3/ Talk to themselves.
4/ Tell emotional truths.
5/ The INFJ stare.
6/ It takes time to learn new things.
7/ Runs into walls.

Phone calls are rude interruptions. Imagine going about your day and someone just barges through the front door and begins talking about whatever it is their intent was and you are expected to drop everything and accommodate this!? Phone calls are like that.

Sometimes I won't look ppl in the eye because their soul is appalling and painful to engage

1. Research obsessively and then discard!-YES! I was just thinking of this today!

[tatjm]

I used to think I was a freak until I found that I'm an INFJ. Now I feel better with myself and my lil odd ways.

"...hate getting phone calls." Ha! that's me alright. The phone rings and i'm "Who the f*ck is that now? What do they want?"

[STRONGfamVALUEZ]

I love Researching my personality, narcissistic personality, metaphysics, quantum physics, government things. An religion, I love learning new things. Definitely talk to myself 😂😂😂. All the above. We're so quirky I LOVE IT. ❤❤❤ Ive had plenty of bruises on me from bumping into stuff. So cool to FINALLY NOT FEEL ALONE. THX FOR UR VIDEOS 😁

I absolutely *hated* when mother would put my sister and I on the phone to talk with some relatives or family friends.

Is that just a me thing?

[Ginascottage]

I have always been a researcher. I obsess over a given topic. I used to think “this is my passion! I finally found it.” But inevitably I would reach a level of understanding and would move on. Friends and family get angry at me and say, “Just pick something and stick with it!” But I just add the information to my internal encyclopedia and move on.

I've obsessively researched criminals, and narcissists. I see them a mile a way now. It keeps me safe from being a victim.
I also have phone-bia. 😂

I am an INFJ and I appreciate your insights, Jay. The people in my life have always thought of me as intelligent, but I've doubted that because of my learning style. I have always felt that I'm a slow learner, but I tend to excel in a topic after a long learning period of pattern recognition. Thank you for not letting me feel alone in thought.

60 yr old INFJ here. It does get easier.
Oh.. those bloody door frames!🤣 I even built my own house with extra wide doorways. Made no difference!
When I talk to myself I describe it as 'me' chatting to my flesh robot.
I know when my family members are having problems because they avoid talking to me. They know a chat with me is a reality check that they can't handle yet.


On the phone you'll often hear me say "I can hear you smiling" /frowning etc..
I live a hardworking but peaceful self-supporting life on our tiny farm and it gives me all the subject matter I need to quench my thirst for knowledge. This year I'll be building a 'rope pump' for our well - happy researching!

When I express myself, I look away. When I am listening and interested, I look people in the eye.

[jasbadsirron]

Phone calls to me, are like someone coming to my door and knocking (expecting me to open/pick up), without forewarning.

Even my best friend or wife can call me out of the blue without warning, and I won't pick up and I'll wait for the voice message.

[whatisthat]

As an INFJ I am mature at mind but kid in the heart. Yeah people find me weird and intimidating. They don't understand my emotional truths and they always misunderstood me. Sometimes people takes advantage and used me for their own benefits but not trusting my intuition cost me a lot.

100% right that we are information vampires.When we find something we are interested in we spend most time researching about it.

[TeriHargraveartist]

When I was younger, if I felt people watching me, I not only became clumsy, I also had a tendency to freeze. That was a nuisance. Anyone else got frozen from too much scrutiny?

[kentuckyroads]

I research conspiracy theories, houseplants, hair cutting (especially the shag cut), all kinds of animals, (particularly pets, ) psychology, and narcissism.

[TimeTurnerArtStudio]

Omg I never knew other people fell UP stairs like me! I’m not alone, thank you. ❤

[daniel_iv]

I feel very lonely and unbearably anxious. I just want to love and feel needed by someone.
