While crying to these functions, functions reply... Ti: Think it through Te: Think it over Si: Get over it Se: Get over here Fi: I feel it too Fe: I feel for you Ni: I see the real problem Ne: Problems are all I see
3:36 When INTP to exercise something that isn't on their stack, because Ti would then counter: Are you doing it just to make yourself feel good? It makes no sense at all.
INTJ be like Ni: I can understand the context to know why she's crying Te: OMG shut up please i need concentrate in my things Fi: Starts crying too Se: ---------
As an INTJ, I've learned that is more efficient and effective to skip straight to "murder whoever did that to you" step. Thanks to my ESTP friend. haha
Intps functions response. Ti: um what’s wrong? Maybe i can help you by making you see it’s not a big deal and you shouldn’t let yourself get hurt over it. Ne: oh gosh what should i do? Should i talk to them? Hug them? Maybe they wanna be left alone. What if they really need someone to talk to? What do people say? Is it serious? Si: grabs tissues and a glass of water. Fe: sits next to the person so they know we’re there if they need a hug. Don’t initiate contact unless they lean in. Pat pat.
The Ni was especially relatable (no surprise). My reaction as an INTJ tends to be 1. Snap. Um. Give them privacy? Yeah, give them privacy. That's what I'd want. I will leave / turn away and "forget" I ever saw them crying. 2. Oh, they have purposefully chosen not to hide and instead to share the tears/feelings. I feel ill equipped, but I care about them, so mission accepted. What is our goal here? To stop the crying or to validate it? I'd better just ask what they need. Also, I should locate Kleenex and make sure they're hydrated. If there is anyone else around, I will glare them away. 3a. We've decided that dwelling on it is NOT helpful for them. Great. Identifying appropriate distraction now. 3b. They just need to share the feelings. Okay. Nod, sympathetic noises, offer tea, try not to join tears. Umm... hug? Yeah, my arms are responding to some natural hugging instinct, and media supports that instinct, so I should offer a hug. 3c. They are open to solutions to the source of tears. Thank heavens. Here is what went wrong, and here is how to fix it or prevent it next time. 4. I'll go hide for a week to recover from the high-alert sensory and emotional experience now. If it's an ongoing source of tears, I may contact one of my Fe- or Se- dominant/auxiliary confidants (ideally one who is not acquainted with the person in distress, for the sake of privacy) and ask for advice. :P
This is exactly everything. I hate that the first response is so seldom the welcomed response 😜. Although, if it’s an ongoing source of tears, I make sure to bump into a mutual Fe and casually mention that “so-and-so has seemed not themself lately” and that’s usually enough for them to leap into action without requiring me to break any confidence.
Ni - OMFG! I do, literally, have that internal discussion when I see someone in emotional distress (or someone comes to me with emotional distress). My usual response is to just sit with them while they get it out. Maybe put a hand on their shoulder. No kidding.
Oh my word Ni is so dead on. Unless it’s my two best friends, I cannot comfort someone who’s crying. I think about what I should do but it... doesn’t translate. And with my best friends, the Se just switches on or something and gives them a hug, which is so weird because it’s so opposite what I normally do.
INTP be like: Ti: *can't understand why she's crying* Ne: *starts figuring out the reason by itself, only problems* Si: *tries to be nice and look like a human being, but it just throws information: how to deal whit this' at you that it searched up in internet and does NOT help you at all* Fe: *is actual emotional support, but nO, it's speachless*
This perfectly describes how I typically handle things. I NEED somebody else to come over and help them, because I already know I won't be able to figure it out. I once walked into a restroom where I found a lady slightly hyperventilating with tears streaming down her face, she got red and acted embarassed when I walked in. "Sorry, we just lost a parent", she said with difficulty, choking out a little embarassed laugh. And... I... laughed... BACK. With a nice big social smile. Because she made a joke, right? She was laughing? So the appropriate response is to laugh BACK, right? And smile? A few seconds later, my brain finished processing the cues and I realized she was actually very sad, and that my reaction was really inappropriate. So I apologized, and got the hell out of there QUICKLY and found another bathroom. People confuse me.
@@kratze1738 this is so familiar, happens every time. but worse happens. the things i am really embarrassed about are that once i had to say to mum that a friend of mine fainted and that's why i'm home late, but instead i laughed slightly and she thought it's a joke. and the other thing is when i say to someone that someone else died (a person they know, actors, singers, etc., I FUCKING !SMILE! and i just realized that my parents probably are more embarrassed...
INTJs, have a sense of resilience about them, a very steady intensity. I am on a break from being a professor, and I used to give my students this test, just to break the ice, and because the reading of the syllabus bores me more than it does them. And the INTJs were my favorites. They feel like they can take care of themselves, and it is a massive relief for an INFJ. And they are quite serious, but if you gently tease them, they really open up, as long as they know you are kidding, otherwise they’ll kick your ass with words. And they will win. Other students were very impressed by them; instantly respected them, and approached them with caution. The other students seemed to understand and respect the amount of focus the intj was putting into their work, as if it was so obviously beyond their own capacity, and they would simply marvel at it, never even hoping to become it. And it was sort of an under the radar subplot, but I do remember feeling this way, as a student, about another student, somehow knowing all of us felt the same way. As a professor during one on one midterm reviews, I would mention a particular intj as a good example, often, and the student would just speak about that person so differently, with such respect, and a bit of awe and mystery. How cool is that? I had an intj in particular who had such abusive parents, I was absolutely floored when I fully deduced it from a lot of information. It seemed like such an injustice to this outstanding individual. So I sort of vowed to myself, to go above and beyond for this student, in any way I could, whatever my position allowed, and beyond. I wanted to reward her for the person she was, for her conduct as a human being, a student, her unbelievable work effort, and for never using her family as an excuse to expect less from life or herself. We need these people in the world, and while would never presume to believe that I could fix anything about that terrible home situation for her, I knew I could do what was in my capacity, which was to be at least one person in her life who wouldn’t let her down; who would reward her for every one of her outstanding qualities, and never put her in a position to have to ask, and to just really shine a light on her wonderful qualities as I genuinely felt them. (INFJ, again..)
@@ForeverFashionGirl21 INFP here too one time I fully blasted my Fi and...Nothing went well. I also find it a little ackward to Fe it out. I tried Te ing but then everyone seemed to hate me after that hahahaa.
Not saying this is the universal INFP experience, but: Fi: Oh my God, something must be seriously wrong! I have a human responsibility to help them! Seeing them cry is upsetting, and now I feel even worse about not living up to my responsibilities to other humans. Ne: What's wrong?! Did someone die? Is someone hospitalized?? Have they been going through a rough patch and things just piled up too much, and they snapped??? Si: I remember what it's like to cry in public... it late afternoon on a tram downtown, and I was exhausted from stress, and... I know what would have helped *me*, at least... Te: Nope! Get me out of here! Final decision: A) Substitute a lack of words for physical affection if you know they won't mind and eventually ask if it helped or they feel any better, or awkwardly ask if they need a hug B) "Uh... is there anything I can do for you...?" C) Awkwardly walk away while feeling guilty
They probably shouldn’t be crying “a lot”, unless they are genuinely grieving, or perhaps have untreated depression. I think you are frustrated for good reason, and it might just be indicating to you that something is genuinely quite wrong, in which case, maybe say this to the person crying, because they might need to hear it, it could really help to hear some honesty. Love always, INFJ
@@quintuplebanned4267 lol I love how Fe oriented your comment is. I guess I should clarify "a lot" as it is a very subjective term. "A lot" to me is once, a day or every couple of days (which is normal for some people- especially for those who have high sleep or are Feelers) What is actually frustrating is when someone cries a lot because they don't prevent whatever is making them cry. I.e. if they are overwhelmed by the things they have to do it is frustrating to me when I point out the things they could do to not be overwhelmed like planning and not procrastinating. ( if that makes more sense lol) Feelings also seem really irrational to me (even though I'm aware the are valid) It is hard for me to see a copious amount of emotion and not have an adverse reaction to it (I'm better tho! I gave a friend a hug the other day 😂)
@@christalphelps6186 girlfriend, that IS ALOT! You have good instincts...I want you to wear a gopro and try my technique, pleeeeeeeese? And let’s see how it goes.. (now I’m so wishing you will follow through, knowing that this is inappropriate....but, yet I kind of don’t care)
@@quintuplebanned4267 lol, unfortunately I don't think I will😂 however I am a college student and so I see a copious amount of overwhelmed, crying people. Especially as midterms was this past week... I have a friend taking 19 credits who commutes 1.5 hr, plus she's in cross country -- little ambitious if you ask me. The other friend is a double major Engineering and Computer Science.... Maybe that is why😂
ESFP be like Se: I must go cheer them up! Fi: You're crying! Now I'm hugging and crying too! Te: Please just stop crying! Ni: Outlook not so good for this person if I can't cheer them up soon.
Ohmygod I didn't expect ni to be this accurate, it's really tragic, often times makes me feel like a more theory less practice material kind of 👽 scientist. Like I run the simulation but it's only in my head while in reality I'm running because this is getting overwhelming lol.
Your portrayal of Fi is really interesting to me. Fi sees what’s happening and relates it to their own experiences, thereby making it their own problem (put bluntly, by making it about them) and I find that this really isn’t empathy, just recall. A lot of fi users i know will try to comfort others by relating things to their own feelings and experiences, but don’t end up addressing the other person as much. Fi is introverted and focused on the self. I don’t think it could be called empathy...it’s more like sympathy when you think about it. (At least, that’s how I understand Fi. I’m not even an Fi user, just an ENFJ.) I think you exemplify Fi really well, though. Kudos to you!
as an ISFP, I do use a lot of sympathy when facing with this kind of stuff, then followed by empathy. Growing up, I learned that its best to not telling the other person how 'I feel' or what to do if I'm in their shoes, instead just tell them the thing that is happening really is sad, and I would feel awful too. trying not to make it about me too much. I learned its best to not expressing how I feel and just let them talk, listen. If its something that I never been through, I'd just imagine how'd it be and try to get through it with them, the emotions, together. If this happened to me before? yeah I'll wait for them to calm down because I know what to do now. I'll give advice if needed. If not, I'll sit with them in silence.
Fi users yeah we definitely relate to people thru our own experiences but imo it actually helps us feel what that person is feeling. Ppl tend to share more vulnerable, traumatic things with Fi users than Fe users. Fe users comfort for the sake of making the person feel better, which is the end goal (good goal). Fi users comfort to connect to the sufferer on a soul level. I personally would want an Fi user to hear my problems bc they can become that person who’s hurting briefly. However in certain situations, if someone just wants sympathy I would prefer an Fe user. I personally don’t like Fe because although it has benefits, it’s a bit more shallow. Fi I feel like would understand intense suffering. (Referencing lovewho). Fe users (ESPECIALLY esfjs) get on my nerves because they will side with a cause even if it’s unethical, if they feel it will maintain group unity. That in itself can be a form of selfishness because it avoids the internal discomfort of conflict that Fe users experience. A more accurate label for Fi would be “self referencing,” not selfish. A good phrase for Fe is not always “selfless”, more like “group homeostasis” (the maintained balance of people’s feelings.)
I laughed out loud when Ni part came 😂 this is so accurate !! Sometimes i feel like my mind and body are disconnected ! I literally say the same things to myself ''now go ! Come on move ! '' to initiate something i've been overthinking.. great video 👏
Full reaction: Se:Talking to them probably won't solve anything. Channel the energy to making the person feel better Ne: Maybe it's better asking the person why they feel sad? Fi: I understand but I think it'll make the person feel worse... Si: Good effort but then I think most people don't have the will to follow 10 steps...To be happy again Fe: The closest to a great response when someone is crying. Maybe we should all follow her example? Ti: We cry to let our emotions out. So that we can function as a normal human being again. Does that answer your question? Te: Being efficient here does not help...A+ for effort tho. Ni: You're asking the real questions. Everyone has different needs and paths to heal from crying. However, you seemed to be confused and lost Ni...
Haha I agree, Fe has the best response here. When I found myself in this exact situation and couldn’t respond properly that’s what pushed me into learning about type. When I found Fe I was like “damn this is what I was missing!”.
Aw Si is so cute lol. I love how Ti says "You're fine." 😆 I feel that way sometimes though, as someone who has only cried in front of people when someone or something has died, and low Fe is like, "Well I see that you're crying but you're all in one piece and I know you still have a job and I know your family is all fine so... you're fine..."
ENFJ What people usually see: Fe: "I'm so sorry that you have to go through this but I'm SO proud of you!" Accidentally says all the right things to comfort them because Ni. Inside the head: Se: *internally exploding* WHO HURT YOU I WILL MURDER THEM MY SWEET BABY CHILD! THEY WILL RUE THE DAY! THEY WILL FEEL THE WRATH OF THIS MOM FRIEND!!! MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!! Ti to Se: "Shut up before you do something stupid... Don't get us in trouble please!"
omg Ni is very accurate, in that situation I know what I should do but it's weird, the best I can do is listen to you, advise you and at most give you a hug ... then I am exhausted
LOL Ni! So relatable! I've even questioned my profession (counseling) because of this awkward paralyzing dialogue of what should I do when this person is crying.
I can really relate to debating in my head on what I should do to comfort someone. Most of the time I just end up sitting next to them and not saying a word. Que the awkward silence...
omg Te gave me total Aubrey Plaza as April Ludgate vibes! as a fellow ENFP (4w3): Ne - immediately trying to figure out who/what around is the source of tears / if i'm about to be crying too Fi - always relating to the situation whether i've lived it or not (i've realised this overpowers me every time i'm talking to friends but my way of caring is literally "I understand!!! I feel it too!!! You are not alone/weird/abnormal!!!") Te - awkward. uncomfortable. what do I do? what do I say? don't mess this up!!! Si - it's unbearable to see someone in pain. must fix. provide warm drink and proven method of easing pain. end sad asap.
We'll honestly just say something like "idk your problem, but you know I'll find a solution, all you have to do is explain to me." Or if they feel like can't say anything, we'll find something that can makes them relax, like hand them a drink, some food, play music, or just leave them be. Te user won't show any emotional attach to you, but we'll surely do anything to help when we have enough time.
I’m an ENFP so when I see someone cry my Te kicks in and I become this logic bomb if someone hurt them and want to instantly defend them because my Fi activates Te. or try and work out ways to comfort them if it’s not a perks.
Aha yes! Ne user here pretty much only interested in why they're crying! I also really struggle with Fe - I am hardly a shoulder to cry on despite my strong Fi as an ENFP. I never understood that until I learned about the functions, so now I'm so grateful I have! Thank God for Carl Jung
Fe here....pretty much exactly how I am! I'm strong for the person crying to try and soothe them then afterwards sneak off to cry myself from absorbing their emotions. 🤣🤣 The deep down Fe hiding in you did well! haha
my functions within me: Ti: This is fascinating, an emotion flooding out of her, could never do that myself. Fascianting but frightening... Ne: I wonder why she cries, a bad social breakup, a dead one, a random reasonless mental breakdown? Si: The social rules say u have to comfort her, pls someone (Fe/Ne) try to find a way how... Fe: Ohh my, she needs emotional comfort and support right now. I want to listn to her and support her and hug her
@@EvilMeganium well yes, I find emotions and emotional reactions fascinating (as long as I'm not directly involved), maybe because it's sort of an own language
@@EvilMeganium actually same, I literally freeze and internally want to escape the situation. But that's not a Ti perspective, rather the perspective of an overwhelmed Fe
Goodness me, the Ni was spot on :') Especially coupled with my Fe, I'd consider all kinds of ways to try and ease the pain somehow but somehow finding a counter-argument to them all, all while freezing in place and not knowing what to do :') With Strangers and acquaintances that is, with close ones my Fe shines much more in the situation thankfully :D Splendid work!
Hahaha Ni and Te totally me. Not helpful at all in emotional situation like that. Overthinking and not capable to give the emotional care that might be required, but always be there for my friends when they need a full logic way to solve a problem
It felt so, so liberating FINALLY being able to incorporate my Se after my Ni did all the planning, i remember how hopeless i always felt before i finally broke throught this.
my god, the Ni response reminds me of when one of my acquaintances was very clearly having a HORRIBLE time and i spent 30 mins trying to figure out what would be an appropriate response that wouldn’t be too inappropriate given our history and current level of connection. i ended up giving her a side hug and almost collapsing at the wave of sadness that i got from her, and i am only just now realizing that that may not have been a normal reaction. -INFJ
Oh yes, it's so hard to understand if people need a shoulder or some space. I keep wondering and sometimes end up being either apathetic or too bothered xD.
@@InternetLiJo that's lot more comfortable haha. I try to hide my apathy, maybe due to INFJ tendancies. PS - I really loved your idea of demonstrating functions instead of personalities, relatable indeed.
INFJ here. The "cCmon body, move... Get over there...Move.." is soo acctuate :o I always have this problem, where i know what I should/need/have to do, but i just sit there unable to do it and I hate it
INFJ here- the Fe was pretty close I think! Good job haha. Maybe a little more distant than Fe but pretty close I think! That Ni and Fe is so spot on thought oh my GOODNESS that’s made me crack up, SO true it hurts
For me as an INFJ it looks like: Ni - Now everything makes sense. Why she/he was like this... But why are they crying over broken glass... they probably have bigger problems and just couldn’t handle it. Fe - poor her/him, makes me sad as well, it looks like they're struggling... Ti - I should go and talk to them, cheer them up or something... Ni again: But do they want it? they might feel embarrassed.. But maybe they'll feel better.. What kind of person are they? I think they might prefer to be alone.. Se - realising I'm staring at them
Ti dominant sees person crying. First instinct is to run, but Fe inferior makes you feel guilty, so you try to comfort them. Awkward situation results and you regret it for several months analyzing what you did wrong.
Bahahaha, ‘ make it stop ‘ 💙 Also informative and giving much needed nuance to my understanding of the functions. me : essentially Ni trying to Fe, because that’s what I’ve seen. Can you you see all the motors running and the wheels stuck in the ditch. 😂
So as an ENFP, when I see someone crying I have my Ne, but then my Fi is super strong and hates seeing people upset and then that activates my Te and I become this logic bomb and get super protective and want to confront whoever hurt them (despite being conflict avoidant). And then when that dies down my Si is there to comfort them.
Yeah, as a SeTi, we either deem it "horrible, something has to be done NOW!" or "yeah, probably overreacting. Time to focus on solutions instead of emotions". There's no in between.
The introverted intuition is spot on. 🙌🏻 That is my dominant function. After I analyze the situation I use my second function Fe to empathize with them. 💖
I looked up the primary functions for INFJ and oh my gosh. All of the corresponding responses have gone through my head in these situations. Which one is prevalent depends on my mood that day and my relationship to the person who's crying.
when I try to help I usually make things worse or I flee. books are great(they don't cry). now I got to see how I come across(disturbing). btw cute canine
*INTPs* processing it would be like: Ti: Trying to figure out the reason of what made you cry, and maybe try to help you see that it isn’t worth crying over. First instinct is trying to find a solution rather than comforting you. Resort to their other functions if the first two don’t work. Ne: Having many possibilities going through their head as to what made you cry. Si: Have probably gone through this before (and maybe even searched up “how to help someone when they are crying” online). End up giving you tissues and water. The question of ‘what else helps people when they’re sad?’ is probably going through their heads right now. Fe: Are beside you the entire time, just in case if you need something. Don’t initiate contact unless if you do. Maybe a couple of pats and back rubs here and there.
Me as iNTJ female: “Who is crying? Am I a close friend of that person?" -> Yes -> go there and ask "what's happening? I will help to solve your problem." No -> "Does that person look like so depressed that they need the presence of others? Or Does he/she look like he/she needs privacy?" -> Go there and keep silent or just go away and pretend that I know nothing.
Reminds me of my slightly crazy ENFP (I think) former coworker when I told her my dog died, "I put a spell on my dog so she'll live forever" She wasn't joking, and she didn't say something like, "Sorry for your loss"
This is so interesting !!! I honestly can see that in her portrayal of Ni she comes from NT perspective and way of thinking, and it's interesting to see how even though 2 types have Ni dominant, due to their auxiliary function differences they may approach it differently; for me, (infj) my Ni approach would be more into analyzing her personality and feelings and what may the other person find emotionally comfortable and helpful, and from my Fe, I would instinctively jump to help and defend, no hesitation. And whenever I watch you, it's like watching the INTJ in my own life hahaha keep going, these are awesome!
The Fi one is relatable even though this is parody 😂 ! For example something bad happens to someone else (lost dog/relative/job) and I imagine what it would be like if I was in their shoes, how it would feel if I lost my dog/relative/job etc..
I don’t agree with the Ti’s interpretation because most likely Ti will be concerned with coming up with some sort of logical solution to deal with the emotional problem versus being avoidant of the issue at hand.
This video was particularly poignant to me as an aspergers INTJ.. /-Crying infants/the noise would fill me with abject terror until I learned to differentiate the cries..
I have to reset the " xx number of days since last crying incident" clock because I cried this week. This made me LOL! It helps me to understand how people react to me crying which won't happen again this year! LOL!
oh wow, WHAT?! That was really interesting, thanks for the video! It hasn't been clear to me at all how different people can internally process a situation. I'm an Ni dominant (INFJ), and I thought that most people were processing things in a similar way as I do. This is probably a very normal thing to believe, since we don't have access to each other's internal worlds; we only know about our own. But if this video really represents how other function users process things, then that's really mind-blowing... Can people really process things that differently? Even though we all belong to the same species? Anyways, your Ni one was on point, at least very similar to how I process things. The over-analysis... jesus, it's too real. Of course you'd know Ni well since you're a dominant user, but I thought it was really cool how you were able to isolate the dominant function without leaning much into either Te (INTJ) or Fe (INFJ). I always found it confusing, the difference between ENFJ (Fe-Ni) and INFJ (Ni-Fe), but I think I understand it better now thanks to your video.
INFJ iN - what should I do? eF - I really feel for you iT - This is a uniform human experience and going through these emotions will strengthen them eS - Being there in the moment
I think I’m an INTJ but I’m not sure, but when someone cries I feel so uncomfortable because I don’t know what to do at all or how to comfort the person, I’ll just stand there and wait for someone else to do the job.
Hysterical! ENTJ here. Yep, pull it together...I got nothin', can I leave for several hours and bring back food, coffee? Maybe bring you the remote and we can watch the Animal channel?..oh, wait maybe not that..
While crying to these functions, functions reply...
Ti: Think it through
Te: Think it over
Si: Get over it
Se: Get over here
Fi: I feel it too
Fe: I feel for you
Ni: I see the real problem
Ne: Problems are all I see

Lmao that was probably my favorite line
Seriously.... that is the only answer.
Intps functions response.
Ti: um what’s wrong? Maybe i can help you by making you see it’s not a big deal and you shouldn’t let yourself get hurt over it.
Ne: oh gosh what should i do? Should i talk to them? Hug them? Maybe they wanna be left alone. What if they really need someone to talk to? What do people say? Is it serious?
Si: grabs tissues and a glass of water.
Fe: sits next to the person so they know we’re there if they need a hug. Don’t initiate contact unless they lean in. Pat pat.
Love your added perspective!
I suddenly really relate lol (I don't know my type, though)
ISTP here also giving out pat pats if neccessary... 😅 great take
you seem like such a healthy intp dude
@@a.s.3719 same
The Ni was especially relatable (no surprise). My reaction as an INTJ tends to be
1. Snap. Um. Give them privacy? Yeah, give them privacy. That's what I'd want. I will leave / turn away and "forget" I ever saw them crying.
2. Oh, they have purposefully chosen not to hide and instead to share the tears/feelings. I feel ill equipped, but I care about them, so mission accepted. What is our goal here? To stop the crying or to validate it? I'd better just ask what they need. Also, I should locate Kleenex and make sure they're hydrated. If there is anyone else around, I will glare them away.
3a. We've decided that dwelling on it is NOT helpful for them. Great. Identifying appropriate distraction now.
3b. They just need to share the feelings. Okay. Nod, sympathetic noises, offer tea, try not to join tears. Umm... hug? Yeah, my arms are responding to some natural hugging instinct, and media supports that instinct, so I should offer a hug.
3c. They are open to solutions to the source of tears. Thank heavens. Here is what went wrong, and here is how to fix it or prevent it next time.
4. I'll go hide for a week to recover from the high-alert sensory and emotional experience now.
If it's an ongoing source of tears, I may contact one of my Fe- or Se- dominant/auxiliary confidants (ideally one who is not acquainted with the person in distress, for the sake of privacy) and ask for advice. :P
Damn this is my experience as well. Seems the functions act so predictably in these types of universal situations.
This is exactly everything. I hate that the first response is so seldom the welcomed response 😜. Although, if it’s an ongoing source of tears, I make sure to bump into a mutual Fe and casually mention that “so-and-so has seemed not themself lately” and that’s usually enough for them to leap into action without requiring me to break any confidence.
This was brilliant, by the way. I love this. -Infj
Lol 😂, not when they're standing next to you at work!
For me it's either:
1) tries to comfort the person
2) ignores it
Ni - OMFG! I do, literally, have that internal discussion when I see someone in emotional distress (or someone comes to me with emotional distress). My usual response is to just sit with them while they get it out. Maybe put a hand on their shoulder. No kidding.
Yessss Ni knows a response is needed but just doing the Se is such a struggle
Sounds perfect. Really...hugs, INFJ
My exact INFJ response
Oh my word Ni is so dead on. Unless it’s my two best friends, I cannot comfort someone who’s crying. I think about what I should do but it... doesn’t translate. And with my best friends, the Se just switches on or something and gives them a hug, which is so weird because it’s so opposite what I normally do.
Yes that’s the perfect way to say it! It doesn’t translate.
Don't worry Fi child will do just fine!
Signed,
Fe Parent.
Your demonstration of Fe is really good! -INFJ
That means so much thank you!
I totally concur. -INFJ
Agreed! -infj
SO TRUE! - *another* INFJ
that's right - one more infj
basically Fe is the absolute best. wonderfully done. and lmao ur caption xD
INTP be like:
Ti: *can't understand why she's crying*
Ne: *starts figuring out the reason by itself, only problems*
Si: *tries to be nice and look like a human being, but it just throws information: how to deal whit this' at you that it searched up in internet and does NOT help you at all*
Fe: *is actual emotional support, but nO, it's speachless*
This perfectly describes how I typically handle things. I NEED somebody else to come over and help them, because I already know I won't be able to figure it out. I once walked into a restroom where I found a lady slightly hyperventilating with tears streaming down her face, she got red and acted embarassed when I walked in. "Sorry, we just lost a parent", she said with difficulty, choking out a little embarassed laugh. And... I... laughed... BACK. With a nice big social smile. Because she made a joke, right? She was laughing? So the appropriate response is to laugh BACK, right? And smile? A few seconds later, my brain finished processing the cues and I realized she was actually very sad, and that my reaction was really inappropriate. So I apologized, and got the hell out of there QUICKLY and found another bathroom. People confuse me.
@@kratze1738 this is so familiar, happens every time. but worse happens. the things i am really embarrassed about are that once i had to say to mum that a friend of mine fainted and that's why i'm home late, but instead i laughed slightly and she thought it's a joke.
and the other thing is when i say to someone that someone else died (a person they know, actors, singers, etc., I FUCKING !SMILE!
and i just realized that my parents probably are more embarrassed...
y e s
True, this describes me perfectly.
I think this helps me understand my INTP brother more. Lol
Back story: The crier was already having a bad day. Ti was the final straw by correcting their thinking about something
INTJs, have a sense of resilience about them, a very steady intensity. I am on a break from being a professor, and I used to give my students this test, just to break the ice, and because the reading of the syllabus bores me more than it does them. And the INTJs were my favorites. They feel like they can take care of themselves, and it is a massive relief for an INFJ. And they are quite serious, but if you gently tease them, they really open up, as long as they know you are kidding, otherwise they’ll kick your ass with words. And they will win. Other students were very impressed by them; instantly respected them, and approached them with caution. The other students seemed to understand and respect the amount of focus the intj was putting into their work, as if it was so obviously beyond their own capacity, and they would simply marvel at it, never even hoping to become it. And it was sort of an under the radar subplot, but I do remember feeling this way, as a student, about another student, somehow knowing all of us felt the same way. As a professor during one on one midterm reviews, I would mention a particular intj as a good example, often, and the student would just speak about that person so differently, with such respect, and a bit of awe and mystery. How cool is that? I had an intj in particular who had such abusive parents, I was absolutely floored when I fully deduced it from a lot of information. It seemed like such an injustice to this outstanding individual. So I sort of vowed to myself, to go above and beyond for this student, in any way I could, whatever my position allowed, and beyond. I wanted to reward her for the person she was, for her conduct as a human being, a student, her unbelievable work effort, and for never using her family as an excuse to expect less from life or herself. We need these people in the world, and while would never presume to believe that I could fix anything about that terrible home situation for her, I knew I could do what was in my capacity, which was to be at least one person in her life who wouldn’t let her down; who would reward her for every one of her outstanding qualities, and never put her in a position to have to ask, and to just really shine a light on her wonderful qualities as I genuinely felt them. (INFJ, again..)
Gonna call it out:
Functions who can absolutely nail it: Fe
Everything in between: Se,
Awkward functions: Te, Ne,
Bahahaha great calls 😂
Infp with te and ne lol plus I have fi not fe so awkward
@@ForeverFashionGirl21 INFP here too one time I fully blasted my Fi and...Nothing went well. I also find it a little ackward to Fe it out.
I tried Te ing but then everyone seemed to hate me after that hahahaa.
Depends.. I often don't like the Fe way. - ISFP
IxTPs can definitely show great empathy...with those they care for. But dealing with groups with intense, incomprehensible emotion fecking sucks.
When someone is crying, I just feel like I would only make the situation worse for them due to low levels of empathy (cognitive and affective)-INTJ
Ti is spot on. I really dig that you captured both ISTP and INTP behavior. I'm thoroughly impressed.
This means a lot thank you! Something I always consider
Not saying this is the universal INFP experience, but:
Fi: Oh my God, something must be seriously wrong! I have a human responsibility to help them! Seeing them cry is upsetting, and now I feel even worse about not living up to my responsibilities to other humans.
Ne: What's wrong?! Did someone die? Is someone hospitalized?? Have they been going through a rough patch and things just piled up too much, and they snapped???
Si: I remember what it's like to cry in public... it late afternoon on a tram downtown, and I was exhausted from stress, and... I know what would have helped *me*, at least...
Te: Nope! Get me out of here!
Final decision: A) Substitute a lack of words for physical affection if you know they won't mind and eventually ask if it helped or they feel any better, or awkwardly ask if they need a hug B) "Uh... is there anything I can do for you...?" C) Awkwardly walk away while feeling guilty
Great system you created for yourself
@@InternetLiJo Thanks
I'm an INFP and this is very accurate!!
Good heavens, yes!
C is my choice
Oh. My. Word. The most awkward thing ever.... And the worst part is, I often get frustrated when people cry a lot... 🤦
Hahah it’s my metric to know how much progress I’ve gotten in Fe lmao
They probably shouldn’t be crying “a lot”, unless they are genuinely grieving, or perhaps have untreated depression. I think you are frustrated for good reason, and it might just be indicating to you that something is genuinely quite wrong, in which case, maybe say this to the person crying, because they might need to hear it, it could really help to hear some honesty. Love always, INFJ
@@quintuplebanned4267 lol I love how Fe oriented your comment is. I guess I should clarify "a lot" as it is a very subjective term. "A lot" to me is once, a day or every couple of days (which is normal for some people- especially for those who have high sleep or are Feelers)
What is actually frustrating is when someone cries a lot because they don't prevent whatever is making them cry. I.e. if they are overwhelmed by the things they have to do it is frustrating to me when I point out the things they could do to not be overwhelmed like planning and not procrastinating. ( if that makes more sense lol)
Feelings also seem really irrational to me (even though I'm aware the are valid) It is hard for me to see a copious amount of emotion and not have an adverse reaction to it (I'm better tho! I gave a friend a hug the other day 😂)
@@christalphelps6186 girlfriend, that IS ALOT! You have good instincts...I want you to wear a gopro and try my technique, pleeeeeeeese? And let’s see how it goes.. (now I’m so wishing you will follow through, knowing that this is inappropriate....but, yet I kind of don’t care)
@@quintuplebanned4267 lol, unfortunately I don't think I will😂 however I am a college student and so I see a copious amount of overwhelmed, crying people. Especially as midterms was this past week... I have a friend taking 19 credits who commutes 1.5 hr, plus she's in cross country -- little ambitious if you ask me. The other friend is a double major Engineering and Computer Science.... Maybe that is why😂
Ni is way too relatable. I swear that exact thing has gone through my mind many a time as I watch someone cry.
ESFP be like
Se: I must go cheer them up!
Fi: You're crying! Now I'm hugging and crying too!
Te: Please just stop crying!
Ni: Outlook not so good for this person if I can't cheer them up soon.
@@alex.does.comedy We ESFPs are not dumb. We’re smart. :)
@@alex.does.comedy okay you win smart person.
@@alex.does.comedy Thank you. :)
Ohmygod I didn't expect ni to be this accurate, it's really tragic, often times makes me feel like a more theory less practice material kind of 👽 scientist. Like I run the simulation but it's only in my head while in reality I'm running because this is getting overwhelming lol.
Your portrayal of Fi is really interesting to me. Fi sees what’s happening and relates it to their own experiences, thereby making it their own problem (put bluntly, by making it about them) and I find that this really isn’t empathy, just recall. A lot of fi users i know will try to comfort others by relating things to their own feelings and experiences, but don’t end up addressing the other person as much. Fi is introverted and focused on the self. I don’t think it could be called empathy...it’s more like sympathy when you think about it. (At least, that’s how I understand Fi. I’m not even an Fi user, just an ENFJ.) I think you exemplify Fi really well, though. Kudos to you!
Thanks! And yes compared to Fe, Fi seems so selfish with its emotional energy 😰
Totally agree as infp:Fi Ne Si Te. Fi is a selfish feeling function.
as an ISFP, I do use a lot of sympathy when facing with this kind of stuff, then followed by empathy. Growing up, I learned that its best to not telling the other person how 'I feel' or what to do if I'm in their shoes, instead just tell them the thing that is happening really is sad, and I would feel awful too. trying not to make it about me too much. I learned its best to not expressing how I feel and just let them talk, listen. If its something that I never been through, I'd just imagine how'd it be and try to get through it with them, the emotions, together. If this happened to me before? yeah I'll wait for them to calm down because I know what to do now. I'll give advice if needed. If not, I'll sit with them in silence.
Fi sympathy Fe empathy
Fi users yeah we definitely relate to people thru our own experiences but imo it actually helps us feel what that person is feeling. Ppl tend to share more vulnerable, traumatic things with Fi users than Fe users. Fe users comfort for the sake of making the person feel better, which is the end goal (good goal). Fi users comfort to connect to the sufferer on a soul level. I personally would want an Fi user to hear my problems bc they can become that person who’s hurting briefly. However in certain situations, if someone just wants sympathy I would prefer an Fe user. I personally don’t like Fe because although it has benefits, it’s a bit more shallow. Fi I feel like would understand intense suffering. (Referencing lovewho). Fe users (ESPECIALLY esfjs) get on my nerves because they will side with a cause even if it’s unethical, if they feel it will maintain group unity. That in itself can be a form of selfishness because it avoids the internal discomfort of conflict that Fe users experience. A more accurate label for Fi would be “self referencing,” not selfish. A good phrase for Fe is not always “selfless”, more like “group homeostasis” (the maintained balance of people’s feelings.)
I laughed out loud when Ni part came 😂 this is so accurate !! Sometimes i feel like my mind and body are disconnected ! I literally say the same things to myself ''now go ! Come on move ! '' to initiate something i've been overthinking.. great video 👏
Full reaction:
Se:Talking to them probably won't solve anything. Channel the energy to making the person feel better
Ne: Maybe it's better asking the person why they feel sad?
Fi: I understand but I think it'll make the person feel worse...
Si: Good effort but then I think most people don't have the will to follow 10 steps...To be happy again
Fe: The closest to a great response when someone is crying. Maybe we should all follow her example?
Ti: We cry to let our emotions out. So that we can function as a normal human being again. Does that answer your question?
Te: Being efficient here does not help...A+ for effort tho.
Ni: You're asking the real questions. Everyone has different needs and paths to heal from crying. However, you seemed to be confused and lost Ni...
Haha I agree, Fe has the best response here. When I found myself in this exact situation and couldn’t respond properly that’s what pushed me into learning about type. When I found Fe I was like “damn this is what I was missing!”.
Aw Si is so cute lol.
I love how Ti says "You're fine." 😆 I feel that way sometimes though, as someone who has only cried in front of people when someone or something has died, and low Fe is like, "Well I see that you're crying but you're all in one piece and I know you still have a job and I know your family is all fine so... you're fine..."
Ti is often how I deal with my own emotions too. I'm like please go away and then wonder why I feel depressed for days after.
“Better luck next time” was the best line ever! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
ENFJ
What people usually see:
Fe: "I'm so sorry that you have to go through this but I'm SO proud of you!"
Accidentally says all the right things to comfort them because Ni.
Inside the head:
Se: *internally exploding* WHO HURT YOU I WILL MURDER THEM MY SWEET BABY CHILD! THEY WILL RUE THE DAY! THEY WILL FEEL THE WRATH OF THIS MOM FRIEND!!! MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!
Ti to Se: "Shut up before you do something stupid... Don't get us in trouble please!"
As an infj I so get this 🤣
😂
omg Ni is very accurate, in that situation I know what I should do but it's weird, the best I can do is listen to you, advise you and at most give you a hug ... then I am exhausted
I just act like i never noticed it and probably never bring it up. Works most of the time!
I'm ISTP and I understood this so ... it could not be done better.
Huge compliment coming from an ISTP 😃
LOL Ni! So relatable! I've even questioned my profession (counseling) because of this awkward paralyzing dialogue of what should I do when this person is crying.
OMG LOL, honestly if someone came to me like your SI example did I would absolutely melt. That is the sweetest thing ever. They're trying 🤣
I have a soft spot for how pure Si is with Si things lol
I can really relate to debating in my head on what I should do to comfort someone. Most of the time I just end up sitting next to them and not saying a word. Que the awkward silence...
omg Te gave me total Aubrey Plaza as April Ludgate vibes!
as a fellow ENFP (4w3):
Ne - immediately trying to figure out who/what around is the source of tears / if i'm about to be crying too
Fi - always relating to the situation whether i've lived it or not (i've realised this overpowers me every time i'm talking to friends but my way of caring is literally "I understand!!! I feel it too!!! You are not alone/weird/abnormal!!!")
Te - awkward. uncomfortable. what do I do? what do I say? don't mess this up!!!
Si - it's unbearable to see someone in pain. must fix. provide warm drink and proven method of easing pain. end sad asap.
Aw this is rlly accurate! -Enfp 4w3
But also when all else fails I go full Si and throw a bunch of tissues and tea bags at them
I've never been more excited for a video in my entire life.
🖤👽
I’m interested to see how Te reacts in this😬🤭
the most interesting channel on UA-cam
I am ENTJ...Literally Te is me to a tee. 100% like wtf do i do?
We'll honestly just say something like "idk your problem, but you know I'll find a solution, all you have to do is explain to me." Or if they feel like can't say anything, we'll find something that can makes them relax, like hand them a drink, some food, play music, or just leave them be. Te user won't show any emotional attach to you, but we'll surely do anything to help when we have enough time.
I’m an ENFP so when I see someone cry my Te kicks in and I become this logic bomb if someone hurt them and want to instantly defend them because my Fi activates Te. or try and work out ways to comfort them if it’s not a perks.
Aha yes! Ne user here pretty much only interested in why they're crying! I also really struggle with Fe - I am hardly a shoulder to cry on despite my strong Fi as an ENFP. I never understood that until I learned about the functions, so now I'm so grateful I have! Thank God for Carl Jung
Fe here....pretty much exactly how I am! I'm strong for the person crying to try and soothe them then afterwards sneak off to cry myself from absorbing their emotions. 🤣🤣 The deep down Fe hiding in you did well! haha
my functions within me:
Ti: This is fascinating, an emotion flooding out of her, could never do that myself. Fascianting but frightening...
Ne: I wonder why she cries, a bad social breakup, a dead one, a random reasonless mental breakdown?
Si: The social rules say u have to comfort her, pls someone (Fe/Ne) try to find a way how...
Fe: Ohh my, she needs emotional comfort and support right now. I want to listn to her and support her and hug her
I think a major problem with INTPs is WHEN we express too much emotion, because we lose our sense of dignity and rationality in it.
Your Ti thinks it's fascinating? (I know it also says frightening but that's not my point) my Te freezes at the sight
@@EvilMeganium well yes, I find emotions and emotional reactions fascinating (as long as I'm not directly involved), maybe because it's sort of an own language
@@VioletRiha I mean, it is a bit amusing, but i don't know what to do at the moment so i just stand there awkwardly
@@EvilMeganium actually same, I literally freeze and internally want to escape the situation. But that's not a Ti perspective, rather the perspective of an overwhelmed Fe
Nice production! I really enjoyed this.
Much appreciated!
Goodness me, the Ni was spot on :') Especially coupled with my Fe, I'd consider all kinds of ways to try and ease the pain somehow but somehow finding a counter-argument to them all, all while freezing in place and not knowing what to do :') With Strangers and acquaintances that is, with close ones my Fe shines much more in the situation thankfully :D Splendid work!
Hahaha Ni and Te totally me.
Not helpful at all in emotional situation like that.
Overthinking and not capable to give the emotional care that might be required, but always be there for my friends when they need a full logic way to solve a problem
Man... My personality type isn't built to handle condolences at all! You cry, I say "good bye!"
It felt so, so liberating FINALLY being able to incorporate my Se after my Ni did all the planning, i remember how hopeless i always felt before i finally broke throught this.
“How do I make it stop.” God bless INTJs.-INFJ
😂🥰
"phone call, knock on my door, anytime I'm here" - this is said with internal reluctance, tbh. 😂
Hahahaha
"...humans don't have an off button."🤔
How many times have I been disconcerted by this very thing...
😏
my god, the Ni response reminds me of when one of my acquaintances was very clearly having a HORRIBLE time and i spent 30 mins trying to figure out what would be an appropriate response that wouldn’t be too inappropriate given our history and current level of connection. i ended up giving her a side hug and almost collapsing at the wave of sadness that i got from her, and i am only just now realizing that that may not have been a normal reaction. -INFJ
Oh yes, it's so hard to understand if people need a shoulder or some space. I keep wondering and sometimes end up being either apathetic or too bothered xD.
Apathy - ughhh my greatest enemy but also my greatest place of safety.
@@InternetLiJo that's lot more comfortable haha. I try to hide my apathy, maybe due to INFJ tendancies.
PS - I really loved your idea of demonstrating functions instead of personalities, relatable indeed.
Love it! Please make more!
INFJ here. The "cCmon body, move... Get over there...Move.." is soo acctuate :o I always have this problem, where i know what I should/need/have to do, but i just sit there unable to do it and I hate it
INFJ here- the Fe was pretty close I think! Good job haha. Maybe a little more distant than Fe but pretty close I think! That Ni and Fe is so spot on thought oh my GOODNESS that’s made me crack up, SO true it hurts
For me as an INFJ it looks like:
Ni - Now everything makes sense. Why she/he was like this... But why are they crying over broken glass... they probably have bigger problems and just couldn’t handle it.
Fe - poor her/him, makes me sad as well, it looks like they're struggling...
Ti - I should go and talk to them, cheer them up or something...
Ni again: But do they want it? they might feel embarrassed.. But maybe they'll feel better.. What kind of person are they? I think they might prefer to be alone..
Se - realising I'm staring at them
Love the Si, she's the only one that made me feel somewhat comfortable.
And the Ni is so much true. 😂
Ti dominant sees person crying. First instinct is to run, but Fe inferior makes you feel guilty, so you try to comfort them. Awkward situation results and you regret it for several months analyzing what you did wrong.
Damn yes this is so true!
Bahahaha, ‘ make it stop ‘ 💙 Also informative and giving much needed nuance to my understanding of the functions.
me : essentially Ni trying to Fe, because that’s what I’ve seen. Can you you see all the motors running and the wheels stuck in the ditch. 😂
I would let out a chuckle first before asking why they were crying 😂
-INTP
Te is doggedly action-oriented. It doesn't ignore problems...it hammers away at them until they are fixed. -an ENTJ
My kids crying: Who do I have to “talk” to?
Another person crying: Someone’s crying? *shrug*
YES! Exactly. My kids, my loved ones - SE comes bolting out like a mafia boss, lol.
So as an ENFP, when I see someone crying I have my Ne, but then my Fi is super strong and hates seeing people upset and then that activates my Te and I become this logic bomb and get super protective and want to confront whoever hurt them (despite being conflict avoidant). And then when that dies down my Si is there to comfort them.
As a Ti dom this is how I reacted to a family member crying : I sat on the same couch as them in silence.
Yeah, as a SeTi, we either deem it "horrible, something has to be done NOW!" or "yeah, probably overreacting. Time to focus on solutions instead of emotions". There's no in between.
I love your video. The introverted intuition was so me
Nice. One of the better efforts at portraying other types (which I'm sure is not a typical INTJ ability).
Depth in understanding (Ni) is the basis of any good translation.
@@InternetLiJo It was the outward manifestation (portrayal/acting-out) of the internal understanding that I found impressive (and amusing). Well done.
So good! Recent sub. Guess I should be going back through the collection.
The introverted intuition is spot on. 🙌🏻 That is my dominant function. After I analyze the situation I use my second function Fe to empathize with them. 💖
I'm an IXTP but i relate a LOT with the Ni part.
Si (what an ISTJ!!) was doing her absolute best, she almost made *me* cry 😂
She really was doing her best 😭
I looked up the primary functions for INFJ and oh my gosh. All of the corresponding responses have gone through my head in these situations. Which one is prevalent depends on my mood that day and my relationship to the person who's crying.
when I try to help I usually make things worse or I flee. books are great(they don't cry). now I got to see how I come across(disturbing). btw cute canine
*INTPs* processing it would be like:
Ti: Trying to figure out the reason of what made you cry, and maybe try to help you see that it isn’t worth crying over. First instinct is trying to find a solution rather than comforting you. Resort to their other functions if the first two don’t work.
Ne: Having many possibilities going through their head as to what made you cry.
Si: Have probably gone through this before (and maybe even searched up “how to help someone when they are crying” online). End up giving you tissues and water. The question of ‘what else helps people when they’re sad?’ is probably going through their heads right now.
Fe: Are beside you the entire time, just in case if you need something. Don’t initiate contact unless if you do. Maybe a couple of pats and back rubs here and there.
Me as iNTJ female:
“Who is crying? Am I a close friend of that person?" -> Yes -> go there and ask "what's happening? I will help to solve your problem."
No -> "Does that person look like so depressed that they need the presence of others? Or Does he/she look like he/she needs privacy?" -> Go there and keep silent or just go away and pretend that I know nothing.
Oof Ni is how I felt most of my life recently I have been doing slightly better with people I care for...
i felt the fi example on a personal level
Reminds me of my slightly crazy ENFP (I think) former coworker when I told her my dog died, "I put a spell on my dog so she'll live forever" She wasn't joking, and she didn't say something like, "Sorry for your loss"
This is so interesting !!! I honestly can see that in her portrayal of Ni she comes from NT perspective and way of thinking, and it's interesting to see how even though 2 types have Ni dominant, due to their auxiliary function differences they may approach it differently; for me, (infj) my Ni approach would be more into analyzing her personality and feelings and what may the other person find emotionally comfortable and helpful, and from my Fe, I would instinctively jump to help and defend, no hesitation.
And whenever I watch you, it's like watching the INTJ in my own life hahaha keep going, these are awesome!
I relate to your Ni portrayals so much!
* INTJ trying play different emotions *
my reaction: cringe
Omg, I'm enfj and that Fe bit was exactly how I sound. I don't know about the others but that one, I can vouch for that, that was on point.
The Fi one is relatable even though this is parody 😂 ! For example something bad happens to someone else (lost dog/relative/job) and I imagine what it would be like if I was in their shoes, how it would feel if I lost my dog/relative/job etc..
Me when someone cries: stares at them deciding if i should comfort them or ignore it
I don’t agree with the Ti’s interpretation because most likely Ti will be concerned with coming up with some sort of logical solution to deal with the emotional problem versus being avoidant of the issue at hand.
Fair, that’s a bit more Te, It’s primary concern first is going to be - does this make sense to me?
@@InternetLiJo by the way love your content! 👽🖤
Your depictions of Ni always crack me up 😂❤️
SHES A PIECE OF WORK 😂👌🏻
As an INFJ if the crying person was my friend or close family member I would be Fe, but if it was someone I don't know well I would be Ni.
This video was particularly poignant to me as an aspergers INTJ..
/-Crying infants/the noise
would fill me with abject terror until I learned to differentiate the cries..
As an Enfp....the Ne and Fi assessment is accurate. Get out my head! 😂😂
I'm very excited for this ☺️ I feel like it's gonna be extremely accurate
I have to reset the " xx number of days since last crying incident" clock because I cried this week. This made me LOL! It helps me to understand how people react to me crying which won't happen again this year! LOL!
When someone is crying, sometimes the best thing is just to sit next to them and let them talk. 👍
oh wow, WHAT?! That was really interesting, thanks for the video! It hasn't been clear to me at all how different people can internally process a situation. I'm an Ni dominant (INFJ), and I thought that most people were processing things in a similar way as I do. This is probably a very normal thing to believe, since we don't have access to each other's internal worlds; we only know about our own. But if this video really represents how other function users process things, then that's really mind-blowing... Can people really process things that differently? Even though we all belong to the same species?
Anyways, your Ni one was on point, at least very similar to how I process things. The over-analysis... jesus, it's too real. Of course you'd know Ni well since you're a dominant user, but I thought it was really cool how you were able to isolate the dominant function without leaning much into either Te (INTJ) or Fe (INFJ). I always found it confusing, the difference between ENFJ (Fe-Ni) and INFJ (Ni-Fe), but I think I understand it better now thanks to your video.
INFJ
iN - what should I do?
eF - I really feel for you
iT - This is a uniform human experience and going through these emotions will strengthen them
eS - Being there in the moment
I think I’m an INTJ but I’m not sure, but when someone cries I feel so uncomfortable because I don’t know what to do at all or how to comfort the person, I’ll just stand there and wait for someone else to do the job.
Si spot on. I usually result to breathing and sensory exercises.
i actually clicked on this bc the thumbnail looked like i was learning the periodic table but then i read the title. good thing is i dont regret it.
A person: *Cries.*
Other type: Here have some water.
INTJ: *It must be the aliens.*
hahahaha
Hysterical! ENTJ here. Yep, pull it together...I got nothin', can I leave for several hours and bring back food, coffee? Maybe bring you the remote and we can watch the Animal channel?..oh, wait maybe not that..
