An INFJ friend whose natural approach to such things is entirely different from mine wanted me to do a show-and-tell for him about the objectivist-leaning way I 'armchair' type people in my mind. So, for the sake of long-distance discussion, I picked a 'case study' video of a celebrity I just _knew_ (and have also verified to the best of my abilities with reference to positive indications vs. contraindications checklists of mine) is a fellow ENFP, interviewing another celebrity widely thought to be an INFJ. (See link to interview below.)
Then I yakked on to my friend for an insanely long time about everything I saw in the first 2 mins of their interactions in that doc, and what I inferred from it. This became a VERY informal exploration of ENFP and INFJ intra- an interpersonal dynamics, with reference to the dominant and auxiliary cognitive functions of each.
He found it very helpful. Maybe some other people who don't think like ENFPs will too. We'll see!
