The INFJ belongs to the rarest personality type according to the Myers-Briggs personality test. They make up only 1-3% of the total US population. You can imagine how unique this introvert personality type is and so are its likes and dislikes. If thereās an INFJ in your life, it becomes extremely important to know what NOT to do that might rub them the wrong way. Also, if you are an INFJ yourself then read the following and check if these things tick you off too.
1. Injustice and Cruelty
Nothing upsets an INFJ like injustice and cruelty. INFJs are empaths and sensitive beings. They cannot take it when they see someone suffering because of any wrongdoings. Although they avoid conflicts at all costs but when it comes to standing up for whatās fair and just, they donāt hesitate to voice their opinions. Thatās also the reason behind INFJs being called āThe Advocateā.
2. Authoritarianism
INFJs donāt like people who misuse their power, especially to mistreat people. Besides, they also hate being told what to do and how to do things. They canāt stand excessive criticisms, not to say they are not open to constructive criticism, but only when itās done respectfully and not as a projection of someoneās authority or ill will.
3. Imperfection
They strive for perfection and would do things to the tee. If it doesnāt turn out the way they want then they will spend endless hours meticulously just to get it right. It really annoys them to the core if thereās a lack of perfection in the things they do.
4. Conflicts
INFJs hate confrontations and conflicts. Youāll rarely see them getting involved in an argument just for the sake of it. Unwanted drama and tension are not their cup of tea. But donāt get them wrong, once they stand for something they believe in, theyāll fight till they prove you wrong. So better not mess with an INFJ.
5. No Privacy
This is not limited to just INFJs, other introverted personalities too would agree on this. Like their counterparts, The Advocates, too, love to have a āme timeā every now and then, during which they wouldnāt want any disturbance. They are extremely private when it comes to their personal space and wonāt shy away from expressing their anger when their privacy is violated. Try it and see for yourself.
6. Lack of Order
INFJs prefer everything to be in order. Messes irritate them. Being orderly gives them a sense of power and control. They tend to follow schedules and routines and any abrupt changes screws them up. Being organised helps them to serve their purpose in whatever they do otherwise they get confused and irritated easily.
7. Not Being Heard
INFJs are great listeners. People are automatically drawn to them to share their problems without the fear of getting judged. Although an INFJ would hardly ever open up to someone (unless youāre a really close one), they sometimes feel to be heard back and listened to. They too are humans after all and have great insights to share. They value themselves, so they feel hurt on being ignored or not being acknowledged.
8. Shallowness
They despise everything thatās shallow. Materialism and egotism rarely excite them. Rather they incline towards basic humanity and genuineness. INFJs prefer to be real and expect the same from others. Thereās more than just physicality for them in everything. Hence they tend to steer clear of selfish beings and donāt waste any time to disapprove of callous behaviours that are driven by superficiality.
9. Getting Manipulated
Manipulators are always in the black list of INFJs. They seriously loathe people who use others just for their own selfish reasons. An INFJ would never do that and demands the same from people. If they notice someone using them with harmful intentions or ulterior motives, they donāt hesitate to cut all ties with the manipulators. They are better off without them.
10. Insensitive and Loud Personalities
Being highly sensitive and empathetic, Itās easy for an INFJ to get upset by apathetic and insensitive behaviour. They would never entertain a person with malicious objectives. They are also not a big fan of loud personalities. An INFJ would avoid drama at all costs and would rather be among those who have a quiet and calm temperament like them.
These are the things that one should keep in mind if they donāt want to face the wrath of the rarest personality type. The INFJs believe in making the world a better and peaceful place to live for everyone and we all should contribute towards the same. Do you relate to the above things as an INFJ? A penny for your thoughts.

Sometimes, we get so engrossed in things that we tend to forget to pat ourselves in the back for the little achievements we make. Itās really important to enjoy those small successes which, maybe nobody knows but we, and therefore it gets lost somewhere receiving no applause as itās not of the magnitude that the society demands. Hence, itās only you who get to enjoy those tiny victories and you must, instead of just overlooking them. Be your own cheer-leader and applause for yourself.
Introverts are often misunderstood. Our inability to openly express leads to a lot of ambiguity about our character and behaviour. Though we are quite aware of our flaws (Iād rather call it uniqueness), we canāt help it. Sometimes we might come off as rude to our closed ones. But are we? Letās dig deeper.
1. Not receiving calls
If you have an introvert friend, you will always find yourself complaining that they never receive your calls and they cannot clarify but be guilty as charged. Well, thereās something about that phone screen indicating that someone is calling, that just freaks us out. No matter who is on the other end, we tend to not swipe right or up unless itās something urgent. We always prefer talking via text messages and emails as it gives us a sense of freedom to express freely as opposed to talking face to face or through the phone. This might give an impression to the other person that we are not interested or intentionally not picking up (the latter is quite true often) but thereās no hard feeling or personal grudge behind that. Itās just the way we are. Text and test us.

THIS! Please read. For me personally, Iām extremely self conscious with how I think I come off to people and this post gives amazing insight as to how some of these actions and traits are more common in introverts and not meant to be seen as rude. OP is right, this list isnāt meant to make excuses, we do have flaws as introverts, but due to us living in a society where these things might not be talked about as much, I think itās important to bring up in order to represent each other in the best light and speak up for ourselves. Communication is everything in our society and we need to put as much truth out there pertaining to introversion rather than perpetuating stigmatized misconceptions and generalizations made about us.

2. No-show at invited events
āYouāre coming tonight, right?ā āUmmā¦ Iām not sureā¦ probably not.ā Itās a universal fact that we introverts like a lot of alone time, more so after a social event or any outing. We prefer not to go out or attend events that may exhaust us. If we do, then we need a recharge by being on our own, before we set out to another party. Our choice to say no to social gatherings may come across as a refusal to spend time with known people and that may make them feel like we are not interested, which is not true at all. Even we like to celebrate and have fun but only occasionally. It comes at the cost of our social battery and so we are quite selective about it.
3. Seemingly unapproachable
Now, this is something which most of our friends felt or had an impression about us before they became our pals. An introvertās personality is very much different from a friendly extrovert. We are poor at social skills and donāt enjoy small talk, so we barely make that effort to break the ice or to initiate a conversation with unknown people. This reserved nature of us often leads people to think that we are apathetic and hence they find it difficult to approach us. This just solidifies the negative impression and we are left alone (much to our bliss). But this shouldnāt be taken as a sign that we donāt want friends at all. Youāll be surprised at how much we talk or open up once we become candid and cross that communication barrier. The fact is, we take time to properly assess your personality before lending a friendly hand as we are quite choosy of who we let in into our lives. Just give us some time to know you and we could be the best of friends, who knows?
4. Cold reception
We not only cut a sorry figure when it comes to talking but also when itās time to show emotions. We are quite cautious about what and how we emote. The reason could be attributed to our poor communication skills and not wanting to burden you with our emotional baggage. So we may come off as a cold-hearted person. On the contrary, we are very much empathetic and could feel deeply what one is going through. Itās just that we lack to express it, no matter how close to us you are. Doesnāt matter how elated we are, youāll rarely find us jumping with joy or dancing out like a freak. Even when we get a heavy heart, we barely let our grief get to you. Quite an irony for empaths, isnāt it?
5. Blocks you
We are sensitive beings and dwell on things that make our souls happy. We even tend to pick up the energies of those around us. So, when we feel that someone is quite toxic and is consistently disturbing our peace of mind, we wait no more to cut all ties, both online and offline. Yes! That could be quite unlikely of us but we just cannot thrive on negativity. We think itās better off that we be alone rather than getting involved with unwanted drama and weāre glad that social media sites have buttons like unfriend, unfollow and block. No regrets there at all for clicking them!
6. Moody
We are over-thinkers and thus prone to constant internal conversations, playing worst-case scenarios in our heads or simply day-dreaming. This leads to a lot of internal conflicts and dialogues that sometimes we may overlook other beings right in front of us. Besides, we are obsessive about intriguing stuff, be it a mystery novel, a thrilling movie, creating art or simply listening to a piece of soft music. During which we usually ignore everything that might suck us out of that exhilarating zone, so we may not respond to any kind of external stimuli such as texts, calls or even door-bells. This wrongly projects us as moody and non-indulging. We prefer to do one thing at a time rather focusing on too many things at once, considering we already have a plethora of thoughts going on 24Ć7.
We introverts come with our flaws but those are what make us unique. Although we are pretty much susceptible to prejudices and that normally donāt bother us but when it comes to maintaining relations with friends or loved ones, communication becomes the key. Itās better to speak out about our personality to lend a better understanding of us so that all the misinterpretations could be kept at bay. We aināt rude and shouldnāt let our well-wishers get that wrong idea.
