Lisa<br><br>I'm wounded to the core that you think my F illogical lol! It is merely not linear. And being NF makes leaps that often only have clear logic with...
Hi folks. I'm an ENFJ who works as a trainer working with unemployed and socially excluded people in Peckham (SE London) - now there's a surprise! lol! :) I ...
Dear Robin,<br><br>My sympathies to your wife! (smiling broadly) But hey, my sympathies to you as well. (smiling Broadly again) I love MBTI. It allows me to ...
I'm new to this particular club (although I also belong to the INFP Open club here on Yahoo and have learned recently of a INFP Closed group here as well). ...
Welcome to the club! There is not that much posting that goes on here. Being an S versus an N makes it difficult to respond to your message. But I will plead...
Hi - sorry to have taken so long to respond, but I needed some time to work through what you were saying. I suspect that you are right that it is your ...
After brushing up on some of my typology knowledge (via "Typetalk" by Otto Kroeger), I may have to revise my original brief somewhat. I'm beginning to realize...
I would tend to agree with you that it is the J-P dimension that the most problematical to a relationship. Temperamentally an SJ (Epimethean - stabilising...

>>because I, as an INFP, find it hard to understand how someone can claim to have feelings for me and yet apparently be totally unwilling to consider my ...
Are you certain that your partner said what he did with the deliberate intent to wound -- or is it possible that he lashed out from the intensity of his ...
You also haven't mentioned what your partner's type is or might be, which may have some bearing on it. As I wrote in an earlier message, "P"s like us can have...
I think you are correct in saying that it is not necessarily a type trait but other contextual factors interplaying. <br><br>There is a great danger in trying...
Thanks for your very thoughtful note. I should have made it clear that this was a past relationship. I tend to write very short notes that are to the point,...
I can't remember where I first saw "X" used when someone falls evenly between Introvert and Extravert, or Sensing and Intuitive, etc., but that is what I am...
Hi Lisa - thanks for the explanation, which was as I suspected it might be. There does seem to be a common misconception in that MBTI is a test, whereas it is...

Lisa - I'm not going to tell you whether you are I or E (and nobody ever should - only you really know).<br><br>What I'm finding alarming is the low quality of...

Dear Lisa<br><br>To answer your parting shot first....there is nothing I can find that suggests that stubborness is a particular trait of either type; however,...
Since your posts would seem to indicate that you have a fairly in-depth understanding of this subject, I thought I would ask you for your thoughts...<br><br>To...
To everyone else: if you don't hop in Robin and I are going to monopolize this club. Please post if you are inclined to do so. <br><br>To Robin,<br><br>I am ...
Dear Gigi<br><br>First of all, may I say how sorry I am to hear of your difficulties. As you note it takes two to keep a relationship going, and if one partner...
I echo Lisa's sentiments! Guys keep posting -don't let us monopolise; and your own comments to this exploration.<br><br>Lisa - I need a bit more time to think...
As it happens, things are a little bit better than they were when I wrote you -- I did finally hear back from my ENTJ friend. As I was by that time expecting,...
Gigi - I'm glad that you came through this feeling positive about yourself....thatis the most important thing. Remember that all types have validity and worth...
Sorry Lisa<br><br>My J rebelling at your P by calling your behavious indecisive - unfair.<br><br>The problem seems to be that you see yourself using both sides...
I have found that a early midlife crisis has set in and that I am having to reintergrate myself. Do you suppose that it is a natural state of affairs for an...
Hi - quite a post. Let me first reassure you that you are not necessarily having a midlife crisis (they are not mandatory), and even if you are, it is not ...
