicts tho, I try to avoid at the peak of emotion and then come back to it after cooling down. Taking that time off or downtime to think and configure my thoughts and emotions helps me in understanding myself and others. As a 27 year old INFP Male, during this pandemic, it is sometimes a struggle to stay mindful of my thoughts and making sure I channel the inner workings of my mind to something more productive like working. specially since the world is on a pause and it is easier for us to be in our heads and simply stay there to be entertained. I sometimes feel like INFPs in general can also seem "Childlike" because of how imaginative we can get and it's easy to get lost to a trance simply by thinking. With that said, I think INFPs often find themselves floating with however life makes it for them because it's easy to be swept away with how life unfolds. So knowing oneself is very important because you don't want fate deciding what your life is going to be, as INFPs, we can sometimes be very passive in sense that we are always in our heads so it's really important to decide for yourself and slowly build atomic habits to act and achieve your goals. If you can feel and think deeply compared to most, you got it and you can figure it out! Cheers to us!
You said you have a Psychology background. I'm a INFP-T myself and I always was really interested and passionate to understand other people's behaviour and help them with their emotional problems. This lead me to being interested in Psychology aswell. I guess it's normal for INFPs to get drawn towards Psychology?
I’m an INFP Male as well. I’ve consistently tested INFP since I was 17. We’re rare, but that said I’ve met a few others in my lifetime (as a therapist, I have seen we often gravitate towards those who are like us). This video is pretty accurate.
Feeling so deeply is a blessing and a curse.
That is the most accurate thing for me and other infp males. For a long time, I curse myself because I cannot become emotionally strong with the others. To society, I am the pacifist because I don't fight much unlike the others. Thanks MB stories for posting this :)
I was shocked at how accurate this was
It's really strange seeing a video that explains my mental state so accurately. Literally everything is spot on
I don't know but as an INFJ, it feels like INFPs are like a twin to INFJs in some ways or something like that. And me being an INFJ really likes INFPs coz it really feels like i'm connected to them and..yeah
I feel so seen.. it makes even more sense that one of my favorite albums is Pink Floyd's "The Wall" - I basically started building that wall literally from the age when I first heard that album at the age of 12. As I grow older, I am less inclined to forgive people, but for almost my whole life I wouldn't have that problem. I rarely would even get mad. I almost make it a sport to point out hypocrisy in people. And yes, I will talk to you about Gustav Mahler for hours if you are interested. (I wonder how many of us hardcore Mahler fans are INFP's). Now I would say we are warm and connect with people but up to a point. Even those closest to me are never completely welcome inside the shell. I sometimes do feel like I will never find my place in the world. It's like, you know you have something to give, you know there's a place for you, but you can't ever seem to find it because of all the "junk" that gets in the way. I've been adverse to conflict my whole life. I will go to amazingly stupid, idiotic lengths to avoid it sometimes. Spot on.
F*** yeah Mahler!!! ❤️👍🏼
This was unsettling... How can this be so accurate.
Yes, at first I thought, wait, he doesn't get it. But then yea, he totally got it..
Wow this is what I needed. I wasn’t sure if I was an INFP but every single thing said in this video confirms without a doubt that I am. Amazing and a little spooky how accurate this is.
ey someone finally understands me a bit. Maybe i have some faith in humanity xd.. Nice video mate
XD I feel you ❤️
This was scarily accurate
I just found out a couple days I'm an INFP and it's opened my eyes to a lot of things. I know now I'm not alone in this world with this personality and that is definitely more comforting, for so long I felt flawed for being like this but now I know it's just my personality. Doesn't mean I'm not working on myself and trying to better my personality as a whole. Learning my personality type I feel has been a step in the right direction of truly finding myself and my full potential.
I took that MTBi test and it turns out I'm an INFP-A. I love the arts, use to draw when I was young then moved on to photography in my 30's. I always enjoy visiting art and history museums. I'm a Real Estate Agent now and I love architecture & interior designs. I'm about to start my own TH-cam channel touring homes in Northern California, there's so much more variety in Architectural styles in Northern California as opposed to Southern California. I hope to one day start my own movie production studio when I make enough money to shoot a feature length film. I love movies decades prior to 2010 when movies were great. The rest of this is very accurate, I hate being perceived as push over and not masculine just because I'm affectionate, like hell, I'm a skilled boxer and can hold my own thank you very much...though I do prefer to talk things out instead and use physical force as a last resort lol conflict is so cumbersome which is why I prefer to keep my circle of friends tiny, less drama that way and I like to limit my interactions with strangers and mostly keep to myself unless somebody wants to strike up a conversation then I'll talk if its an interesting topic but mostly I keep to myself, I like it that way...less problems more peace, I love my peace. I'd rather make money and lounge around on a beach than fight with people over stupid stuff unless there's some serious injustice and wrong that needs to be made right. I'm definitely going to use my money to help kids in my neighborhood go through college or trades and help them dream of a bright future. It's interesting because I've known I wasn't like my male peers so in conversions about masculinity and the male mindset I usually make it clear that I do not represent men in general I can only speak of myself.
A therapist told me that I should read Truman Capote's " Music for Chameleons" implying that I was such, myself. I eventually picked up the book at a department store in Amsterdam. It turned out to be a collection of short pieces with one giving its title to the whole book.
INFP woman here, needs an INFP male desperately lol
Wow! It was like they were reading my mind. Good to know there are other INFP fellows out there like myself. Keep asking people questions about themselves, you’ll uncover the people worth joining the inner circle. Keep working to make the world a better place to be, guys ✌🏾
It’s a little off to me, because depending on the personality test, I’m Infp or intp. I get both Infp and intps
I always felt off and it made me depressive. Finding out that there is nothing wrong with me and that there are others like me helped me out immensely.
You guys, I thought I had a personality disorder since I change my personality based off of every relationship I have. This makes so much sense!
INFP-T here and I've always been trying to change myself I just always thought something is wrong with me.. didn't know why I would feel so much or get attached to people or other things very fast... I'm really trying to just accept myself but it's kinda hard because now I feel so frustrated and stressed out about the future because it feels like the rest of my life is just going to be very painful, hard and just sad..I don't want these feelings anymore...I want to be strong but it's getting harder to motivate myself..
I know how you feel I’m a INFP-T female. Please don’t change yourself, you’re too precious.❤️🦋
I feel you, it is hard. But there are things to fight for, find your fire and find the people who see you for your beauty. You have a gift it is just finding a way to share it with the world and people around you. 🤗
Totally can relate
I'm a Enfj, please don't try to change. I have a friend who is a infp and he use to be that way but, now he just does things he enjoys doing whether with someone or alone. I love And care about him just the way he is. Just be you and do what makes happy.
As an INFP-T male with depression and social anxiety as a 1,89cm tall and straight guy i mostly feel like ive been born in the wrong body lol.
Most INFP are Bi-Sexual. But im pure straight. Which makes life harder ngl. Extremely lonely. Idk if other INFP search the love of their life like me but ive been looking out since im able to think lmfao. Being like this is a curse ngl
I have to say, I am grateful to be bisexual. I do feel it's much easier these days to find compatible men than women, even though there are so many more women than men to look for.
Yes, it's so exhausting to wear a mask every time and the need for a longer time to regain energy.
Thank you! This is a very informative video. I'm an INFP myself and I have a few male friends who might also be INFPs, so this video might help me to better understand them as people and maybe help them if they need it, like if they're having doubts about who they are as people. No-one should feel like their personality is wrong, or like they don't know themselves, so I think as long as more people know about the INFP male, then we can help them feel more accepted and relaxed about who they are
I wish more women could appreciate this. I was *this* close to start a nice relationship with a dear girl of mine but it ended abruptly by her. The reason "I have problems of what I want, don't want to hurt you while being indecisive on my way of healing". She couldn't be more wrong. Not only I wouldn't be hurt, I'd be super GLAD to help her with all my being. I told her that but alas. She just didn't get it. The worst thing you can do to male INFP is to tie our hands and make a judgement in our behalf.
This was so bizare. Like someone has been taking notes of me for the last decade. Escpecially the parts about wearing different masks, being stubborn and disliking conflict
I know a guy at work... I'm a female infp... and as soon as we met it felt like a spark hit. He was born the day before me and he's only recently started opening up to me...
I've made it my goal to poke at that shell in as positive a way as I can. I want to see what lies beneath so I like surprising him with gifts and seeing his light shine through when he laughs. I am so sure he's an infp as well. Since I've met him he's inspired me to try my best at what I can without saying anything... and I hope that's mutual.
He recently told me he used to have his heart on his sleeve after I complimented his temperament... and it broke my heart a little.
As a INTP living with an INFP man I can tell this is so true.
This dude just described my whole personality
So accurate.
-From an INFP male
Thank you, that's me :)
I took the test and now I'm here ✊🏾✅
INFP -T male here. I agree with this video, especially about the part with indecision and going against certain masculine norms
As an infp 27 and still feel lost in life i find it hard to fit into to anything
Glad I found this! Now I can send it to the three people in my inner circle so they can ignore it because it’s longer than a minute
I am an INTJ-A. It does depend on the situation but my traits do overlap with an ENTJ, even considering that I might be an ambivert. The man that I am so in love with is an INFP, and I don't know what it is about him. But it even has me trying to sort through my mind and figure it out. This video reminds me of how in love I am with him. We both consider each other as soulmates, despite how much mess we have gone through.
He is an addictive drug
An all-compassing cure
I am his weakness, he can't be happy without me.
He is my strength, I can't be complete without him.
There is something about you INFPs that is so intoxicating.
I also have soul sisters that are ENFJ and INTP, so that is a GREAT time. I love them so much.
From an INFP male perspective who’s life mate is an INTJ female:
My life began to change when I accepted and became proud of my “feminine” qualities - soft, open emotionally, nurturing, need for intimacy, etc. Not by choice, but I’ve only dated or close friendship with highly attractive, ridiculously intelligent, responsible, independent alpha women, mostly INTJ/ENTJ. I am of average looks at best, high enough IQ, but slender build, small frame, and little muscle - in other words, a bit feminine physically.
Every time I date a woman she says “you’re not my type but I can’t stop seeing you.” They tell me it’s because they can be “who they really are” with me, they can crumble, they can open the hurt locker and I help them connect to they’re emotions, which are underdeveloped. They yearn deeply for this feminine softness. Many of these women had bi-sexual experiences or curiosity, which leads them to be attracted to femininity. They see the INFP male as having the best of both worlds - emotive softness with male perspective. Being only 1% of men, most women have never seen a INFP male.
I’ve been told that my emotional and intellectual depth, writing letters, caring daily, always being a romantic, and intimate sex is what draws them near. However, it’s understanding and living with similar emotional experiences that is the ringer. People want to be around a person who allows them to give themselves a break and “let them be who they are.” The INFP male, once accepting what he is and confident that is exactly what everyone wants to be around and some people “need,” he will become what others can’t - lover, friend, teacher, and, ironically, a hero to people who gave up on their dreams of being loved for who they really are
Wow. This is so accurate it hurts really. Lol!
I used yo be a doormat back in school, foolish behavior based on my lack of confidence and need to isolate my true personality from people. Maintain harmony at all costs,I still hate confrontation, but I learned to put a dont "fuck with me mask" with time as everyone wants to play the "Im dangerous" role and I saw trough it.
Omg when I was young I'd cry to every sad movie where as my siblings would just just tell me it's not real get over it. But I grew up into loving those sad movies and songs because they are what makes me feel something real.
Any other INFPs feel like they just don’t belong/fit in this crazy world?
I'd say any INFP can relate. The major problem is that this world is heading straight for a dystopia right now, and by pushing NF types to the fringe of society, that process is most likely going to be accelerated significantly. Besides, have you noticed the rise in narcissism in society during the last two or three decades?
Greetings from an INFP-T.
@@Robidu1973 Could you explain more about the narcissism? I'm not sure what exactly are you refering to and I would love to know what you mean
@@agatarak6075 Just have a look at "social" media, and you are going to notice a significant increase in attention seeking, sense of entitlement, triangulation, gaslighting, blameshifting and so on going on, and crises like the Covid pandemic have made things much more pronounced.
Narcissists will generally go to great lengths to attain that which they crave most: Validation of their false self that they are projecting, and with attention and validation so readily available on Fakebook and the likes, it's the perfect feeding ground for a narcissist.
The most startling thing, however, is that those folks want to do everything, but at the same time have no inclination toward being held accountable for their actions.
@@Robidu1973 Oh, that's why I didn't notice it because I try to avoid social media as much as possible for this very reason that everything seems so fake but from what I occasionaly see I can definitely see attention seeking, even if the attention is for the wrong reasons and all this fishing for complements and such
@@agatarak6075 That's the very reason why I eventually ditched both Fakebook and Twitter. Too much nonsense to be had, and, being an INFP, it is going to wear you down.
