1. However because I'm interested in the ENTP/INFJ dynamic I made this post assuming it would be fun and have some mock craigslist posts both real and maybe funny.
2.This clearly has turned into something totally different and makes me wonder. I think I'm understanding why I have never met an INFJ in real life. From what I'm hearing you would rather stay alone than meet people even if they are kind and genuine.
3.I guess it's just sad because from how you seem to speak of yourself you almost seemingly think there is nobody that will ever "get" you or "handle" you, as if you're other than an ST, SJ, NF, NT all together.
4. That's a rather depressing view of this. I put seed out to "bait" birds, my yard is full of quail and inca dove, do you think if they were as "aware" as an INFJ they would stop eating my food to avoid me being able to look at how beautiful they are?
5. Do you want to be a more balanced person in those areas as that takes some work and effort.
6. An ENTP in love is more intense than most can handle so personally it sounds like a pretty good match. I couldn't be with another P and no matter how extroverted an ENTP is we still desire HUGE amounts of alone time so I have a very tough time with other extroverts.
7. I was just writing something on being an ENTP and dating so I'll quote that for my opinion of small talk:
8. I am curious what your experience has been with talking to an ENTP?
9.So I'm not picking a fight and I apologize if I come off that way.
10. All I'm doing is pointing out that there is something amazing about being in love and feeling connected to somebody but you won't ever have that if you're so mis-trusting of people and aren't able to talk on the phone.
I mean, I don't mind earning the trust needed for somebody to let me see over their walls or let me in but from this tread it sounds like your walls have turned into roofs as well.
1. I can see how you meant this to be funny. Obviously we took it seriously (but not personally, note: not as an affront), and, ironically, still are.
2. We would not rather stay alone. I think you're hyperbowling here. We many of us (ie. me, who's like 45%E 55%I) are quite social, but it's the matter of giving our hearts out that we're much more protective of. Here you also have to take into consideration our powerful intuitive function. While I am generally not inclined to sharing my heart with people (I try to be open about my life) if I meet someone and 'feel' that they are good and trustworthy I will choose to trust them with much and I'll do it relatively quickly.
3. we think people won't 'get' us or can't 'handle' us because usually life experience has taught us such.
4. lol, if your birds were infj and they did not know why you were baiting them, only that you 'were' baiting them, than no I don't think they would eat your bird food. The idea of infj birds definitely has me giggling though.
5. Of course I want to be more balanced. Constant improvement is my ultimate goal in every situation. This may not be true of others but I've seen enough people stagnate or unwilling to change to be properly afraid of being that way.
6. That's interesting, but all this while I wonder what you mean by "intense". Could you define it?
7. That's interesting. I am often in trouble for not having light conversations but I'm not entirely against talking about things that go nowhere simply to get the emotional load off my chest (ie. work difficulties), this may be something to take into consideration. For women not everything needs a solution (and that's not just for infjs).
8. Lol, I either tend to fall half way in love with them before I realize they're just being themselves or I find them terribly annoying.
9. I don't think anyone thought of it as picking a fight.
10. I do agree that feeling connected is great, but if that connection turns out to be false infjs aren't ones to go "oh, that was a good experience." And, don't diss our mistrust, because when we do choose to trust someone, esp when it proves to be well placed we are undyingly loyal. And most of us can talk on the phone. As for that last statement...ouch.
