INFJ- Expression

[Hayley]

My eyes wander all over the place when I talk to people, I constantly have to remind myself to look at the person I'm speaking to. I'll make eye contact for a few seconds, then I'll look back up at the ceiling or down at my hands. Also, people often ask me, "What's wrong? You look sad."

[BookWorm]

We’re always searching for just the right words to say. Plus direct eye contact can feel overwhelming. We prefer to stare from a distance.

I dont know how to not look melancholic. People often ask if something is wrong. Specially if Im on a date lol. Nothing is wrong, Im usually just thinking.

[jamjam]

Same. I don't really look at someone, something when I explain something. I'm focused on what I'm saying and I sometimes remember that I have to look into people's eyes. I'm in my head. More like a monologue. Until I finish. Otherwise I forget what I have to say.

It's so damn hard to maintain eye contact when I talk. If I'm looking at their eyes, I start to think what the other person is thinking instead of what I want or need to say

[davidw]

As an INFJ, I find this very interesting to analyze. I’ve often been told that I come across melancholic.

[AmrMohamed-lgty]

The fact that you can relate so much to those people and Identify them is unreal of itself.
You just KNOW what's going on

[nerdypasta]

Brooo, it's not that deep. We're just thinking too much and trying to talk at the same time.

I wont argue that when INFJs get into serious mood that they can display those features. But I've seen another type of INFJ that shows a lot of optimism (not melancholic) and Fe expression in the face. My INFJ daughter is very optimistic like an enneagram type 7 but she is 1w2 soc/sp. 7 probably is in her tritype. Think she can resemble an enfj with her expressions but she needs that introverted alone time.

wondering eyes! Ugh it’s so hard to control, I always catch myself doing it. I try not to do it so often because I want to appear confident when I’m talking

[sherryedwards]

I guess that's me. I never gave it much thought before. However, I have noticed that when I enter a room I always look around at objects first. Even in a restaurant I notice the decorating and ornaments before looking at the menu. Even before speaking with someone I notice their hair, eyes, jewelry and clothing, then I speak.

Their movements seem to effortlessly glide in perfection

I'm just glad that these are four actors/actresses that I like.

This weirded me out a bit. I am a counselor and I break eye contact during therapy when I decide it is time to speak up because it helps me to turn off the projected emotions so I can focus on my thoughts. I want what I say to be very purposeful and to have an impact. I discovered over the years that some patients will get distress by this and so I then explain, when I look away it is to focus and not to worry because my mind hasn't wondered off.

i am an infj girl in southkorea . hello guys!

[thefanone]

Wandering eyes at the top of my list while speaking or being spoken to

[adamg]

When I make eye contact with others it sometimes feels like someone just hit fast forward on my peripheral vision

[anjay_loves]

Damn! All the comments are so exactly on spot about how I feel ...these are the people like me...all of these are so relatable 😭

[heatherbryant]

I like the background music! Also curious, when you say "wondering eyes, " do you mean "wandering eyes?" Not trying to nitpick; just curious because both are plausible but have slightly different meanings.

[jazlyn]

I find it so funny that people don't get board when I talk 😂 I can't help it to save my life but man...
