ENFJ and INFP

ENFJs and INFPs are highly compatible and often have great chemistry together. They are both Idealists (NF), and they have a lot in common. To begin with, they connect in a similar way:

• They both prioritize their deeply held values.
• They both seek emotional connection.
• They are both authentic and don’t like to play games.
• They both have excellent communication skills and are likely to discuss everything.

The INFP is attracted to the ENFJ’s energy, optimism, and positive attitude, while the ENFJ is drawn to the INFP’s deep and thoughtful nature. Both types are honest and are likely to do all the right things to fall in love with each other.

How to make an INFP fall in love

There is a lot of information on the INFP personality type on this website. You can find a detailed INFP profile here, including dating and relationships, and more information here on how to make your INFP happy.

To make an INFP fall in love with you, you need to be genuine. Remember: there are very few things the INFP dislikes more than phony people.

With an INFP, you do not have to be pretentious or stylish or worry too much about how you come across. All you need to do is be yourself — the real you.

Fortunately for the ENFJ, they do not really know any other way. ENFJs could not lie even if they tried, so naturally, the INFP is attracted to their authenticity and honesty.

That said, the INFP does not fall in love easily. They have an ideal vision for everything, and that includes their potential partners. Finding someone who can live up to that standard is not easy, and even then, the INFP may have second thoughts.

To make an ENFJ fall in love, you need to allow them to express their affection and take a sincere interest in them and in what matters to them.

In personal relationships, ENFJs look for the ultimate romance. They want candlelit dinners, flowers, and meaningful gifts. They have an idealized view of relationships, and they also tend to idealize their partner and fall in love with that idealized version.

How to tell if an INFP likes you

INFPs are very selective about whom they allow into their private world, and it takes a long time to get to know them. They are reserved about their feelings and often seem dark and mysterious, which makes them even more attractive.

When INFPs meet someone they like, they usually try to act friendly just to see if the person reciprocates. Because they are extremely sensitive to rejection, they will only make a move if they see that the other person is interested too.

The INFP has high standards when it comes to potential partners, and it may take a long time before they meet that special person. Once they do, they will go the extra mile to make sure they both have a beautiful dating experience.

Despite the INFP’s spontaneous nature, when it comes to dates and special occasions, they often take time to plan things and pay attention to aesthetics and tiny details.

How to tell if an ENFJ likes you

ENFJ and INFP: The Downsides

On the negative side, an ENFJ and INFP relationship is not without problems. Conflicts may arise for several reasons:

• They have different energy levels, with the ENFJ being more energetic and active than the INFP.
• The ENFJ likes to plan things in advance, while the INFP wants to keep their options open.
• The INFP needs space and may feel smothered by the ENFJ.
• The INFP is naturally messy, and the ENFJ may feel left with a disproportionate amount of household chores.
• Because the ENFJ is naturally active and tries to do many things at once, they may come across as bossy and controlling.
• Both may avoid confrontation, allowing their issues to escalate even further.

Despite these downsides, ENFJs and INFPs are highly compatible with each other. If they can work through their little differences and respect each other’s needs, they can make a strong couple, get married, and stay together for years.
