Relationships...

Which makes me want to go back in the early 2000's before people went crazy.

Jiga is a mispronounciation of Giga so you are correct but also the gif/jif is correct

ENFP here. The OP’s need for depth in relationships is what I’ve sought all my life. Surface is all very well & good, but knowing someone heart, mind, body & soul, & more importantly being accepted & understood by them in every aspect…that’s the ultimate.

I’ve met a surprising number of INFJ’s (admittedly some have been guesses on my part) over the years. My best friend is INFJ. And once you really know one, you start to become more able to find them in the wild. They are my favourite kind of people & who I most enjoy spending time with. There’s no bs with an INFJ, authenticity over being popular…although the two INFJs I love most have spent so much of their lives as people pleasers.

Anyway, all this to say, I have an absolute treasure of a deep relationship with an INFJ. He is my mirror & I, his. He prefers to show his love rather than announce it. I’m constantly blurting my feelings but other than that, we are very well matched. It took time, half a century to find each other, but take heart that there are other people who aren’t merely surface. And hopefully you’ll find one who is just as keen to know all of you as you are to know all of them

Haha...don’t speak for the cohort based on your necessarily limited experience. Before type, people are people, and the usual BS applies.

INFJs can be duplicitous, manipulative, inauthentic, violent, and many other things, just like any other person.

Cheers,
Ian

I stand corrected no bs with the INFJs I’ve met, rather.

I do think infjs are more likely to be straight shooters/talkers, especially when a bond is already formed or when asked to do so
So in this way, it is true they tend to have more of a "no bs" type of delivery in conversation

In addition, the ones I’ve known/I know well are neurodivergent & that comes with the territory. It’s like, eww, small talk? No, I want to discuss philosophy, science or delve into what makes each other tick. One on one conversation is also the big preference.

Small talk is good to see if someone knows courtesy and etiquette before diving into the deep stuff.

Small talk has an art to it. Dispense with it entirely at your peril.

It has, after all, some real utility.

Sure. It has a purpose…& I can do it & do it fairly well.

But I don’t have to like it
