More Myers Briggs!!
During my theology orals, my professor commented on how my take on a particular methodology was very Jungian, and asked if I was familiar with him and his archetypes and I said no. When talking to a friend about it, they pointed out that Jung's theory is the basis for the Myers-Briggs. Silly me. So on that note, here's a little about dealing with the little INFP that I am! If anything, I'm sure you guys can smile and nod on some of these.
How to love an INFP:
+ Appreciate my uniqueness and sensitivity
+ Be patient and supportive listener
+ Respect my privacy and my need for emotional intimacy
+ Be reassuring and gentle in your words and actions
+ Try not to force decisions too quickly, or bug me about being messy.
+ Respect my feelings and never demand that I compromise my values
How to spot INFPs:
+ Idealistic with deep yet private passions
+ Creative and imaginative
+ Intially hesitant and cautious
+ Original, even funky dressers
How to communicate with INFPs:
+ Share genuine beliefs and values to establish rapport
+ Respect their slower warm time and need for privacy
+ Emphasize the ways ideas will benefit others
