Siamese cat

Both actually haha.

You're so funny.
=)>

I need that. V. important.
=D

You! I am saying hi to you.

Thanks! I'm glad you liked it

mmhmm

Oh, that's nice. Do you want children one day? (I am assuming you do not have them now.) Children really are wonderful, I'm particularly addicted to babies! But I would never want to sugar-coat it: parenthood is work! It's incredibly rewarding work but yes, it is work and I am so fortunate to have the help I do, and to have people in addition to myself who love my children.

My boys are 3 and 6, and I wouldn't say I am totally successful at juggling things. I have lots of help - my husband is very involved, we have an excellent day-care provider who cares for the boys from her home while we work, and my parents are nearby as well. It is possible to juggle things, but it's not easy. I constantly worry about them, and miss them very much, (except for those moments I'm releived to have a break! LOL!) They are old enough to tell me with both words and actions that they are thriving, so we do what we have to do to make ends meet. I feel grateful and fortunate that we're able to do so.

Thank you! In some ways, yes, working is easier than staying home full-time. Honestly, I would like to work part-time, for me, that would be ideal. I also should say that I have two very active young boys, as children get older, I think it is less demanding. I love them to pieces, however!

No, I don't believe it is possible to be two types at the same time, and it would actually be unnecessary. We are not limited to only our top two functions, I feel that is a misconception in MBTI practice. For instance a person will be seen as articulate, or Directive, and then automatically be thought of as an Extrovert or a J. But it is not how much one can speak that makes them an extrovert, and it is not the ability to be directive that makes one a J, because we essentially all have this ability. In that same regard, an INFJ is not confined to Fe judgment, they can, and do modulate to Ti in order to also use a form of judgment based on personal logic. Therefore it is entirely possible to have an INFJ that has well developed Ti, however this does not make them an INTJ as well. The INFJ consciously uses Ni-Fe and Ti-Se, while the INTJ consciously uses Ni-Te and Fi-Se. The worldview and identity that Ni-Fe creates for the INFJ is significantly different than the worldview Ni-Te creates for an INTJ. So while being more than one type is not possible, it should not be considered a limitation per se, because we still have the ability to develop our other functions and adapt when neccesary. There difference is that as an INFJ, you begin with Ni-Fe and spread out to other function, while the INTJ begins with Ni-Te, and spreads out to their other functions from that "launch point."

The MBTI test is technically only checking for proficiency in your top two functions, and the descriptions are only describing a person that has proficient use of their top two function. That means that a person who has developed more than their Top two functions will more than likely test as something else, and they will contradict as well as not relate to the descriptions of types.
When a person begins to develop their lower functions, you will begin to become more consciously aware of these functions, and they actually become closer to one's identity. This shifts your perception of what you are, and what you are not (The ego and the Shadow if you will). For example, in the case of those INFJs that have very well developed Ti, they tend to consider their logical side a very strong part of their identity. So much that they are insulted that I might suggest that they are in fact feelers.

Hahaha, yes, totally! Actually almost every person I meet, I generally do it only if they are more than just a random encounter, or if I feel a certain magnetic pull that person and want to explore why I am subconsciously liking them.

Thank you kindly! I thought it was time to change it up a bit

The best way to put it would be, it is a Future career of mine. I am currently a part of a group that at the moment is writing and developing what will be the theory that essentially takes what Jung and MBTI did to the next level. Fun Fact: The mastermind behind this theory is actually an INFJ, as well as a mentor of mine who I had been training under for the past two years. But before that I been a long time researcher (hobby) of MBTI and Jungian theory as well. What I talked about in that thread was actually not a part of original MBTI, but a part of the theory that we have developed, a large portion of our theory correlates cognitive functions, to locations on the brain quadrants, as well as how our face, and body move.

I am finding the Forums quite enjoyable, I'm still working on being able to voice my opinion without causing to much of a ruckus though. I couldn't tell you how many mistyped INFJs there are thus far, I have not been on the boards long enough to have a chance to really analyze the people here. I migrated here from INTPforum, which I can tell you does have it's fair share of mistyped individuals. Many of which were actually INFJs with very well developed Ti.

Oh I think I can handle it, go ahead and have at it!

Never apologize to me for asking to many questions!

I love it, you have no idea how much.

Thank you.

Just letting you know, that I deleted a few of the posts you responded to on my blog. i didn't feel comfortable with some of the things I said, so if you don't mind, would you delete your response. I'm a bit self conscious about what i write in the blog and don't like to see some of it permanently available. Thx.

Could be the same person, dunno.

I bought them. They were all designed by different artists. I have all of the official Series 1 and Series 2, but I am still missing a ton of the more rare ones... but I never really bothered tracking those ones down lol. They were all limited edition bottles sold for a brief period of time at stores.

honestly, I'm not really sure, especially in authoritative role. I think we have to kinda...hmmm...get the person(s) out of the challenging phase, and into an evaluation phase of who/what am I, how do we work (INFJ and other person(s) ) in relation to each other, how can we make this relationship work productively???

I am CONSTANTLY doing this with my husband.

I think INFJ leadership becomes most effective when they can question people out of questioning the INFJ's strength...if that makes any sense...Because people start to realize, okay this person is not a pushover (or mean-spirited and unapproachable), but a thoughtful person and maybe I need to listen to what is being said here.
