INTJ vs INFJ - which one are you? 

We now have 4 INFJ Mugs!!! You INFJs are taskmasters... one day we will design a mug that lives up to your standards... until then... here's what we've got - teespring.com/stores/love-who ~ Nathan

As an INTJ, I can be social, but it's forced and not natural for me. I need to prepare myself to do it and I get tired after. If I'm not well in some way, the last thing that I want is to socialize.

INTJ cheering someone else up: change the direction they are facing in order to set them up for happiness in the long run, and then throw pebbles at them to get them to go in that direction

I'm an INFJ married to an INTJ. As a (very) general rule, I would seem more approachable and more ready to listen to people. However, my INTJ husband can flip a switch when he decides to be friendly and I may be secretly judging people for being illogical, even as I am listening with empathy and affirming them. Sometimes we INFJs are jerks.

I only look like an extrovert because I'm very friendly and will engage in long conversation, but typically I'd rather just be alone, lol.

I'm an INFJ and friends always think I'm an extrovert.. But I'm really not

I’m an intj who wants to be a counselor. My cold logic helps detach others from their emotions to solve their problems , or so I think

even the fact that i'm doubting myself to be an infj, proves that i'm an infj 🤷‍♂️

Yep definitely INFJ, however, just a very introverted INFJ, because I have no friends, but I'm still empathetic to a lot of people and I will listen to them, but no one wants to listen to me...

I am an INFJ who wishes to live a quiet life.

The intj in me is revelling in this isolation period. I wish every day was just me in a room by myself. It's just unfortunate that people are dying for me to finally achieve my dream

intj, yes i could be mistaken for an extrovert because i can emulate it. I can't connect very well with people (i can feel love only for a couple people), but I can make It look like i care for people even when I don't, so I can act social when I want to. I do value my Fi a lot and it's almost like I use my Te to satisfy it.

Day 6 of quarantine: I'm on my 7th bowl of frosties and I'm starting to hallucinate what the rest of your set looks like.

LOLLLLL I'm INFP married to a social INTJ. This had me laughing. "If a person is feeling bad, it's because they have a problem & when that problem is solved, they'll feel good." 😂😂😂 So true. Like if I'm watching something sad and I'll cry and feel so deeply. He'll be like, "Why do you keep making yourself cry? Stop watching those sad things & you won't cry." 😂😂😂😂 lmfao he thinks crying is a bad thing.

I’m an INFJ, my mom thinks I’m extroverted and always want to be with other people, one time she forced me to go to a party, I came back and fell asleep in three minutes and didn’t leave the house for the entire weekend

(INFP) I'm very fortunate as I've had relationships with both an INTJ and an INFJ. The video is a great description of both types. As the unpaid therapists of the world, INFP's can get an intimate understanding of those in their lives. INTJ - She would tell me how she felt every emotion people are supposed to feel but couldn't formulate a way to effectively express them. Frustrated at times, she would express grievances to why she couldn't do so and through her expressions would do the very thing she felt she couldn't. My emotional way of looking and describing things things helped her feel acknowledged and "gave her world depth". INFJ - Her presence alone was soothing. I would listen to her future forward way of thinking out loud and in doing so she would understand what and how to structure the things she was going to do next. I could tell she felt that someone was listening to her for a change as she became more relaxed with each passing plan and thought. For either one, I could do this tirelessly. When someone benefits from your time and makes progress in their lives as a result, that is an investment paid back with interest. (What can I say. INFP's are hopeless romantics after all)

Whenever I take Myers Briggs tests I either get INFJ or INTJ with an almost 50/50 spilt between the F and T functions. Depending on the situation will depend whether I lean towards one or the other, but either way it seems to be a sucky place to be in terms of any decent level of social contact and life progress.

As an INFJ, when I go to make a program, I always think about the human component and how to make something as user friendly as possible. Making it is one thing, making it intuitive and easy to understand is an entirely different beast.

I'm an INTJ. I can manage to be outgoing in order to achieve something, I can emulate it. But I usually assume all people need to solve their problems in order to feel better and this makes me come across as cold, although I mean no harm. I'm not an empath to people's feelings at all, and this caused me to lose a lot of "friendships" because I just couldn't understand why someone would want a hug and kind words instead of a solution. I can't comfort people for the life of me lol.

Infj is close to me, but i still doubt my infjsness

Now, usually, an INTJ wouldn't mistake himself for an INFJ, we are just too rational to consider the possibility of an Fe in our functions. I understand that, in moments when an INFJ is in "logical mode" (which they do frequently) may mistake themselves as INTJs. Also, I've always found that INFJs has some sort of ... aura around them, a feeling of zenitude that you can't find elsewhere. People automatically like them (in general), which is the polar opposite of the energy emitted by an INTJ. Also, to the external eyes, a friendship with an INTJ can be, and I quote some people I lost, "exhausting". I let you interpret this as you like in the comments if you want. Nevertheless, I know 2 INFJs girls, they are great friends and I'd like to have more of them (I'm describing them like Pokemons but you get my point)

Most accurate to tell if you’re INFJ or INTJ: If Nathan manipulated you into subscribing by making you feel bad for not doing so, you’re INFJ

Yep. Definitely INTJ. Zero friends and incapacity to relate/communicate to anyone except INTP's/other INTJ's lol. Also, this pandemic has highlighted that my Type-A overprepared Doomsday Prepper lifestyle was highly rewarding and worthwhile investment. I'm ecstatic and hyped in a pandemoniam/chaos situation. Btw, your eyebrows are LEGENDARY.

Society doesn't expect women to hide their feelings and it expects them to be caring towards other people. Maybe that is why more women are INFJs than INTJs. I think I am an INFJ, but some of the traits does not suit me - I love debating, in most cases I think that decisions should be based on logic, oftentimes I hate when people sugar-coat things and I can also be kind of selfish. I definitely do not have the problem of "putting other people over yourself" that so many other INFJs seem to have. In my thoughts I am often very cynical, but I do not show this because I don't want to hurt people. Actually I try to repress most of those traits I have mentioned. This is because I care deeply about being likeable, and those traits are not very socially acceptable - especially not for women. So maybe I am truly an INTJ who just tries to be more like an INFJ because that is what society wants me to. Let me know what your thoughts on this is:)

An INTJ *ALWAYS* knows we’re INTJ, our whole lives before the point of us figuring out we are INTJ is a series of saying “what’s wrong with people or why are people so stupid or why won’t people just leave me alone?” So we search for the answer like Mulder & Scully until we come against the *hard truth* that we are in fact the X-File as we suspected (in that we actually use logic to make decisions and live in the world). I was a Human Resources manager, I know it seems impossible for an INTJ female. And it was hard to connect to people in the way they ‘thought’ they wanted. I think my poise and perfect systems in terms of managing people freaked them out. But oddly when I left and when I see those old employees in the world today they *always* say how at the time they didn’t ‘like’ me but now that they have worked with other idiot managers they realized I was actually one of the best managers they’ve ever had and miss working with me. I think people get *freaked out* by just how efficient and effective INTJs can be because most people can’t do both with the same precision so it makes us kind of unlikeable in the moment, but once people have a chance to step away and see how their world was sooooo much better precisely as a result of our INTJness they realize how great we are to have around even if we don’t like to talk about your dog or the weather 🙄 So in truth you’re correct Nathan: if it *works* better people *will feel better* they just don’t know that’s what the real problem is 🤷🏽‍♀️....people 😔

I am INFJ and my husband is INTJ. I loved this video. Understanding the difference in the Fe and Te of these types really has helped our communication bc other than that, I feel we think very similarly otherwise. Also "lurking in their own lair, INTJs can work in benefit of people of but working in the process doesn't need (or want) other people around" made me laugh out loud. This is so apt for him :)

I have taken the test 14 times. I get INTJ-T 50% of the time, and INFJ-T 50% of the time. My thinking to feeling ratio is always just a couple percentages either side of the halfway point. I relate to both very strongly. Does this make me INXJ-T?

Lurking in lairs! That is truly, where we live. This is in so much alignment with the video I just posted today about the negative aspect of being my type. We are so immersed in “the thing” and getting it to work in the way we see it, it’s sometimes hard to escape. Also thank you for touting the inaccuracy with personality tests lol. Also thank you for using the functions for accurate triangulation🙏🏻.

I feel like I'm changing personalities between INFJ and INTJ, depending on the situation. I've understood the video very well, and yet I still can't decide. Edit: After learning cognitive functions, turns out that I'm an ENTP lol Edit2: After learning cognitive functions even more, turns out I'm an INTJ

This video made me clear why I am not an INFJ as I used to believe. Thanks for explaining the meaning of second ('responsible') cognitive function, how people experience us. In my case it's 'Te' rather than 'Fe'. It was a great and informative video. I feel shocked. I'm reprocessing my whole life since I watched this episode last night. My "dis-functionalities" and my strong desire to believe in Utopia make totally sense now.

INFJ with Autism here 😗🤘🏻 (which probrably doesnt help with the social skills department)

Great video! I'm an INFJ who has been called a counselor/therapist by so many people throughout my life lol. As I grew, I started valuing Ti more and using Fe less often which made me feel like an NT type, but I never valued Te more than Fe. I think the only times I engage in logical arguments is when I'm in a group of friends among which harmony exists and bringing up an argument won't affect the friendships on the long run. Are you going to add more hoodies?

It’s generally nice to watch some non-quarantine content - nice upload

Your first function is your inner Hero, it defines you. Second, your inner parent, it makes responsible choices. Third, your inner child, it motivates you. INTJs have Ni hero, Te parent, and Fi child. We have a heroic sense of Ambition, we use Pragmatism to make responsible choices, and Morality is what motivates us. INFJs have Ni hero, Fe parent, and Ti child. They have heroic Ambition, use Empathy to be responsible, and Logic is what motivates them. INTJs want to make things more efficient because deep down we are motivated by a strong sense of right and wrong. INFJs want to help people and manage their feelings because deep down they are motivated by a desire to learn and make sense of the world. I hope this was helpful.

I'm an INFJ and I've constantly thought if I was an INTJ because I gravitate towards Ni-Ti and completely shut down my Fe-Se. I'm working towards exercising my extroverted functions because I find that when I use them I get better feedback from people and I even feel motivated to use them often for the Fe environment I can be involved in and create (to feel part of something). Quite the opposite of INFJ, people probably think I'm an NT when they talk to me for the way I automatically refer to Ni-Ti and come off stoic and then I feel bad I gave them a misunderstanding and try to change the issue if I can (which is indicative of Fe). There's honestly so much overlap in behavior with INTJ, but I think a surefire way to know is to really study the functions and learn to spot them in video examples and apply them to yourself. It can be difficult and take a lot of time, but it's worth it when you finally know because then there's room for self-growth. Learn as much as you can until you know it. There are tons of videos out there just make sure you know that they're giving you true information. If you're an Ni user you'll most likely know or get the feeling that you're one of the two types just because Ni can make you feel like an alien. I can't find another way to describe it, it's almost like you're on a mission or something and it has to be done.

"when maintaining harmony in a blackout of great trouble, your torch will beam. when not maintaining harmony, your torch will glare"

I went back and forth for years between these two types and finally was typed as ENTJ which was a shock. Being a loner and very independent, I didn't realize I could be an extrovert. Once it finally clicked, though, I can see it. I was that little kid at the curb selling vegetables while everybody else was off playing. I get bored "having fun" and love doing yard work. The highlight of my summer is when I work myself half to death selling fireworks and make thousands of dollars in two weeks - why is it so satisfying? I don't know, lol One of the big cues (which I was missing) is the way I can immediately think of the steps - 1, 2, 3, 4 - to reach any goal or complete any project. If I have a boring day ahead, I think of it as a project and break it into steps. But I'm definitely not the boardroom, sports car, suit and tie type, at all.

It's extremely easy to know whether you know you're and INFJ or INTJ... INFJ by definitions are thinkers they are not feelers. Feelers are those who are "introverted feeling" Users, for the rest we only refer and care about other people's feelings, we understand them and manipulate them, and we feed off of that, but that's it, our own feelings are buried, I have saved so many people who I don't give the slightests of Fs about... I speak both languages and I am fully balanced about everything. The first and only thing you need to know the difference is... Do you want to save humanity? and other questions like... Do you feel like you have to change the world through human hearts?... Can you feel what other's feel?... It's too easy.

My husband and I are intjs and i love the mugs! I will check them out! Thank you for your videos. It helps us describe ourselves better when others wonder why we're so different.

Feel like I bounce between both, I’m good at relating with people and trying to help them solve their issues but I’m not good at showing other people my own emotions and issues. I don’t talK to many people, but the people I do talk to I’m very close with. I appear cold hearted at first but open up to certain people rather quickly. In general I often feel left out and foreign when comparing myself to others

INFJ: Context INTJ: Consistency

I'm an INTJ with an ENTP shadow side and an INFJ persona. I write arguments and evaluate decisions for judges as a living. At first I really struggled to apply empathy in my job. Over time an INFJ persona emerged to better handle the tragic stories in my field of work. I spent a lot of time debating whether I was an INFJ or INTJ because of this, but when I was faced with stressful situations and the ENTP would come out to deal with it I would always default back to INTJ, not INFJ. I further spoke to my professor (clinical psychologist & Jungian psychoanalyst) about my debating and he brilliantly was able to relate to me on my level (did a degree in Logic & Philosophy) and asked me if I were a Schopenhauer (INFJ) or a Nietzsche (INTJ). And that really cleared things up for me. Sometimes it really helps to be the presepctive of someone with a deep understanding on the topic. My professor doesn't subscribe to the whole MBTI world, but he's written countless books on Jung's archetypes and has a deep understanding of his works.

Te-practice oriented Ti-theory oriented Fe-shared preferences Fi-personal preferences As a very logical INFJ(even though I’m not deep into MBTI so I may seem illogical when talking about MBTI, and I’m not good at English), I find myself even more Fe than those more emotional INFJs, since I’m highly emotionally suppressive, and that suppression can of course only towards my Fi. So I found it very amusing when Patrick Bateman said he “has no emotions except for greed and disgust”, because that’s all emotions one can get, that’s what emotions essentially are. If you are truly emotionless you will be Buddha. Empathy/Manipulation is not an emotion but a simulation, and this power only fully releases when you are completely emotionless of your own-you need to fully empty your own heart to fully simulate others’ hearts in all possibilities(which means, flawlessly). So extroverted functions will eventually become other people’s functions instead of your own, it’s a part of your brain but it’s not yours. It’s a UI for other people to interact with your mind, having that selfless(literally) part in our brain makes us social animals. Being social animals means we can’t be complete individuals, some degree of hivemind is not sci-fi it’s already here in our extroverted functions. So choosing between Ti-Fe and Fi-Te is actually choosing either to keep your own T and throw out your F or to keep your own F and throw out your T. It’s a big difference between Ti and Fi, which one is your true heart and which one are you willing to sacrifice.

Ok this solidifies Im an INFJ, thank you Lord (If you exist) for the video.

INTP with INFJ bestfriend who is a Ti jumper, she's unbelievably smart for her age... not as smart as me but very close. haha

Yea I’m still intj just because I can lurk in my lair 😂 but good gravy, it does get a little lonely, I look up to infjs and wish I had some INFJ friends in real life. Team Ni!! Great video Nathan!!

"That's just really bad" - now that is something I never though I should hear an intp say...

I prioritize harmony now more than I used to because I found out the hard way (over and over and over) that coldly disagreeing with people in typical INTJ fashion is an extremely unlikeable quality. I don’t need many friends but I admit, I also don’t want people to hate me either.

Hah, Nathan, you're the best.💜 I just wanted to add something (bc i'm finally pretty sure about my type and i'm able to accept, that i'm...pretty sure about it). I'm a jumper infj and my best friend is an intj. We are amazinly similar. We have the same interests, the same approach to philosophy and religion, similar experiences... I can imagine that telling these two types apart is veeery difficult. I've noticed that the main thing that Ni-doms want to do is getting into other people's heads and understand their motives, it works for infj's and intj's as well. The main difference is that intj's are very good at optimizing things, they want to reform the world. They care about people but in slightly different way. They use Te+Fi so they sometimes...tend to think they're always right and force others to leave their comfort zones... It's actually really cute😂. They like ordering around and, suprisingly, their Te makes them generally less confused about their type. They are also less expressive, their faces seem sometimes like masks. Infj's usually want their face to express something (they tend to mirror feelings of others), intj's don't do that. Ok... I'm done. Sorry for this essey😅

This helped but honestly made me more confused. I heavily relate to a lot of aspects of both ends so you may be right most of us are towards the middle. That may be because of our overall motivation towards self improvement so we try to make ourselves as well rounded as possible.

intjs have sort of a median social function ability and don't go to extremes socially. infjs have a wider bandwidth and will isolate for a time period, then be the hit of party...then you won't see them again for six months. btw- this video is probably nt overload for anyone who's not an nt type. lol

INFJs who are caught in their Ni-Ti loop also lurk in their lairs often.

One of my closest friends is an INFJ, meanwhile I'm an INTJ. We have many aspects in common, and we often talk about the challenges of daily life. But I'd noticed that we actually have a distinct approach towards human contact. He's better understanding the motivations and emotions of other people, but I have problems doing the same. I love this fundamental difference, and I think we spend a very nice time learning from each other

very informative and to the point, one of the best videos describing subtypes on RU-vid.

You are amazing at explaining things and making them very clear. At first I had a hard time listening to you maybe because you speak so fast but now I really like the way you organize your talk and how you explain the whole thing in a video that is not even 15 minutes long. *I like things short, concise and clear✨*

The greatest thing about this time in self isolation? I can be alone for ages without having to feel unsocial and can still satisfy my Fe function by analysing characters in books, TV shows and on social media.

I hope this comment gets through to you, as I would really like to hear your opinion. So here is the gist of it. Being an INFJ that probably had some traumatic experiences during childhood (nothing too serious and I might be over-dramatizing here), I concluded that hard facts / logic would be a better base to work from. Basically I've consciously jumped to what you describe as the characteristics of the INTJ, while at the same time understanding this was not my innate inclination. With no doubt, it was a defense mechanism, to protect myself from getting emotionally injured. I think this shift mostly happened out of chance, due to some events and as there was no similar person (at least to my thinking) in my environment, I constantly doubted things that otherwise I would not. Therefore some youth problems were not properly addressed as I had to work completely on my own. As I grew older I had a weird deconstruction of what the self is in contrast to the collective (I vs we). Rather than differentiating and putting them on opposite sides, I've figured they are better being on the same. I can't list the number of times I had a breakthrough into understanding others immediately after understanding a flaw in myself (and vice versa). In MBTI words, my Fe was drastically enhanced through self reflection and understanding. I may be wrong as I am not an expert in MBTI, but that does seem like a weird point of convergence between Fi and Fe. From what I've read, Fi is a blind spot for most INFJ and I can certainly understand why. I doubt however it is for me. I still subconsciously put it on the "back of my head", but I certainly know now how I can reach out to it. Main reason is because I had to at some points in my life. In that regard I do not completely agree with this split of functions as most people would say, or, I'd wager that the shadow functions are not just meant to be detrimental, but surprisingly beneficiary and tied (on certain aspects) with their counterparts (like little bridges to cross over). The messiah complex, additionally, was severely alleviated by putting myself on the same level as I would put other people. The hard logic also alleviated the dizziness of emotionally sensing people around me and would work as a compass on how to treat and judge those emotions, for the benefit of everyone involved. In a way, those two things, logic and emotions seem to have fused in my head, something I occasionally considered a blatant bias on my part to avoid the harsh conclusions. It is obvious however that I had a very strong affinity in understanding others from a very young age. In the end, I wouldn't desire reality to step over people's desires, but I also don't want desires to step over reality. Although it is considered that INFJs will pick the first and INTJs the second, I think they would be equally wrong if they were to adamantly stick on one option. Human desires can be simply stupid at times, but also reality is not the constant factor thinkers make it out to be. If we were to ask for example, whose reality? Mine? Yours, or the worlds? As those 3 potentially differ and if reality is supposed to be unchanging, then certainly two must be awfully mistaken. But is that really the case? Two approaches might differ, but also work at the same time. On the other hand, can we not argue that this pursuit of the "unchanging" reality has been a bust since the dawn of time? How many people sought out this hard, unaltering truth causing millions of deaths to its name? Nazis had a reality set-in-stone. So did the Soviets and so many others who could not see the possibility of being wrong themselves. How many lives, how much better would our life be if people realized they might be wrong? How many times has the truth/reality of man been proven wrong? Constantly. Isn't it a hypocrisy on behalf of the thinker, albeit subconscious, to disregard his numbness to emotions as inferior, only to raise as superior something that, in the end, can be equally fragile? Some months ago I've noticed this quote from Carl Jung: "In true wisdom, there is no conflict between emotion and logic". In my honest opinion, MBTI is just a set of different starts. Random events (and potentially a predisposition) sent you over to one side, but that should not mean you are only meant to be this. I do believe that this struggle for "fusion", for development is what we are meant to fight for in the end.

For years I'd get INTJ in various test results but something didn't quite match. Now I started getting INFJ result as well. In recent years I became spiritual, way more self accepting and healed myself of childhood traumas. I think my INTJ personality was a defense mechanism while the INFJ is actually my true nature as a way more relaxed, confident and empathetic person. I wonder if others have noticed a similar transition - from Thinking to Feeling - following a healing process.

Your video was quite balanced and covered quite apt points. Many a times I've noticed typical INTJs on youtube who just say that INTJs remove feelings completely out of their decisions, etc which sounds totally illogical; In fact, that can be a source of inspiration for many of the activities that INTJs undertake.

Always thought nah I’m definitely not an INTJ until this... now I’m thinking maybe?! Possibly an INTJ who was too uncomfortable with the INTJ-ness so started acting softer and more wishy-washy. It’s not very acceptable to be an INTJ as a female. But then part of me thinks would an INTJ actually give two hoots what anybody thinks and try to accommodate their wants??? Back to the drawing board 😂😓

Man. You always hit it right on the nail, Nathan.

INTJ here. That was a really neat video. One of my best friends (of which there are few, of course) is an INFJ. Your description of the two types was quite insightful and brought to light why he’s such a good friend. I’m sure you probably get a lot of requests on here and don’t have time to humor them all, but I was wondering if you’ve done a video comparing INTJs and ESTJs. In particular, I’m curious to learn the dynamics of a relationship between the two be it a romantic relationship, friendship, or a relationship in a work setting.

INTJ here, I can see you work hard on improving yourself and delivering your message as harmoniously as you can. Strong balance of NE-SI and TI-FE. I subscribed. Also your girlfriend is ESFP?? that’s a powerful combo

I love your explanation the most on INFJ & INTJ here on youtube. 💖

Love the mugs guys, excellent idea

All well said, very logical. Some people are more satirical and pop psychology with this subject.

I always enjoy and learn so much from your nuanced, insightful videos, guy 😄!

INFJ.Never go to a Te strong with feels. My experience is I’m not looking for solution but understanding and acceptance and maybe some good humor. Te strong listens, criticizes and prescribes solutions, leaving me cold, irritated and well, hollow. Hey what does Te blind look like(pun intended)? I wonder if it is the critical parent(6th function) that can send us into the infernal grip?

again, so incredibly helpful. thank you

Morning Nathan! The Sweater.....and a haircut :) Well you have made my day! Thank You! Melissa:)

Excellent comparison dude!

Truly truly one of the best videos of the differences between INTJ and INFJ. Thank you so much!

Thank you, your comparison videos are very helpful! Even though their function stacks are very different, I would be curious to see an INFJ vs INTP video.

And thank you for making these! :))

I don't like how at 7:35 he frames the notion that when a person is feeling bad it's because they have a problem, and when that problem is solved, they'll feel good. That's not a belief so much as it is observable fact; there is a reason why people feel bad, thus there is a "problem" that once solved will indeed make them feel better. I don't see how anyone with two brain cells to rub together could dispute this. People don't just magically feel bad for no reason, and if they did, it would be because they had a problem that caused them to magically feel bad for no reason, presumably some form of brain damage or brain anomalies.

So I am INTJ and this describes me and my best friend. I am an alien in social situations and he is a social genius. Thank you for this, I was quite literally telling him about this extroverted side he had and he recalled being given an INFJ result but was unsure. Him and I perceive identically but I could not figure out what made him have this extroverted side that I didn’t possess. He is charming and I have charisma and it is an alchemical balance. Honestly, it’s so nice to have this explanation.

Love your discussions!

Probably more than the bloody good info on this channel... I luv the dark sarcastic humour.

INTJ: Beth Harmon from The Queen's Gambit INFJ: Joe Goldberg from You

Good video. Do one on INFP and ISFP or INFP and INTP. These types seem to have similarities from the outside but are pretty different.

Great video Nathan! Simple and linear

Thanks for bringing up the jumper idea. I was a highly Introverted INFJ as a child preferring Ti. It was because I felt unsafe in my environment (Detroit) so though Fe was important to me in the sense of avoiding conflict and staying safe it was as you say treated as a daemon function. I knew this myself but it's great to hear that this model has been examined by others and is seen as valid by some.

Ooh gorgeous hoodie!

So well explained. Thank you.

Test: INTJ. Heart: INFJ. :D Thank you for this video! :D

LOVE YOUR MUGS BY THE WAY!! I AM DEFINITELY BUYING 2, FOR ME AND MY BOYFRIEND!! (i wish one of us was an INFJ cuz' this unicorn mug is killing it... pun intended)

Thanks for a clear presentation of this two MBTI types. I used to struggled identify between this two, but I have come to peace with my automatic impulse or stronger preference is leaning toward Fe-Ti vs. Te-Fi, even though I am always very analytical and love the challenge of problem solving I have embrace my INFJ personality.

The quiz on Human Metrics that gives you the percentage on each of your functions actually helped me understand this and my placement a lot better. I’m an INTJ but my Thinking over Feeling preference is only 3%, which is why a few times recently I had been getting INFJ. Makes perfect sense.

I am in my "Lair", that's why when COVID happened it's like the situation is normal for me, favorable even, I've already worked in NYC for my first job, I did my part, I did not only give them my marketing plans but also I gave them business plans, but they let me go before the virus situation got worse. So I'm just day trading now, stress-free (from people), and everything is based on my decisions and my visions. Hehe. Work isn't really stressful, just optimize the system to make it efficient and you're done, people make work stressful. I'm pretty sure everybody can agree with that to some degree. I love this vid, I also got to know what's the main differences between me and my ex-girlfriend.

Always some new informations and Entertainment here. Great Video again🏝️🙃

This was very helpful! Thanks!

That point about socionics you made is true I am INTJ and I am an artist and I try hard to be good with people, I’ve even done door to door sales and worked in a clothing store. My INFJ friend is almost done writing his book and likes programming, Math, and physics 😝

Thank you for making this video :D (it did actually help)

INTJ. This is probably the most insightful INTJ commentary with several nuances that made me say, "exactly!"

I totally relate to the part of, looking to find a common ground of agreement, even at my own expense. Awhile back, that changed ... I actually had a reality check when I was in conversation with someone and MY perspective was to do what was right ... a term to be negotiated ... and eventually agreed upon .. Where I was told, he was concerned of HIS interests & what was best for him. I still remember saying to him, I hear you ... but if that's the perspective we're coming at this with, who's looking out for what's best for me? And in that moment, I realized I was the only one that would. I realized then, that I needed to change and start thinking of what are my interests in things & not so concerned about MY presentation of what "appears" to be fair.

okay, I am laughing way too much at this one. guess I'll buy a mug. seriously though, you are obviously well acquainted with this theory and talented at explaining it to viewers. tks

Clear! Most clear things explanation ! INFJ here! I sometimes just feel too connected with ppl I’m tired. It’s nice that INTJ value improvements in physical system I admire that cos I am weak at this

...and I love, LOVE INTJs. And enfps. I love them too. But I have never found INTJs to be cold. ISTJ, yes. But not INTJs. They never come off this way to me. They come across as if they know exactly what they are doing at every moment of their existence. They make every single action or inaction seem so intentional. If they don’t want to talk to you, they mean it. They are actually the most easy to relate to, for me. I can be anything I want around them because they are so internally driven, I can never flatter myself enough to think they even give a damn about me, in terms of whether I please them, or let them down, it’s the best. I can just be me, even the weird parts. And it’s fun to get to know them. They are very authentic to the core. No bullshit. -infj

Hey, the mugs are beautiful. I especially love the ENTP and INFP. I have some feedback for the INFJ mugs. Both of them are kind of jokey options, I personally would prefer something more serious/symbolic/inspiring. ^_^ I hope that helps.

I always thought you came across as INTJ and I have watched since Lu started the channel.
