INFJs are thought to be the rarest personality type, which is why they can be perceived as
weird. Being unique might make it difficult to connect with others because most people
do not operate or view the world in the same way. Growing up can be challenging for the
INFJ, especially when they see themselves as odd.
INFJs are the least likely to be who they appear to be.
While some people believe they have an INFJ all figured out, there is undoubtedly much
more beneath the surface that has yet to be discovered.

Number 9 on today’s list is that They plan for everything.
Let's just say that if you take an INFJ out to a new restaurant for dinner, don't be surprised
if they already know what they want, where it is, how to get there, and even where they
want to sit. This is due to the fact that INFJs plan for
everything, with social gatherings being one of their primary focuses.
While most INFJs play it cool, such as scanning the menu to avoid looking like a total lunatic,
they have most likely planned this all ahead of time.
Aside from pre-planning an outfit the day before, an INFJ may inquire about how busy,
loud, or crowded the restaurant would be in order to mentally prepare for the environment.
This is one of the key reasons why unexpected and abrupt changes in plans can easily trigger
INFJ anxiety since they require time to properly understand what they should expect.
Number 8 weird habit of INFJs is They can see 2 sides in everyone
Most INFJs try to see the best in everyone, and while this might be challenging in some
situations, the INFJ believes that every personality has two sides.
Yin and yang, hot and cold, highs and lows, whatever you want to call it, the inquisitive
INFJ enjoy analyzing the behaviors of others, and it soon becomes clear that not everyone
is as shady, or angelic, as they appear. While this allows INFJs to recognize the good
in others, it also causes them to be critical of seemingly nice people until they get to
know them on the inside and out. They understand that everyone makes mistakes,
but they also understand the distinction between a mistake and a behavior.
This is why, above all, INFJs want people who are genuine and sincere in those they
feel to be close to them.
The seventh weird habit of an INFJ is They can really hide their nervousness.
INFJs can make it appear as if everything is good and dandy on the outside while battling
on the inside, and they can also mask their introverted anxiety while in social circumstances.
Some people are startled to learn that the INFJ they know is actually an introvert.
This is because an INFJ understands human behavior and how to have a proper social interaction,
so they know what to do to appear liked and confident.
On the inside, they may be feeling overwhelmed, uncomfortable, and uninterested, but they
are capable of making it appear as if they are completely energetic, joyful, and eager
to socialize on the outside. Of course, some INFJs are more introverted
than others, and this is dependent on the social setting.
The number 6 weird habit that no one understands is They can dissociate from reality by thinking
too deeply It's no surprise that the INFJ spends a lot
of time in their head, but how can INFJs appear to be such good listeners when they spend
so much time thinking? While INFJs can choose to be good listeners
when they want to, they can also easily drift off into their minds' inner workings.
INFJs can dissociate their minds from the duties that their bodies are accountable for,
whether it's while performing routine tasks or doing something as basic as driving to
work. They may even become sidetracked during a
discussion because they are too preoccupied with finding solutions in their brains.
While it may not be clear from the outside, INFJs can be deep in thought and appear perfectly
focused.

The fifth weird INFJ habit no one understands is They have their guard up 90% of the time
INFJs are far more private than most people believe.
In fact, while being introverted, INFJs have an extra layer of reluctance when it comes
to communicating their own ideas. Not only are INFJs used to feeling misunderstood
because of the way they see the world, but they also don't want to burden people with
their baggage. INFJs like to be the ones who help rather
than those who are helped. So, no matter how well someone believes they
know an INFJ, there's always more to learn. Even so, an INFJ will never reveal their own
secrets.
Coming in at number 4 on today’s list is They have fantasized about strangers.
INFJs are enthusiastic people who enjoy imagining potential future possibilities.
As a result, when they are attracted to someone, they can easily visualize potential future
possibilities with that person using only their imagination.
While some INFJ fantasies may be sexual in nature, this personality type is more concerned
with things like how their parents would respond if they met this person, how great life would
be financially, how great of a father or mother they would be, and things like that.
They may even obsess on the idea of who they think someone is before getting to know them,
only to be disappointed when this person does not live up to the idealized picture the INFJ
created in their own heads. Ironically, it is this rich imagination that
makes it difficult for an INFJ to settle down in the first place.
Starting our top 3 weird habits of INFJs is They hold back a lot of what they want to
say. This inquisitive personality type is continuously
evaluating and sensing the energy of their surroundings.
In fact, it's safe to assume that most personality types don't spend nearly as much analyzing
as the INFJ, therefore the INFJ notices things that others would ordinarily overlook.
INFJs know things that others don't, which may make situations stressful and unpleasant
because this introverted personality is torn between saying anything and risks being misunderstood
for their intentions, or hanging back and letting the situation work itself out.
Because the INFJ is so empathetic to others, they normally keep their mouths closed to
avoid hurting anyone's feelings or stirring up a pot that shouldn't be meddled with.
While it may not be obvious from the outside, if an INFJ knows something that others do
not, they are most likely screaming inside, wanting to tell someone.

The number 2 weird habit of INFJs is that They sometimes don’t understand themselves.
INFJS can appear to have their entire life worked out when, in reality, they are just
as confused as everyone else. Although most INFJs would rightly argue that
they have a better knowledge of the purpose of life experiences and the lessons we're
here to learn, they still struggle with the role of a successful person on Earth.
INFJs frequently struggle to understand themselves as a whole, including their feelings and long-term
aspirations.
Despite asking themselves all the introspective life questions, INFJs sometimes don't know
if where they are in life is where they need to be, if who they're with is who they're
intended to be with and if they're making the correct steps towards the future that
they're not sure about. INFJs are quite clear about what they don't
want, yet knowing what they do want might be harder.
Topping today’s list and coming in at the number 1 weird habit of INFJs that no one
understands is They can be secretly obsessed with bettering themselves.
INFJs may appear to have everything going their way at times, but what most people don't
realize is that this is far from the case. This perfectionist personality type is always
striving for self-improvement, and while their path may change depending on their objective,
they are always on it. They may appear to be entirely at ease in
their own skin, but on the inside, they are quite demanding of themselves in terms of
health and fitness. Or, they may appear to be content with their
high-paying but stressful job when, in reality, every night when they go home, they are looking
for something better. INFJs always have something up their sleeves,
which can be both a positive and negative attribute depending on how easy they are on
themselves. Most people have no idea how high the expectations are for most INFJs.
INFJs can appear or act awkwardly at times, although this is often due to their exceptional
sense of intuition and empathy. They are able to see things that others miss or fail to
identify, which makes the environment stressful and often uncomfortable for them. Having to
decide whether or not to speak out about what they observe, or whether to keep it to themselves
because most people won't understand anyhow.

and have one of the rarest personalities on earth.
