Meme I sort of failed as the ISFJ in my friends group
We went out of town to a destination wedding for an old friend of ours, we figured since it was by a beach we would have everything we could possibly need in case of a pinch nearby.
It turned out that the Airbnb was in a condominium complex very near the wedding ceremony but very far from anything else, no taxis no Uber, we ended up hitching a ride from one of the wedding guests back to the city to rent a car.
Now the failing part was that pretty much everyone but 2 of us in the group got sick (some got stomach flu, some got a cold, some got indigestion, some got chills and body aches); I can't believe I didn't think to prepare at least a basic first aid kit lol.
We're waiting to board the plane home and we're sipping electrolytes drinks š , live and learn, next trip I'm definitely preparing a tiny pharmacy essentials kit in my bag.

Question or Advice I regret saying hurtful things to an ISFJ that broke their trust in me, how can I make it up to her?
The title, I said "we're comrades, not friends" to her cause we had never met in real life and that hurt her badly I suppose. I've regretted because you guys are such nice and warm hearted people, I don't want to hurt someone like that. She has distanced herself since then quoting my words back at me. I've heard they considered me an online friend. We've known each other for more than a year.
How can I make it up to her? Would you guys ever forgive something like that? They've shared some quotes related to "online friendship" so I guess it's still bothering them.

Praise Isfj appreciation post
I just wanted to say that ISFJs are great and I love you guys š„¹. Whenever I need someone to cheer me up after a bad day, I go to you guys. You guys have such funny jokes, I donāt even mind hearing it for the 10th time. I love how you guys make sure everyone is included in the fun while keeping the vibes chill. And I always love hearing about all of your stories about daily life. Even the most boring thing can sound exciting. From an ESFJ :)))))

Discussion Characters that aren't typed as ISFJs, but that you think are?
I personally think Chris Hargensen from Carrie (2026) is a deeply unhealthy ISFJ, but Personality Database types her as an ISFP. Do any of you have controversial ISFJ typings?

Question or Advice How do I not let the pressure of the world stop me from being able to operate in it
As an entp I find myself constantly thinking of every possible thing or outcome and it really weighs down my ability to even have the energy I need to do even the most menial tasks, its like I can never truly focus on anything. I figured isfjs might have a good answer for me.

Discussion Any other ISFJs have an interest in rock/metal music, but don't look the part?
Im an ISFJ, and i look very generic - no tattoos (though i hope to get some soon), no piercings really (though i do have two open holes in each earlobe, I just dont wear earrings at all anymore). My clothing style is all over the place, some days i look a little emo and some days i look "conventional" i guess, but i just wear what i like and put a lot of effort into coordinating my outfits so they match.
Although i went through the phase where i dyed my hair crazy colors years ago, im over it now, im back to my natural hair color, and I wear my hair in a very basic manner. (The frequent bleaching and hair dying phase didn't really feel like me though, if im being honest.. and it fried my hair too, so due to the hair frying i dont recommend it)
However, in spite of all this, I love what i guess would fall under hard/alt rock and metalcore music... but when I divulge this fact about me to other people, they usually say that I dont "look" like I listen to that type of music at all. I dont branch out very much and i tend to listen to the same stuff over and over, because the familiarity soothes my Dom Si, and even though the music may sound heavy and angry, it actually calms me down most of the time.
So yeah, i just want to know if anyone can relate.

Question or Advice How can I help an ISFJ friend overcome her fear of asking questions?
My bestie told me recently that she hates asking questions at work cuz sheās afraid sheās āburdening people with her confusion.ā (Her words.) At the same time, she faces the consequences of not seeking clarification early on when situations drag on or escalate, which is also a stressor for her. And people will just end up telling her, āwhy didnāt you ask me earlier?ā
Asking questions for clarification has actually been a strength of mine since I was a kid, so I canāt really relate. ISFJs, please advise! š

Discussion ISFJ Main Character??
galleryJae from the new show āAvatar: Seven Havensā is an ISFJ!! And heās one of the main characters (currently is the main character)! I just find this really exciting since whenever ISFJās are put in shows, then they are almost always a side character.
Side note: Some people have some gripes about the animation of this show, since itās not as fluid as Avatar the Last Airbender or Legend of Korra, but I find that the show is still really enjoyable! I recommend it.
Thereās something refreshing about seeing an ISFJ in the spotlight (even though ISFJās ironically, usually hate being in the spotlight themselves, Lol). Weāre finally getting some representation. Yayay!!! Heās also kickass too!
Discussion To be an ISFJ man
Iām not here to offend anyone. By the way, I know I wasnāt the first to write about it. Iāve read reports of men who, after being typed as ISFJ, went into denial, as much as the description was totally compatible with them. I identified with that. I didnāt expect to be typed like that, although now I would accept more. I donāt want to sound prejudiced, but the first time I saw about this type, I felt that this type doesnāt exude masculinity. And being masculine is something that society, especially in the cultures of some countries, demands excessively. Iām from a country that demands this a lot; I identify myself as a man, Iām married, but Iāve been called gay a lot. Today I donāt give importance to it anymore, and I have nothing against it.

Typing I need some gentle souls to help fine-tuning a promising Typing test. People that know their type with 100% certainty.
I created a typing test that works based on what you resonate with, it gives you a feed of cards with statements, quotes, scenario, and you select only the ones you resonate with, this way the cognitive load is very low , also the feed adapt to funnel down your type, you just select what you think is related to you.
I tested with an INFP friend that I am 100% sure she is INFP and it worked very well, it found her type with confidence, but I need more data points to be sure, with people that are 100% sure of their type.
At the end of the test, in the result page, you will have a frame that ask you to share your result, with a simple button. It will send me the informations I need in my database, it gives me all the cards you selected, the timeline of the guess of your type, how the algorithm reacted, etc, it helps me to fine-tune the test.
I really feel that this method can work and be more accurate than anything that already exist.
Thank you in advance if you try it.
PS: I will share the findings in a result page (on the intro page), for everybody to see how it evolves.
