Here’s How Easily You Say “I Love You,” Based on Your Personality Type
While telling someone you love them is important for some people, others can feel nervous about this step. Even if they feel it strongly inside, sometimes expressing their feelings verbally can be difficult. Here is how easily you say the words “I love you,” to someone, based on your personality type.
INFJ
For INFJs sharing their affection is important, especially with the people closest to them. When the INFJ reaches that point with someone where they have a special place in their heart, they don’t want those feelings to go unshared. They want to be sure that they tell the people they care for that they truly love them, since they know that life can be fleeting. INFJs want to be sure that their loved ones are aware of their affections, and fear it not being truly known. They might be afraid of going without saying these words, and in some cases they might even say it fairly often. INFJs don’t use those words lightly though, and will only speak them when they are absolutely sure of their feelings.
ENFJ
ENFJs often believe that saying “I love you,” it actually very important. They want their loved ones to feel cared for and adored, and so they won’t hesitate to express their feelings towards them. When the ENFJ loves someone they will do just about anything for them, and they want people to be aware of this. ENFJs aren’t afraid of saying those three little words when they are sure of their feelings. They don’t want to go without expressing their affections, and can be afraid that people don’t feel truly appreciated in the way that they should.
INFP
INFPs can be nervous when it comes to saying “I love you” at first and might be a bit hesitant. The fear of being vulnerable can be difficult when they first start feeling a certain way towards someone. Once the INFP overcomes the hurdle and the words are spoken, they will find it important to say it often. They might not come out and express their love easily at first, but eventually it will be difficult to contain. INFPs do want their loved ones to know how they feel about them, and don’t want to let time go by without having these people be sure about their love and sincerity.
ENFP
ENFPs can be nervous to express their love at first, especially when they are in front of that special someone. While it is important to them to say “I love you” to the people around them, it can be something that makes them feel a bit too vulnerable. ENFPs will likely be the one to say it first in most relationships, but only because it often slips out without them intending for this to happen. When they feel strongly it can be hard for them to contain it, even if their anxiety is telling them to be quiet. ENFPs do want to tell people that they love them, and believe it is important to express this somewhat often.
INTJ
INTJs might have a hard time saying “I love you,” and will feel like they want to be completely sure before expressing something like this. They are rarely the ones to express their feelings first, if at all. INTJs keep to themselves most of the time and don’t find it comfortable to dive into their own emotions constantly. For INTJs expressing their affections is done in more practical or logical ways, and saying these words can be a bit challenging for them. When the INTJ is sure of their feelings they will likely wait for the other person to express their love first, and then they will likely feel more at ease expressing themselves. INTJs can often be more interested in actions rather than words in order to express their feelings.
ENTJ
ENTJs aren’t the most emotionally expressive people and can find it difficult to say certain things. Telling someone they love them can be challenging for the ENTJ, especially in the earlier stages of these emotions. ENTJS might want to be sure the other person is completely committed before articulating any declarations of love towards them. They simply want to be sure that the relationship is going in the right direction before they open themselves up in such a vulnerable manner. While ENTJs don’t mind saying those particular words first, they want to be sure that they can trust this individual completely.
INTP
INTPs can definitely find it challenging to say “I love you” to someone, even if they feel it strongly. They don’t put themselves in emotionally vulnerable situations easily, and often try to avoid this level of anxiety. While INTPs might be aware of their love for someone, expressing it outwardly is an entirely different story. They often wait for the other person to express their feelings first, before taking that leap. When the INTP does receive a declaration of affections, they will often reciprocate their feelings verbally even if it is difficult. It can be hard for them to say “I love you” first even after a long time has passed, but that does not mean they do not feel it.
ENTP
ENTPs can struggle with saying “I love you” at first, but they can often overcome this. They are spontaneous and outgoing people who aren’t afraid to take a few chances in life. While they want to be sure of their feelings before expressing anything openly, ENTPs will often find the courage to express themselves. When they know they truly love someone they often want to make this known, especially if they feel those emotions are reciprocated. ENTPs might not be completely comfortable with emotions, but deep down they enjoy the thrill and uneasiness.
ISTJ
ISTJs definitely don’t express emotions easily, and have a hard time being vulnerable. They might find it easier to say “I love you,” to their family members than they do a romantic partner. It can take some time for them to become comfortable with expressing these words to their loved ones. Once the ISTJ does start expressing their love for someone, it can become more comfortable for them. They are creatures of habit and do best once they have adjusted to something new. While ISTJs aren’t the most expressive people, they can certainly share these words with someone they have been with for a while.
ESTJ
ESTJs might have a hard time saying “I love you,” especially in the beginning of a relationship. They likely express it to their family members easily, since it doesn’t really leave them feeling vulnerable to do this. Expressing their love to a romantic partner is something that might take them a bit of time to adjust to. Once the ESTJ is committed and sure of their feelings, they can certainly say “I love you” freely. It might not be something they express constantly, but will be easier if it becomes a bit of a habit for them.
ISFJ
ISFJs definitely believe it is important to say “I love you” to the people in their lives. They want their loved ones to know how much they care and sometimes this requires verbal reiteration. ISFJs enjoy being able to express their love for the people closest to them, and don’t want things to go left unsaid. ISFJs don’t mind being the first to say these words in most cases, since they want it to be known. They go above and beyond to prove their love for others, and will do whatever it takes to make them happy.
ESFJ
ESFJs definitely believe that saying “I love you” is important, but they can struggle when it comes to romantic relationships. While they likely express their feelings for their family and friends freely, romance can be a bit different. They might feel nervous about saying it first, since they don’t want to put any pressure on their partner. ESFJs just don’t enjoy being vulnerable in this way, and feeling like they might be rejected. Rejection is actually very difficult for ESFJ and can be something they struggle with. When it comes to saying “I love you” it can take time for the, but once they are comfortable it becomes a frequent expression.
ISTP
ISTPs can struggle when it comes to emotional expression and might not want to say the words “I love you” quickly. They want to be sure of their feelings before declaring them to someone else, which can take some time. ISTPs don’t really express themselves verbally to others, and often prefer to keep their feelings to themselves. While it might be challenging they don’t want do harm their relationship by holding back for too long, even if they are having a hard time finding the way to express these words. ISTPs will eventually find a way to say “I love you” especially if they believe the other person will reciprocate.
ESTP
ESTPs can find it difficult to say “I love you” in a romantic relationship, but they often find the courage somehow. They don’t want their loved ones to feel unappreciated and actually enjoy letting them know how they feel. While vulnerability can frighten the ESTP, they try hard to overcome these fears for the sake of their relationships. They want their loved ones to be fully aware of how much they care and just how they would do for them. Once the ESTP feels comfortable with these words, they might actually enjoy being able to say “I love you” to someone special.
ISFP
For ISFPs saying “I love you” often comes naturally and easily. They believe in being open with their loved ones and don’t want to hold back out of fear. While ISFPs don’t enjoy feeling rejected, it is actually more difficult for them to keep their feelings inside. When the ISFP cares for someone they want to make this known to the world, and don’t want to hesitate when it comes to something so important. The ISFP won’t overthink their feelings and instead will follow the guide of their heart.
ESFP
ESFPs do say “I love you” freely to the people closest to them, and prefer expressing this openly. They don’t want to feel hesitant out of fear and prefer to live their lives with a sense of freedom and openness. When the ESFP cares for someone they want that person to be fully aware of their feelings, and they want to feel it reciprocated. They won’t hold themselves back because they are nervous, and instead allow their feeling to guide them in the right direction.
