Haulden is anti-social, but most characters mentioned in this thread are not.
There’s no anti-social type. We could wonder whether each type tends to become anti-social because of different reasons. Like I think that INFPs could get anti-social when they feel unaccepted or when they get disappointed because the reality don’t meet their expectations.

I type INFP Lady Sybil from Downton Abbey.

And is Pip from “Great Expectations” INFP? Or anyone has different idea?

Yeah, Pip is either an INFP or an ISFP. I'm leaning toward ISFP, because his Se seems pretty strong. He's very concerned about what others think of him, and he places a lot of importance on sensory things, like having fancy clothes and nice furnishings. Definitely an Fi dom, though.

I think Pam Beesley from The Office might be an INFP.

Also, has anyone mentioned Melanie from Gone with the Wind?

I'm not sure about Se. He is never really here and now, always dreaming about future or having regret's about past. Although it may be just that as Eneagram 4 he is always longing for things he doesn't have ( I can see him as 8 too... hmm)

Allison Reynolds in the Breakfast Club (She uses Fi-Si, but too disorganized to be an IXTJ. Also very quiet and in her own world like a typical INFP.)

Would Zuko from Avatar; The Last Airbender be an INFP? Or is that way off? I feel like he is.

She is Fi, but I don't know whether INFP or ISFP. Probably more INFP(?)...

Anyway, she is awesome:D

Kurt Hummel from Glee, in my opinion. There seems to be a fandom consensus of Kurt as an INTJ but I just can't agree when looking at functions. I think we see him dealing with large amounts of stress very frequently which brings the inferior Te sharply into focus, but he is clearly a strong Fi user, for good and bad, and given the choice between ne/si and se/ni I think it is very obviously the former for lots of documented reasons but honestly mostly down to the "vibe". Se aux seem to have an earthier, more physicaly present and grounded, force of nature feel to them Ne aux's are generally a little odder, a little otherworldly, and like our brains don't quite comfortably work in the real world.

I think Brittany from Glee may be an INFP too, possibly ENFP, her Ne is off the charts and she definitely uses Fi as well, I just can't decide whether Te or Si is her inferior, arguments could be made for either.

Ray Bradbury, one of my favorite INFPs. I read one of his biographies and there are a lot of parallels between him and Cameron Crowe, who I also believe to be INFP. They both had this thing that looked like extroversion, but was in fact a quiet tenacity in getting them into the center of the things they loved.

Zezé from "My sweet orange tree" and other Vasconcelos novels. :) He could be ISFP or INFP but I think he is more like INFP.


Edit: I like this book so much that I'm going to change avatar at least for a while.

Remus Lupin

Aang from Avatar last airbender?

Lupin, certainly. Aang, though, has always seemed to me to be more of an ENFP. INFPs typically aren't nearly that outgoing.

Would Zuko from Avatar; The Last Airbender be an INFP? Or is that way off? I feel like he is.

Oh, right! I knew there was an INFP somewhere in that series, but I couldn't remember who it was.

But yeah, I think most would agree that Zuko's an INFP. That's the type I see people typing him as most often, and I agree with it.

I used to think Caboose from Red vs Blue was an ENFP. But now, I'm pretty sure he's an INFP.

How about this guy? Sterling Spence: singer/songwriter/liberal activist. Seems like an INFP to me.

I think thats becasue most INFPS in fiction are actually ISFJ's who do tend to be more meek. The actual infp's will be more angsty or aloof but never week.
