Optimists and healers — these are what INFPs are about. They heal others, care for, and motivate people with their naturally passionate demeanor. It’s their instinct to turn people’s miseries around. However, such compassion doesn’t always go the same when these Healers deal with themselves. Ironic, isn’t it? INFPs are known for being kind and
INFP? Jealous? When you look at these gentle and kind souls, you won’t expect a jealous person. But are they really… *chuckles* These Dreamers smile their emotions away and no one would suspect the emotional upsurge swirling inside. But as an INFP, I’m telling you, INFP jealousy is intense! Many INFPs got mastery for the
Here comes a guy keeping you in a cryptic mind game. Ever been in a situation where your intuition says a guy has something for you, yet he also gives off a “Nah, he’s just kind to everyone” vibe? Puzzling, right? More so if they’re an INFP male who won’t readily confess their growing feelings!
Can INFPs be leaders? Oh, you bet they can. INFPs are born with natural leadership traits. You see, INFP leadership acquires a style that society needs today — empathy and compassion.

INFP personality types are often considered the “idealists” of the 16 Myers-Briggs Personality Types because of their aptness for seeing the best in situations. When they’re in their game, it seems like no one will outdo an INFP. What is more, their constantly reeling imagination would always create visions of perfection. These Dreamers are creative,
INFPs may be introverted, but that doesn’t mean we don’t know how to have fun! Last July, I attended a birthday party with my friends. It had been over a year since I last saw the gang, but the bond remains solid. My friends were INFJ, ENFJ, ISTJ, and ISFJ, and of course, I’m an
On the hunt for a new hobby? If you’re an INFP, you know that it can be tricky to find activities that stimulate both your mind and soul.

Discovering I’m an INFP made a huge turning point in my life. In this post, let’s get a wee bit personal. I’d share stories on how my INFP-ness both shone or held me back. Now, what is it like to be an INFP? *** As a child: I was the Epitome of Confidence Monologuing and
INFP stands for Introverted-Intuitive-Feeling-Perceiving. If you’re familiar with the rest of the 16 Myers-Briggs personality types, you would know that INFPs are a misunderstood bunch.

We can regard the INFP comfort zone as any person, place, or situation where INFPs can be free, genuine, and remain emotionally unthreatened. What does the INFP comfort zone look like? Within their dreamlands, INFPs spend hours constructing reels of perfection, what-ifs, and creative possibilities. Meanwhile, in the tangible world, it could be anywhere from
Let’s say it. INFPs search for meaning in everything, I mean everything, they experience. Who wouldn’t want a deep understanding of our surroundings, right?
