I keep testing as INFJ on MBTI tests.
Would you mind sharing some self knowledge with me to see if perhaps I might belong here?

The equivalent of that statement is that I have underdeveloped feeling functions. That could have many reasons.Quote:

How do you know that you have received Ni? How do you spot it in the environment or yourself?Quote:

I mean can you perhaps give some examples?Quote:

I am sorry, I don't quite understand that. In what way does your brain act with NI always?Quote:

INFps Collectively: We don't know. :(
I don't really know how I use :Ni: consciously, so this will sound chaotic and spacey... Like, a strange architectural sense of time and the potential associations with times. I get a sense I'm moving towards something vague and beautiful, and I have no idea what. It's almost like I'll eventually end up in a dream of some sort. I've got plenty of "dream images" locked away from rocking between sleep and wake from when I was really young, that sort of haunt me and emerge every now and then when they're triggered by a thought/idea/music.
I have a stupid question...if you are intj, which is TiNe....how does your brain "always act with Ni"? Are you referring to it as your 8th function?Quote:

This is somewhat similar to how my INFp sister described it long ago. I can't remember what she said exactly, but I'm pretty sure she "sees" how time will move on.
@anndelise
Yeah, I had a fever and had taken some woozy inducing medicine at that time. Even I don't know what I meant. :oops:
:Fe:
I think you mean "what I want to do in 10 mins", right?Quote:

Somewhere in my unconciousness there is a lot of material about people and laws how they interact and behave in diferent situations, so my :Ni: has a capacity to it and it tells me when something will happen, because it has noticed something abnormal from usual. My Intuition of Time is in the ID block, but sometimes my EGO weakens and those last functions become concious.
I see :Ni: as how from A becomes B . A dynamic process. Like how young blueyesed people will become into unhappy adults. What actions will lead them to that. Like a movie is runing ahead of your eyes.
What is your type?Quote:

I had an idea for what the summary of Ni is the other week. I gotta go but leaving this here til I remember again :o
You waste our time.Quote:

There's a whole lot of stuff being connected, but somehow people tend to manage splitting up the parts so they can talk about the structure/dynamics/relationships between one part and another.
Unfortunately, we have a linear language which can't even begin to describe what's going on in the mind....whether one is extrovert or introvert. However, just like in language, if one understands the terms being used, one can hopefully learn to communicate clearer.
Baby, I just read this description. Wow. It's absolutely beautiful.Quote:

This is where Se comes in. I see dual pairs as the moon in rotation. They are one in the same but have different faces as it rotates. Se is related to Ni because it is the force behind these undulations.
