around them, INFJs come with a sense of humor

quite understands or appreciates the INFJ’s
unexpected sense of humor.. So, in today’s
video, we’re going to unravel the 9 reasons

Alright, jumping right into it starting with..
Number one – Introverted Thinking function
One of the main contributing factors to the INFJs’
self-deprecating humor comes from their tertiary
function, introverted thinking. While this
function’s main job is to actually allow the
INFJ to connect the dots of information they
collect through their extraverted feeling,
it can also push the INFJ to get wrapped up
in their own heads. Constantly recalling past
unfortunate experiences is more likely to be a
trait of a less mature INFJ, but nevertheless,
they end up turning those unfavorable feelings
self-deprecating jokes that poke fun at and take
the strength away from those negative feelings.
It might seem morbid and unsettling to some
makes perfect sense and it doesn’t feel weird
at all. INFPs, for example, handle dark humor
pretty well and usually would understand where
INFJs come from when making said jokes. So,
if you ever see someone making a self-deprecating
joke and laughing at it, chances are they’re just
an INFJ having some harmless fun.. meaning
it’s not necessarily a secret cry for help.
Number two – Extraverted Feeling function
With extraverted feeling as the INFJs secondary
function, it’s understandable that they’re
naturally attuned with the people around them.
They have a deep sense of the energies, moods
and feelings of those around them - naturally
absorbing them and even feeling them more
than they do their own feelings and emotions.
And so, because they’re so wrapped up in the
feelings of others, they need to have a way to
indirectly call people out on their negative
emotions when the time comes. For example,
and moody, rather than lovingly asking them
what they can do to make them feel better,
INFJs may jokingly ask them something like
“who pooped in your cheerios this morning?” Or
they may ask their male partner something like
so by adding a little humour to the moodiness of
a situation, they can usually work their way to
getting people to crack a smile, breaking
INFJs have a very interesting nature, even
contradictory at times. That’s what makes them
so intriguing and different from so many of the
other personality types. And more often than not,
they have a hard time finding people who can
truly understand them and their intricate way
it’s mostly difficult for people to accept that
INFJs just don’t take themselves, or the world,
too seriously. They have an ability to find
a lot of sensitive subjects that others might
feel heavy personal attachments to, very casual
and not a big deal. That’s why in most cases,
their preferred kind of humor is considered
unfiltered and too dark to some other personality
types. This is also why they are very picky about
whom they share their sensitive side and can joke
around freely with.. Usually testing the waters
before exposing their shocking playful side.
Number four – INFJs are big intuitive thinkers
with introverted intuition as their main driving
force. So, it’s fair to say there’s a lot going
on inside the minds of the INFJ type at all times.
From intuitive, subconscious thinking around the
clock - to selfless, thoughtful compassion
for others. It never really stops for INFJs,
and the more stimulated their environment
is, the more information processing they do.
As a result, INFJs are always thinking in layers
and digging deep and far into things. They
see what a lot of people miss, and they find
pleasure in that. So when it comes to humor,
they manage to see past the initial disturbing
structure and wording of their jokes and find them
humorous and harmless. This isn’t perceived by
everyone around them, so it’s not rare to witness
to save themselves the pain, if they don’t
sense a decent level of introspection, they’ll
just keep their intuitive humor to themselves.
Number five – INFJs can be quite the nitpickers
tend to avoid INFJs is because they can be
tough-to-handle perfectionists. They can easily
point out things you’re doing incorrectly
and even ask you to do them the right way. This
attribute of theirs comes into play when they
want to drop a joke, but it can surely backfire.
INFJs can quickly spot the inconsistency and
lack of logic in what others say and do. And
if someone’s telling a story or talking about
a certain topic, they tend to naturally look
for that inconsistency in their storytelling
or the details of their topic. Details that no one
else would ever notice or necessarily care about.
And with these involuntary findings, they piece
together the irony in the things that people say
in order to make a joke about it accordingly.
Luckily, with their deep understanding of how
words can be interpreted, they always try to spare
the feelings of others, so they won’t necessarily
call people out for these inconsistencies.
chuckling to themselves when they witness a lack
of common sense in some of their fellow humans.
Number six – INFJs experience a lot of guilt
By nature, INFJs love to help and please the
people around them. They go above and beyond
to make people happy – whether it’s a romantic
partner or someone they met down the street. INFJs
don’t hold back in that aspect and hold themselves
accountable if they fail to fix what’s broken.
And so, the INFJ is able to use their unique
sense of humor as a way for them to express those
emotions without actually having to be vulnerable.
For example, if a lady asked for help crossing
the street but the INFJ’s hands were full, leading
them to apologetically decline, the INFJ may crack
a joke to their partner later that evening saying
“I bet that poor old lady is still standing
their waiting for someone to help her cross..”
recall that memory from earlier that day, the
INFJ probably ruminates about it their whole way
home. And so, these types of jokes are a way for
the INFJ to self-soothe these feelings of guilt
that creep up once the situation is long over.
Number seven – INFJs want to slam the door
INFJs are famous for their “slam the door”
trait. They won’t hesitate or think twice
if it comes down to it. They may start by ghosting
and ignoring that person then slowly shutting them
off – for good. They’d only engage with said
person if it’s absolutely necessary, but they
would still give them the same kind of treatment
- that they don’t like them much anymore.
accomplish that is to push that person away,
so they don’t need to deal with them. And to
do that, they often use undesirable and crude
humor to scare that person away. Dark and morbid
humor does a good job at killing the conversation
that’s what INFJs go for. Deep down, they hope
this defense tactic works and spares them from
conflict and hurting people’s feelings.. And if
they’re feeling ruthless enough, it usually does.
Number eight – INFJs enjoy making people laugh
INFJs rarely focus on conversations that don’t
grab their attention. They don’t do well with
small talk, and you could easily lose them if
you don’t have anything interesting to say.
However, what does get their attention is:
out-of-the-ordinary, intriguing taboo subjects
That’s why INFJs are naturally drawn to use
dark humor. They perceive this type of humor
as the best way to keep things interesting
and make people laugh. To them, it’s just an
appropriate way to get the conversation going in
a more controversial way, which is the only time
they can ever get truly invested in it. However,
they’re aware that their jokes might get them
wary looks, so most INFJs become accustomed
to know when and where to drop a dark one.
It shows their compassionate side as they strive
to spread joy by laughing at the tragedy of life.
Number nine – INFJ use the process of selection
Being the introverted intellectuals they are,
INFJs have a less-than-easy time making friends.
They’re not satisfied with shallow friendships
real, meaningful connections that they can
cultivate into something sustainable. That’s why
whenever they do find someone they click with,
in their own environment so when they meet
that one special person, they won’t let go.
And they usually look for someone who can keep
up with their wit and wordplay. And to do that,
INFJs let their sarcastic, dark side loose
and test the waters. If they find someone
who understands what they mean and relates to
them, they open up more to this person and look
forward to hanging around them. But, if INFJ
are met with judgmental eyes, they become a
lot more cautious with how they act around people.
