Anger.
Rage.
At myself.

I'll do all in my power to correct it.

These feelings won't show though. It will be deeply rooted under a seemingly calm exterior, but will haunt me down with random shudders.

If there isn't a way to correct it, that's very bad. It might result in escapism of this reality.. and possibly self damaging acts.

My answer is presumably if i have failed someone by mistake (accident) and this someone placed their trust in me, and haven't harmed me in any way, or driven me to fail them. Also i have to know that i failed them by actually finding out.. and not by repeated guilt tripping from their behalf...

Can I know more about the specific situation?

Not unique to ENFPs but they have more trouble with the Guards (SJ) making them feel guilty than anyone else. As an NP I can see the nasty the manipulations the Guards and Bullies (ST) try it on to make the Ferrets feel guilty. They will even engage a pack of Dogs (ISTP) to reinforce the guilt feeling.

The Possom (ENFP variant nearer ENFJ) will hide in hole when chased by a pack of Dogs.
