What are the differences between INFJ-T and INFJ A?

INFJ-A types have an internal locus of control (assertive).

INFJ-A are much “cooler” in the way they carry themselves, they own a solid personal boundary where everyday stresses bounces off their shield and rarely gets thru. INFJ-A types typically have more intimate relationships (usually with ENTPs, ENFPs, and INTPs) because they are “assertive” at getting their needs met.

INFJ-T have thinned skin, like having a lot of holes in their personal boundaries where stress can easily get thru and they trigger easily (hence the word “turbulent”). That thinned skin makes them get overwhelmed easily and are HSP, that they often dump their stresses and anxieties unto other people to feel good about themselves, they don’t own those stresses anymore because they found a scapegoat.

Jenny from Perth writes – my partner is the life of the party, women and men adore him. But at home, he gets angry at us for the silliest reasons and never nice words me or our kids, always putting us down. Should I stay or leave him?

Those two types are worlds apart, and we can’t relate to each other.

Immature boundaries vs. mature boundaries.
