I attended a church for a while where the leaders were manipulative and controlling. That really bothered me. The rigidity of conformity to what was perceived as God, ( Trump, the Republican Party, the weird demands of loyalty, and Right Wing Nationalism, conflating the political with faith,) all became unbearable. I spoke up in a small prayer group about some of my concerns and was immediately identified as " The Enemy," because I refused to conform to their weird agenda. I left and shook the dust off of my feet I worked at a school with learning disabled kids. My first boss was a rigid rule keeper who allowed no creativity in interaction with the kids. I can't operate that way. I lasted one year in her room. I was switched to another teacher's room who appreciated my initiative and creative approach in helping the students succeed ; we worked happily together for 11 years. My sisters never got me. One was a narcissistic social climber, always the center of attention, my other sister a rule keeper who thrived on order, and neither understood my need for solitude, my disinterest in being popular, or my flying by the seat of my pants approach to life. I did not make sense to either of them. As a child, I was a dreamer, loved fairy tales, was happy reading a book or watching cloud formations. I like to think about things. I was bullied, bossed around, mistreated. I finally reached the the place where I simply did not care. I detested bullies, people who were indifferent to another's pain, or who made fun of those who were different. I was happy with one friend. I am now 74 years of age. I love to write stories for my grandkids. I still gaze at clouds, read books, think deeply about things, walk daily and have conversational prayer to God while enjoying the trees, birds, puppy dogs, and vastness of the sky. Today I found a bed of roses while out walking. I had to lean over each bloom and inhale its fragrance. Solitary but happy. Marching to a different drum no longer a conundrum. I am finally comfortable in my own skin. Thanks for your insightful podcasts. I am sure they help others find peace being true to themselves and stop caring if people around them don't get them. God bless.

I was bullied ONCE, in second grade. I'm was a tiny little girl, he was a big chubby ass-tick, and thought he was so cool picking on little girls. I watched him at the beginning of the school year bully so many little kids, who were even younger that him, and all were smaller. After the Christmas vacation, about two weeks into January, it apparently was my turn. School let out for the day, and we who lived around the corner from school were all walking through the field to the gate to our street. Just as I started going through the gate somebody grabbed my shoulder and said, "fifteen cents to go through the gate!" I turned to see who it was touching me and it was bully boy. I said "what did you just tell me?" He says, "fifteen cents for YOU to go through the gate, if you don't pay you can't use the gate." I looked at him and said, "No I'm not paying fifteen cents to use the gate. You're not the boss of this gate so no." He shoved me and I fell. He didn't know who he was trying to bully, I got up and jumped up in the air, turning around as I did. When I faced him in a split second of jumping I punched my fist out and clocked him right in the snoot. He grabbed his face and started yelling, then crying when he saw his nose was bleeding. I told him to hurry home so his mommy could kiss his boo-boo. He ran and was crying i was in big trouble. I got home and told my mom about it and she just looked at me and said, "okay I guess we better plan on his mom coming. And she did with the ass tick in tow. She demanded I be punished for punching her baby. My mom demanded her baby be punished for bullying little girls and other kids at school. She told my mom, "oh he's just playing with them!" Mom said, "Well she was just playing with him too then, maybe he should learn to take what he dishes out?" Then mom slammed the door in her face. The next day he comes up to me with a baggie and two donuts in it. He told me he wanted to be friends and he wanted to share his donuts with me. We shared the donuts. We grew up together, he turned into an incredibly handsome guy, married his high school sweetheart, my best friend, and he became an corporate attorney. I've never been bullied since then, not once. Maybe it's the look on my face when someone seems like their going to try? I know before they even start what they're going to do, and my face must portray the "I don't think so cookie" look, because it stops in it's tracks. I don't play around like that. I call bullies out if I see one bullying somebody. I dislike them and I'm not afraid of them, so I just dig my heels in and dare them to do it.

I was bullied so much in school. It's rare for me to comment on things, but I need to vent... People thought I was fake because there were times where I would help people and defend them, and when I was asked why I did it and said it was because I wanted to, I was told that there's no way anyone's that nice. It may have been the first time I felt both flattered and offended at once, lol. But I even defended the bullies too once or twice, just for them to insult me (there were wild dogs that got in school, and me and two other guys were dealing with them while the bullies were doing nothing but maybe shouting stuff at me, like how I was trying to look cool...). They always refused to accept whatever answer I gave. I realized later it was because they were projecting themselves onto me. Because I was doing things they would never do for other people, they couldn't understand why anyone else would do it. They ganged up on me so many times and only when it was too late did they decide to apologize (not by themselves, but as a group. They barely did anything alone). A girl and a guy told me they were jealous of me... but the girl made the rest of them believe her lies about me being fake and slandered my name. Even after apologizing, in college, she would still insult me at times. Some people really don't know how to leave others alone.

I can simplify all of this for you. The INFJ personality type has very strong character and self confidence that intimidates people who don’t have those qualities. Simply put, if you have confidence in who you are, a person who does not have that confidence and hides behind popularity, materialism, and other superficial aspects of life, the INFJ’s presence by itself will highlight for them what they are lacking and what they are scared everyone will see. It, in their mind is like a Beaty queen standing next to a troll. You may sense their inadequacies and feel compassion for them, or distain for their front, but to them it is extremely loud and obvious and they need to destroy you and your character in the eyes of everyone around you in order to maintain their standing in everyone’s eyes. Believe it or not, the general population tends to respond to this type of expression about a person’s character over any kind of in-depth look at the person. The general population tend to be sheep. It is quite literally a fight between good and evil. Wholesome and perversion, and for some crazy reason, people will tend to believe the lie: more now then ever before. So if your feeling alone and depressed because people tend to believe lies, then yeah, your a bit of light in a world running to the darkness. Good luck and God bless you.

The Dwarfs are for the Dwarfs.” “You see,” said Aslan. “They will not let us help them. They have chosen cunning instead of belief. Their prison is only in their own minds, yet they are in that prison; and so afraid of being taken in that they cannot be taken out.”

I remember that! Yes that is great! Lewis knew a thing or two about hierarchies and how empty they ultimately were. In "That Hideous Strength" I believe he illustrated a character always trying to get deeper into the inner circle of a group. I believe he compared it to peeling an onion. A person gets deeper into the onion, layer by layer and feels the excitement of finally getting to the core and then finds that there is no core. In both instances he is describing the type of social strivers that Wenzes was referring to as a group that hate INFJs. We seem to be able to see that there is no point in spending all our energy on chasing that next status level, But this infuriates those that do spend all their energy on that pursuit.

Yes, there a few attitudes or personalities that commit circular reasoning in confirming their bias. Cynicism is one, chronic hyper skepticism is another. Often they are more akin to a phobia than merely an attitude though. Like a phobia of spiders, or flying/falling, the fear that protects them also traps them from finding out that their phobia prevents them from discovering the actual ambiguity of the things they fear. A fear of being wrong or making a mistake can paralyze a person and keep them from taking the risks necessary to learn through trial and error.

People don't like their thoughts challenged, an INFJ's existence is challenging the own thought, self improvement, being better, empathy & kindness. People want their bad behaviours being rewarded. Even when coming from empathy, telling the person "I am not judging you because I use to do that too before I knew better & all it took was for someone to show me the truth, so that's what I'd like to do, give you that & let you make an informed decision" (not for all cases but most can relate to a once bad behaviour we have fixed/improved/did not want to partake in/saw the damage it was doing, etc., everything required to make the changes to be better) they don't care, they want to hear GOOD things about their bad behaviours & will not hesitate to use fallacies or lies to make you feel lesser. They find the wrong people to look for confirmation bias of their horrible behaviours & when it's not given by the INFJ, it becomes THEIR fault & twisted onto them, not the person doing the harmful behaviour. This isn't just INFJ's too. This is the same for straight up Neurodivergent folks (Not Neurotypical, can be born that way or things develop like PTSD/Trauma/etc.,), especially Autistics; not all but many that have a thing called Double Empathy & are mostly feeling the world around them more than their own feelings (can lead to Alexithymia) & can get swept up in what seems like a happy moment, but it's at their expense but don't realize it yet because everyone else is feeling good, so they feel good, then later when they go come, everything comes to realization of the self feelings/situation/etc., (for myself I have meltdowns, not all of us do but it's part of it. Sometimes I personally end up in non-verbal states to stop the meltdown, but it means I cannot talk until my body/mind/mental state is ready), yet still very in touch with everything. I'd even argue INFJ's are 99-100% Neurodivergent as I have not yet met/seen/heard from/of a neurotypical INFJ. When we want time to ourselves, we're seen as selfish, yet they cannot see how much we're absorbing of the world, it's so much we have to seek solitude (&/or body doubling for some) to recharge ourselves. Additionally understanding people as a standard are taught to deny critical thinking, schools also do it so people don't break status quo/fight against injustices & INFJ's are immune to being told "hey don't think about that just do what I say" so we look disobedient as children yet we are aware the thing we are being asked to do is unfair, too much, unreasonable, needs adjustment to be able to do, & when raised by the wrong guardians, like Narcissists, everything is screaming & volatile. I would additionally argue INFJ's are most likely out of ALL people to go Vegan because they are willing to look at the propaganda/at what actually happens/facts/against all unnecessary suffering which is all animal agriculture/looking at the whole picture instead of taste pleasure. We don't have the "I could NEVER" for own feelings, we want to know how we can improve the lives we directly effect over ourselves. Compassion & understanding guide us. 💙💙💙💚💚💚💙💙💙💚💚💚💙💙💙💚💚💚💙💙💙💚💚💚 Be proud of your compassion, others feel you are a threat because you are so kind, they see you as better than them even if you do not have that thought for even a moment.

Bullies are shallow people with probably very little talent. People who 'play games' and are social climbing will eventually fall back down to where they started. Rules to be followed create a stable environment but others 'use' Rules to their own advantage. The rules of society mean that many will take absolutely no risks and never do anything 'new'. The 'familiar' at one time was something totally 'new'. The early automobiles were rejected by many because a horseless 'carriage' was a threat to existing 'norms' of travelling about. You should be your own person. Self centered people are a drain on you. They need to be carefully avoided as they will add absolutely nothing to your life. No matter how they 'change' their behaviour, keep yourself humble and 'true' to yourself. Thank you for this video.

This helps me to understand a friendship that suddenly ended and was never reconciled. I blamed myself for the downfall, (it was over my essential oils I wore), apologized, changed how and wat oils I wore (by the time, even now, I leave the house, the oils have been washed off), and she was hateful and rude to me, even yelled at me once. I have struggled with guilt for a year over this. Realizing it may be my personality she disliked makes sense and lines up with everything mutual friends have said, that this isn't my fault. She has passed away, so the pain is healing. As an INFJ, I am still very conscientious of how I wear my oils.

Absolutely everything you brought up so concisely hits home to me. Thank you I somehowe knew I was alright inside I was just me. I now look back and see I never placed myself in a 'group'. I never just conformed. The thought of it makes me cringe. I can fit in no mater what I do... like being a chameleon, yet I long for solitude and inner silence to recharge when I am alone. My one earliest learned experience was when I was lured by whom I thought were my only two 'friends' who betrayed me, were jealous of me because all of the Popular guys wanted me. I actually gave them no thought.. but when the fight happened.. I stopped midway .. I was 16. and walked away. I knew if I kept on there would have been someone in hospital. My feelings were hurt more than anything. I can still hear them calling to me to come back and fight. I guess that was the first time in my life I truely Slamed a Door. I still remember that till this day. A lesson about myself I will never forget. I just did it to my Narcissistic partner of 7 yrs. Gave him everything I could. Untill the violence was too much. This time the Door Slam was a jail cell for 20 years. I have walked away with a new life of freedom and no boundaries...Not afraid of the unknown. Open to a new beginning no matter what occurs. . just my own being that I have back again. To any of you who read this.. I wish you Love. Believe in You.

I had one bully physically attack me for no reason. I didn't even know her, never noticed her, until she physically attacked me on the playground, at PE, in 6th grade. I'd never been in a physical fight before, but I responded in kind. She ended up on her back with me on top of her 😂. She was 3 years older than me, taller and bigger than me. Needless to say, I won that kid-fight. The Physical Education teacher saw what happened and I didn't get in trouble for defending myself. I always defended other kids who were bullied.

Wow this is so spot on! It took me a lifetime to understand that I am different and it is OK. I probably drove everyone crazy around me for years but I just accepted that most people don't like me and I walked my own path mostly alone and I was cool with that because fake /cruel people make me nuts. The workplace was difficult unless I was in charge. I saw things that others didn't and when I managed my store I went un- corporate and created a very efficient system and a very awesome team. It was not appreciated by upper management but my team loved it and when they moved on they wrote me letters saying that I was fair and strong and organized and treated everyone the way they deserved for good or bad. I still have contact with a couple of people who told me they loved the way I thought outside the box. In my personal life I was a disaster until I met a male version of me and we had18 fun years until he passed away 2 years ago.Good times!

I’m retired. I just found out that I’m an INFJ-A. I’m a 5’6” Asian. Never been bullied. Never was good in team sports, but had Judo lessons when I was 11 yrs old. Karate when I was 14. Earned a black belt a few years later. No problems in the military, or afterwards in a male dominated tech occupation. Another black belt in my late 50s. I’ve been an instructor for almost 20 years. I’m polite to everyone, but 2 people have told my adult kids that I look scary 🤷🏻♂️ So my advice, learn to be confident in your abilities, whether in business or the arts. Your energy projects as a bubble around you. Bullies can sense that, they will start to avoid you. Posture should be straight, head held high. Walk smoothly, with confidence. Take a few boxing lessons or Muay Thai for beginners.

This video summed up just about every reason why I disliked dorm life in college. By the times I was a freshman, I didn't have much trouble with bullies anymore although I had plenty of that when I was younger. But they other four were there in grand profusion. The most common ones in my life were a combination of #3 and #5. These were the self-centered ones committed to rules, and they behaved like their rules were the only ones. I never ceased to have challenges with that type. In fact, I even had one roommate challenge my level of spirituality because I didn't follow her set of standards. Those were the years that made me commit to learning how to take care of myself verbally. That's a whole story in itself, but as I learned rational verbal self defense along with better self love, it helped a lot.
