INFJ Problems

What can I do to open up? I feel like I’m in a shell when I am with more than 2 or max 3 people, so how can I improve on acting more socially I know if I can build somewhat deep raport with more than 2-3 people I could be more confident and more persuasive, so can someone help me please :)?

- Submission is edited for clarity. It’s probably equally challenging for both the introvert to open up with more people as it is for an extrovert to engage in not-so-shallow conversations one-on-one with another. I know I’ve faced this problem in college; I’m still also rather unwilling to open up much when I’m in a group of people. Perhaps the thing that holds us back is our longing to sort what information goes to what people. Some people we’re okay with telling things and only want to tell them when we have their complete attention. Being in a social circle is almost the opposite - everyone is telling a little about themselves at the same time. I’d suggest not feeling discomfort if you continue to be the quiet one in the group; when you do speak then, people will listen, especially if you speak with a tone of depth. Once you’ve done this, anytime you choose to speak up, you will probably have grounds to be confident and persuasive.

Just my thoughts - take them as you will, I definitely don’t claim to be an expert in this. :P

Again I want to apologize, I’m in a place that will likely have very little internet for the next week or so and I’m still busy. I am getting your submissions and I haven’t forgotten about this blog… actually feeling pretty guilty for not holding this “responsibility” very well by not posting frequently! Thanks for your understanding. 

I’m going to be away for a couple days - sorry I haven’t been getting to submissions very often, I haven’t forgotten, I’m just sort of in a process of moving right now and am pretty busy. Thanks for your patience if you submitted something and are still waiting to see it, I haven’t let you guys slip my mind.
