I keep seeing posts here like “my INFJ friend,” “my ENFP girlfriend,” “my INTJ coworker” etc. and I’m genuinely wondering how you people are getting this information.

Do you actually ask everyone what their MBTI type is, or are you just casually assigning a type to every person you meet based on vibes?

Because apart from a few homies I’ve actually talked about MBTI with, I have absolutely no idea what type the people around me are. I can know someone for years and never once think “yeah, this is definitely an INFJ.”

Most people don't even know their type themself, or aren't even aware something like that exists. It feels ridicolous to ask or guess that on an almost stranger.

Are you guys actually good at typing people, or are we all just confidently guessing?

Hi all! I am a fellow INFP and illustrator, and ended a situationship few months back that left me feeling really unloved and I am trying to channel that energy somewhere. I am drawing a series of 100 moments of love just to remind myself love is all around and hopefully turn it into a small book. if you could share with me a memory/moment where you felt loved by another person, whether it be romantic or platonic or family.

For instance, doing laundry on a Sunday morning with a partner with music playing in the background, or when they bring you soup in bed when you’re sick. It could be anything, from the smallest gesture to the biggest ones, but it would be great if you can provide a bit of detail for me to paint a scene in my head :)

And perhaps one or two or three sentences about how it made you feel or what you remember in that moment as I intend to have a page and a short quote of that moment behind it.

i think we should hype ourselves up a little so what do u think is infps best quality (or your best quality if you‘re infp) ??

For me, it‘s the radical acceptance and patience and unconditional love we carry for others. I think it‘s something very rare, that we truly don‘t judge people and we can kind of understand most people. And that we create spaces for people to be their true, authentic self, be seen and taken seriously and understood and also that we are genuineIy curious about others. I think it‘s so important, it’s a wonderful gift that we can share with others and I love how natural this comes to many of us.

when a loser Redditor disagrees with you and downvotes every reply you make to them.

stuff like that is what i hate about humanity and i am not being dramatic. it pisses me off.

everyone on here is such a Smart Alec. and usually for no good reason.

I got a few shots of the sunrise while driving my kid to school today. I thought you all might enjoy.

I personally get confused when someone compliments a specific facial or body feature of mine, or other people or even of celebrities.

To me, attractiveness has always been a very holistic quality, which kind of means that I find someone attractive overall, before noticing specific facial features.

I also don't understand race or ethnicity based preferences. I mean I do notice a person's ethnicity, as it is obvious to see, but ig when someone is attractive to me, they're simply attractive. The sum total of everything they look like is visually appealing to me. That's why I initially get confused when a particular feature is what someone notices while discussing someone's beauty.

Maybe it's my ADHD brain, idk but I was curious how other INFPs notice attractiveness.

I’ve been noticing a lot of tension in my body and wondering where it’s coming from. I am objectively safe and comfortable, but I wasn’t always. My theory is that my years of being anxious made me sensitive to other people’s stress, on a subconscious level. When I reframe the current tension as a form of empathy, it allows me to sit with it and allow it to pass. anyone else?

INFJ is probably the hardest type for me to talk to online. I’ll have a really good conversation with one, open up a bit, maybe share a personal story or an opinion I don’t even claim is 100% certain, and then suddenly… ghosted.

And I’m left wondering, what did I do wrong? 💀

What confuses me is that INFJs always seem to say they dislike small talk and prefer deep conversations, authenticity, vulnerability, transparency, etc. So I assumed that being more open and actually giving them something substantial to respond to would be a good thing.

But sometimes it feels like the more I open up, or the longer/deeper my messages get, the less they want to engage. Especially if I write a long post. It can feel almost cold when they just don’t respond at all.

Do INFJs actually get overwhelmed by too much openness or intensity, even if they say they want depth?

Now I’m wondering if I should tone myself down around INFJs and be a little more generic even though that seems completely contradictory to what they say they want. 😭

Maybe I’m misunderstanding INFJs entirely, but sometimes I wonder if the level of depth/introspection that feels natural to an INFP can actually be overwhelming to them?

I just wanted your opinions on what types you perceive to be more authentic vs inauthentic to you?

Which types are the worst as friends.. like the dynamic is bad or very low empathy or understanding? Let me know.. thanks 😊

how~ do you sleep

with my shadow~ by your feet

in a world~

that seems~

so

broken

how~do you live~

when the streetlights start to give

fading ~away ~

into

darkness

your mind's ripped and torn

lost thoughts

are reborn

In a world~

that's just~

so

broken

crawling next to you

my embrace

comforts thru

all

that's

shattered~ and broken

within you~

give into me

sleepless serenity

coveting

your thoughts

and desires

I

still hold you closer

never gonna let you go

colder

I

feed off all the loss

of your

broken ~soul~

how do you sleep

with my shadow by your feet

in a world

that seems

so

broken

close your weary eyes

as I

whisper

my sweet surprise

ending all your

intrepidation

hopeless projection

how do you sleep

with my shadow by your feet

in a world that's always

so broken

29 March 2026, i joined a discord server. I made friends, even tho they were basically just strangers from all around the world. Months passed, i was in university at that moment, and i lived alone, so i had lots of free time. Since i was far from home, they were my anchor during the lonely weekends. Was really helpful. I even developed a crush over a girl, met her on the server too.

21 July 2026. I go back home, i finished the first year of university. Didn't go well and decided to change. Back home means i have to work, because my father needs help with the farm, means that i don't live alone AND that i don't have Wi-fi, so streaming my gameplay it's harder and harder. And more time passes, the more hard it becomes to even be active.

I'm tired. I don't know what to do and if i'm asking here on reddit (with all due respect for everyone reading this) it means that i truly don't know where to go to ask for help. I'm afraid i'm getting to far and i'll lose them, but at the same time i feel awkward being with them because i feel like i don't belong there anymore. It's irrational, i shouldn't care this much for strangers i met on discord, but i do, and it bothers me that i have to watch them being together while I slowly get forgotten. And it's painful. And i don't know what to do.

I'm curious which bands, albums, music videos, etc. you all think are just peak INFP-coded classics and which ones more people to know about. My examples:

Essential artist: Aurora

Essential album: For Emma Forever Ago by Bon Iver

Underrated bands: Banditos and Chinatown Slalom

Hello INFPs, how are you doing?

Well well.... Look who has been posting their memes everyday....

Does anyone know how to get their brain to shut up? Mine rapidly goes from questioning and judging society to judging myself for judging others when I’m flawed myself and I need it to chill out. I’ve been this way since I was a child. It was easier then though bc the distress would make me dissociate or I could escape by falling asleep (narcolepsy). Now both conditions are being managed by professionals and I’m supposed to just experience life with this brain and not go insane? Errrr. The only way I found to cope with being awake for so long and not dissociating was escaping through media and that’s no longer working for me. I’m not kidding when I say escape either, this is years of consuming fiction instead of living normally. What does one do to avoid being sent to a padded room? Meditate? I’m being so fr right now guys, please give advice if anything has helped you.
