That speaks to me. I have a lot of pictures in my phone and laptop. Only two pics are mine. And that's only because I need them if I ever want to apply for a job. Lol.
Totally! And there's barely any photos of me growing up for some reason, too. Any time we're going through family photos and a picture with me in it shows up, everyone's like "oh look, the illusive sister, in her natural habitat!" like I'm a rare species of penguin or something 😂
@@timothydao2416 yes, Tell the truth: I Don't feel compatible and will not see you again. I'd advise you to look elsewhere. It's not personal. Go fly hither and yon. Be free little bird, find your paradise. Adieu
INFJ female. Met my husband at a wake (funeral gathered). Said nothing to each other that night. Married 13 years plus 4 years dating. It happens swiftly people.
My husband is the Introvert that all other introverts are descended from. We realized, only after we got married, that we never had a first date. Ever. We just.... kinda..... were 'boyfriend girlfriend' one day. He regrets none of his tactics.
Me: 1 min after date: went pretty well 5 min after : i made a few mistakes 10 min after: absolutely everything i said was unintelligent and ridiculous 15 min after: i acted totally embarassing, he will never call again and he hated rvery minute of the date 20 min after: he hates me wholeheartedly, will tell the whole world how awkward and crazy i am 25 min after: i will leave the country, change my name, become an eremit and live under a rock for the rest of my undeserved life! Edit: Eremit, german=hermit (sry english is not my 1st language, but now at least you know what you want to be in 2 languages😉)...and thanks for all the likes🥺☺!!!
Honestly, I'm just hoping that out of the like two days I leave the house in a year some exstraverted guy will find me and take a liking to me then drag me into a unwanted friendship with him. but over time I fall in love with him and he falls in love with me too. then we live happyliy ever after.
Beanie Baby wait I wrote a basically identical comment to this and only saw your comment until after. Are we the same person? ‘I really just want to conveniently meet someone perfect for me become friends then both realise we want to be together then skip to marriage.’ I need an extrovert because I’m tired of having to talk to cashiers and waiters.
I have read that it's really good for an introvert to be with an extrovert but honestly I think I am scared of extroverts! They're just so... extroverted. I wish you luck on the two days of the year you leave the house! May your prince E sweep you off your feet.
@@KatPickles You're right! Extroverts truly are extroverted.. Being in a relationship with one scares me too.. I don't want to end up doing social group activities and such just because I have these weird feelings for someone. Na-aah...
I would say, "but would you prefer our first child to be a boy or a girl? Amelia is such a cute name, methinks." Then quietly slink back into the dark corner I usually reside in and not show up again until a few months have passed.
I find it so much more draining to push myself to interact further or try to come up with something to break things off smoothly XD I will fade away back into the dark corner I came from
@@missmadhatter1467 Honestly, some people did this to me and it can be hurtful in some cases. But since the other person is ghosting me they just take the easy way out because they just don't want to be confronted with someone being hurt. But it would be much easier and less painful actually to just end things politely. I don't think that being honest and writing a last message where you say that it didn't work out has something to do with being an introvert or not. Not doing it is just a coward move.
Yeahhh, installed a dating app for the first time 2 months ago. About 20 "likes" later I uninstalled it and went back to hiding in my bedroom the rest of the week.
The worst is when you’re an introvert dating an extrovert. When you go out together they want to stay until 2 am but you’re already tired of socializing by 10 pm. And on the rare occasion you feel like going out, they dont want to.
Me: I want to be in a romantic relationship with this person. After 1 hour texting, me: Suddenly I feel like literally terrified to be in an any kind of relationship. Let's make an excuse and hide in under the blanket forever.
INFJ here it was so stressful signing up on a dating app I uninstalled it immediately and just hope I'll bump into someone in a library or a cafe that would understand me through my awkwardness😒
Same here, also INFJ(INTJ ) I erased Plenty of Fish, forgot about Match and never even bothered trying Tinder or Bumble. Had anxiety just reading qnd responding to messages lol.
They didn’t work for me it was an absolute nightmare especially after a narcissist abusive marriage. I found my gem on a free chat site 😆 just ran into them.
INFJ here. My INTJ hubby suffered for 5 long months as he pretended to like people and parties just to have an excuse to invite me over pretty much every day. I was pretty successful at avoiding those. Then he simply confessed to my best friend how much he was into me and how sad he was that I was never around. 1st kiss was a week later and all pretexts of social extroversion were promptly and permanently cancelled. Sweet relief. This year marks 20 years, 3 countries, and 2 kids later 😁
i was finding this introverted character cute up until the kiss moment...Dinning alone is lovely by the way, better than awkwardly dinning with someone.
I hate eating out alone... ESFJ waitstaff everywhere, asking if you’re okay or if you want company... overcompensating by making extra trips to your table to check in...
@TANG WEI SHUN - who cares what people think? I've eaten alone many a time and I don't even think I saw one pity glance anyway. Better to be in no company than bad company.
Haha. I’m just starting to date and found this hilarious. As an introvert why can’t my person just show up on my doorstep? All the meaningless socializing is exhausting. Lol
INFJ here, first dates are awesome. Even if it goes nowhere, the prior text conversations weed out people who’s company I wouldn’t enjoy so every date is an amazing conversation and a new friend. My real struggle is anxiety from overthinking and getting attached too quick. INFJ habits of overthinking, finding patterns, and always looking at the long term.
Yeah, it's like, after all our screening to even go on the date, we are dealing with people we wouldn't mind marrying. :D So it's tough to keep distant. It's like, if I thought you were good enough for all the hassle of a first date, most likely I want to marry you. :D
It's true! If I don't see a possibility of marriage, I don't keep a relationship. So many don't get it. If you know you don't work and you continue to keep them around anyway, that's leading them on. Count me out! 🙅
I'm glad to see that there are people who share same problems with me and that we are not alone in this. This guy is so cool and one of few youtubers who actually understands us.
My friend is super extroverted. She met a guy she liked at a party and they started texting afterwards. He’s super introverted and never made a move. She got annoyed that he never made a move and one day told him that he was her boyfriend. He said “ok.” They’ve been going strong for two years!
One day i said hi to a nice charismatic-looking latina girl in a museum, the interaction turned into an improvised date we spent the whole evening together, and at some point when i ask her about the ring she's wearing and she drops it on me that she took a vow of chastity at her church 😅 I found this properly hilarious Especially as this was one of the coolest and hottest dates ever, we were amazing meaningful conversation and bonding with an overtly sexy sexy vibe to it, At the end of the night i looked her body up and down told her 'you know though, if i took you against your will, ... technically that wouldn't be a violation of your chastity story' and then that's how her vow died in short order 🤣
This is one of those videos where you laugh because it's funny, and then cry because its also relatable.. Conflicting emotions! On another note: that warm blond really suits your skin tone :D Oka bya!
INTP here. Our dating style can be summed up like this. Way back in the 2000s I lived and worked in D.C. as a barista and part-time web developer, because obviously my goal in life was to become a cliche, but also, hey, free coffee. One day the most physically beautiful man I had ever seen came in, which already made me nervous, but I decided I was an adult and could definitely take his order, probably, so I turned to him and asked what he would like, and instead of responding to my question he just stared directly into my eyes for what seemed like three hellish hours, but was more likely a couple of seconds, then finally gave me his coffee order (STILL making direct eye contact), in a gorgeous Italian accent. By this point you’re probably waiting for some meet cute ending, but that’s not how INTPs do things. I had never been happier to get someone their coffee just so I could break eye contact with him. I was starting to panic, but was talking myself down, telling myself I just had to give him his coffee and he would go, but no. I gave him his coffee and he asked me for directions to a museum, and began making eye contact again. This time he was even smiling. What kind of monster does that? I somehow manage to give him directions, and because I chatter incessantly when I get nervous I start telling him how it’s one of my favorite museums, in an apparent attempt to build a verbal wall between us, and when I finish he says “you have the most beautiful eyes I’ve ever seen. Would you like to come to the museum with me?” And, because I am one smooth lady who knows how to catch a man, I squealed out the beginnings of a scream, then ran into the back room.
"Let me tell you why all your religious beliefs are wrong," and "racism isn't that bad," etc....these sound like things an INTJ would say. INFJ may think all kinds of controversy, but probably not say out loud on a first date
As an INTJ, I can confirm that it sounds like something I would say on a date, but what is a date anyway? Is dating just a myth, I can't know cuz I am INTJ, we don't get dates!
INFJ here, I once got into a rant with someone in medical school that I thought science was overrated...on the first date. :D There wasn't a second. I don't know why I thought that was a good idea. I think I made an offhand comment, and then I felt like I had to justify it to not look like a fool. Good job. :D
@@StarClay666 hey what is the INTJ's most compatible type, supposedly? I once dated an INTJ, and while it didn't work out long term, I still hold him in a special place in my heart. We would have really great in depth conversations. I'm INFJ
@@timothydao2416 That's just called being close minded, my friend. You have to be to think cringey man haters on tumblr represent the entire movement of feminism, including its scholars and all its third world activists. Yikes.
"for women, if you are even remotely approaching anything resembling a reasonable facsimile of attractiveness... you will receive tons of likes and messages without even trying" hahaha lmao! so true!
I'm an INFJ and my husband is ENTP, and we actually met online playing video games when we were teenagers! I avoided the whole dating thing to the max and was successful lol
The "kissing part" was so awkward. But somehow I just love it! 😂 I hope this is the beginning of more chapters for the introvert's guide survival. This and the previous one are amazing.
I absolutely LOVE your Introvert’s Survival Guide series! You mug for the camera like nobody’s business. Your writing is hillaire. Poor Armadillos. So ends their migration. And I totally would date him. That gray cardigan! Raaaarrrrr! 💖
I can totally relate to this. The last picture of myself I have was taken one year and a half ago by a friend who was visiting, and I've never used dating apps, because yes, dying along seems a lot more appealing than meet a zillion predators or desperate men online.
Ha ha ha! "Cemetery". I personally have always loved going to cemeteries and walking around reading headstones. I think about the lives they might have had and wonder what they died from. Super funny video Frank, it's nice to have something to laugh out loud to first thing in the morning. :)
Yeah, cemeteries are interesting. The last time I was at one with some of my family members, we found one group of tombstones where we were able to figure out how old one women was when her parents, sister, first child, and husband died, respectively. Kinda sad, but interesting how much info we could glean about her life just by some names and dates.
That wig do be lookin fresh tho. Melania who?! 💁🏼♀️ Lady FJ’s gonna have no problem finding her partner in crumb. This turned out so well! You kill me with all the little details/expressions - those selfies and that totally not awkward kiss! 😂
Died unexpectedly swerving off the road. Hilarious. Frank you pull off being a nerd impeccably. Loved this whole skit. Laughing from beginning to end.❤️
If you would like too be adopted by an Extrovert stand in some public place and then look around until you see a person talking too a group of people or perhaps someone that's actively looking for conversation, then wait, they will find you and adopt you as a friend. You cannot unfriend them, you are now there friend whether you like it or not.
@@iampidgeon6923 hahahaha it's nice to read a positive and funny comment about extroverts. I don't know why I feel like I see so many negative ones here. :(
@@iampidgeon6923 That’s pretty accurate. My first few days of High School, I was super nervous because I didn’t really have anyone to sit with at lunch. One of my now friends invited me to sit with her and her friends and it was great. Granted, it took me a few weeks to feel comfortable enough to sit with them without asking first but eh, that’s life. A few months in she even told one of her friends that they took me under their wings
It's even worse as a male introvert, because women will never approach you and wait for you to make the move, but when you get the chance, it's way too nerve-wracking and they think something is wrong with you. Sad times. 😔😔😔😔
I have messaged some guys, even though I'm a huge introvert. I've learned to do it because I'm getting old and trying to be more proactive about what I want in life.
The kiss 💋 hahahahaha 🤣 As an INFJ I would have to think forever if I really, would actually kiss just anyone. Not me. Maybe other INFJs would, not me. I’m EXTREMELY SELECTIVE.
Yup absolutely. The thought of touching people is disgusting enough(empath INFJ) but kissing yuck! I’ve only kissed 2 people in my life. First was my ex husband.....but when my partner kissed me for the first time I bout fell over in shock, I didn’t know it would be that fun! 😆
I honestly prefer to stay on the dating app just friendly chatting, it's a huge deal breaker when they want to do stuff like "meet" or "call" You psycho.. (INFPing)
Extrovert here but this was hilarious and I can imagine someone stuttering and spending 20 minutes to work up the nerve to talk to someone and I don’t mean to come off condescending but that’s honestly so cute
I started this video, stopped it...walked over and grabbed my INFJ sis to come watch it with me from the start. We both cringed and backed up from the computer screen as you attempted to kiss air. All in all though, we loved it!! :D
For me it's because they're not as up your a$$ all the time nor high maintenance. They're soft, pretty and don't smell. They please my senses in a good way and dogs don't always.
Because dogs require you to take them outside at least twice a day. You know out the door, in public. Maybe even to a park where there are other people, and other dogs. Unless you have a back yard, and another dog to keep it company. I actually like dogs too, but lot more work than a cat
used to watch these and wish I was single and then watched the one about just leaving a dead relationship and now i have fun on tinder and watch these happily. this channel literally changed my life! I send your videos to so many people, esp that are in the same situation I was in 💫
fantastic facial expressions! then the words sneak up and hit your funny bone from behind. Fab combo! so very INFJ humour coming from a state of comfortable mastery - the radiance of integrated functions! very pleased for you FJ! you keep getting better and better : )
for some reason i cant help but to do that on first dates though. i just feel so strongly about them and if someone doesnt share something close to mine then i dont consider there to be compatibility

I don't do that, but I understand if those areas are more peaceful to take a walk. After all, the purpose of walks is to relax, so more power to you
You lost me at "leaving the house," there are too many people out there.
Thank god for quarantine 😂
INFJ here, first dates are awesome. Even if it goes nowhere, the prior text conversations weed out people who’s company I wouldn’t enjoy so every date is an amazing conversation and a new friend.
My real struggle is anxiety from overthinking and getting attached too quick. INFJ habits of overthinking, finding patterns, and always looking at the long term.
Yeah, it's like, after all our screening to even go on the date, we are dealing with people we wouldn't mind marrying. :D So it's tough to keep distant.
It's like, if I thought you were good enough for all the hassle of a first date, most likely I want to marry you. :D
It's true! If I don't see a possibility of marriage, I don't keep a relationship. So many don't get it. If you know you don't work and you continue to keep them around anyway, that's leading them on. Count me out! 🙅
I relate so much to that
@M W It's true. I've tended to get in trouble by not having a "reason" and staying longer. Not anymore. That reason should be enough.
Taylor Jade the “INFJ door slam” haha
I'm glad to see that there are people who share same problems with me and that we are not alone in this. This guy is so cool and one of few youtubers who actually understands us.
My friend is super extroverted. She met a guy she liked at a party and they started texting afterwards. He’s super introverted and never made a move.
She got annoyed that he never made a move and one day told him that he was her boyfriend. He said “ok.”
They’ve been going strong for two years!
😂😂😂wow
".......I took a vow of celibacy."
This will now be an excuse to get out of a date, which has never, and will never, happen.
Same
One day i said hi to a nice charismatic-looking latina girl in a museum, the interaction turned into an improvised date we spent the whole evening together, and at some point when i ask her about the ring she's wearing and she drops it on me that she took a vow of chastity at her church 😅
I found this properly hilarious
Especially as this was one of the coolest and hottest dates ever, we were amazing meaningful conversation and bonding with an overtly sexy sexy vibe to it,
At the end of the night i looked her body up and down told her 'you know though, if i took you against your will, ... technically that wouldn't be a violation of your chastity story' and then that's how her vow died in short order 🤣
" Coffee gives me EXPLOSIVE diarrhea, so I must depart."..Hahaha. 😂😂
This is one of those videos where you laugh because it's funny, and then cry because its also relatable.. Conflicting emotions! On another note: that warm blond really suits your skin tone :D
Oka bya!
Indiana Chicken Right?
Haha
I think it's a rose blonde but I could be wrong. 🙃
It might just be me but I thought laughing and crying kind of go hand in hand. XD
“If you haven’t given up by now it’s time to write something about yourself for your profile”
me: gives up then
A very fulfilled introvert here, I'ld rather stay home and watch Frank James videos than go anywhere😁
Honestly, filling the 'About me' section is the hardest thing for me, takes two hours and 6 drafts to come up with a sentence
When I’m on that section of the dating app, it takes me that long to type, “ummm.”
FJ, I swear you could go pro. The new Seinfeld but you'd be playing all the characters. Great work! Thanks for all the fun.
Go pro! Go pro!!
INTP, I have the same fantasy. xD
Lmao the pic in front of the toilet 😂👏🏻
IKR! Loved it!
I thought I was just weird for not having any pictures of myself XD. Apparently I'm not alone lmao
"You will suddenly realize that your don't have no pictures of yourself"
THAT'S SO TRUUUUUUUUUUE
INTP here. Our dating style can be summed up like this. Way back in the 2000s I lived and worked in D.C. as a barista and part-time web developer, because obviously my goal in life was to become a cliche, but also, hey, free coffee. One day the most physically beautiful man I had ever seen came in, which already made me nervous, but I decided I was an adult and could definitely take his order, probably, so I turned to him and asked what he would like, and instead of responding to my question he just stared directly into my eyes for what seemed like three hellish hours, but was more likely a couple of seconds, then finally gave me his coffee order (STILL making direct eye contact), in a gorgeous Italian accent. By this point you’re probably waiting for some meet cute ending, but that’s not how INTPs do things. I had never been happier to get someone their coffee just so I could break eye contact with him. I was starting to panic, but was talking myself down, telling myself I just had to give him his coffee and he would go, but no. I gave him his coffee and he asked me for directions to a museum, and began making eye contact again. This time he was even smiling. What kind of monster does that? I somehow manage to give him directions, and because I chatter incessantly when I get nervous I start telling him how it’s one of my favorite museums, in an apparent attempt to build a verbal wall between us, and when I finish he says “you have the most beautiful eyes I’ve ever seen. Would you like to come to the museum with me?” And, because I am one smooth lady who knows how to catch a man, I squealed out the beginnings of a scream, then ran into the back room.
Wow... probably I would have done the same thing. I love how you wrote this tho
Almost certainly a serial killer who dates victims that he knows have no social connections who might report them missing too soon.
@@qwadratixwhy are you spoiling my vision of her being happy ever after 😅.
Did he ever come back? 😊
@@sweetsushanna-ahh unfortunately, or given how great I am at flirting, no.
"Let me tell you why all your religious beliefs are wrong," and "racism isn't that bad," etc....these sound like things an INTJ would say. INFJ may think all kinds of controversy, but probably not say out loud on a first date
As an INTJ, I can confirm that it sounds like something I would say on a date, but what is a date anyway? Is dating just a myth, I can't know cuz I am INTJ, we don't get dates!
Unless when it comes to feminism because I dont want to waste my time trying to date that kind of person.
INFJ here, I once got into a rant with someone in medical school that I thought science was overrated...on the first date. :D There wasn't a second.
I don't know why I thought that was a good idea. I think I made an offhand comment, and then I felt like I had to justify it to not look like a fool. Good job. :D
@@StarClay666 hey what is the INTJ's most compatible type, supposedly? I once dated an INTJ, and while it didn't work out long term, I still hold him in a special place in my heart. We would have really great in depth conversations. I'm INFJ
@@timothydao2416 That's just called being close minded, my friend. You have to be to think cringey man haters on tumblr represent the entire movement of feminism, including its scholars and all its third world activists. Yikes.
"Upon creating your profile, you will suddenly realise that you have no pictures of yourself" Amen, sister FJ. Amen.
Oh man, only FJ could say “racism isn’t so bad” in the manner he does and induce choking laughter.
"for women, if you are even remotely approaching anything resembling a reasonable facsimile of attractiveness... you will receive tons of likes and messages without even trying" hahaha lmao! so true!
I'm an INFJ and my husband is ENTP, and we actually met online playing video games when we were teenagers! I avoided the whole dating thing to the max and was successful lol
Finally, a video I can show to my family to make them understand why I'll die alone!
The "kissing part" was so awkward. But somehow I just love it! 😂 I hope this is the beginning of more chapters for the introvert's guide survival. This and the previous one are amazing.
His goal was definitely just that, to stew discomfort. Lol
@Nessa Nessaness 😆 eh, who knows maybe when he was younger, but for the purposes of the video he seemed to do some editing to accentuate the moment.😁
@@desireez5740 Yeah, and he nailed it! :)
@Nessa Ne oh yeah, he wanted us to feel the pain. 😉
@Nessa Ne No way. Not with his level of empathy. I bet he's a great kisser.
I absolutely LOVE your Introvert’s Survival Guide series! You mug for the camera like nobody’s business. Your writing is hillaire. Poor Armadillos. So ends their migration.
And I totally would date him. That gray cardigan! Raaaarrrrr! 💖
I can totally relate to this. The last picture of myself I have was taken one year and a half ago by a friend who was visiting, and I've never used dating apps, because yes, dying along seems a lot more appealing than meet a zillion predators or desperate men online.
Ha ha ha! "Cemetery". I personally have always loved going to cemeteries and walking around reading headstones. I think about the lives they might have had and wonder what they died from. Super funny video Frank, it's nice to have something to laugh out loud to first thing in the morning. :)
It's a great place to connect. Oh yeah, to the "living ones" too.
@@jodypopovich6228 True :)
Kind if sad to see gravestones of children though
Yes I find peace there, and I always think of the amount of angels that are present.
Yeah, cemeteries are interesting. The last time I was at one with some of my family members, we found one group of tombstones where we were able to figure out how old one women was when her parents, sister, first child, and husband died, respectively. Kinda sad, but interesting how much info we could glean about her life just by some names and dates.
That wig do be lookin fresh tho. Melania who?! 💁🏼♀️ Lady FJ’s gonna have no problem finding her partner in crumb.
This turned out so well! You kill me with all the little details/expressions - those selfies and that totally not awkward kiss! 😂
Holly N an armadillo mascot is sounding like an idea i can get behind for this series 🤔
Maria Filar That’d look good on some merch! 😂
He started doing the kiss right as I started reading this 😂😂😂
Died unexpectedly swerving off the road. Hilarious. Frank you pull off being a nerd impeccably. Loved this whole skit. Laughing from beginning to end.❤️
This is pure comedy for introverts. PURE!!!
“Don’t message me unless...” listen that’s so relatable
Someone looks extra cool and attractive with glasses
I like to think I look better with glasses
This video has temporarily helped to relieve some serious anxiety about an upcoming date. Thanks so much
What about the introvert's guide to extroverts!? 🤩
I imagine it consists of the phrase, "stay away".
If you would like too be adopted by an Extrovert stand in some public place and then look around until you see a person talking too a group of people or perhaps someone that's actively looking for conversation, then wait, they will find you and adopt you as a friend. You cannot unfriend them, you are now there friend whether you like it or not.
1. Avoid at all costs, they WILL drive you insame
@@iampidgeon6923 hahahaha it's nice to read a positive and funny comment about extroverts. I don't know why I feel like I see so many negative ones here. :(
@@iampidgeon6923 That’s pretty accurate. My first few days of High School, I was super nervous because I didn’t really have anyone to sit with at lunch. One of my now friends invited me to sit with her and her friends and it was great. Granted, it took me a few weeks to feel comfortable enough to sit with them without asking first but eh, that’s life. A few months in she even told one of her friends that they took me under their wings
I heard from a trusted source that armadillos are migrating further and further north, it was bound to happen eventually
LOL! 😄
omg this got me 🤣🤣🤣
going vegan is the single smallest thing that has the single biggest impact on environmental #govegantoday
whywhynot please drive carefully and watchout for those poor Babies . They're at our mercy
@@steveshears890 I live in Sweden so they are pretty safe from me ^^
It's even worse as a male introvert, because women will never approach you and wait for you to make the move, but when you get the chance, it's way too nerve-wracking and they think something is wrong with you. Sad times. 😔😔😔😔
💯 Facts!
I have messaged some guys, even though I'm a huge introvert. I've learned to do it because I'm getting old and trying to be more proactive about what I want in life.
I made it as far as the dating app before watching this, so thank you for saving me the trouble of realizing I'd rather just die alone after all.
The kiss 💋 hahahahaha 🤣
As an INFJ I would have to think forever if I really, would actually kiss just anyone.
Not me. Maybe other INFJs would, not me.
I’m EXTREMELY SELECTIVE.
oh my god. i can totally relate to this.
Yup absolutely. The thought of touching people is disgusting enough(empath INFJ) but kissing yuck! I’ve only kissed 2 people in my life. First was my ex husband.....but when my partner kissed me for the first time I bout fell over in shock, I didn’t know it would be that fun! 😆
"Looking for a partner in crumb"
same
I honestly prefer to stay on the dating app just friendly chatting, it's a huge deal breaker when they want to do stuff like "meet" or "call"
You psycho..
(INFPing)
And people thinking you're shy, because they're not interesting and you don't want to leave because you're trying to avoid drama
“If you haven’t given up by now...”
Looool - the struggle is real
Extrovert here but this was hilarious and I can imagine someone stuttering and spending 20 minutes to work up the nerve to talk to someone and I don’t mean to come off condescending but that’s honestly so cute
That’s exactly what I would do so I guess I have a chance haha
Lol i would agree it is cute, extrovert here too
It is endearing because it's courageous
Thank you, I learnt alot :D i went from having 0 boyfriends to having 500 in one year by just dating from home, all thanks to Frank James
Never in my life have I been less interested in dating or being in a relationship or having sex. I feel liberated from enslavement 😄
This is the best skit I have ever seen. It touched my heart, revealed my feelings, and also perhaps, slightly made me laugh. haha.
I have literally gone on first dates at all of those locations. The cemetery was seriously the worst one; no second date after that one!
I don't want to die alone but sometimes it doesn't feel like that bad of an option tbh
I started this video, stopped it...walked over and grabbed my INFJ sis to come watch it with me from the start. We both cringed and backed up from the computer screen as you attempted to kiss air. All in all though, we loved it!! :D
"Cats are clearly superior to dogs"
Why us introverts have this thing for cats? I quote~
Actually I preffer dogs
Cats have kept their wild side. I think infjs vibe with that.
My ENTJ husband much prefers cats.
My first word as a child was 'cat' even though we never had cats or dogs. I've always been fascinated by animals.
For me it's because they're not as up your a$$ all the time nor high maintenance. They're soft, pretty and don't smell. They please my senses in a good way and dogs don't always.
Because dogs require you to take them outside at least twice a day. You know out the door, in public. Maybe even to a park where there are other people, and other dogs. Unless you have a back yard, and another dog to keep it company. I actually like dogs too, but lot more work than a cat
Honestly a date in cemetery has been my dream date for as long as I can remember
And maybe come across Shuck
“You’ll realize you have no pictures if yourself” that one was a little too true
My bf and I are both introverts, and we met through a dating app 😂 He rarely takes selfies, but he did so that one time for his profile picture.
Okay so I’m gonna die alone - it’s confirmed
used to watch these and wish I was single and then watched the one about just leaving a dead relationship and now i have fun on tinder and watch these happily. this channel literally changed my life! I send your videos to so many people, esp that are in the same situation I was in 💫
fantastic facial expressions! then the words sneak up and hit your funny bone from behind. Fab combo! so very INFJ humour coming from a state of comfortable mastery - the radiance of integrated functions! very pleased for you FJ! you keep getting better and better : )
This video is a work of art, my belly hurts from how much I laugh.
Introvert buddies🙆🙆
LOL. That's almost oxymoronic.
I am introverted extrovert lol entp
@@luckycharm1395 Wish i could relate LOL
*"Let me tell you why all of your religious beliefs are wrong."*
INTP did this, haha ... I tell him that feelings, its all about feelings, and yes, I know Intps don't have the same feelings as normal people :=p.
for some reason i cant help but to do that on first dates though. i just feel so strongly about them and if someone doesnt share something close to mine then i dont consider there to be compatibility
That's me talking to my extended family. No wonder we don't get along 😂
this might be weird to say but I really like the way you explain things. it's so accurate . I feel attacked and blessed every time I watch you
I am also an introvert (INFJ). I putting a lot of effort to socialize more often. It's quite stressful for me 😑.
I could watch this over and over and never get tired of it.
