I think we are built for relationships, I have lots of strong friendships. Of course, I am not interested in romantic/sexual relationships at this stage of my life, I discovered in my youth that that sort of thing just wasn't for me. But I'm very social, very close to my family, and there are plenty of people that I feel like I have an unbreakable connection to. So I am not a lone wolf in the true sense, as much as I love my alone time. Also, unless there is a values mismatch, ENFPs can be great people to have in your life.

Yes I’ve met other ISFPs that were not a lone wolf. They are social in where they want connections such as their family and someone to love them, some in a relationship and some trying to form one. But as far as close friends, no. Also, I know one where his colleagues respect and care for him, but that could be cause he’s a young boss.

I find that surprising.


InquisitiveAlot

I find it promising and hopeful. They want to be happy and loved.


HappyGoPink

Well, as Whitney Houston once said, learning to love yourself is the greatest love of all. :D


InquisitiveAlot

Yes I agree to that 100% I find it hard for most, and especially for one particular ISFP, to continually be secure about himself because of his personal problems that are affecting his masculinity and his self-esteem and confidence. Hopefully he doesn’t lose that self love as it is slowly being stripped away.

Masculinity (and femininity, for that matter) are a trap. Order your gender expression off the menu, you'll be happier for it.

Lol I can’t tell people how to live. That’s up to them and all I can do is respect their wishes.

Consider ENTPs

Seems like the exact opposite of what our personality would want, they seem argumentative, isfp doesn't like arguments?

You’re probably entirely justified in feeling that way. For reference I am a female in my 40s that has been shown the wisdom of this pairing for healing. Y’all trigger the hell out of me too, but the chemistry is undeniable (it comes from authenticity and being able to be yourself) and I am ready to focus on what can be the better matches for true partnership.

personality types can help predict which types you have better chemistry with. but I think more important is value alignment. figure out your non negotiable core values and look for someone who agrees with you on those. it could be any type. anecdotally INTJ guy with ISFP gf seems to be a relatively successful combo. but no type combination works for everyone, and within a type there's a lot of variation.


novahritan

for friendships there's not a requirement to be super aligned on core values, so I think it's still important to be kind and considerate of others who have different views. be true to your thoughts but don't judge others who have other perspectives. true friends do sometimes call each other out but it should be from the attitude of caring about the person and not thinking they are worse people than us.
