[NF] Which NF type would you pick for your SO?

[DigitalMethod]

I couldn't decide... maybe INFJ, maybe INFP... but I did decide that someone should make a similar poll with the rationals.

I like how every ENFP felt it necessary to reply to my comment and got defensive when I used the word slut. It pertained to no one yet garnered many replies.

Truth be told, playaz! HOLLUH

Ah so little love for INFPs

They'd be my second choice, if not maybe my first.

Yes, I know. But take comfort. Only the people of really refined tastes pick us as first choice. The rest don't matter.

As with so much of life, quality.. not quantity!

These people overlooking the INFP are just thinking that we're gonna balk at ironing their socks and coordinating their underwear on wire hangers with a different color for everyday of the week and keeping all the cans in the cabinet with labels all facing the same way! Pffft!

The introversion and the open-minded reserve of the INFP do not give lend to their candidacy as the most appreciated NF.

I can sleep at night knowing I'm the Ron Paul of the Idealists.

no offense, but what the hell is "open-minded reserve"?

 

[disregard]

I had in mind the manifestation of the combination of extraverted perception and introverted judgment.

It's not personal! I don't really know any male INFPs IRL--or if I do, I'm not aware of it--so I can't really imagine it enough to vote for them.

Hey! That's really important. It would seriously take me an extra 15 minutes to fall asleep if I knew the cans were out of order and could be fixed so easily.

lol, I knew exaxctly what she meant...*sigh* people understand the INFP so poorly! *sigh*

In digest's defense, it is reasonable to be expected to communicate effectively. It's better to be misunderstood and then understood than to be written off.

i never studied the functions, so i still don't know.

is it that you're more apt to say out loud what you perceive and judge silently?

like, say your friend is wearing a stupid hat, and she asks you what you think, would it manifest as, "the happiness when you wear it makes you glow! (but it looks like shit)"?

i'm trying to! i can't begin to unless i ask!

I am far from an expert on introverted/extraverted judgment, but I will say that I create within my head MUCH fewer judgments of others than those with extraverted judgment. It rarely occurs to me to judge something that isn't that important to me. Whereas my xSFJ mother judges EVERY FUCKING THING that she comes across.

 

[proteanmix]

I don't think I'd do well with an INFP male but I do think ENFJ males and INFP females are an excellent couple.

I've got several INFP female friends and they're a bit persnickety. They're my friends so obviously it's not that big of a deal to me, but I can see how it would be a little offputting. This is not a jab at INFPs, just an observation/explanation of why the voting is going the way it is.
