Tips: Some Things You May Relate To If You Have Ni Introverted Intuition As Your Dominant Cognitive Function - If You're INTJ Or INFJ

💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful 
📑 Some strange things you may relate to if you have Ni (introverted intuition) as your dominant cognitive function (if your MBTI personality type is INFJ or INTJ): 
1] In some gatherings or situations where you must interact with other individuals, you sometimes feel or imagine as though you're in a prank TV episode or social experiment show with surveillance gadgets around. If somebody mistreats you or shows any sign of disrespect, you visualize them as lousy actors who were given instructions by an insecure outsider to annoy you for the sake of seeing you overreact. In many cases you'd respond in a way that won't give your opponents the satisfaction of witnessing you acting provoked emotionally. As Muslims Alhamdulillah we strive to avoid behaving in ways that would entertain shaytan and his misguided allies.
2] Most "surprises" can't really surprise you, since (with Allah's Will) you recognize patterns and have an uncanny ability (with intuition gifted by Allah the Most Wise) to guess people's probable motives behind a lot of their actions. 
3] You can usually sense how a person actually feels about you, despite the facial gestures and body language signals they attempt to make. With guidance from Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala, you're capable of determining if somebody is telling facts, being untruthful, or if they're the kind of acquaintance who'll disappoint you numerous times in the future and you're unsurprised by their unreliability. 
4] With Allah's Will, a lot of your dreams actually come true. 
5] When someone whom you truly love for Allah's sake misbehaves, upsets you or acts illogically, it's easy for you to analyze all the possible reasons behind why they may be acting weird, so you're able to forgive them readily. To you, there's a difference between a friend who mistreats you because they don't like you back in reality and a loved one who may occasionally upset you because some nosy outsiders, who envy your connection, are the ones compelling them to treat you wrongly or they're struggling with lots of difficulties which deter them from behaving decently. 
6] When given multiple choices to choose from, you can decisively pick the option which you believe is the most effective, meaningful and rewarding for you, without remorse, even if what you selected may have its disadvantages, particularly if you always trust that Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala only grants you what He knows is beneficial for your soul. 
7] With Ni (introverted intuition) as your dominant cognitive function, you're not very observant with all of the details of your surroundings most of the time. Generally you focus on the big picture, listen to the main points of a lengthy discussion and tend to jump to conclusions when you're stressed out. 
Although we've made mistakes and misjudgements in the past, Alhamdulillah we have learned so much from them and still continue learning.

Tips: Red Flags Of Toxic Friendships And Signs Of A Real "Frenemy"

💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful 

📑 Red flags of toxic friendships and signs that somebody isn't a real friend but an enemy in disguise or "frenemy", despite their rehearsed smiles, jokes and willingness to join you on outings: 
1] They easily tease and laugh at you yet ironically get offended when you joke about them. 
2] They don't seem genuinely interested or concerned whenever you share some news and info about yourself with them yet they expect you to be attentive when they're bragging or complaining to you about an issue. 
3] They have an awful obsession with gossiping, fault-finding and acting as if they're completely flawless. It can be a challenge to act naturally around them because you're worried they may criticize, belittle or embarrass you at any moment. 
4] Ever since you first met, they haven't actually been helpful, inspiring and supportive. You feel like you're only wasting time and energy whenever you unwillingly interact with them. 
5] If you were to count the number of times they initiated conversations with you online and face to face, you'd realize that you're mostly the one reaching out and putting effort in maintaining the connection. 
6] You're more joyful and at ease when they're absent than when they're around. You don't miss them when they've been away for several weeks, as their vibes and overall presence make you very uncomfortable or unsure of yourself. 
7] Even if you exchange salaams and handshakes occasionally, a lot of your dialogues are unpleasantly awkward and several times they've indicated they're untrustworthy, so you can never entrust them with anything. 
Once you've discovered that someone doesn't deserve your trust and loyalty, minimize unimportant interactions with them for Allah's sake to preserve your faith/Imaan and emotional well-being, while still treating them with common courtesy.
