Yeah.
Yeah. Ideals are the enemy, I mean Oscar Wilde said it, and I also did too in my 16types adventure story. And I don't know if it's the only constant thing, but it's just how we work. We don't really intellectualize ourselves in the way that other people intellectualize us. We're too 'raw' for that or something.
Yeah. Confidence is a tricky thing. Without fear, there can be no courage, but confidence is more of something you either have or haven't, I think. A lot of it is just genetic, I think. Most people need other people to feel good about themselves.... even if they don't think so or not. I can be courageous at times, but I'm not very confident. =p
Yeah, but not a greater capacity, but a greater need. It has to be this way because of how vacuumized and 'removed' Se/Ni is compared to Si/Ne, like I talked about in another post. INFps do benefit a lot from genuine compliments, and honest encouragement.
Yeah. All true. It's sort of like this one big bang gonzo throat fuck strike chord with no tempo. It's powerful, rawly, but it lacks direction and finesse. It's really crude.
YES YES YES YES very true. That's why I roll my eyes at people who say I need to go out and more and do more things. LoL why, when I'm already so accurate generally. It's usually some specific Se-ish thing though, that I have to realize why it's important, otherwise I just wanna write gay stories all day in my room.
Yep. Even if you are a magical, imaginative guy- nobody wants to be thought of as a weightless airy fag with no true core.
I have a big heart, but I will personally bad mouth ANYONE (and I do mean anyone), but then again all gay guys are like that. When society has told you for so long that who you are is 'inferior' to others, you're kinda oblivious to other people's pain because you're too busy dealing with your own. They didn't give a fuck about me, I ain't gonna give a fuck about them! =p We're victimishly selfish like that. And we love to gossip. My friend said I shouldn't assume that other people are out to get me though, maybe she's right, but I can't help it. It's not like I want you to be all fuzzy teddy bear ish if you don't really mean it. (ugh people being 'fake nice' to me is something I can't really stand)
But I don't think you should be afraid to hang out with me, just because I will be brutally honest about you if you break my heart and do anything that emotionally hurts me. =)
It depends. My parents are alphas and we clashed on Ne valuing vs. Ni valuing, but we also have shared Fe and Ti to fall back on. Soo yeah they annoyed me sometimes, but having shared Fe/Ti helped me feel at least comfortable. Ideally, nobody can help me, I mean really true down rawly help me- like another Beta can.
The way I look at is, I will only cry for myself, unless I know for sure that you cry for me. Why would I worry about anybody that doesn't worry about me? Delta matrydom really confuses and annoys me. And yeah IEIs will test other people's love by being unnecessarily withdrawn - it's more of a game to get you to throat fuck us though.
I agree with everything here except being good with poetry. I think that's more of a technical skill, that's not type related. Poetry isn't like other forms of art and writing, it takes a lot of practice to be good at IMNSHO. I think a more accurate statement is 'INFps are fantastic at writing.' Which we are, although there is many forms of writing. Maybe infps are more likely to be a fantastic poet then uhh, an entp but it's hard to say.
Probably. Where is that in your brain anyway? The middle part of my brain usually hurts the worst, whereas the front and back feel the best.
