Being an INFP means that I am a dreamer. I think I change my life passion at least fifteen times a day. I am over halfway done with my degree and sometimes I think about changing it because there are so many other things that I could be.
I see the world through rose-colored sunglasses. I try to see the best in people even if they let me down over and over again. I try to be empathetic towards everyone because I know everyone has their own battles that they're facing.
My mind goes a million miles an hour all the time. Sometimes, in crowded rooms, I am so in my head that I can't even hear the conversations that are around me.
I am usually a nervous wreck. All the time. If I bump into you, just know that I will apologize a little more than necessary.
I don't like to be seen. No, I won't try out for a solo. No, I don't want to do a presentation. No, do not put me in charge of anything. Let me fade into the background and watch everything else around me. I don't want to be the center of attention.
Yes, I need alone time. I enjoy solitude. My happy place is sitting in a quiet room with either my favorite book or Netflix.
I did overthink that text message I just sent you. Did I use the right emoji? Did I misspell a word? If I use a period, will they think I'm being too serious?
I also overthink the text messages you send me. Oh, they used a period in that sentence. They must be upset with me. What did I do? Let me send fifteen exclamation points in my next text so I seem super happy to talk to them.
I love art in all of its forms. Take me to a museum and I will stand in an exhibit for hours because I'm so amazed at the talent of the artist. Give me a book of poetry and I will be quoting it for the next week in all of my tweets. Send me music to listen to and I will admire each and every beat of the song.
My friend group is small and that's how I like it. I keep my inner circle very tight. It's not that I don't like people, but I enjoy the presence of people who don't exhaust me. I like to surround myself with people who are easygoing and kind. So if you're close to me, just know I don't let very many people in.
New situations scare me. If I have to go to a party with people I barely know, just know that I will be preparing myself for the next week for the event. I will go through every single situation that could happen at the party and plan out best-case scenarios and worst-case scenarios in my head. If the negatives outweigh the positives, I may just cancel on you last minute. This is a flaw, and I'm sorry in advance.
Procrastination is my biggest enemy and my best friend. There isn't anything more satisfying than putting off a project until the last minute. My creativity sparks as the deadline gets closer! It's not a problem, I promise.
I wear my emotions on my sleeves. If I watch a sad commercial, I will cry about it. If a song hits me, my first reaction will be to cry. Actually, I spend a lot of my time crying over things.
Overall, I am an emotional, procrastinating, introverted and creative human. I didn't ask to be the way that I am. I'm still pretty happy to be an INFP.
