Being an INFP is hell - society is not designed for us

Oh crap. This sounds like me.

Are you a woman? Women can get away with it. Men cannot, unless they choose not to participate in certain aspects of society (white collar jobs, dating, etc).

Huh? Women don't need white collar jobs or dating?

What century are you inhabiting?

Women in general can get away with being passive / flighty / idealistic much more than men can. Yes, even in 2016.

If it walks like a jamin and quacks like a jamin... well, you get the idea.

Jamin lacks the introspection to make this thread.

I think that statement right there seals the deal. Anybody lurking around here long enough to claim to know what jamin lacks, and yet posts identical drivel about women & dating, is by default jamin.

Believe me... if there was more than one of you like-minded, weak-spined tools hanging around the boards, we'd have noticed long before now.

Sniff my pouch, BOI

Maybe you should have been a writer? Lots of famous authors, especially fantasy, INFPs:

Shakespeare

Tolkien

CA Lewis

Orwell

JK Rowling

George RR Martin

Camus

And many more!

well done.

I'm sure Shakespeare to a Myers-Brigg personality test.

Being ENTP is no walk in the park either

- Extraverted iNtuitive Thinking Perceiving

(Extraverted Intuition with Introverted Thinking)

ENTPs are idea people. Their perceptive abilities cause them to see possibilities everywhere.

The Visionary

Apparently it's not as bad as PNSO?

INTJ here, the more analytical version of an INFP, I suppose. The world in general is tough, but I've just settled in and have no trouble ignoring everything out there that doesn't quite work for me.

Give it some time and keep following what you like to do. You'll find a nice place that works for you.

PNSO ? Please amplify and illuminate.

The M-B Set:

ISTJ - The Duty Fulfillers

ESTJ - The Guardians

ISFJ - The Nurturers

ESFJ - The Caregivers

ISTP - The Mechanics

ESTP - The Doers

ESFP - The Performers

ISFP - The Artists

ENTJ - The Executives

INTJ - The Scientists

ENTP - The Visionaries

INTP - The Thinkers

ENFJ - The Givers

INFJ - The Protectors

ENFP - The Inspirers

INFP - The Idealists

If you aren't a ESFP, ISFP, ENTJ, INTJ, ENTP, INTP you're life is probably going to suck. Just look at the descriptions above. By description, you're there to serve the more succesful, creative, and talented people in this world.

How about you stop letting some online survey tell you what type of person you are. Maybe then your life will improve.
