One of the sixteen personality types under the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator, which measures psychological preferences.

The letters in INFP stand for: Introverted, iNuitive, Feeling, Perceiving.

The INFP's cognitive functions are used in this order: Introverted feeling (Fi), Extroverted Intuition (Ne), Introverted Sensing (Si), and Extroverted Thinking (Te).

INFPs are a part of the Idealist Temperament (NF) and are often referred to as "The Healers","The Idealists", or "The Dreamers".

Being highly imaginative, creative and empathetic, INFPs often have a great propensity for language, writing, psychology, art, music, and altruism.

Although known for being quiet and gentle, if an INFP's values are violated, they can become harshly defensive of their principles. The INFP's values are at the core of their idealism and motivation in life.

Running for exercise and picking up trash you find along the way. It's good for the body, mind, soul, and environment! Started in Sweden but is making its way to the U. S.

Excuse me, what the actual fuck?
INFP's seem to be very casual around people they are familiar with. Or even crazy, you could say.
They absolutely fucking loathe to meet new people, either being socially awkward or an ass.

Around people they have grown close and even trust, they can be very outgoing and loud.

I am an INTJ and I love INFPs. They are very good catalysts for almost anything. They are literally all opportunists; and they are often very enthusiastic and dedicated people who just want to have nothing but fun.

A negative aspect about the INFP is that they are very predictable in nature and have a poor understanding of psychology or how the world works. They are also the personality type that is the most gullible and are prone to being brainwashed/indoctrinated/taken advantage of quite easily.

And as I stated before, they are literally all opportunists; and once you play into their Fi, you can basically hijack their whole individuality and can become the remote control of them without their realization.

They are very emotional creatures and take things personally. They tend to apply themselves to everything, although their opinions can be liable to change given the situation. They are the most flexible personality type and the one with the least conviction.
If you want someone who is supportive and creative and also has an open-mindset for almost anything; then INFPs are for you.
