The Real Reasons The ‘Faithful’ Infj Would Cheat (Infj Infidelity) explores key ideas related to psychology, presented clearly and practically.



combined with their genuine loyalty means

that when they’re with someone exclusively,

it’s nearly impossible for them to even consider

the idea of falling for someone else.. And yet,

Welcome or welcome back PSYCH-Os! Before we get

Alright, let’s get right into it, starting with..

Number 1: They were cheated on by that partner

personality type isn’t always one to seek

loved ones. For the most part, they usually

and can rationalize what drove them to do what

they’ve done. However, despite putting others’

destinies in karma’s hands, it’s not to say that

the INFJ doesn’t get hurt in the process. In fact,

it can take a major toll on this personality

type. And while overtime they may just be able

it left on their perception of that person. They

will withdraw, and even when they eventually let

that person back in fully, the connection is

never the same as it once was. Unfortunately,

this is where the INFJ can grow weak in terms

of the possibility of experiencing their own

form of infidelity. This forever imprint makes it

so that if the opportunity should present itself,

the INFJ may not be as disinterested as they

normally are. Which brings us to our next point..

able to walk away from a major mistake such as

being unfaithful without much consideration,

the INFJ’s guilty conscience will eat them

whether it be emotionally or physically, would

feel too unbearable to even consider. Yet,

sometimes the analytical INFJ mind takes over,

and can even convince them they deserve to be

wanted in the way they long for. While they

would never go and search for the opportunity,

it’s when the opportunity presents itself that

the INFJ’s rationalizing mind begins working

in overdrive. This is when all the things the

INFJ once forgave their partner for now become

questionable, including all the areas they lack

giving the INFJ what they think they deserve. They

begin to convince themselves that it’s possible

their partner isn’t “the one”, and may even begin

emotionally distancing themselves due to this

simple conclusion. It can be a scary place for

the INFJ empath who simultaneously calculates

just how much it would hurt their partner.

Speaking of rationalization in terms of all

the ways their partner falls short within the

connection, there’s something about the INFJ

feeling misunderstood that can drive them to

seek that understanding. Realistically, it’s

a lifelong battle for the peculiar INFJ to

find people who truly get them. With a mix of

complexities and the patience required for the

INFJ to reveal their true selves, it takes a

very specific type of person and circumstance

for this type to genuinely feel recognized

and appreciated for who they are. In fact,

with this life-long challenge being so apparent

for the INFJ and their ability to connect with

others, sometimes they can end up putting aside

the requirement to feel understood in order to

move deeper into a romantic connection with

someone. With hopes that this understanding

will come about eventually, the INFJ essentially

settles for something that doesn’t resonate with

them fully. In these instances, should someone

come along with the ability to resonate with the

themselves into a hole they can’t get out of.

Speaking of self-sabotage, the conflict-avoidant

habits of the INFJ tend to be the underlying

common-denominator in most of their romantic

and platonic challenges. Through their extreme

sort of discord within their connections,

INFJs are known to put off setting the necessary

boundaries that are meant to keep certain toxic

people away from accessing their energy. And

while this tactic makes the relationship seem

seamless and effortless in the beginning stages,

the INFJ ends up carrying an unbearable weight on

their shoulders once the connection becomes

this personality type can take the steps to

remove themselves from a toxic person’s energy,

and move onto someone more fitting. Yet, in

the worst case scenario, their toxic partner

makes leaving nearly impossible. Whether it’s

through some form of emotional manipulation,

physical threats of harm, gaslighting, pleading

or false convincing, when the INFJ feels trapped,

foot in the door. Despite it not being the

most effective or morally right strategy,

An emotionally unfulfilled INFJ is an unhealthy

INFJ. And an unhealthy INFJ is known to do things

INFJs require the necessary communication,

quality time and levels of physical intimacy for

the romantic connection to make it. While some

people can turn a blind eye to some of these

emotionally fulfilling components with their

partner, INFJs hold high-expectations of what a

romantic connection should look and feel like.

Despite trying their best to hold out for a

specific partner to meet these expectations,

or trying to rekindle the love they once had,

once an INFJ becomes increasingly emotionally

disconnected, they become more vulnerable

to external emotional offerings. In fact,

type of cheating amongst INFJs due to the

simple fact that this is the type of love they

crave amongst all else. Which brings us to..

They say love and stupidity are two sides of

the same coin. For the INFJ, who’s experienced

personal emotional infidelity, that’s certainly

the case. Like we’ve mentioned previously,

despite their introversion, every INFJ longs

for an emotional bond that allows them to be

their most authentic selves. And so when this

personality type finds someone they actually enjoy

spending time with, it can be difficult for them

to not want to grow the connection into something

further. While it’s not always a particularly

romantic destination they initially have in mind,

on the rare occasion they can end up finding

themselves in a deeper bond than they expected.

when this worthy individual has different

intentions. When the INFJ becomes vulnerable

with someone else while in a relationship,

it can be difficult for them to decipher how

far is too far. This confusion can make it

challenging to know when or if they’ve crossed

the line from friendship to emotional infidelity,

and just how the other person is perceiving

In the end, it’s extremely rare for the INFJ

to find themselves in these types of sticky

situations. When the INFJ is in the right mind,

without the influence of past traumas, toxic

partners, and delusional rationalizations, even

the simple thought of cheating is enough to scare

the INFJ back to reality. In fact, while some may

not consider it infidelity in technical terms,

the INFJ’s imaginative ideas can be enough to

cause their guilty conscience to shame them into

serious discomfort. Self-critical by nature,

the INFJ can begin questioning themselves and

their faithfulness within their connection

imaginative thoughts. It’s within this guilt that

the INFJ can actually end up shutting down within

their connection temporarily to try and understand

themselves and what they’re subconsciously missing

that’s leading them to these types of thoughts.

For the less balanced INFJ, these thoughts do

have the potential to lead to something more,

especially if they’re caught in an introverted

thinking, intuitive loop that hazes their

judgements and drives them to be rather impulsive.
