I've spent the better part of the last hour reading the post on this thread. It was both amusing and insightful.

I'm new to the boards and I look forward to joining in the conversations.:hi:

You know you're an INFJ when you spend hour after hour reading about what it's like to be an INFJ!

You know you're an infj when you constantly think:
"If people really knew me, they wouldn't like me"
Basically, you feel a bit like a fraud.

That's exactly what I did. My friends thought I was crazy, but I think that's only because they don't really get what it's like to finally understand all your little oddities >.>

Just discovering the concept of introversion and that there are plenty of people with this preference was really life-changing for me.

Sometimes. But mostly I wonder if that's my avoidant relational tendencies talking as opposed to INFJness.

You know you're an INFJ when...a depressing song makes you feel alive, especially when you are depressed. Just watched Radiohead: in Rainbows. Wonderful concert if you can catch it on IFC.

It's proven to be true. At least for me. I don't try anymore.

This is a tentative one, and is probably true for other types:

you always hit the "preview post" button before submitting a post.

Actually, no; I usually just edit what I submit without previewing ^^;

By the time i've planned out what i want to say and rereading it to see how it looks on paper, and then again just to make sure that there are no typos; I've already wasted so much time I get fed up and hit quick post!

At school when you hand in a copy the essay continues inside your head.

:yes:

You know you're and INFJ when you spent hours reading about what it's like to be and INFJ but you can't/don't want to post yet b/c you haven't finished reading the ENTIRE thread for fear that someone else already said the same thing and you don't want to look like an idiot.

Exactly. And if you are new in a forum you at first only read other people's posts until it occurs to you that you could also write something and your opinions don't just need to stay in your head.

^Hmm I think this thread could double as a 'safe-place' for INFJ, we all seem to struggle with ever-refining our thoughts before posting. *taxing* Hence if you don't know if it may have been said you could still write whatever you want imho... I'm sure it would just start a cascade of recognition :)

YES! Exactly so....I think I've typed 5 or 6 posts and have deleted them all!!! I can't speak until I know what the hell I'm talking about :D
