>someone compliments you, whole day is sunshine >say something stupid or awkward, the pain lasts for a week >a guy shits on you in a joking way expecting a comeback, it stings and you can't respond
How do you form human relationships when even the smallest things make you feel way too much?
>a guy shits on you in a joking way expecting a comeback, it stings and you can't respond am i socially retarded for hating banter and hardly ever using it in face to face conversation while i still used to meet my friends? i wouldnt survive a minute in UK.
Xavier Cox
Imagine unironically being a literal fucking fairy.
i agree with this sentiment. i hate masculinity. i want to do and feel whatever I want. i dont judge others but i hide my true nature from everyone because i know it is unacceptable
Wyatt Green
>tfw INTP but the margin between T and F is always the closest on every test which explains a lot.
Also just for fun I took these two tests on idrlabs to really confirm I am INTP, the results were very interesting
yet the number of extremely celebrated musicians, artists, and thinkers who are INFP males is overwhelming
Parker Fisher
unfortunately most people are not great. they're just average, mediocre. and if you're going to be average or a loser, INFP ain't the best personality to be doing it with. the sense of isolation is horrifying.
Lincoln Hill
Isolation doesn't feel that bad to me, but that's probably because I've gotten pretty good at keeping my mind busy all the time.
Jayden Sullivan
>tfw INTP but I hate STEM shit and prefer to come up with stories Am I an honorary INFP?
>tfw INFP that did a STEM degree I enjoyed quite a bit of it though so am I an honourary INTP?
Ryan Johnson
are you any of those three things? i doubt it. do you take pride in knowing kurt cobain or whomever also had similar dominate cognitive function as you?
Ian Fisher
I honestly enjoy both STEM(mainly the computer/tech component) and drawing/art, it doesn't matter too much I guess
INFP here, check out this mini guide to INFP, it has helped me a lot. >use logic and reason >filter everything through the scientific method >if you are feeling bad talk with yourself through the Socratic method, why am I feeling this? Is it possible to stop feeling like this? How? And so on >things only matter to you and nobody else, because nothing really matters, you are insignificant in the grand scheme of the universe >nobody has the obligation nor the responsability to take care of your feelings, YOU and only YOU have that responsability >embrace pain ...No matter how strong the pain is, its our duty to move forward. Youre wrong for running away from reality... >the meaning of life is life itself >you are not special, you are a slave of your emotions, even if you think you are not >dont take things personally, most people dont have bad intentions, and even if they do, why are you allowed them to hurt you?
Robert Martinez
I think learning to lucid dream will be especially helpful, you can't ask for greater escapism than that.
Anthony Sanchez
>>someone compliments you, whole day is sunshine More like whole day is filled with questioning their intentions. >>say something stupid or awkward, the pain lasts for a week A lifetime* >>a guy shits on you in a joking way expecting a comeback, it stings and you can't respond or you stutter out a meek response then walk away and apologizing later. >How do you form human relationships when even the smallest things make you feel way too much? I don't.
Jack White
Homeless in new street. Crack whore being annoying as fuck on other side of the street, I call her a stupid bitch; she apologizes to me. lol
Couple nights ago see crack whore maybe same one and punches this super heavyweight black guy in the skull! lol
Aaron Sanders
My banter gets me jumped and attacked by cops.
Landon Lee
I never asked for this. Just fucking kill me.
Levi James
You are high on Fi with unhealthy Fe for sure, it's not that weird.
Joshua Baker
i am one of those things and you can be too. Jow Forums is a terrible breeding ground for it, though.
Gavin Taylor
>Implying that Intuitive types and those who prefer it over sensation are never dysfunctional or even just plain stupid.
solidarity fellow feelbro. this ain't easy and you never get any credit for moving forward. at least we understand each other's struggle
Andrew James
It comes in waves. For months I'll be perfectly content with my isolation, as my few hobbies are enough to satisfy me for life. But occasionally I'll have a day or week filled with despair, where I realize I'm stuck in this hermit life I had made for myself, and wish that I had gone to parties, had relationships, and kept up with old friends.
Christian Perry
is that the youtube guy who did the self driving car prank and that one girl from the one show?
Asher Thomas
>tfw first test gave me INFP but every test after that gave me INTP feelsbad I went from edgy emo artist chad to computer science cuck
Joseph Wood
>the youtube guy who did the self driving car prank wut? Its the ogre from Game of thrones making fun of a clueless pajeet. You can see the reflection of the other redhead actress as well.
Jaxon Stewart
Thanks actually. I don't think I can take too many of these to heart, but I'll have it saved somewhere in case I can unfuck myself.
Cameron Gutierrez
>when you're the quiet one that even the sperg can shut up by clowning on if it was acceptable to fight back, I would, but no, they're like "user that's clearly premeditated murder."
Jonathan Sanders
Ill screensshot this as a remind not to be infp in front of people.
Mason Gray
no but the type of person to browse r9k is definately an ISFJ
>regretting literally everything you've ever done even if its pretty normal.
Parker Harris
oh god this hits too close too home
Gavin Morris
That's me to a tee, user. I also constantly think if what I'm doing is socially awkward or not and will try and plan out social situations to avoid potential cringe moments.
I can never feel natural in a social situation.
Aiden Gomez
I want to be a gay pornstar and just get fucked by giant mem and never have to think about anything, just be a fuck toy. Just experience extremes of pleasure and pain all the time without having to make any statement or learn anything.
>got into argument with dad in texts >said we will talk when he gets home >spent the entire day in bed dreading it and can't find motivation to do anything productive I needed to do today
Going to have to try to defend my position and shit. I'm just so sick of this. I can't wait when I live alone.
Colton Smith
Reminder that INFPs and INFJs shall inherit the Earth while all others destroy themselves.
INTJ here. I'd fuck you, INFP. I just wouldn't want to stay with you.
Carter Parker
INFPs want love though. Sorry. I've had sex before, it's overrated and would be triply so if there were no genuine connection or admiration behind it.
Jaxson Flores
Pls give an explanation.
Adrian Turner
infp but I get more depressed and angry and sad as the years go by
Jackson Watson
That's actually very fucking hot
Cameron Garcia
Creative, impulsive, emotional types can be exciting short term. After that their reactivity gets to be too much.
Thomas Miller
What website is thaat
Tyler Smith
sheeeit we're INFP not ENFP. impulsive doesn't really describe us. more like "have intense feelings we have to suppress and stuff deep down lest everyone think we're gay or corny or pathetic or too sensitive." there's nothing particularly exciting about us, otherwise we'd be pussy magnets. we're basically girls in boys' bodies, except without the body dysmorphia of trangenders
Levi Phillips
>be schizophrenic INFJ >essentially became crazy mix between INFJ, INFP and INTP as you can imagine my life is hell, i am alone 24/7, i don't have any friends, and if you asked me what's in my head at any moment it would be suicidal depression with paranoia, delusions, and an extreme fantasy life that nobody will ever know about. also feels. when i'm not completely apathetic i feel a lot of feels that regularly bring me to tears.
Blake Moore
Dont think Im very impulsive desu I always like to play things pretty safe.
Gavin Jackson
>still think about that time someone yelled at you 3 years ago why the fuck am I so thin skinned I can't keep living like this
Hudson Carter
>Used to be INFP >Went through massive trauma, and came out an INFJ after a year
Being an INFJ is way better. It's nice to be able to be empathetic, but be able to use your head instead of being an emotional mess all the time.
>Then you truly didnt because its impossible to go back. It's not impossible, but it's certainly tough. t. trying to make friends and hang out with people I just met after about 8 years of going to school/work and home without talking to anyone.
>tfw INFP >tfw had internal dialogue with myself recently >came to the conclusion that it is my responsibility to change stuff in my life >i should go to class >i should get out of bed >DO IT >DO IT >i eventually don't do shit and stay in bed thinking about stuff lmao
why am I like this? basically i see the solution to my problems very clearly and I still don't do it. Also I can't get out of my room because i hear someone's outside watching the tv, and i don't want them to see me. This is fucking hell. I don't want to be like this.
Nolan Edwards
>am i socially retarded for hating banter and hardly ever using it No, banter itself is stupid and breaks tranquil silence (which is preferable to banter) in a rude way. I take banter as a personal insult because I would never "jokingly" insult others because I'm not an immature third grader, I expect people to, at the very least, not be immature third graders themselves. If you're going to joke, joke. If you're going to insult, insult. If you're going to compliment, compliment. Don't fucking banter because it compiles all that into one and it's a disgusting mess of words that is neither a joke, insult or compliment.
I dont know man, every time I try I end up going back to isolating myself again.
Samuel Cox
I do this all too often, but it's always late at night when I can't actually do any of it right away. But I think procrastination is found in all sorts of people, not just us unfortunate INFPs.
Levi Turner
this, I don't get how banter is supposed to be part of comradery it just makes you seem insincere, like you want to insult someone but say it's just banter so they don't get mad at you
Brody Ross
i do it at night too, i lose a lot of sleep because of this. Sometimes my mind decides to make me face my problems and it won't shut up. I find the solution and the next morning i don't do shit and I spend the day shitposting and playing vidya. At least I'm lucky, I still manage to cheese my way through uni with pretty good results, I'm actually one of the top students in my class lmao. But it still feels like shit because I feel like I'm wasting my potential. I might eventually go to therapy, I think i need it. I can't fucking sleep it's making me crazy.
Brayden Taylor
>it just makes you seem insincere, like you want to insult someone but say it's just banter so they don't get mad at you I know. If you're going to point out a few flaws in someone and you aren't looking to insult them, then point it out casually, but without addressing it loudly like they when they throw le bantz xDD
Austin Perry
You weren't hit enough as a kid or you didn't get into enough fights. Also, you've lead a very comfy, safe life.
Had you gotten punched in the face enough times or had you dealt with actual problems, things like these would seem ridiculous.
Isaiah Anderson
I Can only banter with people if theyre my friends, i hate when random people just banter around idk what todo
I used to be really good at banter and it was genuinely fun to shit on each with my friends back in high school. But once everyone started losing their virginities and the amount of sex you've had decided your worth I became too self-conscious to shoot the shit, and eventually isolated from everyone I knew.
Jace Stewart
>got into plenty of fistfights as a kid >got called down plenty of times to the office as a kid >was that weird fighty kid everyone hated >still an infp disproved.
Angel Mitchell
I've realised that 90% of male on male interaction is shooting the shit. something I'm completely unable to do even if I forced myself to try. I was always the guy in friend groups who never had jokes directed at me because it clearly made me uncomfortable. which meant I was always on the outskirts
William Smith
I remember fighting a kid when I was pretty young, but I think violence is a stupid and unnecessary way to solve problems.
Charles Wright
that... is not how mbti works in any way. but whatever
Lincoln Adams
>stared out the window for 3 hours straight trying to spot a pokemon when I was 7 because I wanted them to be real so badly
is this an INFP thing?
Christopher Martinez
I used to be an INFP, now I don't feel much at all
Colton Williams
sounds right, yeah. I was majorly autistic when younger, had all sorts of video game and pokemon fantasies
Easton Harris
Same feel user I usually dont banter with people until I feel closer to them. Banting right off the bat is just trying to be edgy
What i found is that guys generally Always bant even when they dont know the person while grills only do it if theyre close enough for this reason i kinda always had more friend grills then guys but theyve never been more then friends because i think they Can smell my autism and weakness, there was a thick stacey who called me pretty but her friend knew me already and probably told her about how i was and so she never showed more interest, its hard to be a male infp man no grill want to be the conforter while were expected to be one, grill infp must have really good love lives
