INFP Body Language Examples (Casual Cognition!)

[@moo5235]

as an infp, Im not sure if this happens to many others but sometimes when I'm am in a certain situation or place, I suddenly have this feeling as if I'm detached from this world, I even question if what I'm seeing is real even objects near me feels distant for some reason and I feel so far from my brain that I feel I can never come back to the previous normal state, even thinking about this is making me feel that way again. it feels weird and makes me think "wow I'm here now, I'm going through life" it's hard to explain but this is prob an example of me daydreaming and detaching from reality for a unexpected moment

[@glizziesaregross]

heyy I'm an INFP too and this happens to me sometimes 😂😀

[@embry7173]

Omg !! I literally know what you mean , same here 🥵😭

[@fatimajn5033]

omg I can't believe it Yesterday I was searching about it on youtube I thought that it is something about me I can't believe it that I am not lonelyyyy omg thank you thank you

this sucks when it happens in relation to humans you know.

Anyone else listening to someone and what they are saying then you start daydreaming in the middle of the conversation about what they said?

The eyes moving everywhere was totally true! Some people demand me when talking four eyes: "look at me!". I try to look at their eyes, but only lasted 3 secs 😂

[@lyloojune8134]

I hate when people demand that, because if I’m looking directly in your eyes I promise I have become distracted by them and have no idea what you’re saying.

[@nehadhurwey503]

That's happen to i am so bad at making eye contact.

[@sonicxis4ever]

I’m an Enfp and always got that feedback 😮 I always wondered why I couldn’t keep eye contact

[@theblindfolded_siren]

he's right as an infp that smile just comes out of nowhere and it feels like it's against their will

[@villerogladys1368]

Lol the eye thing is so true i struggle keeping eye contact but i know every little detailed gestures or facial expression the person im talking to likewise to the environment.

[@essidrovital6397]

I dont realise im smiling when someone converses with me. Its a real smile because every 1 on 1 talk feels like a connection is being formed

[@quirkypanda7257]

I do a big sigh/deep breath when I have to focus, but it's not anything bad. I do this mostly at work. It's just kind of resetting myself.

[@lyloojune8134]

Every dom Fe in the room: “Are you okay? What happened?”

[@Fuar11]

I've noticed that the darting Ne eyes only really occurs when being extroverted, meaning interacting with the outer world. Mainly in conversation with people.

[@NoOne-wt6om]

Yeah, it doesn't happen when I'm staring into space and daydreaming.

[@emmielyn4472]

My son is always asking me...how or why do you just sit there staring into space? Lol #mydaydreaminglife

[@shannonglaser2506]

this is definetely one of my favorite videos of you!! I confirmed a friend who i believed tobe infp to be one after all, since he does all these things pretty obvisouly! thanks :D Id like to see one for intp and intj next :)

gott nytt år. Erik. Tack för allt du gör! My father was from Norway, but I do like the Swedes also :-)

[@ErikThor]

Gott nytt år! I like Norwegians also!

[@shubs9532]

sometimes I feel like the only infp that makes too much eye contact 😔 I have to remind myself to look away. I want people to feel like I care about what they're saying and I don't feel like I'm doing it unless I'm making eye contact. Which tbh is partially why I like being alone bc when I'm talking to people I have to be doing that to feel like I'm putting 100%. I can't look at my phone or away for too long or I'm feeling like I'm ruining the connection. Even if people don't expect that of me.

[@seekerz9178]

Can INFPs slowly fall in love? Can they fall for someone, even tho they're not able to yet, because they still haven't forgotten/let go of someone else who abandoned them?

[@AWGZM]

yeh i did

[@PowerRedBullTypology]

Eric, is it a coincidence that you're analysing the body language of one of the only youtubers who is into typology body language?

[@ErikThor]

No! 😄

[@hopeinhumanity.]

Type tips (an infp) also analyzes typology body language. :)

[@carefulcarpenter]

Good choice of partners on this one!

[@hfortenberry]

You got their perceiving functions backwards. They are introverted sensors and extroverted intuitors. So I am not sure if your analysis was accurate and you just accidentally said it backwards or if you are analyzing it backwards as well. For example, is the use of lower eyelids really a feature of Ni or is it a feature of INFPs? Can't be both.

[@andytheindividual3862]

Aubrey yes I've noticed this too!

[@NoOne-wt6om]

I've read before that lower eyelids is high Ni but now I'm confused.

[@nodistractions5548]

I never notice these thing before haha but I definitely feel like I do them 😊

[@emilyminteer4767]

I think I am an ISFP but I'm trying to decide if I am INFP because I also do these things. Could you please explain how functions that are not in the type's stack like Ni and Se for example could still be demonstrated?

[@guillianacabrera5946]

What I understand is that sensing is most likely to be focused on the present and see things how the way they are, while intuition is most likely to be focused on future, like seeing posibilities or diving deep to see if it has any meanings or patterns

[@Wringfale]

Infp have polr Se and Isfp have auxiliary Se. isfp have pretty good extroverted sensory meanwhile infp extroverted sensing us almost non existent.

[@NoOne-wt6om]

@@guillianacabrera5946 I think extroverted functions are more present oriented so Ne is both present possibilities and mostly "near" future as it's more likely to feel comfortable when far future is uncertain but Ni is a timeless function which also extends to "far" future as it is more far-sighted.

[@satura25]

Infp has second Funktion - Extroverted Intuition, not Introverted!!!!

[@Userykp]

Yes extroverted intuition and introverted sensing ... He said the opposite

[@Pippinlakewood]

I think that more unhealthy infps are more likely to rely on introverted intuition rather than their Ne, which would explain why their more unhealthy

[@NoOne-wt6om]

@@Pippinlakewood Going into first shadow function Ni when stressed, I do that, too. It can be delusional or useful or hopeless, it depends on situation.

[@NoOne-wt6om]

@@Userykp I wonder what would happen if an INFP is "forced" to use Se a lot daily. Will they be a really unhealthy individual or can an INFP healthily "learn" to mimick Se?

[@sophiebrandy1820]

@@NoOne-wt6om That´s an interesting question. I would also like to know the answer because I think I have to use a lot of Se for my job and I feel like it`s slowly killing me ...

[@UrbanArtCentral]

Erik, I'm confused why did u keep mentioning Ni and Se, when the subject has Ne and Si in their conscious stack?

[@mostfrozenburrito]

I’m hardly ever 100% in reality. Last week I had a moment where I felt like I was finally back in the real world taking in my surroundings as I was driving to work. It doesn’t happen too often anymore. Gotta savor those lucid moments. And in conversation it’s hard to keep on track because so many dots are trying to connect but you’re just trying to find one that’ll make sense in the end. I’m always in my head. It’s very intriguing up there

Wait I’m confused because INFPs don’t have Ni but Ne. Maybe I’m missing something though. Very interesting video by the way! INFP here :)

[@talonthorn]

No, no, no, no. An INFP smile starts at her mouth and spreads across her face. Even her eyes smile! However, it doesn't stop there. When an INFP smiles, it is a whole-body smile. She doesn't just smile with her lower face. Every muscle in her body is alive with that smile. An INFP's eyes do jump around when deep in thought. Hosever, an INFP who is intensely talking to you about something that greatly concerns her but is at the top of her list, will focus almost continually on your eyes, almost as a stare and yet it doesn't feel like a stare. Fi is rarely seen at all, unless the INFP is comfortable enough to share emotions--which are very personal to the INFP! However, there is still a glow of emotional strength about the INFP.

It is really interesting, unfortunately you are wrong about the functions of INFP. No Ni there.. It is FiNeSiTe. But you are explaining a nonexistent type FiNiSeTe. This makes me think you don't really know what you are talking about.. :D

[@Fuar11]

[@Userykp]

Ya right

[@NoOne-wt6om]

@@Fuar11 So in his method are INFPs NiSe?

[@keynekitten7090]

Did you watch the entire video? At just over 8 minutes he explains why he used Ni in place of Ne.

[@fozocsaba4]

I watched it, and he is explaining how Ne works as the secondary function in the INFP's stack. Looking at the overall INFP behaviour, clearly it will be different than ENFP's Ne, which is a dominant function there. One needs to consider all 4 functions to see how the type works. That still doesn't mean INPF's have Ni.
