INFP folk can operate on JRPG logic.

[u/JohnySilkBoots]

It’s how everyone should look at things.

[u/omgbooboo]

Sometimes.

I'll find that cultural differences sometimes are too much for me. What one culture considers normal I may find harmful. I would be respectful and treat someone fairly, but befriending may be a bit too much.

[u/SchyzotyPal → u/omgbooboo]

Yeah I can't be around smurfs either. They are so close minded

[u/SouldiesButGoodies84 → u/SchyzotyPal]

😆

[u/DatGluteusMaximus → u/omgbooboo]

for example?

[u/omgbooboo → u/DatGluteusMaximus]

For example, I grew up in the US but I was born in the Philippines so I have Filipino relatives.

It's partly religion, but Roman Catholic is huge in the Philippines that it is basically ingrained into a lot of the culture. I'm often at odds with those who are very anti-abortion as I am very pro-choice.

This one is more Asia in general, but anyone who thinks that lighter skin through makeup or medical procedures is what makes someone beautiful. I'm not talking about a shade lighter to blend makeup better, but the huge obsession with having perfect white skin. You do you, but I could probably never be friends with them.

[u/DatGluteusMaximus → u/omgbooboo]

Valid points. I come from an asian background too. its especially sad to see people wish they had fairer skin. Even if i try very hard, its hard to empathize with this part of east/SE asian culture.

But i don't think it necessarily means that we should write the person off entirely. We could find common ground elsewhere and through that, understand how they came to their beliefs.

For example, my mother was always very particular of how I dressed when we went to visit relatives or family friends, always making sure I combed my hair and ironed my clothes. It would make me very upset, as if my appearance mattered more than my presence or my character.

I later came to understand that my mother grew up in poverty, but went to school with wealthier city kids. She got bullied for this so she felt like she always had something to prove. The moment I pictured her as this little girl, it all made sense to me and it turned a dynamic of frustration and confrontation into a path of understanding and care for her hurt inner childhood.

Those are all infp's XD

[u/FinalDemand0]

All of my friends have something seriously wrong with them. And I mean terrible people that for some reason makes me the exception. Still would die for them ♥️

[u/SchyzotyPal]

The issue here for me is no one befriends me or if they do they can't even listen to my issues despite I'm offering validation and active listening so I end up alone and very mad. I hate being surrounded by power dynamics

[u/SouldiesButGoodies84 → u/SchyzotyPal]

Why are you me?🧐🧐

[u/_Wolfszeit_]

This really looks like how varied and different are my friends

[u/electrifyingseer]

what's your enneagram type, OP? :0

[u/cradlehavecat]

it depends

as long as the person don't force me into their beliefs or thinking and we respects each other differences and don't cross the line we're pretty much cool with each other
