    What do you mean exactly?

    Anyway, I know that some INFPs think that they're INFJs and vice versa.

    What do you mean by "they think they are"?
    I mean we either test INFP or INFJ, not both at the same time. SO why would one think they were the other??!?!?!?! O.o

    Because most people just go with their MBTI test type and don't bother to look into it further. So they assume that's their true type. But it's not always.
    I've noticed that a lot of INFPs score as INFJs and vice versa.

    True. When I go to INFP forum I start feeling weird because I want to interpret and overanalyze what other people post and also direct others on what to do. Feels out of place there - I would not be able to pass as an INFP :(

    but I can at times pass as ENFJ, ENTP, and even INTP a little

    My personality type fit every description I could find on the internet...so I just went with it(and it didn't fit the others).

    I am pretty much an "evil" INFJ right now, I display all the "bad" stuff of the INFJ that's on the personal growth from the personality page (as well as all the good stuff, except those that contradict the bad) ;)

    Haha yeah I can understand how you feel and what you mean. I mean, I feel like no one except the people on this forum who are INFP's can relate to me at all.
    I don't think I have ever met an INFP in real life, I wish I will one day.

    That is why we are loner and sometimes hermits, though. No oen really understands us, but we understand everyone. Reality therefore gets boring. We want to escape.

    So let's say that someone looks at you and says they understand you and everyone else. Are they wrong, or right? And what makes you any different?

    Hmm well you guys aren't that uncommon about 1 out of 20 people but being introverts probably difficult to meet. First time I have gotten to know an INFP was through an ENFJ friend. We slowly became friends, then best friends, and then when we both moved away for college we corresponded for several years. INFJs and INFPs can make some excellent penpals and thus preserve friendships through many years of separation.

    Also, man, you guys thank posts a lot. Somebody just made a thread - I open it - and there are already 5+ thanks on there lol. That is amazing show of support.

    Well we INFPs see the world and people thru rose colored glasses, and usually only see the good in people.
    We think everyone has good in them, and that's how we understand everyone.
