I only have one of those, and it's at the bottom. :/, ah well Lumi, as they would say in Venice if they spoke MBTI, Se La Fi.

 

[luminous beam]

One girl on the internet is attracted to all of those things, and you only have one! What are you to do?

D:

lol

I'm just being a butt because Lumi's cool. Sure I'd love to be everything a woman wants, but I'm a bit more down to Earth then that.

I was just being a butt too.

Touche!

So are you still ISFP, or are you masquerading as an ISFP when you're really an INFP? :blinks: :crosseyed:

Yep I'm pretty solid on ISFP, even though I'm sure 75% of this forum doesn't agree with me.

But when you know you're right, it feels that much better.
Faith of a mustard seed....light as feather, stiff as a board. You get what I mean

Exactly. I tried going back to INFP and I knew that I was right in ISFP... and it didn't feel right at all. I only lasted like half a day.

Obsession is a turn on.

I like it better in theory than reality (makes for such great stalker love songs). Although a mutual obsession might feel less suffocating....

 

[brainheart]

What am I attracted to? Hmm, I know it when I feel it, otherwise...
Someone with whom I can engage in witty repartee.
Someone with whom I feel an instantaneous non-verbal connection.
Someone who is also passionate about music and/or words and living an experience- taking life as it comes.
Someone who I can tell is attracted to me, but they're subtle about it.

 

[brainheart]

I've been thinking about it some more-

Someone who isn't afraid to be eccentric. The more idiosyncratic, the better!
Someone I can't figure out right away.

what about open admiration
not smothering but very direct
I recall telling someone that their personality was "the shit"

 

[TopherRed]

The biggest thing I'd be afraid of with dating (, courting, marrying) an INFP is their affinity for not telling you what they really think of you. I know how wrapped up I can get with that type; I really don't want to be thinking everything's okay when suddenly, someday, I come home to an empty house and a heartfelt, but bruising, and tear-stained note about how you couldn't take it anymore. I don't think I could stand the heartbreak, I'd super-blame myself and probably would date again for another decade, if ever. It hurts to even consider that.

Yep Yep.

...I like masculine guys.

[x] Ne/Ni
[x] Fe
[x] Sincerity
[x] Sharp as a Whip
[x] Christian (that's a personal preference; sawree )
[x] Masculinity. Hawt.
[x] All the other crap I mentioned...

Why can't they open their mouths and tell us what the hell they're thinking??

We can talk about things, we just have to feel safe to be that vulnerable. I don't see an INFP in a committed, long term relationship just bailing unexpectedly. At worst, an immature, scaredy-cat INFP does that only when casually dating someone.
