Is it silly to think that when I meet someone I'm compatible with, I will know it just by looking at them, or with minimal interaction?
 
not silly at all. . .I can feel it. . . my heart knows it. .

Happens all the time!! My pitfall is that I have this reaction equally strong in either direction about people. I will avoid people or write them off in a heartbeat if I so much as even sense there's "something" about them. I don't even give them second chances.

This is how it is for me too. Sometimes when I meet someone I get an uncomfortable feeling about them, and I just won't talk to them. I'll avoid them at all costs from then on. Or I will like someone immensely without quite knowing why. There's just something there that speaks to me. This sort of thing can be hard, even exhausting. But I also kind of like it.

Same here. It's really cutting me off from everyone, lately. I do have sort of a crush right now, but, right away, I couldn't see it working out long-term, so I decided not to pursue it.

hell yeah. but its been a long long time since I felt it. i think its been what.. 3 years? LOL
 
I used to do this, but have learned that if I want to have friends ... I need to take more time with people. It's something INFJs do not have the energy to do. I think I felt more of a need to do it while staying at home with young children. I thought I would go mad if I didn't get some irl adult interaction. A couple of my best friendships now were very awkward in the beginning and took time to procure. So many people hold back b/c of trust issues and trust doesn't happen overnight. :)

The risk and the overall experience is worth it.

Oh, and I only get lust at first sight. Nothing else. I can't tell (maybe YOU can, but I can't) exactly what that person is, who they are, or how they operate just by looking. What they say is 02349234891237892898909056x more important.
 
I think those of use that feel our way through life are very suseptable to this, , I meet someone adn if I get the feeoling that they could be someone I could bound with I will. . because I trust my feelings. . more often then not, I am correct. . .

That's not first sight if you're doing more than just looking at them.
 
I have learned it is very silly. Snap judgements about people are often disproven upon further investigation. What can the superficial really tell you about someone? People can hide in plain sight. Dig deeper, and I would caution you not to rule out the possibility without taking a shot [MENTION=4717]subwayrider[/MENTION]. C'mon, live a little! ;P

I used to and then I just said "f**k it!" and stopped. My time and own life are too important to me to spend chasing people who barely acknowledge my existence.
 
I get it all the time, I intuitively know body language well enough to realize whether a person has a compatible personality or not. Any time I get a strong negative feeling I try to give them a chance, but my feeling so far has always been right about those. It may be more instinctual like animals fighting over territory, at least thats the closest comparison I have to the negative feelings.
