Because it's happened many times to me. It's when you guys do the "head in the clouds" number.

What's the "head in the clouds number?" I'm just trying to clarify. Is it evasiveness/non-response or idealism or silliness or something else? I'm asking because I think ENFPs are generally quite astute and get exactly what you're saying and may choose to ignore it if they don't agree.

That ditzy personality that emerges with little effort or even pretense. Too much cuteness for me to handle. Takes everything I have to resist its hypnotic effects!!

He lives Wow, haven't seen you around in a very long time. Welcome back...don't run away or go into hiding, bad boy.

I really don't know. I'm not an ENFP. I guess those times when you guys get lost in your own thoughts. It doesn't happen often. And to be honest it really doesn't bother me that much.

Either way, this is the lamest subject I have ever been asked to clarify.

I probably annoy people with my overly optimistic attitude. You know, when someone brings to the table all the terrible things going on in life and Im like "build a bridge and get over it" there are good things coming, and focus on those. People would rather wallow in their despair than hear me trying to build them up to get over it.

Well I do get lost in my own thoughts sometimes, or go on a Ne ramble, so I can see that.

Most ENFP's I know are amazing and caring people
It should be noted that I'm only talking about 3-4 of the inconsiderate ones I know.
That being said. Here goes...

- Some of them tend to take my venting sessions seriously, hold me to whatever words I say when doing so, and don't realize it's just how I'm feeling at that particular moment... -__-
- Some of them project and assume everybody handles feelings the same way they do... which leads to the next point
- When there's an unsettled matter, some tend to close-off and ignore the problem instead of resolving it. (This isn't good for any type I suppose.)
- Pet Peeve: When I express in seriousness how upset/sad I am about something, and they just go "oh, he just needs a hug *cracks joke*"

I suppose a lot of this stems from Fe/Fi clash, though I've noticed IME that most ENFPs get the differences.

I'm guilty of this and I've read that it's quite common among ENFPs: avoiding conflict and just trying to pretend it doesn't really matter rather than facing and resolving it

Seriously, i can't deal with those kind of people. Now don't get me wrong i'm not always over the top with optimistic thoughts, but when i have to listen to people talk about things that we ALL deal with and make that molehill into a mountain, la la here i come. Besides, i could be in la la thinking about the nice bubble bath oil i just bought, leading to X number of things that follow ;) anywho i believe some people live to wallow in their own pity, they don't want to hear the truth, or help themselves, so, not likely they will want to listen to you try.....i usually look for the closest exit if in this situation. Checks phone and sees i have to suddenly leave ;)

The older I get, the more I don't think ENFP particularly annoy me quite so much as emotional immaturity does...and that's not really type related. As I age, so do the ENFP around me, and thus the emotional immaturity we all had is fading and everybody is getting more tolerable.

The reality of your 30s: Your back hurts more but the people are more interesting.

I don't have much problem with this honestly. I always think pessimistically when facing a problem or situation, then I tend to see the other side of the coin. So luckily, my optimism is balanced. And Fi clashes..yes. I've the tendency to take things personally (which I really hate), though now, I've improved (still improving) to care less on that. [ENFPs who now genuinely have the 'i don't care' attitude, should have probably faced this stage.]
Procrastination..another bad trait in me,which I'm trying to improve too, cause this is really harmful for me on a broader aspect.
There are many more characteristics which I dislike in myself, some I've embraced while some I'm trying to improve.
