INTJ vs INFJ: Telling the Difference

so if you I cried at work, that doesn't tell nothing about you being either an infj or intj.

but if you felt like you shouldn't be crying bc everyone isn't, then you prob would be a infj.

in other hand, if you feel like crying and just cry bc you could not care less about others'emotional state, then you are intj.

Now that I’m letting go of codependent tendencies - I see I’m naturally more of an INTJ 🖤

Cheers, great vid

What if I don't care about other people's thinking or feeling?

I appreciate this break down. I know it's old now, but thanks to the you 6 years ago that made this video 😆 When I started taking these Myers Briggs tests, I used to always get INTJ. And I related to INTJ enough that I stuck with it for a long time. I think I started to question that when I learned that INFJs are often drawn to people work, and I became a therapist... so I started to look into that one more and realized that was spot on. I've heard people compare INFP and INFJ, stating that often times INFPs get their type mixed up and think they are INFJs. I don't hear that much comparing INFJ with INTJ. I've always wondered if INFJ and INTJ are actually similar and people just don't talk about it. And... here you are, talking about it 😁

I dont know if anyone had the same experience. But I used to be INTP and have shifted to INTJ the last few months. I used to stay in my familiar environment, until I couldn't bear it anymore and had to find courage to make a plan for the future and now feel confident about wanting to move actively about certain parts of my life. I also stopped caring what family members think because I realised that I can trust in my own judgement, perception and intellect - which I didn't dare to do before. If anyone resonates with this, I would appreciate some more insight from you guys as well.

TY for stopping showing off your chest hair. That was really distracting.👍

damn

I feel that we should think more.

I've been watching videos for weeks and I have come to the realisation I am either INFJ or INTJ but the jury is still out.

I can relate to both

This isnt helping lol i took the test once by myself and again with a friend. First time intj 2nd time infp. Lol so i believe the first one is correct. Intj makes sense.

Am infj or I thought I was, I found am intj

F**k your feelings and f**k your facts!
Autism kinda distorts things for me.

i am in between intj and infj

As an INFJ-T, i took mbti test again only to find i am an INTJ-T haha

i've given myself a headache trying to learn stacks and what they mean. this is the only explanation that made sense to me!!

As an INTJ with an INFJ partner, I can confirm we are very similar but have our differences. I tend to be more assertive and direct, while she tends to be more delicate in getting her point across.

😅😅😅i don't know myself what personality I'm. Cause one time i got infj then again i test after 4-5 months later i got intj . I can't believe this when i found intj woman only .5%. So after 1-2 moths later again i got intj . Still can't believe

That helped me so much that I had to say it on here

INTJ with an INFJ teen daughter. Tell me what I need to know!

I have a lot of feelings. I just don't think they matter as much as most people do.

As an INFJ with a very high F function, I really don't care much at all what other people are thinking but care almost obsessively what others are feeling.

You are killing me with your INFJ Sketches, my belly hurts from laughing, by the way I am talking about another video but hey, you catched that already because you looked half a second in my eyes, so you now know me like people know each other twenty years... thus Thanks for the Laughter.

I am an INFJ and I have a teacher who was VERY complex to study but he attracted me to study him. He was INXJ. The only thing left was F or T... He was kinda tough and furious while teaching and he would scold u.. but when u'll cry , he'll be careful... he wouldn't ask u to stop crying but he'll look at u again and again and try to talk about any different topic and check if u r sad or angry at him. He shall pull out jokes in the class. kinda tough about his rules. but like a chameleon he is soft of heart, kind and sweet at home i bet (and his niece being my class fellow told me the same). He likes me and counts me among his good students as i am different from other students (INFJ). Well i think he is an INTJ..... What do u think? cuz he has a kinda rational mind, as we INFJs prioritize the feelings of others, he would behave equally with all kinds of people either they are older than him or younger.... And INFJs ain't, I'd say in a sense id disrespectful like he seems to me... ANYWAYS, I like his rules of life and critical thinking

I’m an INFJ and my twin sister is an INTJ. I’m not sure if it’s like this for everyone, but the differences in us are quite obvious. While I have too much empathy for everyone am really good at understanding people’s feelings and points of view and know exactly what to say to make them happy and make them like me, my sister doesn’t really care, and only has empathy towards a few people that she is very close with and doesn’t really like to show it as much as I do. My sister also doesn’t like to change her opinions or feelings for other people unless she thinks they have a better point. I on the other hand, will keep my feelings and thoughts quiet or balanced to please others. I also cry a lot more easily than my sister, and she always manages to solve my problems very intelligently in a way I can’t. I’m not sure if this means anything or if it has to do with the personality types, but I think it’s interesting.

Thank you for effort. That was really good explanation for a attentive listener. It will help people to know themselves better.

Intjs hardly think before talking. Infjs overthink

Intj here. The one I love is Infj. So I know the exact difference

Once I take test I am INTJ second time INFJ.
Again after few years I give I am INTJ again I try after a few days I am INFJ
🤣🤣🤣🤣

INTJs imo feel just as much as anyone except they internalize it more and rather than sense intuitively what others are feeling they rely on external signals such as facial expressions and behaviour to clue them in, so they prefer it if you tell them directly.

INTJ female here, we have less friends compared to INFJ who have more friends throughout life

So now I know why stupid idiots make me fell like crying!

I dont want to talk about how everyone is feeling.
INTJ

What about extroverted thinking and extroverted feeling at the same time😂

👍

You know , one thing we both INFJ's have in common.
if you hurt us, we'll forgive you and make you better.
If you harm us, we'll find solutions to heal you

but if you EXPLOIT us, we will say words that will leave you traumatized for the rest of your lives

Thank you so much! I wish I could have found this video before. I was lost btw these two types to identify myself for a while, because I'm very rational and logical person, I am a thinker. But!
I was very confused, because I don't care about others` logic and thinking that much, I don't care what others think about me or anything else, I'm not competitive.
but I care if I make others feel bad around me or bcs of my actions or behaviour. I don't deny that Thinker type would too. But I was sure that my F is extroverted, however I don't tend to make decisions based on emotions, even though I do consider everyone else's comfort and how my decision will affect others, especially spiritually.

But all INTJ traits (well, most of them) I could find in myself and couldn't relate to a lot of stereotypes about INFJ, especially couldn't relate to other F types.
The last tiny bit of doubt was left is gone, thanks to ur explanation, and now I'm sure that I'm an INFJ.

It's embarrassing that I even care this much about personality type. But my entire life I was looking for an environment I could feel at home, a same mindset, but couldn't find. I couldn't figure out what is wrong with me, why can't I be like everyone else. When I discovered MBTI, it's like I'm finally visible.

تحياتي لك أخ Frank
شرحت القضية وكأنك طبيب جراح
وما فهمته منك ، أن INFJ يتواصل
مع الآخرين بروح و وجدان إنساني
معطيا مجالا أوسع ورحابة صدر
لاختلاف مشاعر الآخرين عن شعوره
هو مع الحرص على خدمتهم وإدخال
السرور عليهم ، بغير إنتظار مقابل
أما INTJ فهو يتواصل مع الآخرين
من منظور العقل والمنطق والفكر
بصفة عامة ، ويتسامح مع ردود
الأفعال والإنفعالات والانطباعات
المختلفة للأشخاص ولكنه لايتسامح
مع تباين جهات النظر التي تخرج
عن المنطق والفكر السليم من وجهة
نظره ، وبذلك تتباين الشخصيتين
مع الإتفاق على خدمة الناس وإدخال
السعادة عليهم دون النظر لمردود ذلك
هذا ما فهمته .. وفي النهاية لك خالص
تحياتي وتمنياتي لك بدوام التميز💚

INFJ 🙋🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

INTJ woman here. People often think i have RBF. I always correct them that this is just my concentration/thinking face.

Them: "But you look like that, like....all the time."
Me: "Well yeah. Cuz im thinking like....all the time."

You were better 5 years ago! And I know why! ;)

hey frank...
thank you veryyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy much😍

now one of my mentaly problems is gone and I........just relaxing

both intj and infj.they are able to think.with existing information, which means they are really good at figuring things out, yet infj have a bigger memory of peoples emotion
, intp have a bigger memory of peoples idea

Who is better enfj×intj or infj×enfj

I’m an INTJ…I can’t stand overly emotional people. I’ll give you a solution but that’s the end of it.

The main difference between infj and intj is.... though both of them are misunderstood....but everyone admires and respects an intj... everyone finds them mysterious and interesting....but no one gives a fuck for a infj....though they don't know us (infjs) as well....but they don't even realize that they (people)don't understand us. 🙂
Intj and infj both are lonely...but not the same tragic
Intj- get admiration. They aren't affected by people. They value their own self.
Infj- always there for people. Care for people. Priotize loved ones amove their own. But nobody gives a fuck. 🙂

but i dont know who i am😭😭

You really help me start to understand why it can be so difficult working with bots or possible humans for good purposes together while they are undercover. The invisible players I've met in social media seem very intelligent & wounded. Lots of INTJs up in here, I guess. Thx!🤖🤔

My best friend is INTJ. I am INFJ.

Frank you have the best and the simplest explanation about this! I don't really need others to know and agree with my thinking. I always have my own thinking circuit in my head upon getting all sorts of information and try to rationalize my feeling and my action. I am handling more of my thinking VS my emotion in my daily life. I think I am quite emotionally stable, or am I just unaware of it??? I will still stick with INFJ even though my recent test revealed that I might be more INTJ. I am more comfortable to be INFJ because I really hate any conflict or 'politics' around me. To be exact, I am afraid of chaos and unharmony situation. I would just flea away from this kind of things... But I would agree that it slightly shift towards T when I become older. I am really goal oriented, everything I did got a reason. But sometimes, I will just 'nah.... just let go of anything sometimes...' and stop thinking about anything...
