[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, INFJ. I was a teacher for many years. I enjoyed many aspects about it, was a good teacher, but always knew I was in the wrong field- teaching is very intrusive- you are "on" al day, no time to regroup, always have to present a facade, no private time, exhausting emotionally. Plus, in order to be a team player and play the game, there's a lot of sucking up and alliance with fad programs and ideas. INFJs can't stand fake anything.,

What I should have been was a journalist, writer, or lawyer- such as an immigration lawyer, or similar, not a criminal or a lot of time in the court room

I am an introvert- but I am  social. I like small groups, love my friends and family. My antennae, though,  can pick up a liar, or someone's true  intentions within seconds. I can tell a lot about a person in first impressions.[/quote]

Exactly. INFJ can't make up their mind for anything. Their love of learning and taking an interest in all subjects makes them undecided and further procrastinates what career they could really be happy in. I am an intelligence analyst but still seeking purpose. It doesn't help that this area is so expensive and learning a new subject to make a career of can take a longer time. I have loved reading and writing since I was 4 yrs old though. In my late 30s I feel I could be too old for another career that isn't in demand or has purpose. [/quote]

My God, you have just described me.  I’m a former intelligence analyst, now SAHM.  Incredible similarities.

+1 You totally nailed it. I'm a married SAHM but I was in advertising/social media and hated all the fakery and self-importance. I would love to become a researcher or writer but feel like I'm too far into my career to completely start over. I'm very shy/reserved when I first meet people but if I get a good feeling off of them, I open up and am very warm. Over the years, people have often "joked" that, at first, they thought I was a bitch and how shocked they were that I'm actually a nice person. As for romantic relationships, I was definitely a late bloomer and sort of had to force myself out of my shell to actually go on dates. [/quote]
