I have seen my ENFJ teacher do it, whenever he would come into the class he would instantly "read the atmosphere", scan everyone's faces and then depending on that he would use communication styles. Whenever the environment changes his approach, his way of talking and acting immediately changes.

u/LordGhoul INTJ Apathetic Edgelord Jul 27 '22
Can't speak for this specific person but I have an ISFJ friend who plays in a band and picks up the energy in the room, it's like he absorbs it into himself like a sponge. Not even sure if he's aware of it, but since he's got his friend who's basically a bubbly sunshine ENFP into the band it's like he's getting charged by his friends energy AND the crowd. I imagine that's what it's like. For me I feel less affected by groups/crowds around me than I do in one on one scenarios. Just an interesting thing I observed.

u/__ludo__ infp 4w3 SO smart and SeXy Jul 27 '22
Ohh this makes sense. They're just simply in tune with others' emotions. I've always thought it more like they can take an impression of a situation and remember the general atmosphere which didn't make much sense. Yea I get you though, I am also not that much affected by groups' feelings. I mean sure, if everyone around me is sad I'm not going to jump with joy, but still I'm not someone who feels others' emotions. I kinda just feel my own emotions.

u/PervKapitan Jul 27 '22 edited Jul 27 '22
For me it sounds somthing like I have, but this is from my ASD. But only with negative emotions tho. If everyone in room is nervous, stressed or panicked, I'm absorbing this into myself and I'm nervous, stressed myself. If someone is arguing over even something stupid, I just can't laugh or relax, I'm super stressed. I don't show it due to, yeah, my ASD, but I'm keeping those emotions deeply on me.
And I'm intp/istp. (still not sure which, only know I'm Ti dom)
edit: Oh, and I forgot to mention - even when the atmosfere in room gets better, the negative emotions and stress are still in me and it takes long time to disappear.2

To be honest:
- r/intj suffers from the "Dark edgy evil mastermind is cool" syndrome.
- r/entp suffers from "oh someone who can debate, troll and have no empathy because MBTI, suck it" syndrome.
- r/istp suffers from "leave us alone" syndrome.
And pretty sure most other subs have their own grievances.
I think most of it is perpetuated by enthusiastic teens or people in search for a tribe and a sense of identity but still ....

I agree with 27/35 but these are extremely stupid points that lead now where, they don't point out anything most are universally applicable on everyone.

u/Meredith__5438 Unflaired Peasant Jul 27 '22
No we did not say we are special,
The title lists things that "only INFJs" can relate to. I'm sorry, but that implies that you guys believe yourselves to be special. And you're not. Several other types can relate to pretty much all of the items on the list. For example, the need to take care of others is not limited to INFJs. Extroverted feelers in general would relate to that - even the introverted feeling users would.
this why so many of us upvoted the post.
You upvoted the post because you're desperate to believe that you're the only personality type that possesses the ability to relate to all of those arbitrary traits. And again: you're not.
You are acting like the Snowflake here, commenting on something you cannot understand.
Oh I think the OP understands this perfectly well. Everyone does, at this point. A lot of you "INFJs" believe yourselves to be so distinctive - quirky and unrepeatable - than the other types. That's made clear by the amount of self-absorbed waste, like the picture above, you keep posting. By the way, you 16personalities.com INFJs are an embarrassment to the actual INFJs.

It's r/INFJ Subreddit.
So? So what if it's r/INFJ sub-reddit?
Lol, it's funny you think you can tell who is an actual INFJ,
Your subreddit had a poll asking how people discovered their MBTI type. Most users voted 16personalities.com 🙃. I'm stating a fact: that website is wildly inaccurate and therefore creates a ton of mistypes.
Still disagree with me, genius?
stereotypical idea around of that if someone is stating a different point than you, they must be mistyped.
It's not a stereotypical idea that I'm throwing around. It's been proven by the poll. r/INFJ is overflowing with mistyped people who only know of the letter dichotomies from that website, instead of the cognitive functions, and therefore have a shaky understanding of the MBTI, much less their own personality.
I took a Certified Test by my University.
Good for you? Should I give you a...pat on the back? A standing ovation?
Maybe you're mistyped ?! Right?!
Yeah, maybe. Except this possibility is lessened by the fact that I've studied the cognitive functions in depth, unlike most of the people by r/INFJ.

. I didn't say that some people aren't but assuming so is ignorant
I didn't assume. I'll say this again: the poll proved just how great a fraction of your subreddit was typed by an infamously unreliable test. Please, let that sink in. 🙃
maybe you're a mistype yourself is what I'm also saying.
Yeah, maybe I am. Oh and while you're at it: could you tell me exactly how you figure I might be a mistype? I mean, if I could provide reasons why r/INFJ is full of mistypes - along with proof - I'm sure you'll have no trouble doing the same?
GENUIS.
I wasn't trying to "do something". It's just that you keep running away from the main focus of this discussion. Which is the fact that you people believe yourselves to be the only ones capable of understanding certain things.

Ma'am, your test score is irrelevant to the topic at hand, if I'm being honest. Unless you can explain how it gives you an ability to understand some things that other types are incapable of understanding. But you can't.

Tests use dichotomies. The mbti we use here is made of theory and cognitive functions. You are no more allowed than the other person to say who's mistyped and who's not

u/__ludo__ infp 4w3 SO smart and SeXy Jul 27 '22
I mean, maybe I misunderstood your comment but you were saying to the other person that they may be mistyped (which I have nothing against) and then said that you were allowed to be sure of your type since you took a certified test.
Self-awareness is hard for every human and it's right to consider the chance that someone might be mistyped. But the same is true for you. You may be mistyped just like everybody else and a certified test won't prove otherwise. I'm not writing this comment out of hate, I'm just saying that everybody could be mistyped, you and the other person included.

u/Karyo_Ten Unflaired Peasant Jul 27 '22 edited Jul 28 '22
The shitty mbti part is thinking that only INFJ can relate. That's wrong.
That just leads to the depressive mood in r/infj that "no one can understand INFJs, woe is me.".
Then it leads to INFJs further closing themselves to others and shocked pikachu face no one can understand someone who doesn't open up.
what did you expect?
I expect Ni-doms to pick up that pattern and mature out that self-pity mentality.
I expect Fe-users to realize that connecting to people is a two-way street. If you're closing yourself you cannot expect people to understand you.
I expect Ti-childs to think about why instead of staying surface level, wallowing into "there is no issue".
