I have a friend who I've become pretty close to lately. She tests as an ENFP (but I know for a fact that she is ENFJ.) She's been dating an ESFJ though I don't think his type is too important.
Lately they've been having all sorts of problems... Since I hang out with them alot I, unfortunately, see alot of their ups and downs. I have to say that they were pretty good together at first. Now she is constantly getting frustrated with him for just about everything. She talks to him about all the problems their having, he'll act sorry for a while but really doesn't hear a word of it.
I find it so interesting and sad that she goes through this. She loves him; it seems so pure from her end. Still, I can't help but notice that she is constantly getting her feelings hurt and nothing ever changes. I've seen this with NFs so often I almost think its a fatal flaw that comes with the temperament. Some people will do just about anything for love. Is this common in all NFs? Do you think it extends past significant others to your friends as well? Why the heck do you put yourselves in these situations?
