Not knowing what type they are? (there is a selfish motive for starting this thread)
I'm going to say no. There are way too many self-proclaimed INFPs on this board & other forums for INFPs not to know their type. I think it's a big myth that NFPs cannot decide on type - rather, people just like to lump other people into the NFP categories if they seem indecisive. I notice people typing themselves as INFP at first & then switching to another type once they know MBTI better & then staying with that new type - indicating to me that they mistyped as INFP and have found a better fit.
I'd argue that being Fi-dom, you often know yourself well and you will find your type soon enough through testing, reading profiles, researching functions, and honest self-analysis. Almost everyone goes through a questioning period when they first get into MBTI. Those who can never decide seem to not know themselves very well, or to not understand MBTI very well, IMO.
Personally, once I settled on INFP, I never went back .
Anyone who is fairly well balanced within the functions probably has a harder time. Extremes of any function would be much easier to notice.

I'm not absolutely positive because I think I might be an ISFP.
But dude you are so spacy
I have a cousin who took the MBTI, and his jaw dropped on how accurate the profile was. I'd have to agree.
But with you? No, I don't think it's always that simple

i'm the same way, always stuck between the two... but i think a lot about possibilities and the future, and i consider myself to be somewhat "philosophical" (lol...). those are two things i read are more INFP than ISFP, so i guess i'm sticking with infp.
