- INFJs are introverted, private, strictly reserved people who do not frequent busy social platforms. They feel better and safer writing about their feelings anonymously rather than talking about themselves. They also prefer anonymity, emotional aloofness and solitude.
All this is possible only online. - They are grossly misunderstood, misjudged. They don’t easily find their tribe.
Online is just one place that can afford this luxury to them. - INFJs constitute about 1–2 %. But 1–2% of the world’s population (8.025 billion) is still 80.25 million to 160.5 million INFJs worldwide. That doesn’t sound like less in these numbers. How many INFJs do we know? Definitely, nowhere close to even one thousand…
- Since INFJs are rare, many non-INFJs may even like to pretend they are one, may have been misdiagnosed as being one, or may just like to believe they are one when they aren’t.
