All,
This is Ed. You may have noticed that I unsubscribed. Well, now I am back-haha to all of you. I just want to let everyone in this tribe know that we are probably one of the most active tribes. I guess we INFJs just have no lives ;)

Re: INFJ-best tribe
Mon, August 3, 2009 - 10:37 AMWhy did you unsubscribe? Also I'm glad I'm not the only one that does this sort for thing. I am notorious for deleting profiles or unsubscribing to online social networks, but Tribe is the only one I have never gotten to that point with.
Glad your back, you certainly keep things interesting! -

Re: INFJ-best tribe
Mon, August 3, 2009 - 1:52 PMEd glad you're back. You add a bit of spice which has added energy here, gets me motivated to post. Shifting4now I haven't joined enough things to delete my profiles but I have blocked all then unblocked parts then reblocked...trying to find my comfort zone.
The gift I've gained from this tribe as well as the Empath tribes (lots of INFJ's on that one too) is being able to actually communicate in a way that feels safe. It was always easier for me to be a support person and listen and assist others. On these tribes I'm chatting with people who live in a similar world and can actually relate with similar experiences, challenge my perceptions and give honest feedback. The confidence building that comes with understanding the self and others really translates, for me, into healthier connections in the physical as well as ether worlds.

Re: INFJ-best tribe
Mon, August 3, 2009 - 8:17 PMI left because I accidentally wrote on someone else's blog about myself because he had some similar experiences as me. I looked further into his blog after writing about myself, and found out that the man had some creepy pictures (inappropriate at that) and was kind of overbearing in his blog and lived in Columbus where I go to school. All of his friends had weird pictures and about 95% male-not my tastes. Not to pre-judge him, but I did not want to take any chances. -

Re: INFJ-best tribe
Mon, August 24, 2009 - 5:59 AMJust getting my bearings on the fact that I am an INFJ, and that there are so many of us...wow! Feels good and though I feel like I am already intruding into an existing conversation, welcome back Ed :)
Yep, its a good tribe to be a part of, huh? Just went thru a similar experience in life...I shared, discovered I was sharing with the wrong person...am still trying to rectify the error...feeling bummed, was not a little upset but I guess I gotta let go at some point.
Just when do we learn enough to love ourselves BEFORE we have all but torn ourselves up inside- out?

Maybe that happens after we've done it just one too many times? Nah, that doesn't sound right, sounds too dramatic for an INFJ. Maybe it happens so gradually that we forget how far we've actually come - we forget to pat ourselves on the back for doing so much better these days. Well, I'm hitting up the GYM more so I can stretch my arm enough to pat myself on the back, darn, unfortunately I can now kick myself in the butt too, lol. Welcome, Bharati! -

Tue, August 25, 2009 - 11:25 PMActually Michelle, you are so right...just 2 evenings ago, I was sitting back and thanking my mind that I am me...and that my mind is so mine, lols! I know this is sounding convoluted but yep, we do forget to pat ourselves simply because we are so busy doing that 'traveling up the road' bit...the nicest thing about us probably is the lack of bitterness...I stop back to appreciate that bit about me everytime I see a weary, cynical soul who simply doesnt want to try any more. Its sad to see people give up on 'niceness' as i put it, but yup, identify with the gym thingie...when I realised nuthing was wrking, i took up belly dancing classes, lols! Its freaking all my guy friends out ;) -

Re: INFJ-best tribe
Fri, September 11, 2009 - 9:57 AMJust wanted to say nice forum :) I'm glad there are other INFJs out there. I don't think I have met many in RL, but it's good to know there are other people out there that think like me.

OK let me know when you figure this b/c I ask myself the same question all the time. For INFJ's, I'm not sure there is an answer. -

I'm thinking the answer, for me right now, is that I will have learned when I just don't do it anymore. When will that be...hmmm...maybe when I realize enlightenment but until then I think it is when I just get so darn tired of giving my power away that I just stop doing it. At some point the pain of not doing become stronger then the discomfort of doing and when that happens I think things start to shift. Of course after that epiphany we pull out the plug on the drama fan yet it still keeps going until it slows down enough to stop...
Most likely a lot of us have already pulled the plug (especially if we are even entertaining the question - which shows awareness) so the fan IS slowwwwiiiinnnnggggg doooowwwwnnnn....we just want it to stop faster, lol.
