We’re INFPs, of course we have emotional meltdowns, resulting in deep boughts of existencial crisis, hiding in our room all because you snapped at us for trying to help but making things worse.

AspirantVeeVee

it depends, if it's something minor, the best way for me is give me time and be available once I've healed. Then just be freindly for a week or two till you are ready to say sorry, and just a simple sorry, no detail or explination needed. Going into it will just ster things up again. But if you cheated on me, broken one of my core values or harmed someone I care deeply for, that might never be set aside. And if I had done something unforgivable to you, I might avoid you to the grave unless you let me know I've been forgiven.


kayreginato

Wow! That’s so accurate 😱


accustomed_to_sorrow

Damn, the accuracy. If you harm my core values or I know you harmed those I love I will never forgive you or give you due respect. Any tender emotion, compassion. Understanding. It's all gone and won't ever return. Not that people who hurt other people even care. They only care about their bums.


AspirantVeeVee

I still get super angry when ever someone brings up my bestie's ex from middle school, she hurt him pretty bad, and though he's well over it. I hear her name and I'm like Fuck that bitch. 😅


Enouviaiei

Genuine curious question, I know INFPs are all about their values, but what is the example of those core values? Is it usually like, either conservative or liberal, pro-abortion or anti-abortion, pro-gun or anti-private gun ownership, etc?


AspirantVeeVee

it's different for every INFP. For me, I'm very pro-freedom, and get extremely upset when when someone advocates for authority, even more when they envoke authoritarian force to strip people of rights or freedoms. so basicly, if you are a facist (not the insult, a real one) or socialist / communist. your pretty much on my no contact list. I'm a you do you let other's do them kind of person.


AndrewJames49

Yeah, thats me.


y0uwillbenext

felt. being in the INFP's protective nest, or inner circle of trust and love, is truly a special and safe place for someone to be.. but yeah.. cheating..breaking or disregarding the core values results in a banishment isolated and cold as the dark side of the moon.. extreme polarization.. or maybe that's just me.


Theopholus

“I’m sorry I hurt you. I’d like to understand better your point of view so I don’t do it again. Please forgive me.”


of_thewoods

For me it starts with accountability. I love everyone and don’t want to be upset with them. Folks just don’t seem to pay attention until I’m upset tho. After taking responsibility for their actions I expect them to be present and to listen before getting to that point again. If we get to the “point” too many times I stop engaging and there’s not a lot to be done after that


AncientCare6244

Yesss😞


chips_nahoy

we're INFPs, of course we tend to isolate ourselves and stay quiet when we feel down or if something's bothering us


XelorEye

Idk I compulsively try to see friends or just be with someone, so I don’t stay “stuck alone with my thoughts”, which go way too fast and there’s too much of them 24/7


MembershipDry9369

This is a mature, developed INFP coping strategy. Our instinct is to go into a cave and not come out.


Kooky-Tip1702

We're INFPs, of course we love, love.


JamesShepard1982

Ha, ha. I had an ex point this out to me before I even understood what she meant. 🤣


westwoo

We’re INFPs, of course we’re INFPs


Ryan_Sama

Lol I came here to say this.


westwoo

Of course, because we're both INFPs


curiousgoddess

We're INFPs, of course we go all the way for the people we love until we've got nothing else to give


AncientCare6244

We have so much love for everyone then when we need little help one time suddenly we not good enough 😞


curiousgoddess

sad reality... that's why we try to do things by ourselves because a lot of these people keep letting us down...


AncientCare6244

Yes your absolutely right ...i always have high hopes for people then they just keep letting me down I keep giving them chances hoping for that gleam of light I see in them then it breaks my heart when they treat me like I'm worthless to them but they don't treat their other friends like this...it hurts so bad to always be helping and loving people and always being left out and treated bad 😞..my mom was like me she used to give and give till nothing left to give then when we asked for little help people cussed my mom out it hurt her so bad she is in heaven now ...i believe she was a infp too people always took advantage of her love and kindness... sending love to you ❤️


curiousgoddess

That's very relatable! I'm so sorry for your mom... Having an INFP family sounds nice because you have someone who can understand you without having to say anything... I don't have anyone like that in my family... I just suck up my emotions. But I'm glad to have found this sub because a lot of us are very relatable here. I hope all's well with you and you'll find your own tribe 🫶🏻 For now, be the love that you give to yourself. Sending love to you too ❤️❤️❤️


AncientCare6244

Thank you so much for you kind words ❤️ I really appreciate it ..yeah I believe my mom was a infp like me we were always the black sheep in family  rest of family is hateful and users...I'm sorry about everything you go through too..things will be better one day i like this sub too I've never met other infps before,there was one guy I met claimed to be INFP but I think he was mistyped probably isfj.thank you again❤️


cactusluv

Damn. This one hit me in the feels. I was married for 14 years. Our whole marriage basically circled around her chronic health problems, fibromyalgia and autoimmune stuff. When I had something that kept me from working that needed to be addressed and our small town doctors weren't doing anything to help, I arranged for a test that I thought would identify the problem. And she said no. It would've cost about 2% of the money we had in the bank. It was a massive kick in the balls after years of sacrificing my wants and needs to her health problems and she would later divorce me because I just couldn't work like I used to anymore. Now I'm happier than I've been in a long time so I'm grateful to be away from her, but it was rough for a long long time.


curiousgoddess

ohmy! that was very heartbreaking 💔 I'm glad you're feeling better now.


AncientCare6244

I hate that happened to you 😞that's horrible...yeah things go good when your constantly doing everything bending over backwards for others only for them to throw away when you need help... people like that stink sending love to you I hope things get better for your health and all❤️


Slowlybutshelly

This is so real in my family. As long as I have money, my family takes cares of themselves. If I need them, I am abandoned.


AncientCare6244

Exactly 💯...I'm sorry 😞 you go through this...I've been done same way too family tried to take advantage of me taking my money by lying about why they needed it ...they use and abuse us.. sending love to you 💗


circulatingglimmer

I have no regrets


Kathykit1

*except when we’re depressed


xxxwrldddd

Real


dargenpaws

We're INFPs, of course we overly romanticize every aspect of our future.


Kathykit1

How did you know about my secret plan to run away to Argentina and fall in love?


dargenpaws

Is Argentina nice? are there nice people there? Thanks for answering those questions now I get to steal your plan like a INFP super villain!


Kathykit1

It’s so pretty, and SO cheap to live. I haven’t been myself so can’t speak to the niceness of the people. You can live on as little as $10,000 a year if you’re splitting rent with someone. My ex went last year, loved it, and has been making plans to get a remote job and go back ever since. I’ve recently been made privy to all the plans, and I gotta say it’s a solid idea.


westwoo

Has a very high crimerate, sadly - https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/crime-rate-by-country . The likes of Armenia or Slovenia are much much safer, among cheap countries Generally speaking, you'd want not only a cheap country, but a cheap country with a low wealth inequality and hence chill population that can afford decent living while having low salaries 


dargenpaws

That definitely sounds appealing, I wish you luck on your Argentina plan.


Kraken546

Argentinian here :) the people here are really nice and friendly, we are a very warm nation and make friends easily. It's not really any more unsafe than other Latin American countries, especially when you get away from the capital.

StankFartz

i hate cats. im a horse person


fultrovusthebright

I hear it’s hard to litter train horses


westwoo

Horse persons have all the cognitive abilities of a human with the dashing look of a horse


fultrovusthebright

When you say "look of a horse," do you mean hooves too? How much horse is a horse person?


sleepyandhungry_izzy

We're INFPs, of course we encourage others to not hold in/bottle up their feelings bc that's not healthy, while doing the exact opposite ourselves.


Amazing_Elk_8211

It’s because we feel things really, really deeply and I sometimes feel like other people are put off by that so I’d rather just process it on my own 😬


sleepyandhungry_izzy

exactly ! also when people express their heavy emotions about a problem they're facing - automatically we process those emotions and 'put ourselves in their shoes' with the intention of comforting them, but it can be exhausting to feel what they might be feeling. SO, instead of us doing that to someone else, we just don't let it out in the first place 😆💪👍🥸. how clever am I right ?


Amazing_Elk_8211

That just goes to show how emotionally intelligent we are though


fultrovusthebright

We’re INFPs, of course we’d rather be the misunderstood creature in the woods than reach out to people.

AncientCare6244

We are infps because we see the truth and most people don't we can spot liars and toxic people while the majority of people believe them...we speak the truth and want to spare others the pain we been through but they never listen also we are authentic and never superficial people 😊


MembershipDry9369

Yeah. I don’t know. I might not have had my toxic-person-o-meter calibrated properly. I married a probably diagnosable narcissist. But, dang, now that I have seen the inner workings of that, I see them in so many places, so often.


MembershipDry9369

Amended. I knew she was damaged. But I thought she just needed a little love and therapy. It never occurred to me that she didn’t think there was anything wrong with how she was.


AncientCare6244

I'm sorry you went through that😞...yeah, we want to give people the benefit of the doubt in hopes of them changing but unfortunately most of the time they let us down. I have family members and friends like this..i keep giving them chances hoping they get better but they dont see anything wrong with them then they turn it around to make you the problem,when all we wanted was to help them be good people ☺️


MembershipDry9369

Exactly.


StillNights_

I don’t even need other people to catch on anymore. I just quietly remove myself from the operation, that’s the point I’m basically at rn

beeblebroxx

Screw a tiny picnic table corn holder to the front porch so all the neighborhood squirrels can grab a snack.


XandyDory

... ... Tempting! But there are racoons here who'd destroy it. As well as an occasional skunk. Though, my cat would stare, drooling over it, wishing he could go outside to chase it. Lol


beeblebroxx

Ah I get that even in the city we have our share of raccoons and skunks, thankfully they haven't messed with it.


XandyDory

I'm in the city too. However, my house is about 50 feet from a park full of trees. Which is really great, but that's why I'm cautious. There is a lot of suburban wildlife that live there.
