Do You Feel that You are Rare?

[lunniey]

According to the Portrait of an INFJ personality it was said that

“Only one percent of the population has an INFJ Personality Type, making it the most rare of all the types”

So what do u feel? before u know about the INFJs things, have u ever felt that there aren’t much people like you? Do you find it hard to find someone that has a personality like you?
Share everything about this here.. okay! :happy

I do admit, I thought there were people in this world somewhat like me, but where I work and near me, I thought I must be the only one that does or acts the way I do. I am not comfortable in big crowds of people I don't know well, but if it's people I know, that's different. I am not the one who normally starts a conversation with people I don't know, but I try, but find I don't have much to say or afraid of saying something and sounding stupid.

well as an Introvert one either, i think i know what you're feeling.. but actually.. somehow that is our weakness.. we should let go all of our negative thinking before we want to start a conversation..
just be more confident :)

Amen Lunniey! I just need to stop worrying about being judged or what people think. I think that way sometimes and think "Oh well, whatever they want to think..." Then there are times when I am more reserved of what I say..

The percentages are globally inaccurate, an assessment would produce a more accurate numeration for INxx type is:

FJ: 0.75-0.9%
TJ: 1.1%
FP: 5.2%
TP: 4.4%

Verifying data... Variables assessed.. Rough estimate concurrent.
Thank you all. Wish there were more INFJs and INTJs.

The lyrics to Nowhere Man by John Butler Trio come close to how I feel:

I’m in, and I’m out
Alien from somewhere else
Don’t know what the hell
I be yelling about
But from here and there
I belong nowhere

Seem so many northern man
Now things don’t seem to be the same
But they are some how
Cause all my life I lived on the outside
And now I’m in, but in nowhere

Nowhere Man x4

Strangely enough I’m more
like lone trees
I love those forests
but alone better suits me but
I love to share just like the pollen loves to be free
And flying in through the air
nowhere better suits me

Somewhere down deep inside of me
I guess I always wanted to
be part of that way
And now I found that in my family
And now I’m happy just to be

Nowhere Man x4

There are threads for that sort of thing

Just saying...I feel so rare it's almost like being alien.

[NephilimAzrael]

I'm an alien, im a legal alien. Im an Irish man in Scotland.

well less than 1%, that is rare, and I certainly feel very unique. Hard to jabber away with people, especially when I am allergic to alcohol so I don't get lubed up and loud in the crowd. Very quiet instead, looking for an interesting one on one. Tend to live in cyberspace, don't appear as I am all the time. Changing appearance. Find relationships superficial with most people. Always looking for someone whom I can dive in with. It's always such a treat when that happens. But I am communicative and assertive at my job as it requires it. Sometimes the only time I feel "right" is when I am playing music.
