Random INFP:
As an INFP, I don’t think the feeling of not fitting ever goes away. It’s nice to interact with other INFPs. This is where I go.
I keep a lists of INFPs on Twitter. Currently there are two lists of all the INFPs since they Twitter lists max out at 500.
Twitter – INFP List 1
Twitter – INFP List 2
Those are the full list of every INFP I’ve found on Twitter. I follow these lists in order to get the jist of all the variations of INFP personalities out there. The best way to use the list is to look through the tweets and pick and choose someone that you find interesting. Be selective. If you want conversation, check to see if that person replies. You will not relate with every INFPs. My INFP full lists are meant only be the starting point to help you find INFPs you can relate to.
I comment on Personality Cafe daily. New posts appear on a daily basis. Replies are very frequent. Personality cafe is monitored so I’ve encountered zero spam. Also you have to post 10 times before you get to post links so that keeps the spam down.
Things I like:
This is the other group I visit daily. I don’t think the posts are as varied. Comments happen daily, but new posts don’t happen that much which is good because threads tend to stick around until it’s fully covered. I would say there’s a couple of dozen regulars that rotate in and out. Some comment for awhile and then they get bored and leave to be replaced by the next group. All the posts happen in under the “Discussion” tab.

I'm an INFP. I'm pretty good at it. This is my only qualification for writing an INFP blog.
Thank goodness for the low barriers to self-publication.
As a dayjob, I work in web development because no one will pay me to be professional dilettante. By night, I use my superpowers to wage unending war against writer's block and procrastination.
My unfinished design portfolio site. I will eventually finish it if I need to find another job.
My personal daily blog detailing how I'm trying to achieve my goals. It's where I take all the things I espouse in this blog and try to prove it.
The problem with being shy from kindergarten through high school was that when I moved out into the real world I didn't have any understanding of other people. Studying the Myers-Briggs helped. Even though MBTI types helped as a tool to cut through the layers between myself and other people, the MBTI was a hacksaw where I needed a knife. I needed something more discerning.
I discovered the New Personality Self-Portrait (PSP) shortly after finding the MBTI and found that the two worked perfectly together. Where the MBTI told me that INFPs were idealistic, the PSP told me what that particular INFP was most idealistic about, whether it was relationships or work or self-discovery. The PSP let me figure out what was most important in lives of others.
