Recognize an INFP in 30 Seconds #16types

[lemon_tea.]

I’m scared how accurate this described my daily thought process

[melodyconte]

As an INFP, I wasn't sure what Si was until you said "Here are some very specific details about the thing I just remembered"
Then I was like "Shut up!!! Stop calling me out!!!😳😅"

[tiagonthego]

Not only the accuracy of what he’s saying, but that is exactly how my thought process is like, exactly in that order, and then I Te catch myself and I’m like girl shut up and go get something done💀😭

[ezio_]

With the Si is when the nostalgia hits

[adrienne]

Omg... I laughed so hard when you got to te. Because I always jump up after procrastinating all day and say, "I gotta get stuff done. " exactly the way you illustrated here. I laughed at ne too because this is so me, and people get shocked because they don't expect me to get so animated out of nowhere lol 😂

[RetroXRicardo]

This is exactly my INFP coworker! Loved this and makes complete sense. I adore my INFP people as an ESFJ! 🤗🤗🤗

[brownsongbird]

I have had this exact inner monologue with myself 😂

[SDoesNotKnow]

Love this and it’s a great and quick illustration of how our minds work.

Jung said Fi is the least understood of all the functions and subsequent studies and writings on MBTI further shows this as it seems everybody has a hard time articulating the depth and actual power of Fi.

As an INFP, the way I see from reading various sources and comparing it to my own experiences, is that Fi is an analytical function that is countered by Te inferior to keep it grounded in the observational world and with external objective data points (and keep it productive… somewhat as other types may not see our productivity in the way we do), so it can be quite logical and grounded in rationality.

Further, our Ne is what makes us intellectually curious to continue reading and researching and gathering “facts” which then parents our Fi to challenge our judgments and question what we feel with what we externally gather (also feeding our Te) while allowing us to see different arguments, angles, and ways around problems or assumptions about what can be done. Our Si controls our Ne by making sure we keep doing familiar enjoyable things to keep us safe and satisfied.

That’s why I always say that it is important that we INFPs push ourselves (within reason) to do things to gain more experience and “data” so our Te can feed our Fi to better analyze our values and judgments much more thoroughly and with conscientiousness.

Our Fi is our gut feeling and instincts and it’s our survival skill. It also gives people who produce just to produce context to what they’re doing and keeps them in check and in touch with their humanity.

All of our functions working the way it does in our stacks is why we have foresight to see what will happen that will confuse people who think certain chain reactions don’t make sense or wasn’t predicted… we saw it coming… but of course we also saw like 10 other things coming that didn’t come, but that’s another topic 😂. Expanding our experiences to develop our Si and Te will feed our Ne and Fi so we’ll be even better at knowing likelier outcomes while still having that open mindedness to not be so frustrated and crippled with bitterness when people act like people and not robots using logical algorithms.

my jaw dropped from how accurate this is😭😭 hes really OUT FOR US INFP GOD DAMNNN

[Chippy.]

We did an assignment where I had to tell them my favorite word-
Took me like 10-20 minutes to answer that while others took a minute

[PamelaZKemper]

I feel all the feels about this. Creeped out because I feel seen, annoyed that I'm like this while also extremely proud, and....lost it, already distracted 😂

[David]

Oh, this sounds familiar... 100% accurate

[dreamfulblue]

why is this so accurate 😭 especially with the te part! CRAZY

[jakebarnum]

This way of thinking is constant for me lol

[joanaborrellsanchez]

Apparently my Te is usually not forcing me to do anything. I have to study rn and I'm so calm. But then it gets louder and louder, it's like a quiet fly that gets annoying and then I have to study to make it stop. So bye, after 1h of procrastinating and breaking my own schedule, I will go study.

[yea]

As an INFP, this is exactly how I feel every single day!

[bakarka]

Me: "What the hell am I doing riding my bike, that Zoom session I signed up for started 45 minutes ago!" And my partner when I get home, who remembered it when I forgot: "What is WRONG with you?!?!?"

[joshuamensah]

This is too accurate it is freaking me out 😂

[isabel]

im literally gobsmacked. bro i live this cycle everyday

[YEDxYED]

Back in high school, a girl on the bus was making fun of her bf for asking to hold her hand and to kiss her 😂
