THE 5 WEIRDEST HABITS OF INFJs (that we usually keep secret)

Where are you

❤Thank you!❤

I wonder if this is an infj thing... someone asked me if his guitar was loud enough during the songs he'd played. I remember being kinda of confused by the question because I had never listened to music as individual instruments, just as a whole song. I had to listen to the next song and just pick out his guitar playing and try to gauge it's loudness against the whole band. That made the song too much for me, suddenly noticing 5 instruments instead of one song. I told him he was loud enough because he needed an answer. He made me realize I don't listen to music the same way he does

I place my fork over my spoon and place them at the right side of the plate signaling i am done eating 😂

I loved this, it hits so hard!

Usually when I’m tired it goes something like this:
Me: I’m worn out!
Someone else (my dad prolly): you didn’t do much today!
Me (thinking) yeah but it wore me out mentally 😆

People wear me out

I like you

Yes, I don't get how to stop the mindful obsessing. Maybe it's not a bad thing.

Thanks for speaking truth about how it is for us.

I like INFJs.❤ I met one online and chatted with him 5 hours.:) It was an unforgettable experience.:) I felt him immediately.:) I'm INFP. I never met him or saw him. I don't know it were his pictures or not. But it was beautiful ❤️.
We met each other on a dating website. He made me Complete.🎉 Than he disappeared. First time in my life I felt so much someone. Sometimes we see each other profiles on the dating website, so I know he is good.:):) I think he's keeping an eye on me too.😅 I like you J. 🌸You are miracle 😘

Whenever i found a pennies heads up on the ground i would put it in my shoes and at one point i had about a dozen pennies in my shoe haha

Когда гуляю с собакой то мне нравится рассматриаать мпленькие камни которые лежат на дороге. Особенно когда они вымыты дождём.. В каждом красивом камне я вижу рисунок созданный природой, фантастические миры и историю Земли.. Была бы моя воля то все бы домой принесла для странной коллекции 😄 но к сожалению нельзя)))

Вспомнила один свой странный ритуал)) Это устоявшаяся привычка засыпать под одну и ту же музыку.. Это словно колыбельная песня для меня когда моя душа улетает туда где ей комфортно)

INFJ’s need to withdraw to re-energize their batteries:) INFJ’s need to collect things, and need books, and magazines next to their beds. They are learners, and artists. They may cook, garden, paint, etc. The INFJ must have a peaceful environment to live and work otherwise they may break down. INFJ’s regret their mistakes, and often struggle with guilt. They can fantasize about what they should” have said in an argument. INFJ’s are perfectionists with their work, and they compete with themselves. INFJ’s work hard to be understood, which ends up depressing them, because other people don’t really care.

Does anyone have any experience with being an INFJ and being bipolar? Its brutal cuz i end bring the one to throw logic away. If something inside makes me so mad I will internalize everything and thats that. Youve had your chance but I am the punished. I end up unsure of how to feel or what have you. Childhood permited SA coupled with being an INFJ was not fun.

Like at this point in my life Im a 26 yr old man/boy whos basically a failed contractor, living with my mom after 15 years of avoidance because i have battled my inner emotions about my family. They have been unfair and unjust and the battle comes from balancing how i feel about and especially the logic of what im considering. Namely i have hated my entire family without expressing it and actually refusing to acknowledge this. Living with my mom has gotten me to realized the harm im causing with and the aura im emmiting. When I graduated away from my family i was then on my own roofing flooring metal shops not finding anything fullfilling and that was important to me. I have an insane manic episode and my mom says i can stay. Now this is my current only option besides homeless shelter which im actively considering, i cant heal in a place that i ran from where my mom never mended anything. Ive been trying to find my footing while my siblings steal from me and cry cuz their father touched me. Like Im summing things up but i am literally the eldest and they all expect to have an example of superman to live by. My entire life theres been this weight on my mind crushing, that i am the one responsible for teaching them. My mom hasnt parented them, and im basically morally obigated to fully discover myself to become a brother and or father. They dad molested me gets sent to prison for 40 years we get word hes about to die of cancer soon and my brother is bothered by it and goes to me. Like i am constantly triggered i get good news the dumb fuck will die but to me its to soon, and you wanna talk to me about how he never played baseball with you. Like i dont ever shut people down but i advice despite my rage. I wanna tell him go talk to the mother you stole. I feel this way about all of them yet i know they hurt no one and if you have no parents no one has the right to blame you. I am well aware that im in the wrong with those feelings and i am hard on myself for it. Its a really complicated situation and I know that living here is not wise. I thought that while i needed help, i realized how lost everyone else is, i mainly just wish my mom would have gone to therapy to be able to resolve these issues. She lets us fester and fend for ourselves. I have a family of theives and i know for sure because i have stolen. Most of these bad emotions are becausr of my mother and i know she wouldnt be able to handle what i say. Ive been the silent peircing one that makes her squirm and regret saying hello. She knows i think ill and i dont know what i am to do about that, I dont even see her as my mother. My mom showed me Buddhism and gave me the time to listen to me. The biological womb that i exited and entered the world from doesnt give a fuck about me it was more about being her being a victim from "raising" 6 kids. I know thats an tall fucking mountian but thats why you use your fucking intellect and go to therapy for you 5 kids not 6, eldest deemed you not fit to raise and abandoned everyone to the poison.

Idk man shit is rough

I’m infj from Nigeria and being different can be really difficult I’ve criticized even when I’m trying to the best version of myself since I have so much insight I end up trying to become like others and that has seriously affected me

It's good to know that my weirdness is OK, as well as being
boring, anyway Thank You!

i almost made someone mad, because of point 1. she said i’m too analytical to her. 😂

Spot on! Just glad to know there are people out there that can relate.

Theft of ideas and jealousy of very well said in the workplace esoecially

Quirks? Where do I start???

I count stairs by two as I go up or down them, but they have to end even. So, if there's an odd amount, I will go up one and then by twos.

I catch myself randomly counting to eight. 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,1,2,3...

I bust out in song for no reason. 😁

I talk to myself, a LOT! I talk to my dogs and they talk back.🤣

I call myself a magical unicorn because I'm so rare.

I'm INFJ-A, RH-, left handed, have an extra vertebrae, and central heterochromia.

Pin. If you dont suppress half of yourself and your truth in social situation you will not be drained. But you will drain some people. If you understand

That one does grind my gears when people literally copy an idea or repeat what you said right back to you! As if you don’t know where they got it from

I've been experiencing extreme bullying and harassment in the workplace for three years. I've developed PTSD. Do you have a transcript of the video? It's spot on!

I just disappeared from everyone. It's exhausting

So much in this resonates with me and my experience. I've not tested but I'm fairly certain I would fall somewhere into this category. That part about trauma becoming art sure is something I'm exploring in my writing. One of my habits is putting things in place. It doesn't have to be in order, just in a place. I live among leavers who always ask me where they have left something because I can remember where anything is placed in the house: its either in place or out of place and I know their habits which reduces the options.

I always put my left shoe on or off first.

I am INFJ and I've got an OCD, I thought I am weirdo in this world, but apparently I'm not 😅

Is this inability to be manipulated why we can't be hypnotized? Also my lucky charm is a fortune cookie thing that says "you have just found your lucky charm" lol. It's goes everywhere with me

Latin keeps the devil away. 😊

My rituals are leaving one bit of food on a plate, clicking/flicking the corners of fabric and hating locked doors.

Leviticus 19:28 (NKJV) You shall not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor tattoo any marks on you: I am the LORD. ✝️

It took me 60 years to go 100% on my gut and trustmyself

I have an unhealthy obsession with order and structure. It gives me comfort.

The fact that I am an INFJ that has ADHD & OCD the ritualistic behaviours is making a bit of sense… 👀😶‍🌫️ when I highlight, I highlight in either a pattern, rainbow or one colour (if I have limited access to coloured highlighters…)

I don't like working out/going to gym before or past 9pm and get easily upset when I haven't done my daily workout on time.

We can usually figure it all out with scary accuracy. True, I will not be manipulated. I will not be bullied.
Funny, I took the test so many times just to prove it wrong.
I have been outcast so many times in my life leaving me wondering what is it about me that people don't like.

Doubting the test, lol. I think I took that test 5 or 6 times over a 2 year period. Spot on, lol.

This is great information! I also found myself laughing because that pattern thing is me!!! I can’t help myself- patterns are so obvious. 😂

Mine is carrying a thors hammer around me as a necklace. I could say everything that has brought me and it means to me but there are too many words and you already understand.

A kind stranger I just met offered me a tiny glow in the dark dinosaur figurine, maybe 1 inch tall. Anytime I feel lonely, I take it to bed with me and set it on my bedside table. The mild light it gives off is very soothing. It reminds me of the day someone showed me a rare kindness. Usually, I do the giving.

A neighbor’s cat that I’d never seen before run up to me outside my house while I was giving my grandkids a hug goodbye and it insisted I do the same for it! Cats love me everywhere…I think that’s weird and lovely. Lol

Rituals it's true, only me know it it is only brief rituals I don't know to other infj😅, if I fail in this ritual I do it again in other rituals, I make myself believe that I won. It works...

The habbit of writing a long comment, And then erase it when i want to send it in. No exception here 😅

Wow!! This is 100% what I have been living with insensitive narcissistic family members. Such persecution and abuse! Thank you for explaining why❤

You can feel people pull away when the conversation goes too far for them😂

When I leave my home I say bye love you be good! I have to say it out loud before leaving. Lol.

I became a silversmith to satisfy my inner magpie, now I'm a broke gemwh**, lol😅😅 but I have lots of pretty sparklies 😅
