      It is an abbreviation for a Myers-Briggs personality type -- Intraverted/Intuitive/Feeling/Judging type. The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator is based on Carl Jung's personality types, but is not identical to them.

      I am an INFJ, although I am I/E, F/T and J/P ~ borderline Intraverted/Extroverted, borderline Feeling/Thinking and boderline Judging/Perceiving. My inferior function, without question, is Sensate.

          I read that INFJ's are the empaths and make up 1% of the population, so I am just seeing if 1% of the population is making up 99% of this tribe, that's all.

              that actually sounds like my husband and me, both INFP, but we've not felt the need to take the test in years. i do think it changes over time. i don't think the description works just for infj?

              i'd also be more inclined to presume it was an aspect of the aformentioned letters - say the I and the F or the i & N.
              when i took the test, i got the whole business of infp being the most rare etc etc.
              i think that changes. perhaps now another one is more rare and INFP more common, but at least here i seem to run into people with similar qualities.
              if i were out to make a species with the most survivability, that encased qualities necessary for enlightenment, i'd personally spread the traits across as many different subsets of humans as possible. that would increase the probability that things like "Empathy" would survive and be brought to prominence in future generations....

    I can not tell you how hard it is to find a friend who is an INFJ. There has only been a few but they all became best friends of mine.

    I believe that there are three types of thinkers that make all who live in this world. Leaders, followers, and independents. There are very few people out their who are thinking independently like i am.

          I didnt even take the test and just looked at the definition. These type of people are very independent, they are very analytical and they understand human behavior and the primitive mind. If that is not and INFJ, then I dont really care, I just know that there is a small group of people that I have discovered to be very rare and unique in how they think.

          Amiablehermit, the reason you are hating the outside world is because you have great insecurities. You are so attached to your body that you believe in the illusion that you are it. And you hated what you thought you were so you changed it at a price, to think it would solve your sorrows, yet it only brings more negative feelings.This is NOT the place to vent out your negativity cathy, this is a place of learning and healing. I am fond of this site of the people, but there isn't a damn thing I am fond about you. Even though we both came from the same origin, you have lost your path, and you're leaching off of good people who have good souls. But these people dont bark back as I do because it brings them to your level, so the prefer to not talk at all and I DO NOT LIKE THAT. You need to get off of tribe.net and get on life and reconnect to what you really are. Your soul is unhappy, stop bringing others down to you level for normality, like me. I am sick of it.

            Just letting you know that not all INFJs think you are friend material, that's all.

            As for your odd analysis of me, I have no clue what you are talking about.

              However, I will apologize for my rudeness. My cat is dying, and I have had a very tough week all the way around. Sometines grief comes through as anger. But empaths know this.

                Bummer, i am sorry for you.

                Yeah, when my mom was dying I had a couple of outbursts here and there. It is what it is, I don't think anyone will be overly offended. It's part of how you feel.

    I am INFJ...re: the previous discussion about INFJ/INFP, I've seen different numbers from 1%-4% on both, and seen both labelled as the "most rare." I guess we are supposed to feel special, but honestly that just makes me feel weirder...

        I am an IN.. but the other 2 categories differ at times.

        I know that about being 1% and sometiems that helps me inunderstanding how I differ fromothers in reactions perceptions. I am gited and highly intelligent.. not a typist tho, and quick to get a clear sense of things.

        If you can hold onto the happiness about you rcapabilities and then understand hwo others may think then you can use this information to help you in work etc...

            No, I said that, and I was being honest because your demanding and egotistical PMs did repulse me. Now, maybe the thing to do is to just stick around polite company and have a less personal contact ~ hell, I can't respond to PMs on tribe anymore anyway, so that is a moot point. LOL! But i have to tell that you are not proving much by making these silly errors.

              You call yourself highly intellegent? Why??? because you made two accounts and you've been on tribe.net for 5 years barking off all of the real intellegent people? Aimiable, dont you understand that you make this tribe.net misserable. From day one, joining tribe.net I saw you snapping at other people. Tribe.net is your life, and you try to rule it. This is a place for you to vent, when other people come here to learn and connect. Amiable, you need to take a grip of your silly ego, delete your other account (cathyq), and understand that the world, nor this site, revolves around you. So get off your high horse.

                ? As I said before, contact my friend steveo on the astrology tribe for "credentials." We live in the same state and talk on the phone. Honestly J., you are sounding paranoid.

                    This is absurd. I never said that I met him ~ I said we talk on the phone. We both live in Virginia. Sheesh.
