The INFJs did one for the ENFPs
now we use the same premise for our advancement
I've seen more talk of INFPs and ENTJs than with ENFJs, but i am open as usual.

So divulge if you dare.

ENFJs: Because they say/do what we think, and we help control/redirect their eccentricities.

ENTJs: I don't know why we're matched up.

We love their guidance, we really do..coming from an INFP, and it is comfortable, the whole extroversion balancing out the introversion..but personally, in general, I really really love ENFJs, and even INFJs..and hell, I love the other 14 types too!

The pairing works since the values are the same with the middle letters, but you balance out because you express yourself differently. It's where the whole opposites attract idea works. I love being around them, but they don't notice my qualities in the same way so it's kind of sad. I think it has to do with I's not always showing their qualities like an E, so it usually takes something dramatic or extreme for them to see them in that way.

I'll bet it's because INFPs hate and/or suck at making decisions and ENxJs looooove making decisions. Mutualistic symbiosis!

No, I don't want this thread to die. It gives me hope for both INFP's and ENFJ's finding happiness together like in the ENFP and INFJ thread. I mean, read the bonding in that thread and tell me it can't work.

This statement holds up well if you're talking about business-related decisions.

Anything is possible in a relationship, really, though I naturally shy away from women who present themselves as a whirlwind of action and emotion. Too much stuff being done and not enough grounding to reflect and learn from reflections. Imbalance. I'm imbalanced and sensitive enough as it is.

Metaphorically speaking, say I'm inside the waterfall and can see an ENxJ. We can see each other and, by god, we want to talk. We can understand each other, but there's that Te/Ni or Fe/Ni barrier that seems to tint every word coming out. And though I can make out words from behind the crashing of the water, I have to go through extra work to overcome that tinted sound in their voices. Extra translation in my head. I need someone on my side of the waterfall, a person that is more than a silhouette.

the fun thing about INFP's is that we can walk straight through a barrier if we want. We can understand others better than any other type just so we can communicate through barriers. As for the silhuoette, you have to invite people into your world, since the only ones in a waterfall would be INFP's, but they have their own waterfall.

That's an ESFJ, I'm afraid. Every concern is of the actual, present, visible, edible, touchable...
