10 Strange Reasons People Cannot Stand #INFJs

The #INFJ is among the rarest #personality type in the world. They’re the ‘#Extroverted-#Introverts’ of the MBTI, and they really can be walking talking contradictions.
So is it their rarity and #unpredictability that makes them appear elusive and hard to relate to.
Uff-da, as my Swedish relatives would say.
I've a little neuro-divergence here and there. Not exactly of the sort you describe.
I'm a little concerned that some readers will read your post & feel reinforced in their notion that being #Introverted is ND, while being #Extroverted is neurotypical.
This oft-reinforced misconception is as troubling (to me, anyway) as the thought that some ND things can be shrugged off as "they're just shy".

Sometimes I think about being #extroverted and #networking at #social gatherings.
I'd spent a few years in #counseling, most with a single #therapist. I was always trying to become "whole" - more #extroverted, more consistent, more something - and he said to me, "What if this is who you are and you need to accept it?"
@autism101 Social situations are tricky. I enjoy connecting with people, but being social is work. I fall into #masking, but I am slowly trying to be mindful of it and try minimize this. It really is like being an out gay man for me. Filters.
I can be gregarious and flirty. I never feel #extroverted. I’m surprised when others interpret it that way. Alcohol amplifies my expression, drops filters. I avoid it because I can get a bit too friendly.
Relevant to my earlier post...
So, I took one of those #MeyersBriggs tests (16Personalities.com) and for the #Introverted / #Extroverted category my results were 94% introverted / 6% extroverted.
94% #introvert!
People might find it strange that I enjoy getting up on stage, performing, am a good conversationalist, great at small talk, etc. It's just that people (and I do love people) EXHAUST me. Social situations can sometimes be fun and engaging for me but, in the end, absolutely drain me.
My first attempt at posting #fanart online. It's #Emma from the #anime titled The Promised Neverland

@ben as an #extroverted #introvert (I suspect there are many like me), the value I get from #office spaces is social: #coffee, #lunch, and happy hour. During those venues, I engage in (what I’ve since learned is) a form of dialectical #behavioral therapy: talking out the problem with a team of colleagues 1:1 or in a group.
50% of the convo is getting to #consensus, clarifying and identifying the problem, and the other half is personal #relationship and #network building.
