Amusing?

In the same way as when I notice my girlfriend's period is coming...

"Why are you so much more upset about this than normal??"

Really? Oh haha that's funny. I don't know I guess it bugs me to keep seeing people talk about enfps like they do. I've never been flightly in my life when it comes to relationships.

Sorry op person. :blush:

My response is in the other thread I think.

But yeah sorry. I'm not really upset. I just don't like how some people talk about enfps. One of the most loving and loyal person I know and I don't appreciate being painted like I'm some flightly heartless bitch. That's all. :)

Nah, ain't no thang.

I think your perspective is refreshing/illuminating.

Addressing the way that I've experienced INFP & ENFP women in the context. I've basically come up a draw when considering partner material. I consider the NFP preference really attractive in general, and the E cancels out the I in the sense that I both find security in being bailed out and sticking my head into their tits for comfort in a hidden away place. That's as far as typology goes on the subject for me.

Yeah, I agree with you on NFPs being highly attractive in general.

The thing is, I've dated a lot of EFPs, but I don't think I've ever dated an IFP.

And I do wonder sometimes whether an IFP would be better for me...

As an ENFP I seem to fit romantically with an INFP better than an INTJ.

I think I friend zone INTJs.

The INTJs I know seem to fit well with ENFJ/ESFJ

Further and on a more practical level I don't have anything to add. Since I don't date, and I've never had a solid relationship above friend level.

Did you get an infraction?

Since z seems very interested in this discussion. I'll play along tho. What questions if any do you have. I know a lot about at least a few infps and enfps.

I think, at this point, it would be best if I ventured [MENTION=10496]skylights[/MENTION]' epic mountain of a post, and came back with thoughts...

I started this discussion as I did because I like to begin an analysis with the benefit of other peoples' input.

Hearing other peoples' opinions allows me to see the various perspectives, evaluate them, and then synthesize them.

Unfortunately, [MENTION=15004]Mia.[/MENTION] seems to have dropped out of the discussion, so I'm getting essentially no such input from the INFP side.

I noticed that you changed your tune from complete disarray into compliance with the general theme of the thread.

I was responding to why an INFP would say negative things about an ENFP being "not deep"

OrangeAppled was right, as usual.

eta:
And the ENFP vs INFP thing going on here is sort of bizarre. I don't see any reason to pit the types against each other.

[MENTION=9187]Within[/MENTION]: just... don't... say anything.

It might... disturb... the balance.
